Brief entry. Am shattered. I had a good time at Martin’s wedding – haven’t seen him for over two years and he looks exactly the same. Don’t think that family ‘does’ aging. I drank Remy Martin, smoked a cuban cigar, … Continue reading
Andy, the only other English in the house, packed up his shit and left without warning the other day. Subsequently we’ve been looking for new housemates, putting up adverts and so on. It isn’t a good time of year to … Continue reading
The end of this week feels like the beginning of a new era. Don’t know why, because it isn’t. Today has been taxing beyond the call of duty. The storm blowing until the afternoon set the tone – I was … Continue reading
Somehow it is my last proper week of work before my Christmas break, on the surface a good thing but having so much to do in seven days isn’t too fantastic. My schedule looks like this; Sunday: Martin “Mad Mart”‘s … Continue reading

The weekend is almost over already and there hasn’t been a great deal of interest to report. We did have a party last night, I suppose. It was ok, though short because everyone decided to go out to some bar … Continue reading
My week is done, I am a free man for two days. Last night I went out to celebrate the weekend a little prematurely. Rich was DJing at Fitzherberts, as were a good few other people. I was introduced to … Continue reading
