My business trip to England is winding down to an end. Today I will be getting on a plane and traveling for the next 12 hours! So while I’m in the sky today, have a look at some of the photos I took during my stay:

I am honored again for your mention. I am sure that your family is excited to have you back. I remember that you have a plan to go on vacation with them next week. Have a safe trip back home.
MMD says
Thanks Shilpan! I am very much looking forward to getting home and heading with my family to Mexico in two weeks! It’s been a long time away from them.

Haha! No way… I’d be afraid to get my car washed by them just for fear of what their actual service was. :p Looks like you had a pretty good time. Thanks for all the reading!
MMD says
I couldn’t believe it! I wish I had caught a pic of their other sign “the Ultimate in Hand jobs”.
Daisy @ Add Vodka says
Wow, beautiful photos! I love the “thieves about” sign – it made me laugh.
MMD says
I laughed pretty hard at that one too. They had a bunch of “silly” signs all over. Different, but funny!
Modest Money says
I just wonder how they determined they had the best hand jobs in town. That must have taken a lot of competitor analysis and sampling. If it’s true, 5 pounds sounds like a good deal lol.
MMD says
5 pounds = $7.50? Sounds like a bargain to me!
Carrie Smith says
The pictures are beautiful! It makes me wanna visit (but when the dollar is worth more). The one about the “best hand job in town” made me laugh. That’s too funny. I hope you have a safe trip home!
MMD says
Thanks! It was a good experience, but I’m glad to be back.

Thanks so much for the mention!
MMD says
You’re welcome!
Josh @ Live Well Simply says
I love that first photo. It looks so other worldly.
MMD says
Thanks and welcome to the site. That was Kenilworth castle. We actually got to walk up in it and go through it. It was really cool. Kind of like you were in Game of Thrones; only for real.
Lance@MoneyLife&More says
Thanks for the mention! I really appreciate it. The pictures were quite funny as well and I hope you enjoyed your trip when business wasn’t happening 🙂
MMD says
Thanks! Even the business part was good. It’s a nice experience to see how the other part of the world does what you do. But our free time was also pretty great.
Budget & the Beach says
Welcome back! Hope you had a great trip!
MMD says
Thanks! I had a “brilliant” time (as they say over there)….
Ryan says
Awesome pics. That last one is too funny! Thanks for including my post 🙂
MMD says
Thanks for the compliment and you are welcome!
