Around Southampton
Friday, April 25
Laurie gave me a quick tour of Southampton, which included finding out
where to get cash from my American Express card. This turned out to be
like Australia - from building society ATMs! That was easy. Returning home,
I asked Laurie for tourist type books, and he supplied me with a number
of them. I selected one showing the coastal areas, and listing all the
attractions. Turned out to be quite usful, so I spent the rest of the day
checking through these books. It was also raining, which was a nuisance
for me, but the locals liked it a great deal, since it had not rained for
some time, and they were thinking of serious draught.
I took Laurie out to dinner - nice Chinese restaurant. I wanted to take
Alison too, but she had a prior engagement with the "girls night out".
She and Laurie left on vacation the following Monday, so this was a sort
of farewell party.
