London & UFC 225

up at 4:30, packed, checked out, and on a shuttle to Heathrow. got the girls sorted for their flight, sad goodbyes, then made my way to another terminal for my flight. uneventful, watched a few movies, transferred in Detroit, and took the train home. quick shower and changed, then in a taxi and off to the United Center. great card, enjoyed the fights, especially the main event, but knackered after a marathon day.

Bristol, day 6

another solo bfast, tried to pick up Tiffany, then over to the scooter store and bought mom a new rig. back to the hotel, packed and checked out. managed to find Tiffany this time, and a last visit with mom before the drive. horrid traffic due to an accident, didn’t arrive to our Heathrow hotel until after 7. cool room, Indian dinner there, then a bit of packing before a short night.

Bristol, day 4

up early, bfast solo, then picked up mom and took her to see a doc. pretty easy, dropped her back home, and back to my girls at the hotel. did a little exploring with Mira and tried to feed some sheep, but they weren’t interested. picked up Tiffany from the train station, came back to the hotel for a drink, then met up with mom for Chinese in Worle.

Bristol, day 1

arrived into London before 7 am, cleared passport control, got our bags, and found our rental. rental was a pain, but finally off and making a very tired drive west to our hotel, south of Bristol. short nap turned into midday… called mom and met up for dinner at The Summerhouse.
