A Graduation trip to Sheffiled

Today, I went on a small trip to Sheffield. My friend invited me along to their graduation and it was surprisingly good fun! I was told before hand it might be boring but how wrong we all were! Professor the Lord Winston was there and I had the privilege to sit on my friends cap!

The move from Brighton

Over the weekend, I went down to Brighton for one last final visit. My friends down there were moving out so I happily went down to help them.

Of course, it was another long journey and well, we needed a break so Costa coffee it was!

After the very long journey I did what I could to help with the packing. Later, we went to a vegetarian cafe called Iydea. It was delicious and incredibly filling!

When we were back at the flat, we carried on packing and cleaning. My friend had an out of date egg so we left it outside for a fox... nothing came unfortunately and it wouldn't surprise us if the egg was still there!

In the morning, after a late night, I carried on cleaning...

...and I even had fun doing the washing up. All those bubbles!

Eventually, everything was loaded into the van and we left Brighton for the final time. Another long journey was ahead of us and we all were glad for Costa's along the way!

Here is me with a variety coffee forest!

Yum!

We were thankful to be home and safe, with no accidents or breakages. Bed at last!

Crich Tramway Village

I went on my second visit to Crich Tramway Village. It was the very last day of the season and the museum will not be open again till March 28th 2015.

It was quite a chilly day but completely worth while!

I rode on the Berlin 223 006-4 tram...

I know it looks like I'm hijacking it but I thought I would try the seat out for size. I think I'm a little bit too small...
I even got some lovely views of the sunset.

And there was even a silver band playing which was fantastic to hear!

As the evening progressed, the lights on the Blackpool 167 were turned on and it was generally incredible to see the village lit up by the sun!

It was a wonderful day out and in total, I travelled 8 miles by tram! I rode on 4 trams in total; Leeds 345...

Berlin 223 006-4, Leeds 399...

...and the Blackpool 167 (as seen above).

I am certainly looking forward to my visit next year!

Fossil hunting at Cayton Bay

Today, I went fossil hunting at Cayton Bay, south of Scarborough. That section of the coastline is full of fossils dating back to the Jurassic.

I saw loads of dinosaur footprints!

And fossilised leaves too...

And a field of Canada Geese...

But that's a whole other story!
