A Planned Way To Spend A Long Weekend ?

After so many days of juggling between home to office and office to home and doing practically nothing useful or amusing, a long weekend with 4 day holidays was always welcome. We thought of going to Scotland in this break,but it was merely a paper planning and nothing actually happened with someone making faces on the expenses , some others on weather and the remaining one simply because of certain lifeless boring qualities that were imbibed in them in their childhood by themselves ! All of them wanted a planned holiday with no one willing to plan, however i took the charge as i realised that all of us have the potential of saying and doing nothing at all and still destroying Everyone's plans. Finally with 2 days to go before the long weekend ,the buck stopped at London and I left no website unturned ( well almost ! ) to find out the cheapest accomodation and travel to suit all . Mind you the accomodation was already full in 90 percent of the Lounges,Hotels and Youth Hostels as it was Easter time . However the problem was that everyone wanted cooked food and I was ready to cook it and gathering everything required for it ,but then they also wanted the price of the food to be very low at the same time and and each one had a different way to define Low Cost !!! However I was still finding a way out when one of the seniors got inspired and a desire came to his mind to contribute something good to the plan and with all the positive intentions he googled "weather in london on weekend" , the search gave more than 10 lac results,however he picked up the very first link by BBC which said : " Heavy Rainfall and thundery showers 'EXPECTED' in London" , This was enough for them to convince themselves to save their 50-60 pounds which would have been spent on this London trip. It was hard to guess for me that whether we were Sad because of program cancellation or were all of us happy with our financial victory( Saving trip's 60 pounds ! Even though it meant rotting at home for 4 days) . However this proved to be the last straw to break the Camel's back and the program was cancelled ( Even before it was actually made we can say ! ) .
On the night before all this I had a conversation with Jaspal about there were some people who were planning a holiday and we can group with them and go and save ourselves from rotting at home in those four holidays, but to my shock he very bluntly and in the most ill mannered way said to me " You should have Gone,if you find someone to take you along with them, you shouldn't wait for us " , I felt as if a fire ball had struck my head , as i was waiting for everyone to go together , anyways i always like to explore alone with no unnecessary advices and Do's and Dont's, and i did my best to maintain my cool on this blunt remark and a sarcastic suggestion( I felt Bad Jassi :( ). I called Vinil(My College Friend ) at that time in the night itself and asked him if i could come to his place in Coventry on this weekend. He was more than happy to meet me and welcomed me to his place without any second thought, and he even started searching online to find the tickets for me from Ipswich to Coventry on the call itself ( To be frank ,I never expected such a warm response from someone in this country ! )
Next day I booked the decided tickets (after the London trip was also cancelled ) for Saturday morning and return on Sunday evening.I booked a cab to railway station on friday night itself to avoid any hassles at the last moment and miss the train .On Saturday i woke up at 4 am ( Yes its true ! But actually the ticket cost's of 66 Pounds inpired me to wake up at time to catch the train! ) and i tried my best to quickly get ready before the cab arrives at my home. However the cab driver had different ideas and seemed to be more eager than me and reached my place 15 minutes prior to scheduled time and i had to hurry by quickly drinking a glass of milk and popping an apple in my jacket's pocket . Then off we went to the Ipswich railway station, to start my first ever independent Journey in UK...
