2. How the the sign on most houses tells you not only their number but the street. In England you’d have to walk to the end of the street/road to find the where you’re at.

3. Freedom, at the moment I don’t really have any wheels to get about so I have to rely mostly on buses. Back in Vietnam however I managed to get a full motorbike license so I can just pop on any old bike and whiz off through the traffic and back again.

4. Money - When I was last there I would get a good 30,000vnd or so for my quid. You can do alot with a quid like get 2 litres of petrol, get a hair cut or your hair washed a few times, go from TP HCM to my village ect. In England at the moment a bottle of coke would cost me just over a quid. EXPENSIVE!!

5. Food! everything is soooo cheap and you have alot of choice to make. Next time I go back I should start a Vietnamese food blog.

The t-shirt I got from a friend back in Vietnam. She got this whilst in Thailand.

A necklace my sister brought me back when we went to Hong Kong & Macau

First impressions is that it is MASSIVE!!! The lady at the reception had trouble carrying it so I had to go around the side door to get it.

Now to pictures

The little red mark on the bottom right is my blood. I was wondering what it was cause I was so excited I didn’t even notice that I was bleeding.

Comes with a very nice and useful remote as you can see in the picture

1080p

Screen size comparison, much better colors on the screen than laptop

With my laptop specs (T8100 Core 2 Duo, 4GB Ram, 8600M GT) I can only manage Low at 1280×800 with good speed. Although I haven’t changed anything else yet. I may do that later on and report back.

Some pictures of the game itself on my laptop.

Update - I can run it at medium with pretty decent speed.

Before anything else Pictures of me & Ricky at Cabot Circus

Back to the subject, a ticket will set you back £5.50 for students. My hotdog and Tango Ice blast was about £6. This was for a regular hotdog and large iceblast.

The reclining seats that everyone says is “soooo cool” is soooo not. They may look cool to you at first but if you are a tall person and sits with a curved back then it is not so cool. Whilst watching Quantum of Solace I was forced to change position every 10 or so minutes.

All in all, good if your short, or sit with your back straight. Bad if you are like me.

Enough about the cinema itself. The film was so so. The effects were pretty cool but the story didn’t really leave a “wow, this is a great film” feeling. I personal prefer Casino Royale, but hey that just my opinion.

Anyways after that we left the cinema and went to to “Nandos”

Front cover of menu.

Ricky and his wussy veggy burger and spicy rice.

1/4 chicken, spicy rice reg, garlic bread reg, bottomless drink - about £7. By bottomless I mean that you can refill as many times as you can before you die due to bladder failure.

The the “flag” says “hot”. The Nando’s X extra extra hot sauce is not so hot as it proclaims.

Here are some screenshots taken from today’s episode which showed whats happening this season.
