I have a new addiction-supermarkets! Iceland, Sainsburys, Tescos, Kwik Save, Aldi, the list goes on. This addiction will hopefully replace my other ones fags and beer. I started to take tablets yesterday which will make stop me smoking, they will make me feel sick when smoking and take away the urge, I'll let you know how it goes.
I went out for a few drinks with my cousin last weekend in Liverpool. He took me to the roughest pubs I have ever been to in my life. In one pub which looked just like a house from the outside, 60 % of the clientelle were off their heads on things much stronger than alcohol, and looked as though they had been that way for a number of years. The other 40% were over 60 and looked as though they had been drunk for 50 of those years. I walked in looking quite smart in my teachers blazer, if I hadn't been with my cousin I don't think i would have lasted very long. After visiting a number of slightly better establishments I took the opportunity to do my party piece- House of the rising sun! It was received quite well, I was afraid that I could only sing it in the Old China Hand.
Still haven't found anywhere to live yet. The amount of bureaucracy that needs to completed when arriving from the moon is amazing, I have had to visit at least 2 government offices everyday since i arrived. It is rainy here today and only about 14c, a taste of the autumn to come, oh joy! i have to do this from the library at the moment and hence cannot do as much as I would like.
Waiting at the bus stop yesterday I overheard the following conversation, a Liverpool accent must be used, i will not attempt to try and write one.
Girl 1: How old is he now?
Girl2 : He's nearly 2. I've got another one on the way.
Girl 1: Who's the father?
Girl 2: I'm not sure!
Both girls were only about 19 or 20-Liverpool!!
