Umm...

I really couldn't think of a good title for this post, so.... there you have it!

Whats been happening lately?
Well, I've finished my 2nd year without a hitch; didn't need to rush any work, I handed in all my work in good time. So I had more time to do my many other things.

A bit of bad happenings came around, Matt ended up in hospital at 6am in the morning, because he foot swelled up like a football. I heard it was rheumatoid arthritis. Nasty stuff, later that day, I paid Matt a surprise visit to the hospital.

Phil came down the same day too to, we went out and did the usual things,
Matts lady friend, GiGi came down at the same time, so we all went out together over the following days. Mmm... Fondue, Gigi made us some nice fondue, with strawberries and bananas. so nice.
(Whoever thought i had a thing about fondue and feet, please shuddup. you know who you are.)

Since it was Gigi's first time in Wales, i took her to Rhossili to partake in the viewing of the el naturale eye candy of the country.

Phil, Me, Gigi et Matt
Other things which i spent the remaining weeks of term was, I went to Alton Towers with Matt for the day,
It was such a great day! I haven't been to Alton Towers for at least 10 years i think.
We went on all the rides there, including Rita. Phwar, what a rush! 0 to 62 in 2.5 seconds. The ride ended in seconds, but we queued for the best part of an hour!

Pretty much everything was new there since I last went there a decade ago. Can't stress enough how much of a cool day it was.

Anyway, the end of term came round, and it was the hard time to say good bye to some people, with 'the girl' (read my earlier posts if you don't know about 'the girl'), since we kept communication to a minimum, I wanted to depart each other on good terms, so we won't have any on going hard feelings.
"It's YOUR fault, but... yea, lets go out for a coffee, set things right."
I won't say no more. We let things go to plan, then when she left, she was just a distant memory... maybe.

Time went on, I moved stuff into my new house, and I packed the contents of my room into my car; lowering my cars backside by an inch or so :P Lowered baby!

I've been home for 3 weeks now. Dad's been keeping me busy, i'm helping him rebuild our backyard covering.
It's 10+ years old, and made of corrugated poly carbonate sheets, the years of being bashed by the elements have made it leaky and partly mossy. So dad's ordered a load of poly carb wafers and timber to replace it all.
No hiring of monkeys to sort it all out, just me and dad.

Today, its 80% done, give us 2-3 days of non-rainy days to finish it.
I'll probably eventually show the before and after shots in my next post.


Well, thats pretty much summing up what i've been doing over the last month.

Till next time.
