Other happenings...

I'm going teetotal for a few months. I've been meaning to for a while anyway, as I periodically do so, and now seems a particularly good time.

Plus, I want there to be no change of anything I say or do over the next few months to be artificially altered in any way.

Glasgow and training (but not together)

So, had a great time in Glasgow- on the Friday met up with brindy once I got into Glasgow, and we headed back to his (and I met volantra), before heading back out. We went to some rock pub whose name I forget, whereupon I encountered sk8rgrrl, molkosmissus, minivempxxx (who has decided that I am now John, not Mike), and Susan (she of the anonymous commenting).

We later went to see Sepultura and In Flames, which was fun too.

On the Saturday, some wandering around town was done, before I split off to catch up with an old friend, Tamsyn, for a few hours. In the evening, we all went off to Bedlam (after I managed to suggest some Charlie's Angels posing from the ladies in our group). Bedlam was fun, met up with vodkafrenzy, pootled around, and then headed back home when everyone got bored.

Flew back on the Sunday, and, for the little in joke from the weekend...word to my gothic gangsta pirate homies....Yarr!




Anyway, the training so far is easy, as this week is the introductory course, and everyone already knows what they're doing. I also may end up with some free time in the evenings after all, during the revision periods before the exams and between the courses...

All in all, things going quite well so far.
