                            An hour trip down south by train from Birmingham, came to Bicester, a beautiful village just north of Oxford. 

                            It's been a while since I last saw him, but Sam seems to be doing okay.  When I arrived at Bicester station
                            around three in the afternoon, Sam was waiting for me in the car.  On our way to Sam's house, we stopped
                            by at a petrol station where he works - as he is fond of cars, this is the perfect work place for him. 

                            This is the second time that I came to Sam's house and today as well, we took Sam's dog peggy and her
                            neighbor friend Hugo for a walk in the country side which  spreads immediately from his backyard.  We walked
                            for more than an hour and I played like a kid with the swings which came to me so fresh as I haven't done it
                            for years and years.




                            Today was actually Sam's sister Charlotte's GCSE grade publication day.  She've done very well and we all went
                            to the pub to celebrate.  Sam's family is so warm and always so kind to me which I'm so thankful for.
                            I caught a train at past nine in the evening and left for Birmingham.  In the train, as I took out a book from my
                            backpack, I noticed something which shoudn't be there inside my bag.  Damn... I forgot to give the gift!  Ah, I'll send it!
