Happy birthday to the lovely girfan!
Been a quiet week here under UK skies so far this week. Took a couple of days to get my sleep patterns back and we spent our time together. Popped out for a few groceries and to see his dad of course. His dad is doing pretty well though it will take awhile before he's really back to full form, and maybe he won't be completely but he will get stronger and more mobile. We're going to a movie later this aft, Cowboys and Aliens and going into the city centre to poke around in some of the shops and have some lunch first. Graham is over at his dad's at the moment but should be back soon and we'll head out. No car this time, we're dependent on the bus schedules this week. Tomorrow I think we're going to check out the massive Manchester Museum at the university. It's apparently quite good and I can't imagine why i've not got there yet after all these visits but we just never got around to it. Tomorrow night it's a chinese buffet out with our gang :) and then Saturday, all too soon, is our last full day together. Not looking forward to the Air Transat flight back but that's the way it is. If i'd booked Air Canada they would having flying this way and that all over creation rather than the usual Halifax-Heathrow-Manchester. One had me going to Toronto then to Newark and then to Manc. and another route was to Heathrow, then to bloody Munich and back to Manchester if you please. tsk. But being as it was almost last minute, i guess you take what you can. I think i'd avoid Transat again though as it was a bit cramped for me.
Weather has mostly been pretty good other than a grim yesterday. I think the next few days will be showery though. That's pretty much normal. I should take some photos in the city center with a blue sky so i can prove i do see it here sometimes!
