mancunian escapade

adrian's turning a year older on the 28th.

his son Paul invited us over to manchester (where he is based for work--he is a sound engineer for concerts and gigs), for a weekend of celebrating his dad's birthday and a little tour at nearby liverpool.

we brought mark, adrian's second son, with us, and made a big weekend out of it.

we left the house at 4:30pm on Friday (with traffic and some toilet breaks) we arrived at 10pm at paul's flat, and went to have our favourite indian meal.

here are some pics of the first night taken by Gigi (my canonG10,haha).

pardon our faces. i drove the entire way (to give a break to the birthday boy) and thats how i look after work.

im glad you had a fab vacation. i love your pictures on the other side, diri lang gyd ko mu-comment. haha. and yes, you look more than "pretty decent" to me. you are naturally glowing! although i hear you when you say that there are just days when we feel prettier than normal. hahaha.
