Poland

We all just returned from Warsaw and Krakow after a weekend break there . We flew the polish version of Easyjet called "Wizzair" whos slogan is "you get a loty for your zloti" (the zloti being the polish currency.
The first photo is of one of the surviving gates to the old town

this is one of the odd statues there

While there we visited the salt mines now these mines have been in use since the middle ages we travelled down 800 steps till we where 80 meters underground


The tunnels run 250 km (we only walked 2.5 of them) and have 9 levels (we only went through 3) and reached a debth of 130 meters underground there are underground churches huge caverns shops and a ballroom!! (weddings are carried out there along with basketball games as well a number of amature sculptors have made statues and wall carvings in the salt rock

The Slackest Man alive

I have to put my hands up I don't even have the excuse that nothing has been happening the fact is I'm just slack.
I have started a new job.
I have signed up for my next module in my uni degree.
And my parents are visiting from Oz. So once again I am promising to keep more regular updates leading onto my first pic of myself and the parents at Xscape in the background of this shot you can see the UK's largest indoor ski field ( my mother didn't appreciate the temp though)
