Had a great lovely weekend. For a start the weather has been brilliant – very sunny and hot. (As usual the back of my neck has been tanned a lot). On Saturday I went to Tatton Park with a few friends. The park was quite busy – there was some flower show on and also with the weather being so nice lots of people in the park. We played abit of football, badminton and frisbee. In the evening I met up with some of the ex-workmates. We went to watch The Dark Knight which I was really looking forward to (review coming soon). It was brilliant!!! We then went for a nice meal at Wagamamas and a drink at Kro Picadilly. It was really good to catch up.
On Sunday I went to a friends house party. Lots of lovely food and great company. I will be uploading photos at some point soon on Facebook. It was very sunny and her garden had no shade so lots of people taking shelter under various umbrellas and tents. Also got the briefly catch up with some people I met in Shanghai a couple years ago – its a small world!
A few of us took shelter inside and somehow ended up watching High School Musical!!! I know!!!! My friend’s kids are big fans of High School Musical so one of the DVDs was playing on the TV. We wondered what was so good about it so she put Part 1 on. My word its sooooo cheesy. Musicals are bad enough most of the time bursting into song but this was super cheesy – american cheese. There was no doubt that it was an American movie. When they were singing, it was such bad mimeing and the acting was laughable. Actually the movie was quite funny … unintentionally!
Later on in the afternoon/evening I went to a family party, also in Bolton. It was a good to see family and catch up (including a small game of garden 10 pin bowling). I got back home abit past 8 and watched the rest of Top Gear.
