We found a book in our hostel where people can write things about where they live.Well this is one entry we found about manchester.LOL

Alright!?

I live in a town where the sun don't sheeiiiine! but theres some right good bands come out of it.

You can go clubbin there til all hrs and get off your effin tits! an easy place to get hold of pills,coke and dope! This is why its such appealing place to live for anyone.

Pics to follow

Cadbury Tour

Today we went on the Cadbury tour!!  Forgot camera so unfortunately no pics..The whole tour lasted about an hour and 20 minutes. Your guide takes you around the factory, along the way telling you about different things and sometimes watching videos. At the end you go into a Silo and a whole ton of chocolate drops from above. Enough to make 4000 chocolate bars!!! You also get free samples, tasty:-)
