Manchester

Came back to Leeds about 2 hours ago.
I spent the entire afternoon in Manchester with Dorothy Wang, who is Chinese nationale. We were there to meet up with some of her friends who, apparently, had a good business relation with Wang's ex-company. The Korean friends came to Manchester for business.

They are soccer fanatics. The minute we met at the train station, they invite us to join them to search for a nearby bar to watch the Manchester Utd. v. Arsenal match. ManU won... 2-0.

When we arrived back in Leeds, I realized we were in Manchester just to watch the match. We had quite a good laugh at it. Train ticket cost £12.30 for return. Will go the Manchester again some time in future. We did not get to see much of it anyway. Heard the 唐人街 (Chinese Street) is the one of the best in the U.K. Call it CSUK? ... for Chinese Street in the United Kingdom? akin to FCUK, French-Connecion in the UK. whatever.

Something really hilarious happened to Wang at the Victoria Train Station, Manchester; felt like what happened to Sara when she was in London.

gotta study now. sia!
