a new leaf



I really should be better than this. I only started this blog about three weeks ago and I'm already down to one post a week. Pathetic.
I guess the crux of the problem is that now that I'm back in Manchester (or thereabouts) I actually have friends to talk to, TV to watch and pubs that I can afford to drink in - read this and weep my Norwegian friends... one pint, one bottle of Corona, one brandy and coke, two cokes, all for barely a shade over 8 quid - about 90 krone.
Anyway, I've not got much to say now, but I just thought I'd try and post something to show willingness (and to show off this lovely leaf from Lymm Dam, mmm).

Before I go I should also stress that I'm not a real stingy bastard that's only concern in life is logging the price of everything. That said it is difficult, nay an impossibility, to come from any other country to Norway and not be hit square in the nuts by the staggering cost of absolutely everything.
It's a beautiful country, with lovely people, but that certainly comes at a price. A great big scary one.

Hugs etc,

Team Me

  22. The other day, while I was at work, my cousin stole my apple ipad and tested to


    see if it can survive a 30 foot drop, just so
    she can be a youtube sensation. My iPad is now destroyed and she has 83
    views. I know this is completely off topic but I

    had to share it with someone!
