Nottinghamshire Travel Blogs

Background: Great Britain, the dominant industrial and maritime power of the 19th century, played a leading role in developing parliamentary democracy and in advancing literature and science. At its zenith, the British Empire stretched over one-fourth of the earth's surface. The first half of the 20th century saw the UK's strength seriously depleted in two World Wars. The second half witnessed the dismantling of the Empire and the UK rebuilding itself into a modern and prosperous European nation. As one of five permanent members of the UN Security Council, a founding member of NATO, and of the Commonwealth, the UK pursues a global approach to foreign policy; it currently is weighing the degree of its integration with continental Europe. A member of the EU, it chose to remain outside the Economic and Monetary Union for the time being. Constitutional reform is also a significant issue in the UK. The Scottish Parliament, the National Assembly for Wales, and the Northern Ireland Assembly were established in 1999, but the latter is suspended due to bickering over the peace process.

Tommorow we start. It was my last day at school today. I said goodbye to all my friends. Simon went into his class and said goodbye to his friends as well. Tommorow we have a taxi coming to us to pick up our luggage and take us to the airport. We are flying from Birmingham and stopping at Dubai which will take 7 hours. Then we change planes on to an Airbus A380 (a double decker plane) for 14 hours before landing in Sydney(see map). Mum is dreading it!! [View Full Entry]

So here we are, getting ready to go on our big adventure. Just to make things interesting, and as we were missing our guide dog pup Sophie who has gone on to training, we're looking after a 12 week old puppy this weekend called Millie, when we should be packing! She's a black retriever, and quite active, and judging by some suspicious damp spots, not fully house trained yet. Time till we go [View Full Entry]

The second weekend of my life in Leicester I took a day trip to a nearby town called Nottingham. For those of you who are Robin Hood fans you will recognize it due to its proximity with Sherwood Forest where Robin and his merry men hid in a giant hollow tree. Madison, a girl I spent a lot of time with at the London orientation, came with me. We left on Saturday morning by train, and the trip only took about 45 minutes. Once in Nottingham we were a bit early for anything that we wanted to see, so we had [View Full Entry]

Well i suppose it is time to write my last blog (a month late- nothings changed)...can't say it will be the last ever blog- i may bore you again with the adventures of my life. My first week back was exciting to say the least, arrived back on Thursday night where my dad came to pick me up (on time) and we travelled back to sunny Leicestershire. The next morning i went to see the ponies, Dom firmly let me know that i had abandoned her for 3 months (in the hands of a very lovely friend) and decided she didn't [View Full Entry]
