GOLD FOR CANADA!!!!!
Day 147- 27/2/10
The trip home was a fairly long one thanks to engineering works on the train lines. This happens pretty much every weekend, cross country train lines, within London, etc. It's a pain, and can make a two hour journey become a four hour journey.
Here are my three station changes from todays trip home.
Day 143- 23/2/10
Three sights I enjoyed today: The flower stands in Birmingham on this bitterly cold day.
Tim Hortons at a little shop in Birmingham. (There is actually a garage close to town here that sells Tims coffee as well). It took me a second once I saw it to realize "Hey! Thats a bit of out of place here!" To answer your question, no I didn't have any coffee but will next time. For those of you unfamiliar with Timmys I can safely say its a Canadian staple. (My question is how old are those doughnuts? Are they shipped from Canada?)

Day 142- 22/2/10
One day I wrote a post about a package from home. It included a Canadian olympic shirt, and some smarties. I then made the comment that Canadian smarties were better than the British ones. Oddly enough this post got some of the most comments of any other on here, and I had some further discussions about how I was wrong, that British smarties are better. (Or so I was told).
British smarties come in colors like this. They come in a long tube, with a nicely designed lid that opens and closes. The orange ones taste like a chocolate orange.
They are different, and good...However I still like the Canadian ones.
