Ok! Amsterdam has been booked, both acommodation and flights! :D
This is a bit of an oddity really, I made a post about three weeks ago on the 'secret' HK Forums over at the Lionhead website asking when the next pissup would be, seeming as it's become a regular and enjoyable occurrence resulting in much hilarity and entertainment (see previous post on that matter!).
Somebody jokingly said that we should go to Amsterdam because that's where he lived and I decided that was actually quite a good idea and started asking around in that direction.
Another thread was made, and in it some interest was registered for a trip to Amsterdam and somehow between then and now I've managed to get 6 people over the internet to commit to a trip to another country. Amsterdam on the weekend of the 11th August then! =D.
I'm never a very assertive person when it comes to people so I'm quite proud this has finally happened. Of course, James helped organise the details of where we were staying and the flights, so it's thanks to him we're actually managing the logistics of it all :D
The guest list?
Not bad at all eh? It's shaping up to be a most excellent weekend of shenanigans and tomfoolery (hey wot?)
It's also my birthday this week, or so Outlook claims. In celebration of this dubious fact I shall be going out and getting drunk, not once, not twice, but three times.
Tomorrow I'll be cooking chilli for my new housemates (who by the way, are awesome). I want to tell the world about these guys but it can wait until we're drunk and I can do it safely without embarassment :)! Then we'll be heading for a quiet drink or two at BoBs (JAAAAAGERBULL!)
On Thursday I'll be travelling into town to meet Andy Quayle (an old ... friend? acquaintance? accomplice? ), James and possible someone else from school and possibly Emma seeming as it's on her home turf. There shall be both Jager and Bull there also. (JAAAAAGERBULL!!)
Friday I have not yet organised anything, so if anybody has any ideas or plans..? I'd quite like to watch Die Hard 4.0 but it really depends if anybody is around.
Saturday... oh Saturday, deary me! I did the bad thing and organised an event on Facebook. Of course, nobody is currently in the local vicinity but perhaps we might get five or six people into BoBs to enjoy watching me drink myself into oblivion? (JAAAAAGERBULL!!!!!!!). Ben and Philip are coming down so it's not all bad! :D
Today I recieved (promptly!) my P45 from DriveWorks meaning I might possibly get paid by the university this month (Gasp!). I also received a pile of bills and a nice good luck card signed by everybody in the DriveWorks office :). I could be soft here and say it meant a lot to me and I will - thanks guys!
Thanks also to Maria for penning a little note stuck to this little pile of mixed goodness - I miss you too!
