A Birthday Party.. At Printworks.. and The JOURNEY back

Went out yesterday to celebrate another birthday party...:)
Had a yummy big platter but i was a bit too full to actually enjoy it being the pig i was having binged on a late lunch.
I found someone who is scared of me.. he denies it.. but i think it may be true.. haha.. finally someone is scared of me... *i'm sure he will be reading this blog*
I got a helium balloon at the party (such a kid huh?) yeap and then.. i kinda was a clumsy woman and let it go.... it's still floating at the ceiling of the Printworks..
The scary thing about this night was the journey home. Well me and yvinne managed to get the tram from Shudehill because of the change in the service for that particular day. Just a few stops later this group of people who appeared to be a family got into the end of the tram. Within a little while there was an argument... i assumed it would be about football since the world cup in on and all.
2 people who had been sitting at the back in the midst of the arguments and the shouting moved to sit in the front ..
Yvinne had been holding her helium balloon up high.. once the arguments got scary... she gently pulled it down....
(that was funny~!!! what an odd thing.. a balloon in the midst of their fight?)
Anyway, the fighting.. and i am sure there was some physical violence as well continue for about 10 stops i think..
when i curiously looked behind us i noticed they had beers on them. There was a elder looking man.. hitting two teenagers..
just as we were about to reach our stop... the fight moved up the tram and got more violent.. there was punching and kicking and beer can flew of the guy's hand.. somehow... the argument reached where we were sitting... the two people involved in the argument were blocking either tram door .. i don't wanna go pass them and say "excuse me"!!! in the enraged state they were it.. i'm pretty sure i'd get knocked in the head..
Eventually Yvinne and I managed to slide pass the teenager... we figured.. it would be safer to go pass him than the elder man who was hitting them...
As we were leaving we saw the teenager take a glass bottle of vodka out of his pocket and hold it up as if he wanted to hit the older guy with it...
we have no idea what happened next because.. we were fine and safe and running across the road to our little flat.. .in SALFORD.
i hope it all turned out ok and no one was hurt..
i wondered why the tram driver did not stop the tram and control the situation. But as i walked out, i noticed it was a female conductor..
I CAN'T WAIT TO BE BACK IN MALAYSIA AWAY FROM ALL THIS ... errrr. TRAM ADVENTURES...
