Saturday, at noon, Kevin drove me to Julia, who wasn't at home yet. But her flatmate Harold, who is originally from south america, allowed me to stay. I watched television until Julia arrived. While waiting, I came to know Terhi, who originally is from Finnland.

After Julia arrived, we went to ASDAs. While walking, I had the chance to take some photos of Southampton.

As we returned, I got to know Hataw (who originally is from Sweden).

For the evening meal, we had salmon with potatoes. After that, we bought some alcohol, and Julia invited a friend from Holland, whose name I, unhappily, have forgotton :-(. Then we had some drinks to warm up for the disco.

England, you know, is very expensive. It's not only that the prices are a little higher, they're HIGH. After warm-up we went to the Leisure Centre where the IKON/DIVA is. The entry fee was £5.50 and the drinks were between £3 und £5. I hoped, it was an extremly expensive disco, but the others said, it'd be "normal" They only played techno/trance there. It's quite big, but the dancefloor wasn't that big. It was interesting to stay in a disco having carpet under your shoes.

There are some differences to german discos. Especially, to their audience. The english are more, let's say, "rude". Not only that you should be really cautious of tapping ones feet, but also that the boys are more straight to girls. English girls seem to like that and "played" with it... well.. whatever... everyone should see that on his/her own...

As the disco closed (early at 2 o'clock... *shrug*) we first accompanied the girl home, whose name I've forgotten, and then went home through the dark Southampton. The Problem is, that there is nearly no public transport at night.

Back at home, the girls got rid of their shoes and pitied each other about thier feet (... everyone it's own... *g*) and then went to bed. I first had something to eat and went to bed for a short while then.
