It's the first. Week of the 3rd .Onfh of 20q7 already and it's actually starting to be feeling like summed now since of the clocks going forward on mother's day last Sunday. With a day off and a chance to check out the signs and sounds. the vlog is below.
The Morning Prep
Now, i was up around d 8:50 with the sky being blue and my eyes not as tired after a earlyish sleep the night before. With this, I got up and checked emails as well as backup pics from the Redmi 4 and fitted the SD Card so I had more space than I needed space I'd i needed to have more footage than i had left o. The phone which was only at 1.5 GB left. There was a choice of cycling g to okehampton but that was not as easy to follow with the cycle path as drake trails so if was the city of Plymouth itself again . I eventually left at 10:05 and surprisingly, if only took me 1 hour 30 minutes and there was a mutley way due to Massive queues on outland road.

As i was exploring, with Drake's Circus and HMV first for PS store giftcards which i wanted for a pretty good 10 year anniversary sale that was going on until the week before Easter. After it was to Holland and Barrett for a change which i was looking for aloe Vera juice but i noticed the gain powders some bbw models have used which where good from met-rx . Game was nice, which someone next to me was close to picking up kingdom hearts 2.8 and there were low stock on £10.00 gift cards. Then i walked to Fone World which did't have a case for the Redmi 4 and that sucks. They had no idea what the name was and compared it to a ZTE Blade then said to buy online for it basically. Warren James was ok but no brogan nor Nicole which was hmm, I walked my way around town for finding a Phone case, after more visiting a few of my Favourite shops first. Also Street Performers.
The nice street performers
Poudland had nothing new new except some chilli BBQ sauce and then CEX were not dealful at all with mini bits but then it was heading down towards the market. for £7 and that fitted the Redmi 4 quit nicely in the phone shop van

It was near the Market and I was seeing nothing in wants. Then A cash converter's rep had a rep place a £500 macbook air outside and a chap was asking me if it's good but for what he wanted. I recommended to sell him a linx or he gets on in argos nearby, for his cleaning business. But then i walked in and noticed a 13" Samsung which looked idea l for doing video editing on the train if i do trips and for £149 i was tempted enough to even try it but then i realised i had spent a lot this month so i didn't bother big my mind a voice nagging at me to buy it. I didn't go for it when i worked out my fiances this month, Almost more than my wages and bills paid.
I Walked my way back up to Drake's Circus, with visit to Maplin and didn't see a Pi Zero or anything I wanted. The Apple store was busy, I was getting to check prices like that laptop in Cash Converters and also this couple spoke to me when I was looking and they were getting their photos recovered. Then it was time to go for a walk
The windy walk of views
After it as time to head up to the sea,. This time i said to go to devils point for a relaxing time which if was a 20 minutes walk and the views were lovely but the wind was not

Relaxing was nice, with mixed typing and a blustery wind and boats passing by, typing up was nice and eventually it was time to head back.
I made my way at through Royal William Yard which was full of memories, overpriced elderflower drinks and posh restaurants. It felt weird to be here.
The views from the Yard
It was getting to town. Now, i passed a cute grocery store by the Cremyll ferry and then I visited an oriental supermarket which had most of the items to start your own takeout, I'm serious, with boxes, 2 litre Heinz ketchup, cases of aloe Vera juice and even a case of cans of shewppez if was lovely and it was tempting me to buy in there bus getting it on the bike home would be nightmare so i passed, the staff were friendly as anything.
The shipping spree
Then it was walking passed garages and rocksalt to get back to town via union Street, which i got here at 4:53 which was then off to poundland to buy what i needed. This was a can of air duster, earphones and BBQ chilli sauce, all were £1 each. That was paid and then onto drakes circus.

the £3.00 bundle
I got in there and went to Holland and Barrett again, this time i asked the lady about aloe Vera juice and it turns out there was a half price deal so before it used to cost £13.28 for one and now if cost me the same price for both, that was delightful. I also found out i had £112 left on the card i won from POWWOW TV which was handy for me to know.
£13.28 for 2 bottles of Aloe Vera Jioce
Then it was hmv which had more items for me to enjoy, but that £10.00 giftcards for the PS store was my goal and if turns out the sales rep was a happy chap and knew me since he asked "you still doing your videos" "yeah, but it is getting hard recently", what a stupid reply that was like, but i paid and on my way.
The PSN giftcard for £10
Then it was time to get the bike that had had a seizure from the looks of it and was laying on the ground, i was puzzled but it was there and told still worked so as far as i know, nothing was stolen this time. I got up, unlocked it and got ready to cycle back home.
The journey back home
Now, it was a steep hill, traffic e was starting to get everywhere and I survived and got across the steep hills and went passing marjon for the way back which that turning back to the main road was actually not as busy but a bus was behind me, also other cyclists were everywhere so i wasn't on my own, and the traffic was a real slide in past until i got to the pavement and blasted it thee and the roads were quieter until i was up the narrow passing near Dartmoor's diner, that was knackered but not as bad as i thought, then it was a smooth ride home almost, being a nice 1hr 53 minutes to get back compared to the 1hr and 31 minutes to cycle there, I felt chuffed evening in the wind, but a drink was needed .

The aloe was not used until I'm reviewing that and the bbq sauce and also i have a Wii adapter soon to arrive as well as a scart to HDMI. Then that was that, I'll get more vlogs done in April and maybe a review or 2 before April begins.
Twas the 3 days before Christmas and Santa needed to get some people presents and also see the sights of a city before it ends the year of 2016. Join him as offers and crowds are abound.
The preperation.
So he woke up, after getting hyped up with what today could bring. He got up and went for a shower, with the Hot chocolate chilli shower gel on his skin and hair wash to make it real. Then he proceeded to getting changed but before that, He checked his E-mails and his FreedomPop account since it was Billing Day and found out he was suspended, He called FP up from the house phone, spoke to a rep and went through the rebilling process and also had to add premium voice since he realised his ulefone paris doesn't let the FP app show the keypad. After that he got prepared, his trousers ripped but he put jeans on underneath to make sure it wasn't too embarrassing for him. Then by 9:58 she was ready to cycle to buy the gifts
The outfit
The fresh cycle.
The cycle was a reasonable one, with cars hooting when passing and the weather with bluesky and eventually after breathlessness and legs tirring and bigger rips, the time was nearly 11:30 and then it was there. The bike was parked and he was ready to go for a toilet before getting the presents purchased.

The time of Santa Arriving
Time for shopping
He arrived and after his Toilet break to find bigger trouser rips, he started. Exploring places in Drake's Circus was for later so he walked to Maplins to find some reasonable headphones, but the prices were a bit higher so it was a nope from me. Then I walked towards the bottom of town, visiting the market and other parts like Cash converters, Wants and Nerdz. Not much in terms of deals for me this time, but it was time to walk up.
A view of the crowds at the bottom of Town
As he walked up, it was seeing the crowds everywhere and the Christmas Market had fleed. But he made is way into CEX which had an idea of a 4GB DDR3 laptop stick for £10 and a 1TB used SSHD for £45. That was tempting for him but he didn't go for it. Then he walked into Game and noticed when browsing, there was a Freedompop Sim Pack, which tempted him, so he went up ahead and thought about it.

He was Looking Back to the sundial
Then I walked up to Drake's Circus, with crowds heaving in various places. But before that, was Game, which Had the NowTV card but not the FP Sims as far as he saw. The sights were full of crowds, queues in stores, classic dance tunes (which you heard) in HMV as well.
Drake's Circus at a busy time
He went to HMV and looked around at the headphones, but Then he called someone after asking for a rep for advice on them, it turns out it was for a tablet, so he went with the Sony ones for £19.99. Then it was him to choose 2 DVDs for £20 due to an offer, so he went for Warcraft and Secret Life of Pets. He then proceded to pay, it came to £39.99 and that drake's circus gift card he won paid this.
The presents for £39.99 in total
Then he proceeded to look into clintons briefly, which actually looked like a heaving mess and then he looked at this card pack for £2.99 and pondered before ending up accidently walking out with it, he rushed back to put it there and was a phew. But then it was a costa trip for giftcards which actually was funny when they ran out of stock. So It was a case of going to the Costa in waterstones.
When he got in there, he was waiting in the queue and this amazing blonde ssbbw was serving, with her cute hair to her round smile to her amazing shape. She was lovely in accent and kindness too. She even complimented him and he got the 2 £10 costa cards, but the gift card didn't work for paying for it. So 2 £10 notes was the way to go. He even got a feeling below when looking at her.
The costa gift cards, £20 in total.
When packing them up, 2 old ladies talked to him, hoping they would get something nice for christmas from Santa, and one hoping he would see Santa after 8 years or so. Then he packed it in the bag and headed out to buy the next gift. The NowTV Pass and FP Sims. So he got them and waited in the queue and there was almost a struggle to get the giftcard to be paying for it, since the staff asked about how much was on there, but they got it sorted nicely.
The nowTV pass and the FP Sims
Then it was a case of him wandering around town, seeing deals and trying to get some wrapping paper and that was a poundland idea. Which they struggled to have idea for christmas card packs so he left, which was a shame since there were so many ideas that could of been had. Boots was heaving and full of ideas he didn't know on what to pick.

Then he headed back up and went to Lush but that was queueing and it ended up a trip for M&S which was busy and had some good ideas, like running lights and other bits, Then work called and he was busy dealing with that, while looking at perfumes and other bits and pieces.

Then it was time to head to get the cards and the wrapping paper he was needing to buy. So Clintons it was, with a shorter queue and the cards were not too bad. Luckily that cost £4.50 so that was time to get that paid for and then time to see how he gets home.
The wrap and the Cards to Write out
The wet journey home.
IT was 3:18 and he cycled off, with his shopping done, Santa finally could get home, with wet weather towards the end and a phonecall halfway through made a delay to happen. The legs were tiring, the trousers were soaked and the phone was being low on battery. By Monksmead, it was a shame that the back tyre went which meant it was a struggle for him to get up the hill but then the chain fell off which sadly made things easier just for him to walk up. So in 2 hours and 2 minutes, he was finally home.
The view back of town
A Stormy night was approaching.
And that was that, Santa was ready to get this all sorted and after a small meal, he was ready to get this up. Just 3 days before christmas. But this will be the last of him this year...
