Don't get the title of my post? Ah, it's all to do with where I have been for the weekend... England's second city, home to Aston Villa, a large university and, currently at least, home to my brother!
Yes he's there at uni and has hosted me in his great flat for the last 48 hours or so.
It was nice being back in the uni life- relaxing, friends everywhere who can pop in at a moment's notice, or even no notice at all, and brain-bending conversations possible at any point.
And then I remembered the other side of university life- that small matter of the course- when we walked along the corridor of my brother's law department.
Jono (for that is my brother's name) was showing me around his department and the law library.
Just outside is the largest free standing clock tower in Europe! What about big ben I hear you cry?! Ah but big ben is attatched the houses of parliament. The tower in Birmingham stands all on its own - built to remember... oh I'm not going to tell you everything about it, you'll just have to go!
Well it is now late and I am back in the cold north (ha i used to think Brum was pretty north!) and i want to eat something and head to bed.
So thanks Jono for a lush stay in Birmingham- see you there again soon... :-)
Adios
