OK! Tis monday.... guess you could say a lot has happened since i wrote last. But i wont. I've been in Brighton for the last week or so.... it's still as horrid as ever....
I ended up spending a day in Leeds.... it was ok.... nothing spectacluar... lots of nice shops and not many museums.... my kinda place. However, there were no snow globes to be found. oh well. I do want to go back at some point. Looks like it would be a fun place to go out.
I spent the weekend just gone in London.... that was quite enjoyable. Saw my very first football game. QPR v Cardiff. It was quite interesting. Freakin cold sitting there.... right behind a pole that almost completely blocked one of the goals (apparently it was a cheap ticket.... now we know why).... luckily the only goal that was scored during the game was in the goal i could see. and also... luckily it was a QPR goal because if they lost Jamie would have been in a fairly foul mood all night.... similar to the mood i would have been in if Australia had lost the rugby league and/or rugby union....
I wouldn't say that I'm really into sport that much... but I love seeing the looks on English peoples faces when they lose... and "world champions" or not... it's still worth a laugh.
(oh my.... there are about 3 people singing alone to the terrible soundtrack within this internet cafe!)
went out in London on friday and saturday nights.... wont really speak about friday night other than i met up with bree.... i wont say any more about that, not worth going into (i realise most of you wont even know who she is).
Saturday night was loads of fun.... went for a few drinks with Beck and Jamie in Islington then to the Garage at Highbury corner... and as dark and dingy and dirty as that place is... it's still loads of fun (and a comfy walking distance from where we were staying)...
Sooooo......looks like i'm not going home for christmas.... and as much as that really upsets me... i know it's for the best because there's no way in the world i would come back if i was to leave... not that it is THAT painful here. I'm just really incredibly homesick.
So yeah.... more loitering until January.
Heading up to Nottingham on Wednesday to spend a couple of days there with a cousin who I have seen many times during my life but i dont think I have ever spoken to him (other than the phone conversation we had last night). Should be fun... i like all that Robin Hoody stuff.
Then back to Preston. OH. mmm.
I still want to go to York.... got a couple of weekends when i can fit that in.
Anyway.... best be off.
Might go write out some christmas cards. Fun.
