Ok so i’ve been told that i’ve been neglecting my blog so i guessed i’d better get writing. Since the last time i wrote, we’ve had another night out,so i’ll give you a run-down on the events....
Friday 11 may : Beach party @ the cock and bull.
We went dressed in our beach gear- me in my new bikini !! and had loads of fun. For sum reason i deceided nt to go with my usual vodka and juice but instead opted for gin and tonic which i would soon realise was a very bad idea indeed. We got to chattin with the locals, took loads of pics and just generaly had a good time. We also went bobbing for plastic toys- bobby won a kiss frm the barman (which he didnt claim !), ryan won a pint of warm water that he had to down, grace wona a t-shirt and i won an irish music cd !!! very random indeed. While i ws sitting at the bar grace and i began chatting to some guy that works in a t-shirt printing shop called Yummi (or something like that), when i asked him where it ws he drew us a map- ON MY ARM ! by this point i think i must have been tipsy because i let him do it so i cnt blame him really ! there ws also a girl at the bar, dnt know who she is, but me her and grace rapped the whole theme tune to ‘the fresh prince of bel air’- i ws very proud of all of us- well done girls ! grace got very excited when a guy called Ellis walked into the pub and told us that he ws from the OC (grace loves the oc).having never really watched it i thought i ws in the presence of an actual american star and got quite excited myself, only to be told that he ws frm OC the place not the TV show- too much gin i think ! it seems that after my 3 drinks off vicky (i dnt think i paid for them either) i went a bit down hill and i cn remember sitting by the bar doin a sudoku when nicola asked me to go with her to the toilet. Off we went to the loo and as nicola ws doin what she needed to i (apparently) pushed her off the loo and threw up !!! next thing i know im outside the pub crouching next to a bin being sick with a very drunken zoe tryin to look after me !!! i dnt actually remember much of the being sick part of the night except that i kept apologising and saying « i’m 22 i’m too old to get drunk ». i cn vaguely remember bein carried upstairs by andrew, zoe and vince, and apparently as soon as vince put me to bed i went straight to sleep. You see, i didnt quite make it home so i had to stay at the pub again lol and nicola stayed too. We both slept in andrew’s bed while he kipped in with rich downstairs. Them guys are great ! i owe them so much ! its actually very lucky that i didnt go home that night because the morning after, we got the tram home and it made me feel sooooooooo sick, god knows how ill i might have been had i actually tried to go home.
Sunday 13 may : mam and dad came to visit
Went to meet mam and dad at their hotel which meant that i got to venture to the other side of the river- such a daredevil ! i showed them around a bit then we went to cassolette for some tea and a catch-up. Unfortunatley monday ws a bit of a grim day but nevertheless i took mam and dad all around the town and showed them some of the places that we always go to (nameley the cock and bull !!). we had lunch in a little resaurant where i had my first cup of tea since the end of march !!!! soooo happy
for tea we went to the other side of the river again and to a restaurant called « au bureau », it ws really nice and even had a great view of the river.
Tuesday and weds i left mam and dad to do their own thing so not much happened really. Tuesday me, grace, ryan and martyn deceided to ride the tram to end of line A just to see what ws there-the answer ?.... nothing ! then ryan and i went for a mcdo’s (so naughty). Weds ws quite possibly of the most boring days of my time here. Did nothing except eat and type up my project.
Thursday went to an italien resrtaurant with mam, dad and grace then on to the cock and bull for a few beverages with the girlies !
Write again after the weekend !!!!!!
