Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

Hello again!

I haven't updated, because every time I try I really can't be bothered typing anything, becuase there's just so much to type..

Ok.. so.. where was I, last edit?
Lalalalalaa... *goes off to look*

Yes.. Trocadero. I honestly don't remember when we went there, though &&;

Ah well.. basically we watched the football, and had lunch/dinner with people.
But on our last day in Ivinghoe, which wasn't really in Ivinghoe, we packed up our bags in the morning, and drove to.. some random 'Mother Shipton's cave. She was supposedly a prophet, and she prophesised the end of the world would be when this random bridge fell down for the 3rd time, and it's fallen down twice already, so people put steel reinforcements on it, and stuff xDD

And... yeah. That's mother Shipton


And she has this random wishing well thing in her cavey-place, and to wish you had to stick you hand in this little pool of water, but it had all these rules, like 'you can't wipe your hand to dry it' and 'you can't wish directly for money' xDD
I.. don't remember what I wished for &&;

This is the wishing well ^^


We met up with the Butterworths there - my godmother Rachel, and her husband, and Amy and Lucy. Amy's 15, and Lucy's.... 12, or 13... one of the two &&;
Anyway... we went to the cave together, and went to some random river. The adults had tea there, while James ((my brother)), Amy, Lucy and I went on a row-boat down the river. There were only two paddles, so we made James and Amy row xDD

But it was actually really freaky.. because at the end of the bit of river that we were allowed to row along, there were like.. 8 kids playing. Most of them looked about 7 or 8, but there were two girls that were like.. 15 or something. Anyway.. we started turning around, because we couldn't go any further, when they saw us and threw their tennis balls at us, to try and splash us. One of them actually landed in the boat, though, so we took it because we didn't want them to throw it at us again..

But then they started yelling and throwing sticks/stones/anything else they could find on the floor. It was actually really scary gonk cry
But.. yeah.. the river was kinda wide, so we rowed over to the other side, and away from the people ((back the way we came - up the river)). And then they started chasing us, still throwing the stuff. There was this one point where this kid picked up this MASSIVE stick, and threw it at us. It probably would've really hurt if it hit us, but thankfully he had really bad aim xD

They chased after us for a long time, but then we reached this bank of houses that you can't get past unless they ran away from the river and round loads of houses, and side streets. So they lost interest.

And we still have their tennis ball xDDD

Then went to a pub for lunch. The food there was sooo good, but they watered down the coke so much. And the lemonade &&
And.. yeah..
Then we drove up to Scotland, during the Aus v Italy match, so we didn't get to watch it until we got there, as the people we were staying with taped it for us.
It was SOOO bad! I mean.. it was so pathetic of the Italian guy to do that dive thingo. RRRGH!!!!!! mad mad mad gonk scream crying emo

So.. yeah. We stayed with the Popes ((that's their surname. Pope. xDDD Isn't it such a cool name!? )) for two days. Or maybe it was three.. anyway..
We did.. stuff. Mainly internetted, and slept.

Though.. we did go to some random castle, and looked at it's gardens.

Uhm.. yeah.

Oh! Yes! On our way up to Scotland we went to see one of Mum's friends - Debbie. She's really cool, and she has this awesome dog, who's MASSIVE. Like.. up to my hips kind of massive. And called Lulu.
Lulu's a black great dane, and loves cuddles xDD

... we're going out for dinner now.
I'll be back later
TOODLES! heart

Ok, I'm baaack! heart
Did'ja miss me? xDDD

Aaanyway.. after Scotland we drove down to the Lake District, where my Grandad and uncle live. We're staying in my uncle's B&B place, and... uhm.. he has internet.
That's where I am now.
((If you want me to be specific - http://www.claremont-windermere.co.uk/ is the website of the place. Martin Morris is my uncle *nodnod* xDDD))

That day... we generally just settled in and had dinner with my uncle and his fiance... and.. yeah. We messed around with his internet a lot, and moved his wireless box around so that we could leech off it.

The next day, Debbie arrived, because she's mum's best friend and we only saw her for an hour, so we invited her up to see us while we're here *nodnod*
She came at, like.. 5pm.
Before then.. we went shopping for new shoes for me, because my old ones, the metal that holds up the heel poked through the material, and it made holes in my socks. So I got new shoes. And they're some random posh brand that I've never heard of before, but Dad keeps going on about how 'kids always choose the most expensive runners', but his shoes were like.. £20 more expensive than mine xDD

Theeen we went to my Grandad's house ((*wonders if she could find a picture of it on google* xDD; ))
I can too!
This is my Grandad's house:


It's called Ladywood, and it's the best house ever
It's got three floors ((actual proper floors, not like my one-roomed-atic place, by the way xDD)) and... like.. eight bedrooms, plus a lodge that is let out to tourists.
((webpage for it - http://www.ladywood.ws/index.html)) ((all this internet-searching is fun xDDD))
The house is really cool, but the coolest thing is the gardens. Oh, by the way, it was built by my great-great grandfather or something. How cool is that!? xDDD
Anyway.. the gardens. They're massive, and they back onto a forest. And if the trees weren't in the way, you'd get this awesome view of this really cool river.
If you actually went to the site, there's a picture. But don't believe the site - you can never actually see the river from the lodge - there's too many trees in the way xDD

And.. yeah. We met up with Grandad, and I got my book ((which you would know about if you're a devout reader of my journals xDDD)) and then we went for this drive round the countryside.

But I have to go to bed, so I'll edit this when we get the chance.
Which'll probably be Saturday *nodnod*
Byeee! heart
