Afternoon tea, pubs, podcasts and more

The Narnia books are a lot better when you don't know what's going to happen in them. I read The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe and then Prince Caspian and yes they were good books, but I knew what was going to happen and for me, a book is never as good when you know how it ends. That's why I usually like reading the book before watching the film or TV series that's based on it. This evening I started on The Voyage of the Dawn Treader and already I like it more, and that's completely because I don't know what happens in the end (or the middle or the beginning for that matter).

So yesterday me, Paul, Catherine and Greg went round to Mhairi's and had a spot of afternoon tea. She had made scones and a carrot cake, and although the carrot cake didn't quite live up to mine, it was still really good :D We had tea, coffee and Pimms as well. Pimms o'clock! xD

Then Mhairi had to do some cleaning and Catherine had to go to work for a couple of hours so me, Paul and Greg decided we'd go down to the Birkhill Inn for a few pints. It was good fun, especially when we were recording ourselves a podcast (our second, if you want me to send you either/both of them then email me - personalidiot@hotmail.com). Mhairi and Catherine came and joined us later and then we all decided to go stay at Paul's because he had an empty house. That is all of us except Greg, who chose to stay at home and try take sunrise photos instead xD

Paul's was good, I bought myself a 70cl of Gordon's gin and 2 bottles of tonic water, so it was tonic water for me. Paul had himself some beer and Mhairi and Catherine were drinking vodka. It all started well with us watching St Trinians (damn good movie, it was at least the fourth time I'd seen it) and then some TV, but then Mhairi decided that the contents of her stomach would have a better time in Paul's sink than where they were supposed to be and prompty evacuated the lot of them. Once more I was the one holding back her hair... not that she hasn't had to do it for me often enough xD

Didn't do as much today, the 4 of us just lounged about Paul's house until we had to drop of Mhairi and Catherine and Mhairi's mum's work so she could give her a lift home. Paul came back to mine's afterwards and we had a Chinese for tea. It was good, and I once more had two starters ^^

Tomorrow I'm going to a wee, although actually quite big, perty at Max's house so that should be good, especially as I'm told he has a rather large house which even has a sauna... Can't wait for that xD

So I'll see you all some time later... And hopefully tell you the tales of the party xD


Oh, and PS (see Paul, it goes at the end): Good luck Paul! xD
