Orange have decided that anyone who doesn't have an orange mobile number can't use their email service any more. Hence I am locked out of this email address, so don't try and contact me there because I won't get it.

The last five weeks have been the busiest and most difficult I think I've had since I've been at uni. The work got very difficult, I was doing 11 hours of lectures a week across 3 modules and the usual coursework every week and trying to do the stuff in Chaplaincy that I normally do. Hence I have had no time to blog and at the moment most of it seems not to be worth it.

My parents have had some difficulty doing up 4 Gordon Street so my room is not ready yet and I will be going to stay at my grandma's house in Doncaster at the beginning of the holiday, I don't know when they will have my room ready.

Legomania

Possibly the most entertaining computer demo ever.

Friday evening Spent three hours on overcrowded trains travelling to northern leg reunion. I arrived at about 1930 and walked through the streets of Leicester navigating my way to the place by memory not wanting to get my map out because I would look lost in the middle of a city. I managed to get it right until I walked into the actual church rather than the old school house, but there was someone there who helpfully showed me the rest of the way. When I got there Matt Neville, Michelle and Chantal were there and we sat around talking and eating spaghetti bolognase while people arrived before going off to the pub(the Hind?) leaving a note telling people where we were. We all sat round a table at the side and I was talked into coming to watch the rugby final in the pub the next morning, having not up until this point ever followed rugby at all.

Saturday morning Everyone got up quite early and hurried down to the pub to watch the rugby except me who needed tea, Fay and Damien who had stuff to do. I had some breakfast there and eventually strolled down through the rain with Fay and got there in time for the end of the second half. Everyone was sat around the TV in the pub quite fixated on the match and the pub was serving breakfast but had run out of bacon. I didn't really get into it at first, but because it was so close at the end of the match, going into extra time, that I did. We stayed around for England to recieve the cup and then went back. Because it had gone on so long we went straight out again to go to another pub for lunch, and hurried down to the bus station but the bus was 20 minutes late. The pub was still serving lunch when we got there.
