Default Bored!

and bloody freezing!

I'm sat here in a hotel in Sheffield waiting for the A-ha concert tonight and I feel so depressed it's not even funny. The hotel is crap - hasn't even got a kettle! so I went out and bought some wine.

Don't want to have too much of it though, cos I want to be able to take some piccies tonight

I have decided I really don't like the UK and I want to go home. Only 2 weeks left

Nope. There's kids TV, antiques roadshow and some drama thing that's almost finished. Hotel doesn't even have sky! I won't be recommending this place on the travel sites that for sure At least I am only about 2 mins from the arena. It's the only reason I'm still here

We are going back home for a month next Xmas and I fear I'll be the same way. I know I won't be happy getting back on the plane but probably be relieved to coming back to the heat

Is there a bar in the hotel? If so get yourself down there! Chances are there are other concert goers in there having a few! Failing that any pub in the area is bound to have some, go and mingle with other Morten fans!

Enjoy the night

My home is definitely Australia now. Everything feels so weird. Took me ages to find a supermarket so I could get some wine

It's so cold. I don't remember it being this cold at all. It is all very surreal

No bar in the hotel, but I did find a pub across the road. The only saving grace so far. Although it did close at 11:30

Glad you found a light at the end of the tunnel ... It's overcast and raining here but not Sheffieldesque

I've spent some fine time around that part of the UK actually.

Hey, Roxette are doing a 'world tour' ...

I saw them when they first came out. They were a backing group for someone (can't remember who though). Pretty good actually, but I think I'll give them a miss this time

Forecast snow for tomorrow, just hoping it waits til I get back from Sheffield, don't want to stay here any longer than I have to. I'm sat in bed with my clothes and coat on, and two quilts cos it's that cold here

You paint a pretty picture ... I have just discovered I have lost my only (British) passport so I guess I am stuck here in this hell-hole <goes searching for a Cherry Ripe>.
