What's been happening . . .

So, on Christmas eve Gary (family friend) took me to the movies to see Meet the parent's: Little Fockers, we went GoldClass :O That was heaps of fun!
Then, well of course Christmas was a few days ago :) That was heaps of fun, got to watch my brothers open they're pressie's via Skype, and they watched me open a few of mine. Oh what would I do without Skype?
And yesterday I went to Stonehenge :) It seems so wierd to see it, it's only maybe 20metres away from the road and you can get prety close to it. But it was really cold, so we (Jason{Cousin}, Rochelle{Cousin}, David) left after about a half hour. Got a few things from there for people :) Wasn't really much there other than magnets though . . .Oh just to let you know we drove about 6 - 7hrs there and back :S
Nothing else has really been happening  . .  . . SHall update again soon :)

HIYA!

Hi all :)
Another update. Well, I'm almost postive that I'm gonig to have a white Christmas, it's been snowing and the temperature is really low, don't think it's all going to be able to melt in two days.
It was my Granddad's birthday on the 20th, so we had a party for him on the 18th (I think) that was fun :)
Lat Friday Rochelle upducted me and we got to go ice-skating! That was soo much fun, Rochelle was amazing! First time and she didn't fall over once, and kept doing fancy looking turns by mistake! I only fell over once, but that was while attempting going backwards (fastish) turning around and going fowards, that was bound to fail :P
Tomorrow, some family (Aunty Maggie and Gary) are going to take me into Birmingham to see a movie and some others things, were going to go to the German Markets, but sadly they closed today :(

Counting down to the DW Christmas special, yes Australia I get to see it about 10hrs before you! :P
That's pretty much been all that's happened :|

Here again are the links to my FB England albums (need two now, cause I have to many photo's :| )
You don't need a Facebook account to see them, just follow the link :)

P.S.
Hope you all have a great Christmas :)

Yes, I'm still alive!

Hi All! Again sorry for the lack of updates. . . . . .. 

What's happened in the past 10 days. Well a few days ago I went to this manor house with my Nan's church group. It was really pretty but there was a bit too much time spent there :) On Monday I got to go to the local Scout group :D it was heaps of fun, spread the rumour's of Drop Bears for anyone who know's of the rumour :P It's really amazing to know that the English basically model Australian life on Neighbours D: Yesterday went to my Aunty's Lolly shop :) Fun, as you would expect!

Tomorrow, my beautiful cousin is planning on abducting me again :) Which I can't wait for! On Saturday is my Granddad's birthday party so that's going to be fun. . . . . . . .  Can't think of much else that's happened. . . .. .  

Ah, yes, since the snow stopped a few days ago (not sure how long it's been :S thinking about 10days) no snow just a bit of frost. Well this afternoon it started snowing again :|  Supposedly we're going to have a white christmas, which will be great, just hope it stop's after that. London at the start of the new year, want to actually be able to go places!

Okay, will try to update again soon :)

P.S. here's the link for my Facebook England album :)

England Photo Album

!!!UPDATE ALERT!!!

Okay, firstly, sorry for the lack of posts :S
So what's happened since Tuesday, well it's only today stopped snowing, and I'm kinda pleased, it really is only a novelty for a short while, it gets annoying not being able to drive anywhere :|
So have shovelled snow a few times, made a snowman with it, pretty pathetic attempt it was only knee high (will upload photo's in a separate post). Pantamine I went to see a, which is like a Christmas show, that involes the crowd, I was told it was really hard to explain what it was, and I now understand why! But it was amazing! It was Cinderella Beautiful, loved the Ugly step sisters :P Two men :P
The other day I went and saw my cousin/sister/wife Rochelle <3 and met her boyfriend, Dave :) WE went to Nottingham, saw some random castle, and went to a 700yo tea-house :O really good tea :)
Today, saw my cousin Sam, and his dad, my Uncle Duncan. Sam's going off to some place with the army, so this is the first time I've seen him in over a year. We had a huge christmas dinner there, with his family (which includes Rochelle) just to people who don't know my family tree, like some stalkers (Connor) would :P So that was amazing. . . .  . . . .
Not sure what's happening tomorrow, I think that we're going to try and get my trumpet :D

So yeah, that's basically everything that's happened. . . . . . . Hope to update you with more soon :)

IN ENGLAND

Access to internet :D YAYAYAYAYAY Nan's internet hasn't been working :(
Okay, so now I'm in England!! It's sooo cold! Supposedly this morning it was -7.4ºC, it was amazing, there's snow and everything....it's funny, the first day I was here, was the first day it started snowing!
Anyway, flight was all good, on the first leg the pilot invited me and the other unaccompanied minor, into the cockpit! We have photo's so they'l be uploaded soon!
So what's happened so far, well SNOW it hasn't actually been snowing, but there's heaps of frost! It's awesome! And crazily cold, I was out today for maybe 5min without gloves, my fingers were numb, it's crazy! I've seen a lake frozen over!
Last night me and nan went to a christmas thing, I'm still not sure what it was, basically Santa was in a 'sleigh' and was going up a street, then everyone stopped, and a heap of xmas light's lit up that street, and that was it. . . . .  THEN WE HAD CHIPS FOR DINNER! For all those that haven't experienced English chips, you haven't lived :P
Today, went out for lunch, oh yummy! Proper English dinner ^_^! And I went to the church where my Mom and Dad got married, it's really weird lookin :P

Found out that my flights have been changed! I'm now leaving in 1 week! A day early........... I shouldn't be scared at this slight change but I'm petrified :S
It's great though, I get to spend a day longer in England, but now I miss out on saying good-bye to people and only get to spend one day with my friend now, rather than two :(
Oh well, really better start packing now!

This Blog

Well, first hi everyone!!!
I've never used a blog before, so please don't have high expectations for this one! The purpose of this blog is basically to document my time in England, and the time leading up to it, so everyone can see! With Mom's idea (to actually have a blog) and Connor's help with telling me that this blog site actually existed, this has resulted......
Well the first stage to going to England, is the countdown! I've been counting down since about 130 sleeps, it's currently 18, (I'm hoping to find a way to have a countdown on this blog). Mom's says this time will be the most fun, because no expectations have been crushed, but then I don't really have any, I just want to spend time with family.
So for now, bye, hope to come back here soon!
<3 Zoe
P.S.
Just to let you know, I have managed to get a countdown working!!!
