amand-r went to the uk: cardiff, day 2

Nov 11, 2010 10:17

Last year, I went to the UK. I went to London, Birmingham and Cardiff, as well as Manchester and Southampton. But I never finished the documentation of that trip, and I feel that I should, since I have two days worth of pics THAT INVOLVE TODAY'S BIRTHDAY BOY, NICHOLAS H. CRUENTUM, DIVA.

I PRESENT, CARDIFF, DAY TWO.

( There are underpants. )

Never thought I'd see the day Nick would flash his boxers at the world, but there you go.

That pink shirt still cracks me up.

And there's the castle that we could not find, despite a map and a car, when we were there last spring. WTH. LOLOL!!

Jack is not listening to us, dammit!!! I so need to finish my own travel posts, don't I. Kinda late though.

Yeah but we would never have found the gorgeous Roath Park, which really was awesome.

jaaaaaaccckkkk why aren't you listening to us?

amand_r November 11 2010, 15:50:58 UTC

This is true. I missed Roath.

It is now canon in my brain that Torchwood has signs.

amand_r November 11 2010, 16:58:40 UTC

THEY TOTALLY DO.

madder_rose November 11 2010, 16:58:54 UTC

JJJAAAAACKKKK.

Signs. Naturally. That's how everyone knows where they live, hide work. :D

amand_r November 11 2010, 17:09:17 UTC

When I went to Cardiff, I spent half the time pointing at things and going "TORCHWOOD! JACK STOOD ON THAT ROOF. ONCE THEY DROVE THE CAR DOWN THIS STREET I THINK."

(My friends spotted the Queens Arcade from Doctor Who, though.)

We spent a while puzzling over the fists-and-rope.

amand_r November 11 2010, 18:25:50 UTC

We went into the Queen street arcade. And Nick is the best tour guide for TW/DW evar. He knows all the locations. I swear.

eldarwannabe November 12 2010, 02:37:36 UTC

That hilarious part is that we had just blown through all of Doctor Who in the two months before we went (I watched TW on my own - my friend was meh.) and we arranged our entire trip to get those 30 hours in Cardiff.

So we weren't yet at that level of prepared.

Also, I'm brand new to this whole fandom, so I'm apparently the only one who doesn't know Nick yet? I do wish him the best of luck with JB, though. :)

amand_r November 12 2010, 14:53:49 UTC

Oh lol. Nick is Cruentum. He's. He's special.

I went to Hub 3 just for an excuse to go to the UK (or was it the other way around?). anyway, while I was there, I made the best of the astronomical airfare by staying for two weeks and training around the UK. iT WAS A BLAST.
