Carina hated it from start to finish.
Hello guys!
Yes it's really cold & when I first go out It was WOW! My husband was laughing at me. Lol. I had to put on 2 jackets,coat, boots and beanie
Whereabouts- we're a bit geeky so I asked my hubby to take me to jodrell bank, since we both love astrology
Shopping in trafford center is great as wellbig difference when it comes to shops, buildings and i also find the packaging of goods In Tescos very different from what I'm used to..
We have lots of places to go in the next few months, I'm still enjoying my new home, my loving hubby & we are cooking food for each other, Asian & European cuisine at home is really awesome
I find out that British people are really friendly and helpful.. At the airport, a nice woman called my hubby to tell him I touchdown and waiting for him in gate 2.. People always smile and greet me in our neighborhood.. When shopping, people stare at me and sometimes make me feel like I'm a foreigner (well I am) lol but my husband experience that in the Philippines as well so now I know the feeling. All in all UK is a very beautiful country!
Oh, milk in tea? I love it... When my husband and I talk about our culture it shocks us both, it's really funny. He have a lot of things to learn about Filipino and I'm willing to learn about his culture too. Woohoo!
You must be in Cheshire or Manchester somewhere. The first place I took my wife after she arrived in Manchester was the Trafford Centre to buy some warm clothes.Hello guys!

I took my daughter to Jodrell Bank a good few years ago.
As I read your story, I thought you are in other planet, but ohI read it again and found out you are in UK
.Good thing you did'nt land in london,
been a couple of times to Jodrell bankYou must be in Cheshire or Manchester somewhere. The first place I took my wife after she arrived in Manchester was the Trafford Centre to buy some warm clothes.
only place i want to go, is to see the northern lights
... of Old Aberdeen?
Seen em. Seen Old Aberdeen. My ex gf lived there. Full of students also.... of Old Aberdeen?
unless they look like this... of Old Aberdeen?
Do you know, I spent 5.5 years in Aberdeen and never once saw the Nothern Lights and spent many a year travelling through it and never saw them then either. There is a bar there by that name, I drove by it a million times and I just googled the song that you were probably alluding too, Arthur?... of Old Aberdeen?
"When I was a lad, a tiny wee lad,
My mother said to me,
‘Come see the Northern Lights my boy,
They’re bright as they can be!’
She called them the heavenly dancers,
Merry dancers in the sky,
I’ll never forget, that wonderful sight
They made the heavens bright!"
...... we HAVE our moments ...
... yeuch!...
...
... it's NOT for me!
Hello exquisitegeeks,
Welcome to the UK and the forum. This is by far not the coldest winter I have experienced here so far, so you are quite lucky
Nothing beats the service in Manila, I really miss it a lot. I especially miss the "bagging boys" from SM who will even help you load your groceries to your car.
Anyway there are lots of things to explore here in the UK and I'm sure you will have a fantastic time!
Take care,
Daks
