Couch Surfing

It seems as of July 18th I've got no where to stay :(....So I'm going to venture onto this Couch surfing thing and move about London for about a month. Hopefully I can leave most of my luggage with a friend because otherwise its going to be near impossible to move every few days!!

So Monday the 29th of June I had a ticket on a bus to Carlisle at 2:05 leaving from Preston bus station. So I got to Preston bus station with 40min min to spare!! Another old lady sat next to me, she was also going to Carlisle. We chatted a bit then her bus came at 1:55p. Now I thought it was a bit odd that there would be two buses ten minuets apart from eachother to Carlisle...hmmm. well 2:05p came and went and no bus. So I went into the office and the lady said "o you were suppose to be here at 2 this morning. The 1:55p was the last bus" :0! "your only option is to go to the bus station" again :0!! The bus station was on the bloody otherside of Preston! A good 20min walk on a hot day wth 100lbs of luggage! I shit you not this was RIDICULOUS!! Well I had no choice so I started walking and about an hour later I was on a trai to Carlisle. Fortunetly the train was faster than a bus so the hour wasted was made up by the speedyness of the train!!
Anyhow my Great Uncle Peter picked me up from the station with his wife Barbara and we went back to there lovely little cottage (which is called Tilly Cottage btw) on the sea side in Allonby!

Well have to run. Catching a bus to cockermouth. There is a festival going on today and so far no rain!! Though they expect heavy showers...but all I see is sun hmmm
