I know... It's been a while...

Surprise surprise, time for another one of those crappy catch-up posts... So you want to know what's been happening in my life since Paris? You don't? Well tough, I'm telling you anyway...

September

• Frankie (my wife)'s birthday, we went drinking at the Riverbar in Vauxhall with lots of scary lawyers and management consultants :)
• Phil moved down to London for his PhD, had a birthday party which I attended.
• Taking Helen up to Cambridge, almost killing us on the way...
• Meeting up with people and reinstalling Windows for Sophie whilst in Cambridge...

October
I can't actually remember much from this month... Went up to Cambridge once or twice to see Helen...

November

• Went up to see Helen again, to be told that we are no longer together.
• Hane and Toby's halloween party
• Met up with Emmie once or twice, was taught to play the drums :)
• Got a shiny new laptop paid for by work (Dell XPS M1210, 12.1'', Core 2 Duo 2GHz, 2GB RAM, 120GB hdd, GeForce Go 7400), I'm sure you all wanted to know the specs :) It's amazing, it actually runs Oblivion at 1280*800!)
• Met up with Sofija in Fulham for a long drinking session.
• About to become a house owner and landlord.

Right, now I've nearly caught up... Maybe I'll go into more details for this weekend :) So yesterday, after a busy morning of house viewings, I made my way up to Cambridge for the baby concert, but only after a quick coffee with Wei and dinner at Clowns with Helen, mmm pasta... :) The concert was basically a Beethovenfest: Coriolan Overture, Triple Concerto and Symphony No. 3 'Eroica'. It went on for considerably longer than I predicted, so Helen had to rush off at the end for her King's party, while I went to Trinity bar with orchestra friends before making our way to the real party venue - Mark's house. It was somewhat crazy, Simon made lots of random cocktails such as the 'pink eroica' and 'yellow triple concerto', and since I was standing right next to him, I managed to sample every single one of them, at a rate of one every 5 mins or so... So yeah, I got very drunk very quickly, and spend the next 4 hours drinking water... At least I was sensible... :) At some point I also managed to find myself on a sofa, underneath Emmy, Helen, Mihai and Dave, it looked slightly dodgy and was somewhat painful...


Chris also passed out, again, and had various stuff put on him similar to stuffonmycat.com... we were slightly cruel....


Not sure what time the party actually finished, but Helen and I shared a taxi to escape the scary people at 4:30am; I had Emmy's house all to myself :D I didn't actually go to bed until 7:30am though... don't ask me why...

Four hours later I was awake again, with a mild hangover. Mangaed to find my way to Newnham to meet Hannah, spent an hour in her room doing absolutely nothing before we decided to head into town, where we had ostrich burgers and walked around centre of Cambridge entirely aimlessly, it was fun :) Eventually we got bored so she ran away, and I found Phil who was just about to go back to London. We bought 11 hot and spicy chicken wings at the station, ate some of those on the train and spent the rest of the journey playing Metal Slug 3 on my laptop, it was great :) The rest of the chicken wings were demolished on the train from King's Cross to London Bridge, where I poked Phil goodbye and came home.

In other news, I'm now about halfway through Season 4 of Frasier. Slowly getting there... :)

Really ought to sleep now, before the sun rises again... But I shall leave you three random links, to make up for the absence of blogging :)
