Seeing the girls

Before i can tell you that Story i have to tell another about a selfish mother.
After a random night out in Manchester i found a camera battery in my jeans pocket the following morning. I had probably found it on the floor somewhere and picked it up wanting to hand it in and forgot. I called around to places i may have gone but no one was missing a battery. Luckily it fitted my mum's camera, so i gave it to her. Then last week i bought a new camera to replace my 'very used' one, unluckily sony changed their batteries again so the spare one wouldn't fit in it. So i asked my mum if she would swap for my new one. BUT NO, she wouldn't. So i had to take my camera back to the shop in New York and buy a more expensive one. Now she wants to swap!!!!

In New York, whilst the girls were getting pampered in Macy's i did my new tourist thing and had a long walk from 33rd St down to 14st. Stopping at the Shake Shack for an amazing double cheeseburger and a cup of hot cider. Along the way i also popped into charity/thrift (for Americans) stores looking for a travel guide for South America. After 4 stores i had had no luck, but i now have guide books for my next trip: Fiji, Costa Rica, Guatemala and Central America. It was 5 books for a $1.

From there i wandered around Little Italy, Soho and Chinatown looking for a mascot for my little adventure. Then i met the girls went for a chinese and organised to go round to their flat tomorrow night after i pop up to Tiffanys' Grandma's place up in North Jersey.
