Woke up really early, though I didn't want to because... well, i'm in a hostel and everyone had to get up early, I thought that I'd at least be able to sleep in until 12:30 but I got up at 8 am instead, you know a decent 4 hours of sleep. Right after that I thought I better make sure I have everything so I went downstairs and got myself some soap and a towel thinking that I'll go and eat (since I bought vouchers) just before it closes at 10 am. Well... I got down there, OH I FORGOT, i'm really really high up, climbing up and down 4 sets of stairs really takes it out of me... but it turns out that it closes at 9 am... So I said to myself that's fine...
man, I just need to go to sleep.
to make a long story short, looked up a cheap place to get food, turns out it's 45 minutes away (which was hell carrying back 45 lbs of food for that long...) and it's not so much cheap as it is... cheaper versions of expensive things, like a Trader Joes, except imagine you have no idea what anything really is... fruit squash? lamb mince?
Here's the kicker, I bought about 1/2 frozen foods and got back to the hostel only to realize they only have a refrigerator.
Yeah, I cooked 3 meals pretty quickly this morning just so I didn't have to waste it all.
And then I found out why everyone wakes up at 7 am and takes showers early... no more hot water after 10 am...
fml.
fruit squash is good. Lamb quince is a topping for lamb like mint jelly but made with quince fruit instead also good. I told you if we think your funny we like you. And we better think your funny. I told you things we discussed over a pint to eh...
ReplyDeleteHave you taken the underground yet? If you get to Loch Lomond then the drovers for a pint and a cheese toastie is just the thing.
