Magical Mystery Tour…

As I sit here waiting for stuff to print out I thought I may as well give you a quick update.

As usual not a lot has happened, went out last Friday with Gemma and Jo, we went to the old royal oak first, as soon as we walked in though we noticed that we were the youngest people there, it was an over 30’s disco so we decided to get back in the car and try somewhere else.

We went to this pub called the boot, it seemed like a very nice pub at first, we got our drinks and then looked round for seats, that’s when we noticed something, not only could we not find any seats but this pub was full of couples, although judging by their body language they weren’t with their spouses, I’m just glad I didn’t see anybody I know in there.

We quickly finished our drinks and headed off to the plough, someone in there decided to put mayonnaise in a glass of wine, it looked just like baileys and probably tasted the same. We then went to Big John’s and then back to Jo’s house where we watched Dawn Of The Dead.

The next day was really warm and sunny, I met up with Adam for a quick drink in the Masons, Gemma joined us before having to go home so I went back to Adam’s house and played Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas for a while, I wasn’t very good at it so I decided it would be more fun to smash up lorries with golf clubs instead and beat policemen to death with bunches of flowers.

In the evening I went to the plough with Adam and Gemma, not much happened, I remember I was very hungry as I hadn’t eaten all day.

Sunday was pub quiz day but due to our losing streak at the red lion we decided to give the fieldhouse a try, when we got there me, Gemma, Adam and Alex met up with Carl and Ralph and their friend (who’s name I didn’t catch). As we started the quiz all of a sudden loads more people joined us, we had a team of 13 people and came 4th I think which wasn’t bad.

When I got in I watched Requiem For A Dream on Film Four, it was a really good film and I recommend it, especially if you enjoyed Trainspotting.

Monday we went to Carl’s house.

Tuesday we went to Carl’s house again.

While we were there we met Carl’s new housemates, their names are Kate and Claire, they seems like nice girls, they officially move in today so it’s going to be interesting to see if they get Carl doing the cooking and cleaning and bringing out his feminine side, or indeed the other way round.

Wednesday I sat on my ass all day.

Thursday I decided to be a good student and go to the library (yes, really the library this time), I got 3 big books on war for my contextual studies project on war photography and then had to walk all the way back uphill with these books.

As I was on my way to the library I saw a Chav starting a fight on a disabled guy, luckily the Chav walked off, as I was coming back from the library there was the same arsehole smoking a joint as the bus stop bragging about what he did, I hate it around here.

In the evening Gemma picked me up, we were going to go to Birmingham but after taking a wrong turning we realized we were heading towards Wolverhampton, so we gave Jo a ring.

We met Jo at her student place, the security was pretty tight, we were lucky we didn’t have to have our eyes scanned and our fingerprints taken, it was quite a nice place, they had a notice board with just a TV licence on it which made me laugh.

We drove into the town centre, we got caught in the one way system where we kept having to turn left, after going round in circles about 5 times we turned round and found somewhere to park.

We went to the Royal London, it reminded me a bit of Yates’ in Solihull, when we found some seats this bloke with dreadlocks asked us if we liked ’hard house’ …what does he take us for?

Congratulations to Ralph and Kirsty who got engaged on Monday.
