Sunny times ahead
I have returned back into Oxfordshire on Saturday after a laid back week in [tag]Stoke on Trent[/tag]. Overall, I went to the pubs, seen The Simpson’s movie, and went shopping loads of times. I had a good time there but I prefer being around here.
The only main highlight of yesterday is that I did a few laps at the Swimming Pool nearby. I’m trying to get my body fit by changing my crappy diet and doing some sport everyday.
I will need to shave soon. My first ever shaving session, how fun.. It will probably end up cutting myself badly, and having a everlasting scar.
I’m at Stoke now..
I managed to get to Stoke-on-trent but it doesn’t stop my worrying about my parents, and the house. I will have to find out in the morning if the flood had done anything to the house and if they can go anywhere in the car..
They got a Wii over here that I love playing with.. My hand hurts though as I stood to near to the door! I am getting good at the tennis and the ten-pin bowling though.
The photos I decided to take are getting viewed alot, I wonder if they will be nicked by some sort of newspaper? Along they pay me.. or the charity fund to help the victims out!
I’m so gonna find some manga at the Hanley comic shop that I love going into, they normally sell them cheaply.
This year Spain’s getting our summer and we’re getting Norway’s rain. :(
Updated: Merged two posts together and hided the flood photos.
Isn’t this weather really depressing and well.. shite? I hope the Abingdon roads don’t get flooded like last year, as I’m at Harwell at the moment. Good luck to every one in the flood watch area that is near the Ock or the Thames, luckly I’m not IN the area but IN the middle of them both.. So basicly my house won’t get flooded but the roads around it could.

I’ve got Debbie a lovely thank you gift to say goodbye with. I left it in my Dads car though so I have to wait until lunchtime till I can hand it over. My two weeks has been alright though it wasn’t that exciting, as for example I had to go around the workplace that the network isn’t working. I think they can work that out for themselfs!
Anyway I hope every reader has a lovely soaking good holiday. Some of you luckly gits are going on holiday that isn’t in England.
Merging from: Nightmares hits Oxfordshire with heavy rain causing flooding!
Whilst checking the emails when I was at my last day at Harwell, I seen a message saying that there is really bad flooding nearby and that everyone should go asap. Flooding was a understatement, as the roads looks like rivers at some places on the way back.
Car recovery trucks was seen going down the road we planned to go down so we had to plan another route, as we are locals, we know that road floods easily and that it will be more terrible than going ahead.
I was begainning to be really scared and trapped. I felt like I wasn’t going to be able to get home and that the water was studdenly rise quickly. Neither of that happened thankfully. The rest of the route was nearly always in 2ichs of water and I still don’t know how the car didn’t brakedown.
I’m still feeling shaken from it all. There is people that is a worse place than I was, like having their house soaked or having their car broken nowhere near to their homes.
I haven’t been on here for awhile.. [updated]
I had a well needed hair cut yesterday in the afternoon and its all spikey again, as it is short enough to gel. I haven’t done anything exciting to talk about so I have shut up abit. I’m not going to start posting rubbish just for the shake of it as I gonna start losing vistors that way.
I am excitied today, my sister coming back for acouple of days. I really value how good she been we me acting stuipd sometimes, and she is more as a buddy than a sister. So sometime in the evening I will be in Oxford waiting for her train.
I had a great talk with IT group leader, senior website designer, and manager of Momenta (the manager is called Debbie, and is my dads boss) about their IT and stuff about how good AEA. At the end of it I felt that working at AEA is a possible idea for a job. It was really nice of Debbie to give me Good Luck card.
I’m loving social networking at the moment as its so great talking to people like old friends that have left school. There has a been a boost on people taking my quizes this week due to everyone being bored at work ex.

I enjoyed watching Harry Potter yesterday and I noticed Antony G and Ross from school. The film was alright though I thought the ending sucked abit and it felt like a standalone film.
Only one week until the summer holidays are here. I’m not doing much in them but it much more better than work experience!
