Andy and I decided to walk into town today, had a McDonalds for lunch, Big Mac, McChicken sandwich, 2 large fries & 2 large drinks £3 the lot. Andy reckons it's the best one he's ever had, was quite good, better than UK.
Lunch venue.I've noticed that people here like to sleep at lunchtimes (pastime No 1), Maggie sleeps at her desk, Lobo sleeps under a machine !!, Cai sleeps in the chair. As we were walking along today, past the building site, lots of workers were asleep !! one in a tractor and this guy, on the path !! The onlookers thought it funny, some idiot westerner taking pictures of sleeping people !
Wherever we went today we got strange looks, maybe it was the shorts, no I'm not going to post a picture, we might walk to the KFC tomorrow just to get more funny looks. We walked back through the park, an old lady started shouting at us, wondered if we shouldn't be in the park or maybe she was telling us to go home, don't know, it's a bit odd when you don't know what you've done.
Here's a pic of the main street near us.
Back again soon,
Song for the day : Walking Down Your Street, The Bangles.
Hi Neil
ReplyDeleteWere you both in shorts? Maybe it was the site of hairy legs that made the old lady shout! Obviously not used to seeing legs exposed. Feel like a sleep most days myself at lunchtime, lucky beggars must be nice to get your head down for half an hour.
Hope you get the materials you were waiting for soon. Whose fault was that?
Don't eat too many Macdonalds!
Hi Neil, If she hacked up a load of flem then spat on the floor and shouted, I think this is possibly a friendly greeting, bit like Hi there how you doin ? it's happened to me.
ReplyDeleteFlight home was half empty so you could have got on !
I'm really missing the maid food, could only find a bacon sandwich to eat today when I got home!! never mind i'm sure i'll cope.
Anyway you carry on enjoying yourself over there, don't work too hard. Phil
Hi Neil & Andy,
ReplyDeleteI don't know, you two in shorts is enough to make anyone shout!
Don,t eat too many takeaways!
Pictures are good, nice to see some.

ReplyDeleteWearing shorts!!!!It's freezing here especially when I have to work outside at lunchtimes.
