Currently, I'm sat in the living room of my parents house in Appledore. Mum's snoozing in an armchairs, Dad's got his headphones on, listening to the radio, and there's a TV program on with Anne Widecombe looking at an old house. I like evenings like this.
The weekend has been pretty packed so far, yesterday morning I woke up at 5am, was in a taxi by 6am and on a train out of Manchester by 7. The train journey down to Devon took 5 hours, I then spent 2 hours wondering round Exeter before meeting my friend Fleur, who I haven't seen now for around 6 years, in the city centre. We went to the Cavern club to get lunch, something we used to do regularly when we were in our late teens/early 20s. Then we went for a wander round, went to an american sweetshop and then to the Cathedral where she volunteers doing conservation work each weekend, she wanted to show me a plaque on a wall with a silly name on it. Afterwards I left her at her workplace and got the train up to Barnstaple.
My parents were waiting for me there and I was home here by 6pm. By 9.30pm I was out again for drinks with Matt D in Bideford. We went to the Heavitree, Crabbies and then Ceasers. I drank too many JD and cokes and stumbled back through the front door here around 2am. I had to ring the doorbell and get Mum up as I couldn't unlock the door. I only later realised I had been trying my Manchester doorkey in the door.
Today I slept until midday, got up for two pieces of toast, then got back into bed. Spent the afternoon chatting to Fleur online, going over our old livejournals and reminiscing, this afternoon I then went out for a meal at Country Cousins in Westward Ho! with Mum and Dad, we had a carvery and for desert I had a chocolate nut brownie with cream. So right now I am currently feeling very lethargic and in need of sleep. Bedtime will come very soon.
Not looking forward to going back to Manchester tomorrow if I'm honest. Really do miss being down here so much.
