Well I did manage to get to the humungous firework display tonight in
town, but noone I was with wanted to go to the fair afterwards so I'm back
here being bored and lonely...

Guy Fawkes tried to blow up all the politicians in the country. He failed.
Why are we celebrating?

Plus ca change? We'll see. For now I'll just tease you a little more by
saying that 2 people are leading on 4 crushes each, one of them is from
England and the other from mainland Europe. More votes welcome...

OK, so I wasn't really with it when I wrote this. Yes, it was Stevie not
Mick that we were talking to on that occasion - Mick was otherwise
occupied ;-)

But seriously though, when you get the chance to talk to a member of B&S,
what exactly can you say to them without embarrassing yourself? I
certainly haven't managed it yet... You can't really just say "Hi, I think
you're great, will you go to bed with me?" can you?

Right, I'm off to see if there's any parties going on in people's rooms in
this place that I can crash. Better get some sleep at some point though -
I've got a free dinner (wiuth free alcohol! Woohoo!) tomorrow night and
then I've got to get up at 6.30am on Saturday to go to Nottingham...
Welcome to the first train to hangover central...
