Merlin Adventure - Cadbury World

I have not been to Cadbury World for over 20 years.  It has changed a lot! The only thing they maintain is the free chocolate element, we got a couple bars of chocolates as part of the tour. We went on a Monday, and there were still a lot of queuing!  I did learn about the Cadbury, I did not know Mini Eggs came from Mr Cadbury's Parrot, and other weird bits.  At time, I find some of their exhibit really funny, which was a good laugh.

I wouldn't mind stopping by if I am in the area again.

Merlin Adventure - Warwick Castle

My two friends also bought the same deal, and she told her two friends.  So we all went to Warwick Castle, which has a big capacity, compare to all the other indoor venues.

I haven't been to Warwick Castle for at least 8 years.  It has changed, yet even more.

There were more shows on a Sunday as expected.  The shows, including the falconry show, are now very well choreographed.

We were a little burnt, and a little cold, but it was a good day out.

Merlin Adventure

We bought a package with an Essential Merlin Pass, and today is the day to activate it.  What we had not taken into account is that, the tickets allotted for Essential Merlin is limited, and we did not get to go to Cadbury on a Sunday, which turned out to be a bless in disguise.

I also took the opportunity to read the fine prints.

Woodland Creation - Meanwood Planting

Somehow I did not write about when we planted some trees in Meanwood about two years ago.  Then I went back to have a look, some of them took, but most of them didn't.  The one that is growing has a lot of growing to do!

Seeds in A Box

I got some seeds in the boxes.  The tomatoes are doing well but not the cucumbers.  Now I have got tons of tomato plants...

Cheap Gloves

I got some new motorcycle gloves from the charity shop.  The looked okay, but after using them for a while, they are very not breathable, so my hands get quite sweaty.  At the same time, they were not really warm!  Maybe I have to relegate them.

Commercial Sweeping Robot

I have seen robot lawn mowers out in the wild.  I recently saw the robot sweepers in the shopping mall, in the busy hours.  Impressive.
