Of Moon-trips and jellybeans

Sometimes I forget how lucky I am in having wonderful friends that are prepared to not only tolerate, but also spend time with me doing things that are F.U.N.

Thursday – Drinks at the Stratford Haven with Laura, Susie and Larah with smutty conversation throughout.

Friday – Night down the pub with Duncan and Greg the new housemate, followed by too much pizza and a great deal of laughing at South Park and Scrubs.

Saturday – Murder Mystery evening at Jenny’s with the guys and girls from work. Spent the evening dressed as an Italian Mobster in winkle-picker shoes and became sufficiently inebriated to walk the four miles home in the cold. A chav may have been menaced in the process.

Sunday – Embarked upon a Trip to the Moon with Lucy. Discovered gardens, both hidden, secret and walled, a dragon’s cave, a spooky tunnel, a bed covered in Chinese silk, 40,000 stuffed birds and assorted animals, jelly beans, Sunday lunch and the most ridiculous film I have ever seen. Ever. *

Monday – Lay in the park with Chris, talking about how clouds look like things and why it is that you always end up with one sock (goblins).

Tuesday – Meal at fancy restaurant in town because Laura has a French Friend visiting and it’s an excuse to dress up as Regency dandies and have ‘staff’ cook for us.

Wednesday – Day off.

Thursday – Pub quiz with the guys from work then a P.A.R.T.Y in town with Larah, Susie et al. Everyone’s welcome.

Friday – Nothing so far, but it’s just a matter of time. Invite me to something!

Like I said, I’m a lucky man.

* Note. Any talk of my setting off the fire alarms at Calke Abbey is nothing more than spurious rumour. I didn’t touch anything, I was just looking.
