Days in Nottingham...

Just after arrival to Nottingham, my aunt invited us to have a welcoming lunch in a chinese restaurant. Really great to be having chinese food again in UK.

Next day, I took the gals to Victoria Centre in town. We took a bus there, which is quite convenient. There is mainly 2 major shopping centre in Nottingham here, one is Victoria Centre and the other one is Broadmarsh centre. We also did some preliminary sight seeing and getting used to the people there. At the same time, we even look for job agencies for immediate vacancies.


I got this Vodaphone Pay As You Go mobile plan. Basically its the same as prepaid mobile service in Malaysia. Topping up is easy with this blue electronic kiosk shown below, just need to key in our mobile number and then insert the desired amount of notes to top up. Its that easy! After which the amount will be automatically loaded. No hassle of keying in long top up codes!!!

The next day we went to a chinese takeaway shop in the evening. My cousin sister is working there as a counter girl. Basically that means she takes all the phone and on the counter orders. We went there to learn about counter work as we might get such jobs in weeks to come. This is of course not permanent but keeps us going until we get better jobs. Most of all, we get free food from the cook. Not really delicious but at least its cantonese food.
