Not much really happened during the majority of last week. Most of the highlights were at the weekend.
First off met Yhan, Eleanor, Dave, Mike and Chris and went to the Mandarin Garden on Friday night. Had a meal courtesy of YhanEl and then went out to several pubs…. if I remember correctly.
Once the evenings entertainment had subdued we ended up in the City square and decided to do a little swimming in the fountains there
Once out Mike and I went to our respective homes to get changed, and once I was dry I got my unicycle and went to join the others in the square for some unicycling fun.
Ended up riding around the city with lots of drunk people before heading back to Daves’ via the all night bakery. On the way back people were returning home from the clubs and a few of them had a ride on the unicycle. I must say it was a crackin’ way to cop a feel of a couple of ladies
(Well okay it was only one, and I was only helping her keep her balance)
On the Saturday I got up, managed to get more memory for my camera, a whole 512 MB
, and then headed down to Leeds to see Nick and his new wife Amandah. A rather uneventful journey down. Met him at his home, grabbed a shower and then went to the party and consumed too much booze.
It was good to see him, shame I didn’t see more of the folks from home. Amandah seems nice although I didn’t get to speak to her much, they were both under too much pressure from family. Once the party was over I waited around for a taxi and then went on a merry goose chase to get a hotel room. Ending up paying a whopping £92 to stay in rather nice 4 star hotel. Had a quick night cap in the hotel bar, and saw Mr Chris Moyles sitting chatting with people. A rather odd way to finish the night.
Sunday got up, had a superb and massive breakfast, before leaving back up to Dundee. Spoke to Nick briefly and we agreed to try and keep in touch a little better. Again the train journey upto Dundee was rather uneventful, most of it was spent sleeping. I’d totally forgotten that the Edinburgh fringe started on Sunday too. I had about an hour wait in Edinburgh Waverley, so I decided to have a wander. It was far too busy, so I took some of the back roads and just walked to Edinburgh Haymarket and got the train back.
That’s been about it really…. I must write more critique on things, something that others would actually like to read. Ho hum.
