This really isn't my kind of town
Ok, so the last two days have been very very surreal
Yesturday morning i went down to the greyhound station again to chase up my bags, still no sign, however half an hour later i got a call saying that my bags had showed up so I went down to greyhound again to meet luke the baggage guy, again, where he hands me my rucksack, which i noticed was missing the sandels, which caught my attention as being odd, then the second bag wasnt there it was just some of the stuff dumped in a black bin bag,
Luke said that a guy had just come up and said he found the bag in the alleyway across the street
After working through the chain of events luke speculated that the bags had infact been sent up from cleveland on saturday morning as on phoning clevland they said it had been on the bus, but when being unloaded at chicago someone swiped them, took what they wanted and dumped them in the alleyway, so my cd case, and a large proportion of money have gone, as well as some odd items like a couple of t shirts, and most bizzarely quite a few pairs of boxer shorts! Sadly several gifts and souvieners id collected for people also vanished. :(
Im in a strange state of flux at the moment which is proberly just the shock of it all, and i don't really know how to react to the whole situation.
So after nearly 4 hours in the greyhound terminal including calling the chicago police i left and went out with some people from the hostel, firstly to a latin music festival, however that kind of got rained out so we headed for some chicago style deep dish pizza which was great.

Cricket!
You have missed an interesting summer of cricket. I don't know what is really going on but I am going to do my best to fill you in, well you know my cricket knowledge is not the best. I am guessing though that you have kept up to date through the tinternet and know whats going on. Anyway there was alot of controvesry over the test series with Pakistan, ball tempering and game fixing I really don't understand it at all. But hey England won the series and are now doing badly in the 1 day games, only being saved by the English weather (Ollie told me that). Well I suppose you are more confused now then before but hey you are back in a few days. In other news: I am bored at work,I can sort everyone elses love life out expect my own. I haven't done any horse riding and no scuba diving for a while. Well its the last day of camp on saturday and there is going to be a big party, the theme is school days so my very short skirt is coming back out! Sorry to hear about your bags going missing, its a bitch when something like that happens. Have a good few last days.
Ele ;o)
