Trip to Britain -- Day 9 -- Edinburgh -> Stirling

It wasn't a very good sleep coz of the cold. My throat was dry and nose stuffy - damn!

Fanny brought me to the Writer's Museum, featuring the famous Scot literary figures - Robert Burns, Sir Walter Scott and Robert Louis Stevenson. I was nice building donated by a 'LADY'. Anyway, we walked between the rooms which exhibited some of the manuscripts, books and poetry by these great writers. Yet the gift shop was quite disappointing with nothing much but several postcards on the rack and few copies of the writers' works. Well, the good thing about it was that I could save the money for 'souvenirs'!

Then, we rushed to the train station, aiming to catch the train to Stirling. I really wanted to thank Fanny of checking train schedule, helping me with the ticket machine and seeing me to the platform - what a considerate friend! She didn't join me as she's been to Stirling for two times. Certainly would bore her to death if she joined. What she would do in the afternoon I guess would be taking a nice nap (HAHA!) and preparing for dinner! (She said she would make a Chinese soup! :))

The train to Stirling was a bit delayed but it managed to arrive at 1pm. I straightly grabbed two postcards and sent them back to HK on the platform (there was a mini WH Smith shop). While I was wondering how to get to Stirling Castle (coz it's heard that it would probably take 30 mins to walk up the hill), I bumped into a train assistant to enquire the way to my destination. It turned out to be just a 10-min walk from the city centre! That's why I decided to take my time and have lunch at O'Brien's (hand-cut sandwiches). Let me say, that's the best sandwich I had ever had in this trip! It's YUMMY! It's the special of the day, tootsies with bacon, sausage, tomatoes and radish. Most of all, it's HOT!

Trip to Britain -- Day 8 -- York -> Edinburgh

The terrorists' attack news was overwhelming - heard that thousands were stranded at the airports all over Britain, not to mention Heathrow. The stupid security measure included a transparent plastic bag to contain all your 'handcarry' stuffs and mind you, no liquids whatsoever to be arried onto the plane. A hilarious scene would be seeing moms drinking the baby food (milk?) for security check in front of the customs... OH MY GOD!!! :D

Anyway, I would definitely phone up Qantas in the coming days to ensure my flight back to Hong Kong was all right.

One of the highlights today was my breakfast. I'd been expecting cereals, yoghurts, milk, juice, toasts and a full English breakfast (with sausages, bacons, baked beans, eggs and sad to say, black pudding) - and YES, all were granted!!! Except that the eggs were fried instead of scrambled; I was happy to miss out black pudding! :P

I thanked the B&B owner for the hospitality when I checked out. I really wanted to stay longer. Next time, I should grab someone with me to try the double/twin room of this B&B and the ghost trail in York.

(See the long queue here? That's for Jorvik! ->)

Then, it came to my almost final destination of my trip in York - Jorvik Viking Centre. The guidebook had already warned about long queues - well, I saw one myself when I got there, not surprisingly. It took about half an hour for me to get in. Interesting time machine, nice ride (but not with the horrible smell inside the tunnel... YUCK!) and detailed exhibition of the viking communities. After the centre, I went to St. Mary's Church (ruins) and then the train station for my train to Edinburgh.

The ride was alright though it lasted for almost 3 hours - I read Lynn Truss's book all the way and enjoyed my Walkers' crisps.

(<- Gorgeous! One of the festival venues)
Finally, I met Fanny at the train station and our first stop was of course her flat. There're seas of people all over the streets because of the annual Edinburgh Fringe Festival and almost every person you saw gave out flyers or received flyers of the arts activities. Phew!

I unloaded the big burden on my shoulders which approximately weighed about 15kg by then. One bad thing I found was, unfortunately, that I caught a cold during my stay in York! So SAD! I had to take LEMSIP instantly! Anyway, Fanny and I had some nice chat coz we hadn't seen each other for TOO long. We went out for groceries and had our dinner at KFC, our FAVOURITE! Haha!

After dinner, we had a leisure walk around the town. We strolled around some of the university buildings, Homebase and festival venues. At about 9 something, we headed back home!

PS. Edinburgh was much colder than other places I had been to that I needed to wear the 'warm' jacket! And mind you, it's so WINDY.

(Just see how COLD I was!)

Trip to Britain -- Day 7 -- York

Quite a good sleep again last night - brilliant! It's indeed something to do with the 'thickness' of the pillow! I got up at 8.15am so taht I could have enough time to wash up, pack stuffs and have my breakfast. My backpack was about to EXPLODE! Well, who cares? Thank Karen for her 'capable' bag! :D

I checked out at 9.45am and headed to King's Cross. The train was not yet prepared when I got there at 10.10am. My shoulders couldn't stand the weight of the backpack and I could feel the pain at my back, knees and feet! Finally, I got a seat and quickly put down the backpack - what a relief! The guy sitting next to me, as I found out, was going ot Hartlepool, Newcastle, hehe! He had a weird accent - when he's talking on the phone, I could only understand 60% of his conversation. Anyway, it's a FULL train, coz it's running from London to Aberdeen! GOODNESS! It'd be 7 hours altogether for the whole journey! York's only the 2nd stop of it!

The train arrived at 12.30pm and I rushed to ask for left luggage! :) Then, I was only carrying my small bag for this trip in York! HURRAY!!! Believe me, I was actually STUNNED by the first sight of York when I got out of the station. What I could see were huge walls surrounding some parts of the city!!! And the most amazing thing was people indeed walked on the walls to travel from one part of the city to the other! I was more appealed by the city centre with River Ouse (rhymed with 'muse') cutting through and lots of gorgeously decorated shops. I managed to get a place to have lunch - Michael's Brasserie. The main reason of choosing it was the special menu - roast beef and yorkshire pudding with gravy - traditional English cuisine!!! It cost me almost 8 quids for the food but it's worth every penny of it! (I just LOVE the gravy so much!)

After lunch, I really need to get to the guest house and 'unload' stuffs (my backpack, OK?!). It's a 5-min walk from the city centre in a quieter area but loaded with B&Bs. Mine was just - EXCELLENT. Absolutely cozy with bed, wardrobe, desk, shower, basin - utterly CLEAN!!! What should I say? 28 quids with such a lovely place to stay in along with breakfast - highly recommended! The owner was nice and most important of all, he showed me how to open the window! :D

I walked back to the city centre, visiting the famous York Minster. It contained the world's largest medieval stained-glass - the Great East Window. It's also the largest gothic cathedral in Nothern Europe - amazing! However, the 'cost' of maintaining it was unbelievably high - which was about 3,000,000 pounds per year, as the 'minutes of history' suggested - goodness me! That's also why almost each major part had to receive entrance fee - the main cathedral area, the tower, and the undercloft, treasury and crypt. Well, it's worth the money but I'd better save mine! :P After all, I'm not a 'religious' person.

Later, I went to Clifford's Tower, which resembled very much of what I visited in Kenilworth. A remaining part (tower) of the York Castle - how SAD! Anyway, this time I made use of the camera to photo myself. The panoramic view up on the tower was breathtaking - UM!!!


For my own interest, I found the entrance to the city walls, and I climbed and walked from Cromwell Road (castle area) to Micklegate. It's just wonderful while you're high on the walls and on your left were roads and on the right residential areas. I wondered if any other cities in the world would have this amazing 'architecture'!

Getting back to the city centre, I was disappointed with all the shops, including internet cafes, closed. I bumped into a supermarket called Budgen for fruit and water, and a bakery for cornish pie and sandwich. The pie was... rather... not my cup of tea. I actually avoided the crust as Ian Wright said it wasn't meant to be eaten in his TV programme (when he visited Cornwall)! :P

Since the weather wasn't that good (getting cloudy), I rushed back 'home' and looked forward to enjoying my time in my cozy room. The dinner was chicken tikka salad sandwich and loads of white grapes - healthy stuffs. There came my interesting experience ever of having a shower in a corner of my bedroom! I really wanna get someone to take a picture of me, haha, but it's a dream!



Buried myself into the bed, I read 'Eats, Shoots and Leaves' (cost me only 4.99 quids for hardcover) and I fell into sleep at 10.30pm.

Trip to Britain -- Day 6 -- Shakespeare's Hometown

What can you ask for with a DEEP sleep after two nights of torture? I slept from 9pm last night till 3am (woke up by a call) and then 5.50am today. Though I really wanted to carry on with the sleep, I had to get up, wash myself and get ready for my 'ultimate' journey - Stratford-upon-Avon!!! Believe me or not, it's already my THIRD time visiting this Shakespeare's birthplace. It's like... 'going home'.

It's kind of cool today and it's really a scene to see an Asian girl wearing tee and shorts (how brave she was!). Well, I'm quite sure she didn't know much about the weather in the UK, haha!!! She's shivering when people were waiting for the train to Stratford-upon-Avon at Leamington Spa. I got into a nap on the train - guess I needed plenty apart from the hours I had last night. Anyway, when it's finished, it was time to get off!

The train station seemed 'alien' to me - so desolate everywhere. And I couldn't recall walking to the city centre. How unbelievable! I wasn't sure at all; it's either I had a poor memory or I took the coach in the past two times.

Everyone seemed to have a clear direction - Royal Shakespeare Theatre. I got the tickets from the box office, grabbed every leaflet for the Complete Works Festival (Can you believe it? Ian McKellen is going to play the title role in King Lear early next year!!!), and bought myself the programme for Henry VI. By the way, the riverside was the same in my memory - splendid scenery it had. To my surprise, the performance was 3 hours and 10 mins!!! (What should I do with the 2nd one at 3pm, when I planned to go back to London by the 5.40 train?) Finally, I decided to sit back and enjoy the show, and would figure things out after the performance and lunch.

It's definitely exciting for me as it's the FIRST RSC performance I saw - absolutely fabulous! The actors and actresses were undoubtedly brilliant. I liked Earl of Gloucester and Talbot most as they're just so convincing and moving in their roles. The theatre I went was the newly built the Courtyard Theatre. It's nothing like the globe except for the shape I guess. The stage allowed actors/actresses entering from different directions where they could get so close to the audience. It's certainly amazing to be the audience (for FREE) while others had to pay at least 5 quids for the show! :)

I rushed to the city centre after the performance so as to catch lunch. Hussain's was closed - disappointed! It's said to be Ben Kingsley's favourite Indian restaurant. Then, I just bumped into The Oppo, a fine Italian restaurant. The set menu served cold poached salmon salad with watercress, asparagus and new potatoes, following a dessert of strawberry and cream and short bread. The cost? Well, the most expensive in this trip!

After lunch, I walked to Holy Trinity Church. A SAD feeling just rushed into my heart when I was entering the church. That feeling was disturbed though when the grave of Shakespeare was 'guarded' and everyone entering it had to donate 1.50 quids - money sucker! (Not in terms of the amount of money, but how they get money from the dead!)


(from left to right: River Avon, Shakespeare's grave, Shakespeare's birthplace)

I gave up the idea of watching the 3pm performance coz I couldn't afford to go back to London so late at night. So, the rest of the time I was strolling everywhere and taking pictures. The train back to London was LONG and the sad thing was I couldn't sleep...

My dinner turned out to be Burger King since it's difficult to get anything in Barbican at 8.30pm. It's lucky that I bought a can of potato & leek soup last night, so that would become my 'entree' then! :)
A BIG mission tonight was to pack all stuffs into my backpack! Well, it's not as difficult as I thought! The only thing left in my small pack was my slippers! :D

Trip to Britain -- Day 5 -- Stonehenge & Salisbury

A bad sleep AGAIN! I was 'on and off' sleep till 3am and couldn't sleep because of the noise from the streets and the next room. There're obviously two men talking in that room and they're just too close to the windows that I could hear their voices CLEARLY! GOODNESS ME! I had the thought of calling the security guards to WARN the guys next door! I listened to mp3 music but of course, the 'sound' was just as disturbing. Finally, I needed to move to the other side of the bed to sleep - until GOD KNOWS WHEN, I fell asleep. Not long later, it's already the morning - BLOODY HELL!!! (Sorry for the offensive words, but you can see how frustrated I was!)

The first stop of the day was Marylebone where I needed to change my train ticket to Wednesday for Stratford-upon-Avon. Thank god - the ticket assistant actually saved me from paying the 10 quids for this change. I was late then for my planned schedule for Stonehenge (Salisbury). Anyhow, this was the place I wanted to go, not Avebury or Old Sarum where I could have visited if I set off earlier. ('Thanks' to the noises last night!)

The train ride was GREAT for me with nothing but SLEEP. I even set the alarm to go off at about time of arrival so that I wouldn't end up in the middle of nowhere. This was how I regained my energy for the day to spend. Yet, after the ticket check, I was unable to get into sleep. :(

When I got off the train, I didn't get the Explorer ticket then coz I thought the round-trip would be more suitable for my journey. It turned out to be THE SAME! (of 6.99 quids!!!) If I had known it's the case, I'd have got myself the Explorer (at least that's something as souvenir!)

It's a UN on the bus - loads of people of different nationalities. I bet no one could tell me when to get off! :D A nice bus ride coz it's FAST and the scenery was superb.

STONEHENGE - a stone circle was what I saw that appealed to every visitor. Extremely mysterious of how people put those big stones into the shape. It must have cost millions of lives, sadly, like the Great Wall in China. One important thing I must say was the weather. Unlike yesterday, the sky was blue, the clouds were white and the sun - was at its 'peak'. It's so BOILING HOT and I had to put my hat and sun lotion on! The audio helped explaining the history of Stonehenge but I was feeling the boiling blood in me I had to rush for the seeing. The lunch I had there was good enough - a sandwhich with tuna mayonnaise and sweet corn.

I headed to the city centre of Salisbury at 1pm. It's a small town I would say but I loved the 'simplicity'. The stroll around the city centre was relaxing and I had taken some nice pictures. My main stops where the post office and most of all, Salisbury Cathedral. The cathedral was HUGE! The 4-quid donation was worth paying while St Paul's Cathedral charged you lots more for nothing but 'looking' - here, at least we could take photos! Since I wasn't at all a 'religious' person, I didn't join the guided tour. Besides, there're heaps of nannies in the group - NO WAY!


(from left to right: River Avon to Salisbury Cathedral, garden view, inside the cathedral)

I took the 4.20 train back to London Waterloo. Getting tired after last night and the day trip, I returned to Barbican and gave up the theatre idea - wise choice, after all. I could sleep at 9pm.

Trip to Britain -- Day 4 -- The Millenium Mile

The bed was 'unbelievably' soft that my back actually ached and I felt like I hadn't slept for ages. BAD!!! What's worse, the English weather had come back - grey sky and clouds and odd showers. The only good thing about travelling alone was to schedule own itinerary, like when to set off. I got up at 8am! Last night I bought myself cereal bars and (whole) milk for breakfast - fantastic! Though it's a terrible sleep I had last night, the breakfast was refreshing.

I set off at about 9.30am in order to catch off-peak tubes to places. But before that, I had to get myself an umbrella. It turned out to cost me bloody 9.50 quids!!! But, what could I do?

One good thing about rain was that it brought cooler weather. I arrived at Tower Hill station and there're already crowds of people pushing their ways to Tower of London. Don't wanna join them at all for 'jewellery exhibition'. But well, they're going to see the glamourous Great Star of Africa diamond, the largest and finest cut in the world!

I walked past the Tower Bridge and began my 'Millenium Mile' journey. The Design Museum was not in sight but I caught two interesting hip architecture, Greater London Authority Headquarters and the Scoop (what a good name!).


(from left to right: Tower Bridge, Greater London Authority Headquarters, The Scoop)

The most amazing stop along the Millenium Mile was certainly Shakespeare's Globe Theatre for me! It's hard (yet easy) to believe the tickets to any Shakespearean plays were mostly sold out, except the standing (yard tickets). Well, I just didn't think my legs could stand the 2-hour performance. I actually gave up the idea but access the theatre by joining the theatre tour. The tour (including the exhibition) cost me 9 quids (holy s***!). The experience was nice after all. Not only would I be able to see the globe theatre, the tour guide had been extremely resourceful as to provide us with lots of information, namely the difference between the seats, the yard standing, and the puritans vs theatre. And of course, some more quids were 'lost' at or 'sucked' from the shop! :D

I was so indulged in the Shakespeare's tour, I almost forgot the time. It's already 12 when I stepped out from my 'wonderland'! The next destination was Tate Britain (by 1pm) - NO WAY! I walked as quickly as I could, passing Tate Modern and Gabriel's Wharf, stopping a while for Southwark Cathedral, getting quick lunch at the film cafe of National Film Theatre, and sweeping Jubilee Garden and London Eye. At last, I managed to get to Lambeth Bridge by 1.30pm and got my way to Tate Britain. By the way, the walk was just FANTASTIC along south bank!

I rushed to the galleries for Turner; lucky enough I caught the guided tour up in the first hall of the Turner galleries. Just loved the 'free' and 'paid' tours today coz these really helped people know more about what they couldn't get from the audio commentary.

After Tate Britain, I headed to Oxford Circus for the TIC, yet turned out to be a shopping tour - at FCUK and Clarks. I bought a bag and 2 pairs of shoes (GOODNESS!). My legs sore and I decided to give up TIC and went to Leicester Square for theatre ticket (esp. Les Miserables).

Les Miserables didn't have good seats and at the time, I got a call from Luica. We planned to meet up at Tottenham Court Road for books and dinner. But before that - time for unloading!

I bought three good books - The Time Traveller's Wife, On Beauty and Freakonomics for around 17 quids - still a bargain. While I was worrying over how to pack all things into my backpack later on, we reached the fine Italian restaurant, Carluccio's. GREAT MEAL! Most of all, I enjoyed the chat with Luica about all things! :)

Trip to Britain -- Day 3 -- London Market Walks 2

Woke up at 8am. It's not a very good sleep coz I could feel the tiredness, yet I brought myself up and took the notebook to write down what happened yesterday. Finally, I washed myself at around 9am and I felt more refreshed.

A nice coffee was my breakfast - a stimulating drink. We went to Columbia Street, the 'flower market', together (this time with Brad, too! :)) by bus. What a comfy ride! I couldn't actually take a bus myself here unless I knew pretty well about the bus route! After getting off the bus, we could see people carrying pots of plants from the other side of the street - could really tell where the market was then. We came across an upstairs 2nd hand bookshop but the price was still too high. Anyway, we squeezed ourselves into the crowds and later found a shop selling salami, olives, bread, cheese and balsamic vinegar!

We walked to another market - Spitalfields and passed Brick Lane, a famous place for Indian food. I tried the salt beef bagel there (extremely nice to go with mustard!). The bagel itself was just so-so.

The market fascinated me with contrasting styles - old and modern. It was loaded with massive variety of goods - mainly clothes, accessories, photos, etc.

(<- Luica and Mandik, taken at Spitalfields)
Finally, we went back to Bow by the same bus (No.8). It's so bloody hot on the bus - like sauna as Luica said. I packed and got ready to City University Finsbury Residence at 4.45pm. I said a brief goodbye to Luica and Brad - but I really owed them a BIG THANKS!!! They had given me a nice start for my trip in Britain - comfy bed, nice meals and drinks, and wonderful walkabouts. Most of all, meeting friends is always FUN!

I took the tube to Barbican - it's so quiet everywhere on the streets. Anyway, simple check-in, I paid the money and got the key to my 4-night home. The room was clean enough with the basics. I mean what more I could ask for for 21 quids per night? The kitchen, though, was a bit messy so I decided not to eat there! I put down stuffs and ran quickly to supermarket. I saw costcutter on my way from the tube station to the residence but I wanted to take a walk round the place first. Luckily, I saw some people carrying Tesco bags from another direction, so I just follow the 'clue'. GREAT! There's a Tesco Express just one street away from the residence. I bought the 'necessary' things - water, milk (:D), cereal bars and my dinner! I decided to explore the residence for some time so I didn't go anywhere else. Having unpacked all the stuffs, I could just relax and plan for my journeys in the coming days.

MISS YOU ALL!!!

My room at City University Finsbury Residence:

Trip to Britain -- Day 2 -- London Market Walks 1

We all got up at around 10am. A good sleep worths a million after taking long-haul flight! We had a cup of coffee and then Luica and I went to Portobello Market.

Crowds of people were squeezing into the market and I could really say we're rubbing shoulders! One horrible (but exciting thing) happened - an Asian woman suddenly slapped another (Jewish?) young lady's face. At first, I though it's more like women fighting for men, but it turned out to be pickpocketing. Anyway, it became HIGHLIGHT of the day!

We bought a strawberry and cream pancake and a box of fried seafood (with mussels, king prawns and crab claws) from the market and sat down to enjoy them on stairs. Wonderful food - at least a bargain with loads of seafood.

(Drinking at the George Inn ->)

We then headed to Borough Market - a food market, and I bought some dried cranberries. Later, we got ourselves some drinks at the George Inn. It calimed to be well known by Shakespeare and Dickens for its hospitality - well, who knows? :D Anyway, we spent the time there before the dance performance at Roundhouse.

The performance was TERRIFIC, with music and dance - the vibrance was intense and every audience enjoyed the freedom of moving around so much. GREAT show! By the way, it's called 'Fuerzbruta' - gotta find out what it meant.


After the performance, Brad joined us for dinner at Canary Wharf. We had fabulous chicken-wing meal. Sorry for Brad. He couldn't choose anything from the menu - too oily I guess! We then went to a pub for a dinrk after the meal. Nice!



One important thing I did today was to purchase the Oyster card (equivalent to HK's Octopus card), see:

Trip to Britain -- A LONG Day 1 -- HK->London

Zzzzzzzzzzzz... Haven't slept for almost 21 hours - testing my limits. Now that I'm extremely exhausted, I'd definitely try to sleep the most hours in the long-haul flight! The record last time was only 4 hours (2 in each 'session') in a 13-hour flight journey. The midnight spent was not as bad as I thought - thank god I slept till 12noon the day before. When I finished packing, it's just 2am. When it's 4.30am, I called the taxi driver up and I took a shower. It felt like a fresh day ahead after that, yet started to feel 'dumb' (or 'idle') when I was in the taxi. A 'bargain' journey - just HK$200.
The plane was delayed till 10am. One very bad thing about the arrangement was the communication of the staff. One was telling us to go to the lounge while another told us to get breakfast from the food court worth less than HK$45.

(<-- A nice French family with cute kids - in the airport terminal)
Torturing waiting till 9 something, I actually struggled to pull myself from falling asleep - yet, I was damn tired! Got on the plane at last at about 9.45am. After waiting for the two people next to me to settle down, I instantly fell asleep before the flight took off - not surprising to me at all! The sleep lasted for 2 and a half hours when the flight attendants woke me with the trolleys and the smell of the breakfast. Got up, took the breakfast (Chinese dim sum with 'siu mai', dumplings, fried bean curd rolls and a meat bun), watched 'Match Point' using Movie-On-Demand, I fell asleep again. This time it lasted for 3 hours - I broke the record! I slept for 5 and a half this time on a 12-hour flight journey. I felt much better after the two naps and then I watched '8 Elbows' and enjoyed the nice snack pack at the same time.

I like Qantas about the service (or food) - I've never had FRUIT on the planes. This time it's not mixed fruit (sliced/diced) but the whole apple. Great! Snacks were fantastic with KitKat, water, mint sweets and crackers. And though the movies might not be as 'new' as I expected, I liked the 'MOD' and the massive variety of choices, with which I could choose my favourite ones at any time I wanted.

Having finished 'lunch' (beef in red wine sauce - just so-so!), it's 1 hour to land - GREAT!

The immigration didn't take long but the 'claim luggage' was CRAZY - took me almost 45 mins to get my backpack! Anyway, I took the bus No.20 (free shuttle) from Terminal 4 to Hatton Cross tube station, heading to Bow. The tube was so cramped at around 5pm - it's a bit embarrassing to squeeze myself out from the compartment.

Finally, I reached Luica's place in Bow Quarter - NICE one! We chatted for a while and it's already 8pm, so we went to get a drink at a pub nearby and a bar restaurant for dinner (Indian food). Luica and I chatted for some more time when she showed me her small library - the night ended with lots of laughters! :D

軟硬天師Long Time No See演唱會

曾幾何時與哥哥迷上軟硬，每日準時收聽《老人院》，很喜歡「整蠱電話」－「三sprite」（最深印象）。早前知道他們開演唱會，根本沒有機會買門票（星期一早上九時開售，那時還是七月頭）。今晚在機緣巧合下竟然有機會去看，實在很興奮。我最愛阿葛這個「軟天師」，他比較感性；阿Jan這個「硬天師」，他則比較像個「冷面笑匠」。想了一想，發覺自己有點像阿Jan，因此很喜歡阿葛。（很難明吧！）
聽回那些「廣播道Fans殺人事件」、「只因喜歡你」、「川保久齡大戰山本耀司」等等，很有回到「童年」時的感覺。很喜歡他們的歌、形象設計、舞台設計，還有那澎湃的現場氣氛（觀眾在紅館站起來的機會太少吧！）（原來，在燈暗的現場亮起手機的燈光是可以很美）。
最愛的還是阿Jan與阿葛憶述從相識到一起做節目、分開發展到一起開這個演唱會的過程。其中，在唱以下這首歌的時候，竟然有想哭的衝動：

朋友　我當你一秒朋友　朋友　我當你一世朋友
奇怪　過去再不堪回首　懷緬　時時其實還有
朋友　你試過將我營救　朋友　你試過把我批鬥
無法　再與你交心聯手　畢竟難得有過最佳損友

從前共你　促膝把酒傾通宵都不夠　我有痛快過你有沒有
很多東西今生只可給你　保守至到永久　別人如何明白透
實實在在踏入過我宇宙　即使相處到　有個裂口
命運決定了　以後再沒法聚頭　但說過去　卻那樣厚

問我有沒有　確實也沒有　一直躲避的藉口　非甚麼大仇　
為何舊知己　在最後　變不到老友　
不知你是我敵友　已沒法望透　被推著走　跟著生活流　
來年陌生的　是昨日　最親的某某

生死之交當天不知罕有　到你變節了　至覺未夠
多想一天彼此都不追究　相邀再次喝酒　待葡萄成熟透
但是命運入面每個邂逅　一起走到了　某個路口
是敵與是友　各自也沒有自由　位置變了　各有隊友

早知解散後　各自有　際遇作導遊
奇就奇在接受了　各自有路走
卻沒人像你讓我　眼淚背著流
嚴重似情侶　講分手

有沒有　確實也沒有　一直躲避的藉口　非甚麼大仇
為何舊知己　在最後　變不到老友
不知你又有沒有　掛念這舊友　或者自己　早就想通透
來年陌生的　是昨日　最親的某某
總好於那日我沒有　沒有　遇過某某

很有... 「觸景傷情」的感覺...
