Elusive internet

... I think my posts will be few and far between while in the UK. The hostels seem to not have wifi included in the cost, so have to lurk at MacDonalds etc or find a cafe with wifi. Not really a fan of Maccas, so my internet time is being greatly reduced. Also my plan has been to use the internet in the evenings after being out and about during the day, and I now don't want to spend most of my days looking for internet access and then being locked at the laptop.

Today while travelling from Salisbury to Exeter I stopped at a few places and not a Maccas or cafe with wifi to be found.

I might be able to do a brief update when staying with Servas hosts who have internet, but I can't guarantee that as I will be using that internet time to hunt and gather for the next stage.

Bottom line is don't panic if I don't post regularly or frequently from now on.

Just briefly, I can't believe some grocery prices here. Check out these prices I've converted to Aussie dollars:
2lt soda water = 25c
16 ibuprofen = 42c
Bandaid strip = 42c
700mls Amaretto liquor = $15
10 Rewritable DVDs = $5.99

Have to go now, heading to Ashbury for two nights.

  1. Yeah but, no but, yeah but, who is all packed up and out and about (and is in a village/town that even has Maccas) at an hour when brekky is being served? Usually not this little black duck ...
