A picture post finally!! I think it’s gonna be a long one so embrace yourself!
As of now, I am mentally exhausted and i feel like just blogging away and upload whatever pictures that i never get the chance to put up! My next paper is this coming tuesday and i just want to get it over and done with! So here’s some pictures of our trip to London *counting fingers* 2 years ago. Did not edit them nor did I put any watermark whatsoever because if i do, it prolly gonna take me another 2 years to get it done!
The smallest tv ever. This is meant for one person.only. Im not even joking. But hey, when you’re on holiday, why bother watching tv?
Since this is our first time overseas, i think our my main highlight is shopping. Obviously we don’t have these bargains back home. But to be honest, i came out from these shops with massive headache because there’s TOO MANY going on! The hustling and the tugging and the picking and trying. Insanity. But worth it.
Everyone’s favourite store! For me definitely. Ever since I knew the existence of Primark, i get curious if they ever have a online website or something. Then I found out they don’t. Simply because in the UK, Primark is a clothing retailers that caters to low income families. Everything sold there is extremely affordable that you will need at least TWO shopping baskets for your loots!
Now, few facts about Primark, which also I found out after I did few research and readings. Primark is a subsidiary company of Associated British Foods (ABF). And what is ABF you ask? Simple, ABF is just a huge food company which started from…..
……………………..wait for it………………..

A SMALL BISCUIT SHOP by a canadian businessman. Interesting right? Now Primark has become a subsidiary company which is giving back to it’s people. Im not even sure if they get any profits because the stuffs are so dirt cheap!! You can get a good pair of shoes for just £4. Even after conversion, it is still cheap!
We rented a car and had few mini road trips to the cities from Sunderland to Newcastle, Durham, Manchester, Liverpool, York and London (in no particular order). Only one two word, CAR SICK! Man, the worst experience ever. I dont think I can survive anymore road trips if its more than 2 hours. I think we drove like 5 hours from one end to the other end it almost drives me crazy. Alternative, put me in a spacious car, I’ll be fine. Small car, oh please god help me.
This was in London and oh how i love the buildings. But not the city or the subway. I think i prefer the smaller cities.
Where we stayed throughout of road trips. I would recommend this place if you’re looking for something simple and within your budget. But if you’re looking for bed&breakfast, this won’t be it. I think it’s nice to have a place which provides breakfast because its easier that way. By the time you’re out, you can start planning your day ahead and not worrying find a place to have your breakfast/brunch.
Check out those dry lips. Man they were cracking for the entire week we were there!
And of course, an ugly picture of yours truly sleeping in the car.
Our my acquisition which leaves us speechless because back home we never shop that much. But they were all bargains so feeling guilty no more :p
I think this is in Liverpool, the birth place of The Beatles. Mum and I did not went into the museum obviously we’re not a fan. Not even to go in and have a look. Did I regret till this day? Nah. Glad i didnt make that decision.
Now i can say, “Been there!” My next wish, to actually watch the real match albeit knows not a clue of football or the players. The time we got here, the weather was super cold and it drizzled! Next time, get a wind breaker lady!
Hmmm i cant seem to remember where this was. But all these statue were interesting to look at. Minus the nudity, sorry guys.
One of the room where they held prisoners and im telling ya, i didnt like the energy in that room. Creepy.
In fact, looking at the picture alone gives me chills.
This was in Durham. We went to the Durham castle and it was hauntingly beautiful! I would love to go back there again.
Hokay, i think that is all for now. Thanks for actually reading this! You’re such an awesome reader
Now back to mugging. Or maybe not. Or maybe yes. Ta!
