More Orientating

Today has been full of more instructions about life in the manor and discoveries.  The best part was when we hopped onto the coach and made are way to Grantham for our first shopping experience.  There is an awesome store called Poundland that is comparable to the dollar stores in the states.  We also went to a coffee shop and I purchased my first Earl Grey tea for "take away" or to-go.  I even added the suggested milk.  It was pretty good.  Also, so far we have noticed that either they don't charge taxes on the sorts of items we purchased, or the tax is built into the price because anything that was advertised to cost 8 pounds, literally cost 8 pounds exactly.  We walked around and got a little lost but it was really fun.  Tonight we have to dress up and attend the principal's address in which we will have a fancy dinner.  Well, Cheers!
