Holland Diary. part 1

16/10/2011 location veenendaal Holland.

2 weeks have passed and seven to go. It's such a wonderful place. It's very picturesque, small and peacful. it's hard to believe that only 40 minutes away by train is Amsterdam. i was there yestarday for the first time in years. What a place Expensive but full of life, culture and the odd coffee shop.....
It was a very busy place and you see it through diffrent eyes when you are 22.
The town of Veenendaal is very diffrent from anywhere i have ever been before. there is litraly a wind mill in our back garden, no joke. Like i said though a very small town, and very christian aswell, That's one of the last things you would think of when you though of Holland. The only places Open in our town on a sunday was a Hotel and the Burger king. This place is remarkable and the diffrence it has to Glasgow is astounding.

My 1980's

Although life seemed dreary and bleak it wasn’t, I just got a brand new pair of roller boots. It took me a while then I got the hang of them I was one of the first in my street to get a pair so there were all the neighbours’ kids wanting a go on them. I let some of the people play with them I charged them 10 pence and got myself my own lunch in school for a week I felt like a had a job. My mum was in wonder all the time, I was pulling out money in all directions and she couldn’t put food on the table. So I done the right thing gave her last four pounds I managed to save and we had a hearty meal for about three days. If she was happy I was happy. My sisters were jealous of all the new friends I made because of my roller boots. They devised a plan that would leave me hurt and embarrassed. Dyane took a screwdriver from the kitchen drawer and went out to the landing. She had to be very quiet because the full close echoed and you didn’t want to wake up Maggie Murphy, she staye...

what could have been part 1

Go back a year, change things, go down a different road in life and see why fate does what he does. These two stories are about a group of friends. The first group met as friends often do through the most original way of socializing through conversation. confidence and chatting on line. This was a pretty regular routine for a while until Greg the oldest of the 4 decided he wanted a night out. Little did he know that the night they would embark on would change the groups life forever. Greg gets ready and left his flat in rural Glasgow to get a bus into the city centre  for the meeting of his mates, some have made each other acquaintance before but for Sarah and  Luke this was a first time meeting.  Dannielle was the fourth member of the group she was always full of life and eager to get on the vodka, never knowing where she would end up or who she'd end up with. Greg used to joke that her middle name was cloud becau...
