Its been a hell of a weekend, and…by god this place is a mess. Friday night I was staring to worry nobody was going to show up, where we were all meeting etc, when jen popped me a line saying everyone was descending on my place imminently. Then suddenly everyone was here. Well, Emma, becs, Scott, ness and, of course, charlotte. You can probably guess what happened there – it involved alcohol, and lots of it. They decided to change in and around my room, using it as a base for the night. The plan was that they would return after brandies to collect their stuff. Poorly on my part, I drank too fast and was very drunk by ten, so true to her old form and with her trademark ‘oh no’, charlotte put me to bed. Problem was, everyone wanted their stuff, so at 1am there came a huge banging on my door.

Needless to say, the next day I was quite hangover, but was able to go for lunch in the plough with Emma and charlotte, thence to becs and Scott’s in burslem. We spent the afternoon chatting, then came back to campus. C dropped me off at mine to go get ready. There was something of a cock-up here, as c told me switch and Nicky were coming to mine 15 mins later, but they weren’t. anyway, when charlotte returned, she fed me a shop-bought sandwich, got me girlified, and we set off to a social in Kellet. This time, I decided to pace myself, and, with the help of red bull I lasted till about 1, talking, dancing etc.

At time of writing, charlotte will be heading home, but later today I should be meeting switch, Nicky, rocky and Emma for lunch. It has gone too quickly, and I’ll miss them even more because of it. And yet I doubt very much that it’ll be the last I’ll see of my old crew.
