A bit, from Chasetown. 4 and a half hours maybe

Had a bite in the HRC though.

Was anyone else there from FD?

Ohh, that is quite far then :/

Well at least you got to go in there and see all the memorabilia. I've been there once, about three years ago, and I didn't think much of the food but I was a very fussy eater when I was 15 and I'm also vegetarian so my choices were limited. It's kinda worth it for all the things you get to see though.

I never got up to London - I suspected it'd be cancelled when I saw all the snow and I checked my emails specifically and it turned out to be right. I'm only about an hour away at the most though, so it was easier :/

I wasn't too fussy either, just drank loads of Sherl Temples! I had a good time with my mum I guess, but we can't really afford another trip to London. I especially can't take another two days off of school either, so it's pretty grim for me at the moment.

This majorly sucks, but you can definitely skip school, you must be Year 9 right? Shit don't get serious until year 10.

Being an adult is great fun.

Where'd you live again? London wasn't too bad anyways. Here in Chasetown it's pretty deep!

Lincoln, apparently the roads are really bad in and around it. Plus they've closed the Christmas Market this year....first time since it started! Bloody ridiculous here, right now I think this is the worst place for snow....which is a bit weird

Oh, just claim that you're ill - it's only year 9, it doesn't matter too much Manic Street Preachers are much more important

Our school finished early yesterday and was shut today but tomorrow they want 6th form to come in... it's fine though, I'm performing in the school concert, so I get to spend the day rehearsing.

That must have been deleted as I've just looked and the last tweet is "'The trip' is pure comedy genius-better and better each episode xx" from Nov 29th which I'm presuming was done by Nicky?

Or is there another one?
