What a great birthday!!
If someone had told me years ago that I would celebrate my 20th birthday at Bristol, listening and jumping around in the front row to the tunes of mando diao, I would have said he or she was crazy. But crazy things happen sometimes.

Steffi and I left on the 11.25 train to Bristol ( our day started witha delay, we actually wanted to take the train at 11 o'clock but we're already used to being a bit late...).
Having arrived in the 4th biggest city in the UK, we started our trip with exploring this new place, making our way over bridges and streets, little parks, over roundabouts etc. pp. until we finally reached what we had been looking for : The "shopping high street" :D
Our purses lost weight from shop to shop whilst our amrs had to suffer more and more under the weight of the rising amount of bags.
When we finally had enough ( at around 5ish) we seated our bums onto benches, with nice coffee and coke in our tortured hands.
18.30pm, time to collect our tickets from the venue. let's get the concert started. About 50 % 8at least) of the people who had come to be part of the crowd being singing and dancing to Mando Diao were Germans due to the fact that the band hasn't built up a real British fan community yet. The gig was amazing, great, sweaty, hot, vibrant... whatever. But we had a blast and a sparkling night.
