From this school trip, I am left with surprisingly few concrete memories of the trip itself. We saw a castle, we were where the TV series Heartbeat was filmed and we learned that there had been Vikings in York. Me and Thomas learned that if you run across a road, the drivers who saw us would accelerate towards us and honk like hell.
Thomas and I found a small gambling den on which we spent half our weekly salary. I bought two souvenirs for myself; an English game magazine and the CD single "Everything's gonna be ok". Along with the game magazine came a CD with game demos, including Need for Speed 3: Hot pursuit and Carmageddon 2: Carpocalypse now!, two games that would help shape my interests.
