Facebook is fantastic for keeping in contact with friends, especially seen as I'm about to go on a year abroad, making it easier to send messages to friends (saving the expense of using the phone).
Myspace is just messy, I rarely use it.
The only thing I've really done today was completely gut my wardrobe out, getting rid of anything I don't wear anymore, and then I took it down to the charity clothes bin down the road. Other than that, my summer will be spent mostly just waiting for my year abroad to come around (thanks to a change...

Jump to postI love the rate we can get for the US $ at the moment. I've just got back a few weeks in the US, and I spent less on my credit card than I thought I would. Then considering U.S. prices were cheaper before it started to become weaker, we have an added bonus!!

Jump to postDerby has nothing.
Best thing you could do is to get a train to Leeds or Nottingham. Nottingham especially (if you don't get shot) is a very nice place for restaurants and bars, whilst Leeds is great for night time (if you plan on doing anything like that).
T1 and <acronym title="Lotus Air (Egypt) and Thai Air Cargo">T2</acronym> both lack good spots. There are windows which show the taxi areas, but that's it.

Jump to postWhen I used to work in T2, I would go and get lunch from T1, as it's only a 2 or 3 minute walk, with no doors, security checks etc. Very easy to get to.
