Haha, last night was fun, the first time I’ve been out since I got back to the Burg.
But this morning I did not smell like smoke.
Although I do smell like beer. Whatever.
Plus also I’m going down to Yorkshire land today for the weekend to meet Scott’s people. (Not Scottish people). This will be scary. TA TA.
Firstly, stop talking about Buffy. Buffy sucks.
Secondly, Mark, it’s Roddy Woomble. Seriously, you can get in trouble for saying Womble up here in Scotland. I nearly lost an eye the other night.
Ok, today, on the first week-iverssary of my 19th Birthday, I decided to celebrate with my Burg crew. I decided the best way to do this was to go ice skating.
People (more or less) turned up at 2.30 at the flat. From there Jo, Ruth, John, Alec, Claire, Kat, Lauren, Scott and I went to the bus stop where we caught the number 30 bus. This was the correct bus to get. We just messed up, as a group. I didn’t do anything wrong. Anyway, this is a bus group shot, missing a few people.
So it turned out that we missed our stop. And then the next 5 stops after that. So we had a fair treck to get to the ice rink. There were nine of us, we were on a quest, John pointed out that we were the fellowship of the rink. I laughed and told John I would use it then give him props. John, take your props. On the walk we found a play area. After a brief play, it was on to our destination.
We made it, with half an hour to spare. With such little time left, we knew we had to GET OUR SKATES ON! Haha, now that’s a good joke.
I have decided that people need awards after the skating. Here they are in surnamical alphabetical order:
Alec wins the award for most spectacular speed skating fall. It was the only fall…during the only race. But it meant I didn’t lose.
John wins the award for best (unintentional) tap dancing on ice performance. The spirit of the dance is within you.
Claire wins the award for THE MOST ANNOYING TOP. I know it’s not ice skating related but Claire, seriously, that top is annoying when stroked downwards.
Ruth wins the award for safest skater.
Josephine wins the award for best putting up with me picking stupid activites to celebrate my birthday with. Well done for not falling over Josephine.
Lauren wins the award for most unexpected skater. Thank goodness she found the tenner in her jeans pocket or she may not have been with us.
Kat wins the award for most ridiculous fashion choice for ice skating. Skinny jeans’d.
Scott wins the Billy Elliot award for aspiring talent. Reach for the stars.
I win the award for organisational nouse and for being a navigat0r X-traodinaire.
This is a group photo. Enjoy it.
Hopefully once I gather photos from other people there may be some more amusing ones. Wait and see!
We got back to the Burg yesterday. It was early evening and the skies were clear and blue. The sun was shining and I was warm. As we walked throught the streets there were people sitting outside the pubs drinking in the afternoon sun.
My city ROCKS and you are jealous.
It’s nice to be back here. Obviously I miss my peoples back home. It was excellent to catch up with all of you. I’ll see you all again in June though.
For Burgian people, be free on Tuesday for the ice skating trip OF A LIFE TIME.
I hate renting a film out and realising it has Sarah Michelle Gellar in it when it’s too late.
Firstly. Due to POPULAR demand. Here is me as the robot doing my patented robot guns.
You love it. There are more on Mark’s site. A veritable story board of them.
Also, thank you to everyone for your texts, comments, emails, pictures of accordians, it’s been AWESOME.
Now some of you may know I’ve been looking forward to a surprise that I was getting today. Obviously I had no idea what the surprise was, only that I was getting it at roughly 3.30. The surprise turned out to actually be a conspiracy where I seemed to be the only one who did not know. If you did know and you didn’t tell me, I’m annoyed at you. Official.
If you didn’t know what the surprise was then the suspense right now is probably killing you. We pulled up at the station today around 3ish to “get Dad a new parking ticket”. That was actually a mere ruse, a decoy, a downright lie because when mother and Amy came back they hadn’t managed to get the parking ticket but had actually suceeded in finding Scott.
I wanted a pony.
Happy Birthday to me (and Amy)
Happy Birthday to ME (and Amy)
Happy Birthday dear Sarah (and Amy)
Happy Birthday to ME (AND AMY)!
Yeah, I am 19 now and much older than YOU are.
I am also a robot.
