Matthew62 Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 The local news is North West Tonight? I grew up about 25 miles from Manchester. I've been to the south a few times now, took the ex to London for her birthday to see her favourite musical. Cost £750 for a 1 night stay. Seems like a pretty f**king stupid thing to do now. Why did you pay £750 for one night? You could have rented a room for two months for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonsieurMonkey Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 I'd assume, travel, room, food, tickets to see the shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew62 Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 Well so do i, but unless money is of no issue i would think that that was a rather large sum of money for a young man to spend for a single day. I also don't think it's indicative of the cost of going out in London, so i'm somewhat shocked by the cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 (edited) Train fare for two came to £140, apartment was £190 (f**king posh though, in an area where the next cheapest was over £300, and the living room alone was bigger than my flat at the time), show tickets were £160 (best seats in the place IMO), two evenings meals at £50+ a go, two lunches at £25ish a go, went to Ripley's Odditorium which was £50ish, then loads of shopping and stuff. Easily adds up! to be honest I still think it was worth it, it was an all out weekend but the memories will last forever. Not even 1 months wages for the best weekend of my life? Worth it to me. (Even though things have since gone to shit between us). Edited August 3, 2011 by Muel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonsieurMonkey Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 Well, it's about £70 for a return train ticket to London, then you'd need to get a day ticket to use the underground which is like £10 so that's £160 on travel. If you don't know London like most of us Northern monkeys don't, it can be tricky to find a cheap hotel in a good location. Maybe he wanted to splash out a bit on the room as well. I used to live in Kent and when I did I spent a lot of money on single days out in London. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess i'm thinking about it, and i go out in London every weekend, have dinner, see new things etc and it's just daily life, all of which is done with a relatively small spend, so i'm always interested in how other's (non-residents) view and accumulate the spend/cost. If you enjoyed it, then yeah well worth it, but for me personally for a similar amount of money i was able to get two weeks in a small island off Croatia with eating out most nights etc, which came as a very welcomed break and to me a pretty good use of my cash. Out of interest what show was it, as it amazes me how much theatre ticket prices fluctuate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 It was completely crazy. At the time I was still at uni (on my placement year now). For me it's comparable to going abroad, it's an alien place full of this strange race of people I don't understand, who talk funny and have completely different ways of life to me. Chicago at the Cambridge Theatre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew62 Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 That's true. Sometimes living here it feels like it's a unique island not actually anywhere. Sooo many languages going on at once - i can often go a day or two without hearing English. Yeah, i know the place - did you go in to the nice little pub on one of the corners of the dials opposite the theatre? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fish-Finger-er Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 Hugs dawg. How come if you don't mind me asking? basically she was sick of not seeing me(shes in uni 80 minutes away, her home is 2.5 times that). I cancelled on seeing her this weekend, cos of work commitments, shes said it was the last straw. im pretty cut up about it, but someone said, single guys get MOAR BACON.

MadManMike Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 Harsh man, LDR's are always pretty tough mate - I had a similar problem when I was younger, it's not easy. You'll appreciate your next close relationship more though, I guarantee. That's assuming this one doesn't sort itself out of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonsieurMonkey Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 (edited) All dem bacon! I always find, in a relationship I've got confidence, talking to bitches don't matter so I just ain't arsed. Then when I'm single, every approach is like "This is make or break pussy conversation, I gotta do this shit right or I will not be getting any." And it throws my game. Just so we're clear, I don't try and get pussy while in a relationship, the conversations just don't matter. So it's easier. I ain't no cheating skank. On all the people breaking up, just leave it at that, don't go back there. It's not worth it, it'll never get better, those little problems won't sort themselves out. Just go find something fresh and new, if it works in the long run it works. If it isn't work and it ends, best to leave it that way.

I ain't no cheating skank. this has already come up, girl i know who is mates with my ex(me and my ex are cool- not the new found ex btw) had awesome patter with her for a few weeks,wed chat about random shit for ages. shes single, and looking. she popped up on facebook like 2 minutes ago, said "hi", i immediately bottled it, gave it a minute and disappeared. its like when your single, every conversation with a single girl is vital. and id got nothing good to say, this time last week wed discuss cheese strings to just pass time.

MonsieurMonkey Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 Yeah but she's looking, you shouldn't be, unless this is more casual axe wound. Don't be getting into anything else right now. Give your penis some time to breath in many different flavours of fragrant bacons. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give your penis some time to breath in many different flavours of fragrant bacons. i know, but a week ago, i could chat codshit, and not think twice about it. she aint even target axe wound, but it just seems easier to be cheeky/flirty/funny in conversation when you got a missus, cos you can make sexual innuendo, dirty comments, and stare at assets, and its all one big joke/admiration of the female form, as opposed to sexual harrassment.

Muel Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 It's normal to have a few emo moment right? Girl move into new flat with you, 3 months later she leave, but you're in your routines already? Rediculous shit like coming home at lunchtime and walking into the door, because it's locked when it was always open. Making two mugs of coffee in the morning automatically instead of the one. Is this actually normal or am I just a gay? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muel Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 Aye, plus the amount of time I have back is rediculous. I'm enjoying being single already, which kinda shows what state the relationship was in I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
