Random Bank Holiday

We all like a bank holiday, usually means a day off work and a time to go and have some fun. That's what me and Amy were thinking but we were at a miss as to think of something to do. We were just sitting there trying to work something out and probably not holding much hope for some miraculous idea to materialise. Then we got a random text from a friend offering for us to go to Maidstone so we thought - why not?

It's safe to say that toady was a good day. Indicator would be the lateness of this post as I've literally just got in and am sitting down to do this. We had a full car of five which wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't a 3 door with 2 people at or over 6 foot in the back. Little like a clown car where the giants emerge from the back. We popped to Pets At Home again to say hi to the hamsters; who clearly want to come home with us. One of the rats really seemed to have a thing for me but it wasn't to be. We went to TK Max and Hobby Craft and then Fremlin's to have a walk around the other shops. A lot of places were closing early so it was a bit short lived but it is arguably better than sitting in. 

The real fun started on the way home when we decided to take the back roads home. The person driving said there was a zoo just on the edge of Maidstone which turned out to have no animals because it was an old zoo, he forgot to mention that bit. None the less, it turns out what we had instead was a completely empty country park with a play area. Something which with hindsight shouldn't be so appealing to a group of 20 year old adults. All that really means is that we can swing people higher because we are taller and have more muscle. Oh yes; but we were yet to reach that infamous childhood legend of getting the swing to go all the way around. Here are some pictures including some fake cars, a swinging rope thingy (technical term) and a zip-line.

Thankfully it was also a nice day. The 3rd picture is freaking epic - very glad the iPhone camera doesn't blur or that could have come out all bad. After this we went home for about half an hour before then going to eat out at the Hungry Horse in Rochester. It's really good value for money and the food isn't too bad but for some reason something is never quite right. Still worth it though, we managed to get a table with a TV on it so we got to watch a 72 year old body builder lift stuff while we ate. Thank you BBC news.

All this day explained to me is that you don't always need to know what is going to happen. The randomness of life can create outcomes which you would never had thought of and really enjoy it. Embrace the randomness and see where it takes you. We did and it's safe to say we are glad that we did.

Thanks for reading today, once again not necessarily 'interesting' but this is some proper bloggy stuff about myself. Hope you enjoyed it! Shall blog you tomorrow.
