Booked My Holidays!

Oh my goodness, I booked my holiday to Bulgaria!
I know what you are thinking, someone like me, in charge for a holiday. But thankfully, I went to STA travel, and Rachael helped me book nearly all of it. I am getting very excited now!
I've booked six night's in Sofia, in a self catering apartment in the centre of the city, near the metro and the parliament, and then two night's in a beautiful hotel in Varna. There's a three hour train ride to get from Sofia to Varna, so that's not too bad. I just have to book a return flight home, because the only company that flies from Varna to the UK is one that don't book with the travel company, but that's not a problem. We got a fantastic deal as well. I would really recommend STA travel. They were absolutely brilliant, and the staff really do know their stuff!

I also got an insurance policy, because you all know exactly what I am like. So if I do break my leg, or loose my passport or anything like that, then at least I am covered. (touch wood I don't).

I apologize for the strange time I am writing this. I tried to go from three months of sleeping in the day time, to four day's of night sleeping, to then working a night shift, an now consequently I slept for thirteen hours and am now awake. Yes that's right, thirteen hours! I got into bed at about 8ish, and set my alarm for half 11. I woke up, and thought I pressed the snooze button, but I must have switched the alarm off, because I work up at half 10 last night completely dazed and confused and with a sore neck and back. I must have been tired! I feel absolutely exhausted now, so I think I will get back into bed at 7, have a couple of hours of sleep then get back up and do all the things I was supposed to do today but didn't. Then I have the rest of the week to get back into a proper routine.

I need to have a massive bedroom cleaning session. There is dirty clothes and crap everywhere, and my new bed will arrive in January, so I really need to get it organized. Also, I really need to see if the stuff I don't use any more is worth anything, because as I'm going travelling in 2017, I will need all the money I can get!

I now going to see if I can motivate myself enough to do some work on my book. We shall have to see!

Been so long...

Hello. I do apologize for there being such a delay in this post. Something has really stopped me from blogging the past two months, and it's almost felt like my fingertips have had no life in them. But the fact that I am typing this now may mean we are back on track. Lets see what I have to tell you. First off, I guess the most important news is that I now have two jobs. As well as working at the other place, I've also taken up a second job at another well known high street chain working Saturday and Sunday night's for some more cash before I go travelling across Europe. It's not too bad on the weekends I don't work at the usual place, but when I do work there, I end up going for no sleep or even a proper break for nearly 36 hours. It's bloody hard going, but at the end of the day, I need to do this if I want to get anywhere. As they say, no pain no gain. It was Nan's birthday saturday, so we all went up to her's for fish and chips and a bit of cake....

Siena

Now we all know towns and cities that have a major rivalry. Back home in England, it's between the city I live in, Southampton, and a city further along the coast called Portsmouth. It's mainly along football lines, but it's a rivalry all the same. However, no rivalry will ever come as close to being as fierce as between Siena and Florence. For years the two cities have tried to out do each other right from the beginning of time it seems! I can't tell you if there is a winner or not, but instead  have a look at some pictures of the fabulous Sienese cathedral. Even if you just do a day trip like I did, I promise you Siena won't dissapoint. Maybe then you can decide which of the two cities is the best?

San Marino

Next I visited everyone's favourite micro state, (no not Andorra!) San Marino! It was a bit of a challenge to get to, I caught the train from Ravenna to Rimini (literally managing to get on the train as it was about to pull away after a small fiasco at the ticket machine) then a coach from Rimini to Citta Di San Marino. First of all, no I didn't meet Valentina Monetta while I was there, but my gosh wow the views are fantastic! The whole city is perched high on the hills, and the ground is just a vertical drop next to you And perched atop these dramatic cliffs are the 3 towers of San Marino. Only one was open while I was there, and not only did it give me amazing views from the top, but It also had quite an interesting medieval weaponry exhibition, (yes that is a child's toy cannon, and people wonder why so many children died from accidents when they were allowed to play with cannons and muskets!) San Marino is a bit like the land that time forgot. Everywhere ...
