Tis the season to visit the universities your daughter might want to attend and see what type of course is offered and have a look at the local. This weekend it was the turn of Bangor in North Wales, as this was a 4 hour drive in UK traffic we traveled on the Friday night and stayed in the local Travel Lodge. The room was much better than last time except for the wifi signal not reaching our room so Geoff was at a bit of a loss, suprisingly enough the torrential thunder storm put him off sitting at the picnic tables outside, so he was reduced to sleeping earlier than usual which meant he woke up earlier even though he had done the driving!
Maddison seemed to like the courses offered at Bangor and the way they linked together, the idea of game design and writing the story lines for them caught her imagination. The buildings ranged between something old (eg Hogwarts) to a new student accommodation block that opens next year. Everything was seen by mid day so we picked up lunch from Asda and nipped across the Menai Straits to Anglesey for lunch at Beaumaris castle and afternoon doughnuts at the sea life zoo (hidden away but well worth the search)
