Holiday 2011: Day 2

Posted inFilms/TV, ReflectionsNo Comments
Got up and had a shower. The shower was nice. The bathroom in general was quite nice too. Then we had a fried breakfast. This, supposedly, was to fill us up so we wouldn't want lunch 'til later in the day, but I found I was still hungry at the usual lunch time. We went to Paignton Zoo on day…

Holiday 2011: Day 1

Holiday! I got up at 5am so I could jump in the shower first (I must have a shower every morning - I get terribly sweaty at night), and be ready for the designated 7am departure time. Funny - 5am is my usual Saturday morning wake-up time, so it wasn't too much bother for me. As I said, 7am was…

Somethingfest was a success

Our yearly pilgrimage to Coventry was a success yet again - it was great to see everyone and catch up and stuff. A massive thank you must be extended to Hannah and Karl for once again hosting such an eclectic mass of bodies in their home, it's really appreciated.

That came around quickly, didn't it? 2011 already, wow. Well, we didn't drink any cocktails this year, in fact, we went to bed early as we were both suffering from Swine Flu - not the best way to spend a New Year's Eve. Anyway, to 2011! I hope it is prosperous and joyful for you all.

We were quite refined, Jane and I, we went as Gangsters, complete with a pink tommy-gun. Jane had a whale of a time, doing all the…

Marshmallows

We had a BBQ on Saturday, and after all the meaty food was consumed, we went back out to the gently smouldering barbecue and roasted some Marshmallows in the darkness. Claire had to show me what to do, as it was the first time I had ever tried roasting marshmallows. They were quite tasty! The alcohol I had consumed earlier…

MGM – Red wine, cheese on toast and N.O.M.A.D.

This is one of my earliest memories, I was still in Middle School at the time. I was staying round my friends house and when his Mum went to bed, we silently made our way downstairs. We put the Spectrum +3 on and played this really odd game called N.O.M.A.D., made ourselves some cheese on toast and had a glass…
