Bog gets her knickers all wet

As it was a nice sunny day in Nantes we decided to go to La Baule to go to the beach. Both lou and I overslept so had to get ready in half an hour, before walking to the tram. A quick decision to wait for the next tram instead of running to catch the one approaching turned out to e a HUGE mistake.
Once we were on the tram it decided to go slower than ever before, casually waiting at each stop for what felt like an hour. By the time we got to commerce to change to get to the station it was 12.14 and our train was at 12.23. For the first time ever there wasn't a tram for 6 minutes so we ran to the next stop in an attempt to speed up the process. We'd asked sister Nora to buy our tickets for us also. When we eventually got to the station it was 12.21 so barging our way off the tram, getting many angry looks and running to the platform (had to be the furthest away didn't it?!) the train doors closed just as we got there out of breath, sweaty and bright red. Lush.
Luckily there was a lovely guy who told us there was another one in 20 minutes so off we stomped to get more tickets having been assured that we could exchange the ones Nora had bought for us to get our return. I went off to buy my tickets from the cashier but Bog (now in a strop) insisted she'd get hers from the machines. I came back to find she'd ended up paying for a ticket to the wrong place and forgotten to use her young persons discount. That was effectively strike 2 after missing the train. We then headed back to the platform (obviously it would be a nearer this time) when lou realised her water had leaked in her bag all over her spare knickers!


Haha it was so funny. She spent the next ten minutes huffing and puffing, effing and blinding about how she didn't even want to come, livid this, FML that.
We finally sat down and in an attempt to calm herself down, bog whipped out her couscous only to realise she had no fork so had to eat it using the lid of the tupperware. Very sophisticated and elegant as always!


We eventually got to the beautiful la Baule and headed to the beach with a quick pitstop in one of the really bloody expensive bars. The beach was gorgeous and the sea wasn't as cold as we'd expected. We sun-creamed up and chilled on the beach for a few hours amongst the masses of minging couples who were PDA-ing all over the shop. Literally disgusting, it was pretty much porn.
We eventually got back on the train when i realised just how sunburnt my ass was! Ahhhh the pain. Wear sun screen kids!
