Before we both started work, we were keen to get up to the Midlands to catch up with Pam, Fred, Lauren, Glen, Ellen and Ian - they all helped us out so much last time we were here.
It was 
like we had never been gone! - lots of chatting and laughter... and food! - you can never go hungry at Pam's! Took a drive around Birmingham, past where I went to uni and had a look at Lauren's new digs. Even had my first ever visit to a Costco... we headed straight to the cheese and wine tasting!! - still it did work, we did buy stuff as a result... They were also sampling Appletiser for all those Tiser fans back home!

No trip to Bromsgrove would have been complete without a pint and a carvery at the New Inn... Fred's local and now also where Lauren works.
Matt and Glen are waaayyyyyyyyyyyyyy to similar for my liking!!.. both really into their 4WDs... we are already penciled in for a 4WD trip to Wales in November - from Coast back into England without touching many roads. Glen also took us along to a Winch challenge in Stourport.. a really pretty area actually... I think Matt enjoyed the 4WDs, but must have felt a bit strange for him to just be watching and not in the Drivers seat.
