Manchester

This weekend I drove an epic journey to Manchester (280 miles) to see my bestest friend in the whole world. We ate and drank like kings, feasting only on the fines meats and deliciously flaming cocktails.

Berlin

Goooooood Evening, since I have nothing exciting to share with you about my week so far, I thought I would show you some of my photos from when I went to Berlin in June, with my best mate! It all started from us googling the "World's biggest.."....FISH TANK, which believe it or not, is in a hotel in Berlin. Shocked at the wonders of this enormous fish tank, we booked ourselves on a flight, to experience to carb filled delights of Germany! So here are a selection of my favourite photos from the trip, I'll try and caption them so you aren't completely confused....

This film was in a gallery near the Brandenburger Tor, it was a comparison between how the nazis used propaganda rallies to recruit people and hooliganism at football matches. It was a powerful message but really hit home how easily people can be swayed to particular view.

The World's largest fish tank inside the Radisson Blu hotel...

A segment of the Berlin wall

Sugar rush at the Ritter sport cafe, where I ate the most delicious chocolate "bit" in the world, no idea what it was but oh man it was delicious.....



The Holocaust Memorial


The Reichstag


Inside the dome of the Reichstag




A flea market in Freidrichstrass (I think that's how you spell it), possibly one of my favourite parts of the trip. 



I take that back, this was one of my favourite parts, It was a derelict theatre where artists began squatting and has been transformed into a work of art, completely engulfed in graffiti but also there was something weirdly sad about the place. A kind of beautiful sadness 




The East side gallery, a reconstructed section of the Berlin wall, which displays some amazing artwork.

Bonfire Night

Thought I would take this mundane Wednesday evening to share some photos I took on Monday evening at Plymouth Bonfire night. 
Considering Plymouth is pretty renowned for it firework displays, the little Bonfire night I used to go to back home in the Cotswold would easily give it a run for it money! Also, it was lacking the cynical spin that my dad puts on the evening, usually by his incessant moaning about being roped in to cook the sausage AGAIN! Or there hilariously embarrassing re-enactment of the Guy Fawkes being arrested and the lighting of the bonfire as he runs behind the stack of wood and everybody cheers in a "you did you best" kind of way!
