Well, as i've not posted on here for nearly a month now, it's a bit late for a Christmas / New Year post, but still, hope everyone had a good one anyway!
Not sure why I haven't posted really, was pretty busy and a lot of stuff happening over and around Christmas, but that's no excuse I know!
Christmas was pretty much normal though, was fun on Christmas day, seemed to play on my XBox most of it with Jamie, Andy and Sean! Got various bits and bobs for Christmas, although I was pleased with the series 1-3 of 24, which will definitely keep me from being bored for a while! Also got a chocolate fountain which was quite random, but good to have a go with on new years eve... more to follow...
As I probably mentioned previously we planned a party for new year (basically because we couldn't think of anything else to do... again) but it actually happened and there was a decent amount of us for once! Seven people - Mike, Claire, Surovy, Krish, Alex, James and Me! To be fair you'd struggle to fit any more in here, especially when it comes to floor space for sleeping!
Was a very good night though, so good it was in danger of not actually ending! There was excessive amounts of alcohol involved of course... i won't even mention James and the rum... we even managed to make Jenga into a drinking game, which Surovy was very good at (if you enjoy drinking that is!) - she managed to drink about half the bottle of Apple Sourz we had allocated for people who knocked over the tower.... even though she liked to keep reminding us with her new catchphrase that "I'm not allowed!" ;-)
It was also a very good job no neighbours were in - well im assuming they weren't, either that or they had all passed out! Because the music and general volume level started to go up from about 3:30 onwards til about 5:30 (yes, 5:30) when i think we would probably have all lost our voices from singing (shouting?) so loudly, so it finally ended!

That's how parties should be! Even the legendary party from the second year at uni (if i do say so myself... ) had ended before we even got properly started! Granted that was cos everyone was probably either unconscience or throwing up somewhere!
Oh yeah, back to James and the rum... sorry James ;-) He apparently drank rather a lot and ended up with drinking half a bottle of dark rum - possibly more. The next day, well the same day should I say, but you know what I mean... he didn't move, at all. I mean literally. He had his piece of floor and never moved once all day, infact he didn't move til the next morning! He was meant to get a train back with Alex New Year's day evening, but physically couldn't get up lol.
At least it wasn't a birthday, so he can't blame (and take revenge on) anyone other than himself this time! :)
So yeah, that was new year! Been back at work three days now and can't be arsed already, oh well only 361 days left til next new year!
I will attempt to follow with some photo's too... yes mike had his camera out and of course Alex had a fair few classics in there as always, so keep an eye out on gallery soon...
