So today was my last day up in Bolton with Alex and we woke up friggen hung over!! Oh man were we hung over!! The firs thing I usually do after a night out of drinking is make sure that I have my camera with me. And to look at the pictures of course! Well I only brought out money and my camera and I had them both in my jacket pocket. When I went to check my jacket my camera was not there!!! I started freaking out! I think I woke up Alex a little abruptly but I was going mental and I was really upset because this would be my second time I have broke/lost a camera due to alchohol (I really should just learn my lesson eh?)...Alex the nice guy that he is wasn't helping me look for the camera he was just laughing at me when I was freaking out and tearing my side of the room apart. He swore that he didn't have it but then I went over to his side of the room and it was in his shoe...how it got there I don't know but I guess it's safe to say that he did in fact have it last night. Which would also explain the very last picture of the night which is of me at some unknown location which he must of took even though we both don't remember. So thank God I had my camera and all was better. Then we went downstairs to have breakfast which we didn't really eat as we weren't feeling too hot. We just stayed in the room until 11am when we had to check out and then we walked around town. Went to the mall and went into Primark but I wasn't too interested in anything. Walked around a whole bunch of random stores and I went into a Thomas Cook centre to enquire about flights to Vancouver for Christmas. Then we decided to go to Morrisons to get some food for the bus ride home for me and while we were there we just started buying a ton of food to eat because we felt like it haha.Then we walked and we went to some church and sat in the garden/yard and ate. Can't really remember what we did after that but we just hung around more and then eventually I had to leave to go to Manchester so Alex walked me back to Bolton station so I could catch the train to Manchester. I was a little bit early for the bus but no worries. The bus was another 5 hours back to London but I was really getting into my book so it went really quickly. And we even had a pit stop for some candy hehe. All in all was a pretty good weekend up in Botlon/Manchester and thanks to Alex for letting me stay with him! :)

So this weekend was a bank long weekend and Alex invited me to come up to Manchester (well really Bolton which is part of greater Manchester) to hang out and have a good time. Monday is the day we get off but since I have 4 days left of holiday to take before the end of June I decided to take the Friday off as well. That way I would have lots of time to get up there. I booked another lovely mega bus bus trip...couldn't get it as cheap as we did to Cardiff but it was only 20 pounds for a return ticket so not too bad at all. Left London at 12pm for a very long 5 hour bus ride! Wasn't too bad though because I had a good book to read and I finally got a new pair of headphones so I had my MP3 player to listen to again. I got to Manchester just after 5 and sent Alex a message to let him know that I was there so he could give me directions on how to get to Bolton. Well after 20 minutes I still hadn't heard from him and was just chilling out in the bus station and started to get a bit concerned. So I gave him a ring and he was SLEEPING! haha what a guy eh? No worries though, he told me to go to Piccadilly station (I noticed all the names of streets and stations are the same as streets in London lol) and then to get a train to Bolton. So eventually I did that and got my ticket and waited for the train and all that jazz and made it to Bolton. Alex met me at the station and then we went to the hotel to drop off my bag and stuff. We were planning on going to see a movie tonight and I really wanted to see that movie "Three and Out" so we headed to the movie theatre. After about a half hour walk we get to the theatre and it turns out that movie isn't even playing there! Ah well...we didn't want to see anything else so we went over to the bar and had a beer. Then we went to Frankie and Benny's I think it's called and had dinner. Had this awesome pizza with goats cheese on it which was really delicious. We were gonna go out for some drinks but then decided against it as we had to be up really early to go to Alton Towers theme park the next morning so we just went back to the hotel and watched some TV and then went to sleep!
