Impromptu trip to Brummyland (MMMBop, ba duba dop ba do bop)

So... you're sat at home and Chris texts to say "do you want to go out for some drinks later?.... in Birmingham?"

Of course you think for a brief moment and go 'Gay scene in a different city... wicked!' and agree to go!

I took my camera to show you all the excitement. There wasn't that much. I was much humoured when Chris stopped me to show me the wrongness of this:

Pavement!

Clearly, this is wrong on two levels. One easily fixable... the other one less so!

I also took quite a nice photo in the Bullring which shows how Europeanl Brummy is...

Birminingham Bullring

It was somewhat dark and my drunken attempts at making the photo looking better aren't that good! My bad!

I guess that my theory that a big church in the middle of a modern city might be lost on most of my readers of why it makes a place look European... ah well. Guess you had to be there...1

Almost forgot to tell you all about the free pint of Carling (and dash of Lime) I got given by a female (dyke) in Route 2. Much appreciated, whoever you are! All I did was make sure that nobody put chemicals in the other two drinks she had :-)

On the way back (50% of people with me went to see a Hanson concert) I didn't ask, when hearing...

Plant a seed, plant a flower,
Plant a rose, you can plant any one of those
Keep planting to find out which one grows.
It's a secret no one knows.
It's a secret no one knows.
Oh, no one knows.

... if Hanson covered the song... honest. Whoops :-D I blame the Carling and lime...

1Apparantly saying that you just had to be there is one of the worst things one can put on a blog
