today

Went to ToysRUs today, it's Rebecca's nephew's birthday today, and we went looking for a sand pit, to live in Belfast for when he comes over to visit. It is a great shop, I have never had the need to visit it, but was well impressed with the variety of gadgets and gizmos. It wasn't like that in my day. Unfortunately I over estimated the width of the Ka, so if anyone saw a Ka driving along the M5 with a purple turtle on a roof rack that was me.
I had a nice afternoon, met some friends in town for a drink. They are friends from Portadown who went travelling, and two guys they met in the states have come over to see Belfast. When I arrived they had already shown the inside of many of Belfast's bars to the two blokes. One of whom was getting somewhat emotional about his ex fiance, and was dispensing advice to me about getting out of marriage. They seemed to be well impressed with what they had seen, the Portadown crowd had done a fine job in showing them the city, picking some of the more salubrious drinking establishments, I met them in the Holiday Express on University Street. ;-) I hope they survive the night, as they were plastered when I left.
