Description "Darling, you do realise this has all been paid for out of my wallet?"

"Even better!"


I don't know why, but I get the distinct feeling Octadad is trying to make up for something he no doubt did wrong. XD


---


So, I spent part of my Christmas break improving my geography of Manchester a bit. Apart from walking through some of Deansgate to the science museum there I hardly go there at all, which meant that every time I had to meet a lecturer there for a University outing, I had to arrange for one of my classmates to pick me up from the station to stop me from getting lost! XD


Now however, I can successfully navigate my way from Piccadilly station to the main high street quite easily. Sure, to those of you from Manchester that's hardly anything, but hey, it's a big step up from the fact I had no sense of direction.


And now this is where I'm going to put on food critic hat and make a small lunch recommendation for Manchester city centre. DON'T go the Yo Sushi in the Arndale Centre, go out of your way and go to the one in Piccadilly station. Not only is it better organised, but the staff have a far more acceptable take on customer service as well. I'm not even going to go into how attrocious the Arndale branch was when I went in.

Wonder if they went to Brayless or Easy Buckins or even Foaline's Basement?
I so hope they did not go to Target.

Octadad likes hanging out at Hoofmacher and Schleppers.

Looks great.

Actually, I should say he's losing the pounds he's gained, and it's a double joke if you are British.

Oh dear God I know this feeling! Dx


When I'm in Manny I just go everywhere by Tram, either from Piccadilly or Deansgate to Altrincham for the Airport or to Bury for the East Lancs Railway


Also, usually at Piccadilly station I'll head for the place that sells the Cornish Pasties (I can't remember for the life of me what it's called). Also, do you know about the really cool Smoothie Woothie shop in the Arndale that does fantastic smoothies? (Again, I can't remember what it's called! xD)

Luckily the only time I had been in this kind of situation, I just told my sister "Carry your own stuff".

That's why I'm hoping if my girlfriend or wife don't end up using my money and have to make carry everything. I'm not saying I'm not a gentleman to do this, but my main concern is does she need all that stuff purchased and just for show? We only buy what we need.

So.... yeah, it's sad for Dad to bear with this. I wonder will Octavia treat the same way to her husband, if she's married that is.

Probably not as strongly as this, but given how much of her mothers looks that have been passed on, I expect that part of her personality might also have been inherited with it.

Ahh.... Like Mother Like Daughter, the husband will feel the same. But surely the husband will negotiate a little bit more to choose between him or Vinyl.
