On the 20th March me and my lovely mom took a trip to Glastonbury in Somerset. This was especially special as it is a trip we had planned almost 2 years ago and we were due to go about 3 days after the crash. My mom said it's one of the first things I remembered when I was in intensive care after waking up from my coma and I kept getting very upset about it. I think in that sort of situation you can't possibly compute the magnitude of what's happened and what it might mean so you think of the little things like not being able to go to Glastonbury! (I think I was even upset I'd miss a hospital appointment I'd got booked by my gp..) Ironically we originally wanted to go as we hardly saw each other with her working shifts as a midwife and me being a general 19 year old with a work and social life and we have now spent the best part of 20 months together haha. We only went to the town to look at the shops and stuff but it was really nice! I used my wheelchair mostly but it's lovely to now be able to stand up and look around a shop using my stick!
The pub we had lunch in had 5 cats! Better than the 'cat cafe' we paid to visit in Budapest! |
I think turning the studios into a tour was a brilliant idea and it is so well done. The sets have so much detail that they don't really feel like sets and it's a great opportunity to appreciate just how many people were part of putting the films together, and the amount of talent is insane! I definitely recommend a visit and if you do have a 'butter beer' I suggest sharing one, me and Joss did and half a cup was definitely enough! I'll just put a few of the many photo's I took up or you might be here a while...
DRIVE SAFE, George xxx

Its so nice to know that my witterings and ramblings are nice for someone else to read other than me! I am off to have a better nosey around your blog - i LOVE the blog name :) Enjoy the rest of your weekend mrs xxxx
ReplyDeleteSo sorry I only just saw this (I'm technologically useless, is that a word?) massive thank you for commenting I love chatting to people who read my little blog :) I love your blog it honestly puts me in a fabby mood every post you write! Hope you got a little time off over the bank holiday xxx
DeleteOK I will comment. YOu seem to LOVE comments. So....uhm......yeeeaahhh........I..well, don't know what to say now. Bit embarrassed actually I got addicted to this blog a few days ago. Love the gross pictures and vile vile physical descriptions, really nasty, like a car crash , I can't look away.
ReplyDeleteHaha...sorry, humour.
Well, what can I say. Oh yeah, I once had double surgery on both feet and I had to use a wheelchair. I would lie to people and say I'd been in a speed skiing accident, so they'd think I was cool. Well one day I was lifting myself from the sofa to the chaise lounge using my clenched fists, as you do and it was really hot and actually, due to the exertion I acidentally peed in my knickers a teeny tiny bit and it dripped on the carpet and it was summer so I had to sit with the smell of pee on the carpet for longer than I care to admit.
So my lying really did karmically backfire on me that time.
So, that stupid cow who drive over you and didn't say sorry I'm such a cow, please forgive me I done wrong is going to get some big stanky carpet pee karma pretty soon. I can vouch for it.
Thus ends my story of physical limitation and pee.
Oh yes lest I forget. *Ahem - assume lofty voice * You're going through some things now and it's terrible and blah blah.. BUT but Bu-u-u-u-U-ut, in a few years you'll be fine , with a sense of peace and serenity it will take your peers who are still dumb and ignorant about the carefree value of life YEARs to get. So, in about 5 years, you will be 20 years ahead of them spiritually and probably life-wise too and you'll be young and pretty with the sense of gratitude. If you never really had a real 20th birthday, you can save yours up, whereas they will have already had it, and be jaded with life and got nothing to look forward to. I'm sure they're awesome friends, but I'm demonstrating my point.
Now, since I'm rather embarassed- as I wrote something a few days ago then got scared and didn't post it- I'm going to post this anonymously.
Bye for now and say hello to Joss, because he really seems like a thoroughly nice bloke, with all the stuff he is doing.
PS I am in Tokyo.
Thank you for commenting I do love comments :) and Joss is a lovely guy yes! Thank you for reading my little blog :)
