Okay, I love small towns for the whole serenity factor and all, but I hate them for the LACK OF BLOODY INTERNET!?!
Grrrr, anyway, after the last time I blogger we headed out to a small town in the middle of nowhere called hawkshollow, very pretty little town, good food. The first night there, even though we were all exhausted from HIKING AROUND WITH OUR 30 KILO LUGGAGE FOR 4 HOURS!!!! they made us climb a MOUNTAIN!!!! I shit you not. The reason for said mountain climbing was that that area is famous for it's waterfalls. It was very pretty once we finally got up there, but it was a pain in the bloody ass!!
When we finally got back down the leaders bought us all ice cream at the local shop, basically because if they didn't I think we wouldf have all revolted against them and stolen the cars. So we get in and one of the leaders orders a double cone, now double cones here look a bit different than they do at home. They simple made it so the cone had 2 little cups in it to hold the ice cream so the scoops saty side by side.
Now, use your imagination to think of what that would look like, I know your dirty minded enough!!!
The next day we all visited a bobbin factory, don't ask me why,we just did. Anyway, bobbins are the spools that you wind thread on for those who don't know. We went to a restaurant later that night and Jordan managed to get lost for a half hour while GOING TO THE BATHROOM!!!
Ditz.
Needless to say we all laughed our asses off at her, and life was good. That night, the town of hockshollow was holding a village dance. It was really crappy until the guy started taking requests to do music, then me and Jordan went up there and requested the chicken dance. Yes you did read that right, the chicken dance. Anyway, no one was dancing before this so the whole square was empty with people all around the edges when 3 insane canadians go into the very middle of the square and do the chicken dance with all their might, needless to say we got a few stares. We did a whole pile of silly dances like that and eventually other people in the square started to join in. When we finally did leave everyone applauded us, it was fun. While leaving we had a bit of trouble though because these 5 drunk 20 year olds kept trying to force me to stay, they were REALLY damn drunk, they grabbed my arm when I finally went to leave and Carrie, to whom I am eternally grateful, put an arm round my shoulder and said "Soryy boys, she's taken. And I don't share." It was sooooo fucking hilarious!! YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN THEIR BLOODY FACES!! Anyway, the next day (yesterday) we all packed up and left for scotland and we are all now in edinburough, staying in a little hostel. The hostel would have been very nice if not for the fact that we had to drag all our baggage up 2 flights of the old victorian windy stairs. That was absolute hell.
Now, recent amusing purchases? I got a nose stud that is round with a little union Jack on it. It is shibby and I am happy. That's all for now, have no FUCKING CLUE as to when I shall next get internet, so this is all for now.
