I woke up suprisingly warm, the couch makes such a nice microclimate.
Breakfast of tea, and toast followed by an excuse to go shopping. I needed ear buds, and my own pair of wellingtons when I need to head to Scotland. As luck would have it, the Millets outdoors store that was going out of business.. still had loads of wellingtons for sale at incredibly low prices. ^_^
We stopped by the enclosed market so Gog and Nine could look at synth parts and 30+ year old electronic pieces while I got my pair of buds. We then looked at these parts for another half an hour or so but Nine did get an awesome picture of the market... visible here... *finally founds it again*

Ill be learning this site tonight if I get the chance so that I may hurry and upload the pictures I am getting. I expect within a month I shall have gotten more pictuers of the local sights such as Cardiff and Raglan castle, the local museum, a nice hudge garden I saw yesterday, and of course my WWOOF farm.
After these we headed back to have lunch and hang around for a few hours. I got to relax with some music and prepared for dinner. Which would be the national dish of Britain.
After watching my favorite show (which had its time changed recently to air just before dinner so nicely,) we found a restaurant about 15 minutes away and walked out to find that it was full. (A large international rugby match happened today and since Wales won.. most places were full in celebration.) The similar resturant down the street was also full... so we went back to the first, got some take away and headed home to watch Life of Brian while eating the national dish... Tikka Masala. ^_^
Tikka Masala is an Indian type of dish invented in the UK much like Nacho's and Fortune Cookies were invented in the US. Its very mild and semi sweet for a curry and is usually served with lamb or chicken as its meat.
I again fell asleep while watching a movie and managed to spend some time this morning catching up.
Have a wonderful day everybody!
sounds like an exciting time you are having over there :D
