What I have been up to?

Sunday May 25, 2008

My aunt took me to Waltham Abbey and we ate Pie and Mash. It's a very popular restaurant because it is also where celebrities have their Pie and Mash. I haven't tried it, but it was delicious. The pie's stuffings were minced beef, and the Mash potatoes sauce was Liquor made from the sauce of Jellied eel. It had some parsley in it too. Masarap :D Kakabusog din. Then after that I went to Oxford Street again to window shop, since half lang ung nalakad ko last time and I was still hunting for a shoes and bag :P

Bank holiday here in UK! This time we went to Ashford Designer Outlet. Which was almost 1 1/2 hours drive from Leyton. Shopping centre din, and puro factory outlet ng mga known brands like Nike, Adidas, Reebok, Marks and Spencer, Clarks, Ralph Lauren, etc etc etc. And the prices were 70% off the original price! Imagine sa Marks and Spencer ung mga shirts nila nasa £6-£8 lang!!! Sobrang layo na sa price natin. Ung sa Clarks naman Buy 1 Get 1 half the price or Buy 1 Get 1 for £1 only, meron ding Buy 1 for £15, Buy 2 for £25, Buy 3 for £30! Great bargain! Sayang wala ung gusto kong shoes sa Clarks. hehe So i bought my mom a pair of shoes. ;) Wala naman akong masyadong binili, just got myself a pair of jogging pants from Adidas.

I went to the Imperial War Museum. Rich talaga ung war history ng Britain, mga exhibits about their conquered lands how they got it and how these lands got their independence. Also, there are exhibits about the WW1 and WW2. Syempre, focused on their stories, konti lang ung about the Japanese nung WW2. And syempre nandun din ung Mickey Mouse Money ng pinas when Japan conquered our lands. It was very interesting to see these again, and siyempre hindi siya textbook, and we don't have to memorize anything. Fun part is I could still remember some details of what I've learned in High School, especially the WW2 part about Japan. :D

After going to the Imperial War Museum, we went to London Dungeon, but to our dismay, sobrang haba ng pila!!!! Kaya hindi na kami tumuloy, maybe we'll go there by Friday siguro. So we went straight to Covent Garden to buy some tickets for Lion King Musical! :D At last, mapapanood ko na din siya! And also there was the theatre showing Lord of the Rings Musical! Ayaw ng mga pinsan ko panoorin kasi boring daw ung LOTR (kasi hindi nila nagustuhan ung movie), kaya un solo flight ako. And what was great about it was ung prices for Thursday were very cheap, kahit nasa harap or likod ka price range were £15-25, unlike sa regular days nasa £60 ung pinakamahal and ung cheapest price was £17.50. So un, I am watching LOTR musical 2pm of Thursday then The Lion King Musical at 7:30pm Thusday din! Kaya Thursday is Theatre Day for me! :D Ubos na ung pera ko... :(

here are the tickets, blurred ko muna ung seat number and bar code hehe baka maduplicate :P
