Kat fed me baked beans in tomato sauce on toast for lunchi. She said it was very British, sooo...trying it at least once wouldn't kill me. :D It tasted good! It looked a bit odd because...erm, it was beans on toast. [illustration] Yum! Really.
After that we walked to the town center (or centre) where we walked...duh, I just said that. The first place we went to was a bank so that I could exchange money. It's almost $2/£1! Doh. Oh well. My first purchase was at Woolworths where I bought 5 chocolate bars, a bag of CRISPS and a water bottle. Well, a bottle of water. And a drink for Kat. Mm...junky food. I'm gonna become a fatty. I wanted a Toblerone but I also got stuff Kat recommended to me. Chocolate bars don't appeal to me in the US but here they seem cooler even if they're not that different. Kat said Kit Kats taste better. :D
We walked around some more...went to a little stationery store, bookstore, passed electronic shops and stuff. Saw a McDonalds & Starbucks! Doh. Also went into HMV, where there were some really cheap CDs and freakishly expensive ones. OH, I saw a great book of drawings of bunnies commiting suicide. I swear it was funny.
Kat is playing a new game she got (or rather, my brother got) for PS2 called Monster Rancher 3. She's controlling/training this cute pink penguin/duck creature...thing. Sometimes it's scary looking but when it just plops around it's cute. When it loses a battle its mouth & eyes go buggy.
Oops, got sidetracked there. We also went to a little nearby market. I bought some plums for 70p, which I guess is a little less than $1.40? Mm, yum! Someone was selling some bread and pastry stuff, which I thankfully didn't get a chance to buy, but there was a box of assorted broken biscuits. Um. YAY. I thought that was funny. I'd probably eat the whole box.
Eek, my mum called! She didn't get my e-mail! :p
