Once I got back home from England, I needed a job. Me and Jo, both got job’s at Victoria’s newest pub, The Irish Times. It was a pretty awesome place with gold plated taps and over 30 beers on tap. Great pub, I only wish I spent more time there drinking rather than working.

Back in Derby. We woke up on Christmas morning and went straight to the local pub. It was awesome! One of my favourite parts about local pubs in England is that they have fireplaces in them. I could sit all day/night by the fireplace and drink beer. After the pub we went back to Darren’s house, opened presents, and then played football in the backyard until his mom called us in for delicious turkey dinner. After dinner, movie’s, more wine and a lot of passing out.

My next stop was to see my friend Lucy. She lived in Balsall Common, which is near Birmingham. We had so much fun shopping and pubbing. Pre-drinks at Lucy’s country house was pretty hilarious too.

After leaving London, I went to Derby to visit my friend Daz. Everyone asked why I ended up staying in Derby?? But good friends = good times, so I stayed in Derby for a couple months. This was one of the pubs that we went to frequently, but apparently it is all boarded up….too bad.

We went to this pub a couple times while we were in Exeter, it was converted from an old train station. At night the back wall reflected all the people and made it look as though the pub went on for miles

Exeter was amazing! It is where we had a big reunion of all my best friends from Aussie. Daz, Tim, Colin, Sara, Gip, Jason, Lucy, Robbie, and me, it was such a fun weekend. Exeter is Robbie’s hometown, and we definitely had fun crashing his local pub!
