The Birthday bash
God this arvo has been boring. The ticket girl finally turned up at 5.45pm - I was waiting since 9am, and then she only had one ticket! There must be a better way!! I've done this:
Red Hot Chili Peppers/Ben Harper concert – Thursday 6 July from 3pm at the Don Valley stadium in Sheffield. I’m gonna take the Thursday and the Friday off leaving me to celebrate the whole weekend, another year on my life, and no grey hairs as yet (hah! And none that anyone can see thanks to the curly headed-mass!).
Sheffield – you can get a train from London for as little as £6 (one way) if you book early enough. So do it! We will definitely need accommodation in Sheffield that Thursday night (for those of us going to the concert), so I was thinking about getting a hostel. Then there is the possibility of an evening race meeting at Beverley racecourse on Friday 7th (I think the first race could be 6.30 or so?) – or just hanging in Sheffield for the weekend. I think the cheapest option could be to head back to Beverley because that way accommodation at my house is free! Never mind the money you will lose at the races…or buying me drinks!! And pints are way cheaper here than anywhere else. If we head back to Bev, that way some of you locals could make the trip out at some point.
ITINERARY
Thursday 6 July – concert and night in Sheffield at some cheap dodgy, accommodation. I have tickets for Ellie, Dave the Red Rooster, Fran, Amy and me. Matt R and his mate also have tickets.
Friday 7 July – head back to Bev for BBQ and races
