Various uni prospectus from Derby Uni.. contains Stoke-on-trent lolly!
Its my second day in Derby and I have to say that things have been rather random. Yesterday I travelled up in the afternoon in my sister car and she packed her car full with different items for the house that she moving into with her partner. I was crammed in myself but the journey wasn’t that bad even though I had a hamster in a cadge on my lappy.
I went to sleep on this camp bed that already has some lovely holes in it. I woke up at 4am because my weight has just tore the whole thing apart. I was so glad they were planning to get rid of it anyway because I have had rendered it useless now. It’s a shame cause it was better than directly sleeping on the floor.
Anyway, moving on to today. I’d got up at 8am to have a refreshing shower and cornflakes whilst seeing disasters that the emergency services have to deal with on telly. Not exactly something I wanted to watch really but the cable video-on-demand didn’t work at the time.
At lunchtime, I decided to help out by mowing the lawn. I stupidly thought that such a task would be simple to archive and that I would be munching on another snack within moments. I was so wrong by thinking this. I had to put this pesky mower together and then I found that every five seconds I had to clear the base of it or it wouldn’t function. Ah well.. least it did the job.
Much later on in the afternoon at around 3pm, I arrived in Stoke where I unplanned went out with some people I knew from the place to the park as they were looking after the neighbour kids for some reason. I discovered that I would fail so badly if I ever wanted children.
I went to the house earlier than the people at the park and went out with my sister in the car. When we returned, we discovered the locked them out. During the time they were waiting, they deweeded the front garden which I was amazed by as the two years I visited the place, not once they took much care for it.
So we went out to the garden centre, for them to spend around fifty quid on plants. Not like you can get much for that price these days.
So that was my rather random day. Sorry if I rambled too much. :/
Yesterday I had a fantastic and gob smacking awesome time with my media group in London. It took along time to get to South Bank, London from Oxford though. On the coach journey in the way in, James pissed off a white van man by taking a photo of him without turning the flash off, but as the traffic hardly moves fast in London.. He got out and started banging the coach window. It felt like something out of The Inbetweeners. I found it funny for some reason.
Behind the Loose Women set had loads of duck tape to repair it as got wore out after the much usage it gets. I didn’t know how much lights that are involved for shows. It makes the set looks really different without the lights on. It was really good show and I really enjoyed doing the clapping etc. During one of the breaks when they do Q&As, somebody wanted to steal a mug. So when the show finished, a runner quickly carried the mugs away in a basket. BTW, they don’t drink tea or coffee, they drink bottle water.
