Since completing the first year at Plymouth uni doing digital art and technology I spent about a week or two with flat mates drinking in various places and hanging out down at the sea front- jolly good fun, no harm done (ish).
I left by train in a rush, all a bit hectic but made it home eventually carrying my Mac in one bag that seemed to weigh a tonne and a big rucksack full of everything I would need at home, Italy sailing or the trip to India (watch this space). This was probably one of the worse days I’ve had for a while.
Spent some time with my gran in Barking, and enjoyed some good home cooking and relaxed a fair bit, and learnt how to us the sewing machine.
I went to see a friend Tom White at Essex uni- much fun and great to be back in the student atmosphere saw a few friends there so good to catch up. Dossed about a lot more as Tom prepared for his mooting (law student), although managed to get in 2 Barbecues and some nights drinking and going out etc…great fun to meet/be re-acquainted with some great people, see old mates and live the student lifestyle for a few more days, due to Essex uni breaking up fairly late it would seem.
On return home I stayed with my nan once more and instead of microwave currys at 4 in the morning and other random things whilst at Essex. I continued to sew up some of my clothes (with my nans help of course), and eating meals set out on the table with wine, side dishes, cutlery set out in just the right order and elaborate puddings too…have stopped going to the gym since uni also :/ ….o well hopefully windsurfing and swimming in Italy should sort that out...
I visited a mate Jon Leigh in horn-church (close enough to me but kipped on the sofa as parents are moving house- so it’s a state at the mo), I went to the pub for a catch up and a few beverages with Jon and another mate Rob- whose now working full time in London after graduating from UCL. A good night, and something kinda nice about going to a familiar pub (jj moons- for you lot who reside in Essex)
Had an afternoon in Covent Garden to meet Amy, Bryony, Sally and her London mate whose name I forget (my uni mates in Plymouth) Lunch at waggamamas (I think that’s how ya say it any way) followed by a wander round market stands and a few drinks after that, we had a good chat, cheap-ish drinks and I managed to pick up the two Borneo sunflower masks that I had left in Amy’s hands to drive home with – due to having an excessive amount of junk to lug home on the train.
