General's mad rush for his meal

I took this video this morning of General's usual craziness and mad rush for his food. It is really funny to see him try to sprint towards his food on the tiled floor, which just makes him slide around as he does the big U-turn. He tried to go straight ahead hoping the door would be opened for him. But he realised he had to go the long way so away he went. It really cracks me up!!! hahahaha

We finally had some rice and more authentic (albeit too salty) thai food for lunch. I missed the photo of the phad thai and pineapple rice cos my camera decided to rest for lunch too.

Day 2, 1 April, Friday Whether it was due to jet lag or (and) the powerful heaters in the rooms, corridor and living room, everybody was up by 6 am. All of us had a leisurely breakfast of random things bought the day before. John Gell came by on his way to work and sat with us for 20-30 minutes before he left for work and Eugene and I headed over to Victoria Centre to get a SIM card for me from EE. We then checked out of our apartment and started our drive up to Manchester. We drove through the Peak District and it was really windy and cold! We stopped at one point to admire the scenery and take some shots like this one: Hungry and needing the toilet, we stopped at the Snake Pass Inn, which was randomly on the way. The hot soup, beef pie and really fat chips was immensely satisfying!  We finally reached Manchester and joined up with Denise at Ibis Salford Quays hotel. It was a mad rush thereafter because our Old Trafford stadium tour was set at 2pm but I still...

Tonight's Italian dinner was AWESOME. We finished every single dish we ordered and we had a 2nd portion of their tiramisu!

We left Fort William for a 4-hour drive to Scrabster to catch the ferry to Stromness. Along the way we saw beautiful rainbows and got the experience of driving onto a ferry and seeing more beautiful scenery. God is good!!:)

UK 2016 Day 1 31 Mar - My Nottingham!

It has been 3 years since I last came back to the UK. It has also been a really long time since I took Singapore Airlines too. And I am so impressed by their new system! The big screen is touch screen and they use the Android system:) After the approximately 13 hour flight, we collected our rental car and found our way to the M1 before we made a pit stop because we were all hungry. This is us at Burger King! And I got everyone to drink Costa... Their mocha is SO good:D Over an hour later, we found our way to PTK Luxury Apartments at 101 Cranbrook House along Lower Parliament Street. As we drove our way to the City Centre, we passed by the University Campus and the place where I used to have small group, and I was SO happy. I was even excited over seeing the Orange bus number 36... We walked to the nearby Victoria Centre to buy groceries from the Tesco Metro there. Everybody got pretty excited doing impulsive buys. One very impulsive buy is the GBP2.50 tub of Ben & Jerr...
