"What is your greatest weakness?"

“Well, as I’m still a uni  student, doing things on the cheap is something I've had to learn over the last few years, and just the weekend before last, myself and my 2 best mates had a really wonderful day out that cost next to nothing.




It was a bank holiday weekend, and we really wanted to have a special day out, as the weather forecast was perfect, and we really needed to get away from our studies. 




To do anything in the city, especially during a holiday weekend, always costs a lot of money, and as we were flat broke,  we decided to look for somewhere to go outside of the city. One of the guys came up with the idea of riding our bikes to a very beautiful park and lake, about 15 km outside of the city. 




We all agreed it would be a great idea, and each chipped in some cash, so we could buy some nice food in the local supermarket, as there is a barbeque area in the park which is free to use.
It turned out to be a really wonderful and special day, and was as cheap as chips, as riding our bikes meant there was no transport cost, and entry to the park was actually free. I think in total we spent about 24 dollars on the food between the three of us, and it really goes to show that it’s still possible to have a really special day out that doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
