Our Weekend..
Well its currently Saturday afternoon here so i thought i should update this and say what we did last weekend. Saturday we had a pretty quiet day. In the afternoon we caught a bus into the city and went to the movies. We saw Mission Impossible 3. First time we had been to the movies are anything like that since we have been here. Nice to do something simple.
Sunday was another Take That concert. We left for the city in the morning and went into the
city again. This time we went to the Museum of Science and Industry. We walked around a lot of it but the main reason for going was to look at the Air and Space museum. There were lots of planes and interesting things there. Sadly, one of the things in the museum was invented by someone with the name Harper, so some photos were taken. It was a early model 3 wheel ground vehichle. Its not very exciting, but I feel the urge to add photos and this is pretty much all we have.
After the museum we went to China Town which is only a few minutes out of town. Once there we had a look around and decided on somewhere to go for tea. Its really the first time we have gone out for a proper meal since we have been here. We decided on a nice little looking place that had a buffet meal. The place was called Pan Asia and the food was actually pretty good. Once tea was finished we walked down to the MEN Arena.
Once Again we were here to see Take That. The tickets for this time were better than the last and it was actually more enjoyable than the first concert. On going into the stadium there were signs everywhere saying this concert is being recorded and by walking through the doors you give consent to being recorded. During the concert one of them mentioned he was talking too much and it will be the extended edition DVD. I guess this will be released as a DVD at some stage.
Once again there was no Robbie Williams at this concert. If anyone is interested in how you can not have someone turn up for a concert, yet still be there follow this link and watch a video from another Take That concert.
Its 4:30pm now and it time we left to go Unicef Soccer Aid. In the last few days its been announced that Diego Maradona will be playing on the Rest of the World team so hopefully he will get a kick and we will be able to come home saying we saw Diego Maradona score a goal.
