Ok guys, blog time.
I’m sorry Joe, no delicious food for you this week; I did
make a pretty tasty looking sausage and mash but forgot to take a picture. I’ll
see what I can do this week.
So Juliet’s challenge. This is going to be a little tricky
as you guys have already gone and taken all the best ones. There were plenty of
awesome memories that looking through all the photos reminded me of. I’ll go in
order of blog days.
David, you are spot on, trees was a big deal in our
friendship I would say. We hung out quite a lot but mainly just at college
before that. A large part of this was due to not being able to drive so I think
passing my test a few weeks after also had a large part to play. So yeah, that
summer was when we started hanging out for real and I’m so happy we did.
Anyway, the challenge. I have two photos for you, firstly the world’s most
giant bartenders. This photo reminds me of chemistry which was probably the
first place we ever met when we were the world’s most tiny chemists. It also
just reminds me of all the fun times we have had doing silly things. Secondly I
have this Somerford picture. It was from the great summer of ’10 which was
pretty fucking great, so yeah, sums that up nicely I think.
Juliet, yours is easily one of the best pictures I have had
the good fortune to be in, great choice. For you I have this beauty from our
adventure to the beach. It was just a glorious day and we swam in the sea and
had a picnic. I can think of few more perfect days I have ever had.
Cath, for you I have two photos. Firstly there is this. I
can’t really remember the occasion but I do remember eating this burger and it
was delicious. Secondly I have this. I think it was taken at the Wheaty and it
is just a really lovely photo.
Josh, I have this for you. It was on the same occasion as
David’s photo for you. Lydiard is just such a nice place and that day sitting
there in the sun listening to you and David sing was the perfect way to nurse
my horrible hangover.
Finally, Tom. I have very few good pictures with you and me
in. This is probably due to the fact that you are almost always the man behind
the camera. I am so unbelievably grateful for this, having photos of all the
awesome things we’ve done together is amazing and I am so happy we will have
these memories forever thanks to you. I will try my best to get as many photos
of you as possible this summer. This photo of us is from a night at Jo’s house.
It was just a generally really nice night made all the better by your presence.
This has been my favourite challenge so far.
My week has really been very uneventful again. I learnt more
about brains, watched my friends band last night (they were pretty good),
worked some more on my big essay (I am pretty much done now :)).
Tomorrow I am going to varsity football. My friend Dan has
been promoted to first team right back which is pretty exciting. The match is
at Bristol Rover’s stadium and usually a few thousand people go watch so it is
a pretty big deal. Apparently UWE are better than us, but still, should be
quite fun.
Harry, I think you were just unlucky with your experiences
of Bristol folk. In general I would say they are a pretty friendly bunch, especially
with the accent, it is very hard not to sound friendly with one.
Yesterday in the post I got this. It was my birthday present
from Kerry and Matt (that’s right, they do joint presents now). Is it the first
official piece of kittens merch?
Only 2 weeks until Easter now and that is really excellent
news. I have had enough of uni for now.
BYE
