I bought the top only cos it was marked down to £1!!! I decided even if I can't wear, I can buy and donate..it's the easy to dry material kind so I thought I can buy and wear for these few days when it's getting chilly (and I don't know what to wear!!) and then donate at the end of my time here.
Anyway we spent most time in the Transport Museum...quite cool! They had vintage cars and super cars and current posh cars...quite cool for car lovers!!!
Then went to the Cathedral ruins (it was damaged by fire bombs in 1940)

Also managed to buy the M&S retro shopping bag I saw in York...then v funny..forgot to buy the diary I saw at The Works branch there...then came back New St one didn't have tt retro car one. Grr...nvm..shall go West Brom again soon. S and I were discussing about what to buy back for our respective colleagues too..and she said she bought back quite a lot of Haribo..she was saying v easy to pack cos can compress them...which is true! So might get that..moreover SG doesn't have minions ones..haha. On my way back, stopped by the vege and fruit stall to get Galia melon..thot can bring one to church to share tmr and I keep one for myself. Oh..then when I came home, noticed the street lined with trash bag..and this morning overheard the news (L switched on tv in living room again!) that there's some protest going on so rubbish won't be collected as usual? But anyway L has been throwing rubbish daily in the park bin when she brings Poppy for walks..so our driveway is free of rubbish..haha!
Anyway El has given me feedback on my thesis too..she also said she got lost while reading cos of some gaps in my presentation of ideas in the intro..and also sentence structure. Then pointed out my no. of abstracts and full text didn't seem to match (I'll have to check it again). Also abstract didn't reflect my study very well. Then also explain why I didn't include some specific industries. So I guess it seems not too bad. I will just re-read it and edit the intro and abstract more, look at my sentences..then do a word count. Hopefully can get it done over the weekend or early next week then end of next week send for printing. That will mean I will be able to submit a few days before 29/8 or on that day itself.
Oh, I found a "backup plan" if Sil can't come over...that is to go to Ireland!! And I won't be travelling alone in a way cos S will be staying in Dublin with a friend (whom I also know) for 2 weeks from 27/8. So I might be able to join her (may not stay with the friend though unless have spare room) either that weekend or the week after (my last week here). So seems not bad..at least I get to go to Giant's Causeway which I have been wanting to go!
Anyway, it's confirmed that he's back. DUH la..when last night I heard his footsteps and talking in the room, I was really like "Huh?!?! didn't she said he has been begging to come back but she said not this time" and here he is. I can't be bothered to ask nor did she tell. I didn't even see him cos I left house while he was still sleeping and I'm in my room when they just came back. Didn't have dinner or watch cooking shows cos I'm still full from lunch. Had Steakwich..steak in a baguette.
Think tomorrow or Sun, if they are not using the pot, I'll cook my ginseng chicken soup...use up the herbs...Weather today was chilly and cloudy..had some sun in Coventry..tmr will be cloudy here and 18deg..next few days will be sunny intervals and about 16 and 17 but feels like 12 to 14! Maybe I still have a chance to wear my boots out! HAHAHA! But I shall be good and settle my thesis first before going out!
