Yesterday was a really unusual day for me. Lots of things happened that I could never have expected. A complete and utter day of Random.
I was in Southwold for my Dads birthday this weekend, was wonderful to see parents again. Went to the Nellie but other than that pretty much stayed in. The house is looking lovely.
In the morning I got a text from Naomi telling me that Gordon was beaten up and in hospital. I hope he's on the mend now! Bastards. :/
On the train journey back to Southampton in the afternoon, I travelled through Liverpool Street. Bursting for a pee, I went down a flight of stairs to the toilet entrance. Twenty god damn pence to take a piss! I was (and am still) bloody shocked. I can't have spent more than a minute in there. That £12 an hour!!!! And they didn't even f'ing undo my flies or hold it for me whilst I went. Nor was I pampered with perfume on the way out. Shocking.
But on my arrival back in Southampton, Andrew, very kindly, had worked out which train I was on and was there to pick me up. Hugs for you Andrew.
Soon after that, Chris, Andrew and I were out playing Bowling with Adam and Kelly. I played apaulingly, I was upset depressed at my utter lack of skill. But it was good fun, none the less. Oh, and whilst we were waiting for Adam and Kelly to arrive, I beat Chris 2-1 in a best of 3 competition at air hockey. Skill.
Whilst there I got a phone call from Stuart, with whom I haven't spoken in an age. Which sucks really, he's a great guy. Damn me and my lack of keeping in touch.
We finished that at around 10pm, wanting to go to a pub for a drink. Due to the stupid 10:30pm licensing laws on Sunday. So we went in search of a venue with a late license, ending up in Yates in Southampton City Center. One of the bar staff randomly came up to me and said "You're from Hitchin, aren't you?" With a bewildered look, I responded afirmitively, to which he said "Yeah, you're from HBS.
Then to cap off the random talking to Hitchin people, I got a text from a rather drunken Jenni. I hope she's not feeling to rough this afternoon.
And I was also texting back and forth with Tamsin for parts of the day. I'm really looking forward to going up to see her now.
So, what a long post. All about one 24 hour period of which I was only awake 14. So, a random but very enjoyable day. There should me more of them like that one.
And later this evening, Andrew and I are off to see the new Harry Potter film. Review to follow.
tooltip-tastic.
