Bank holidays, don't you just love them?

Sadly, most of those usually available for drinking have buggered off to some restaurant in the south of France for the weeken leaving me somewhat aimless.

So I'm wandering round museums and galleries, and lying in parks, thinking about anything but the law and quite resolutely refraining from any work whatsoever. Hurrah. Isn't life grand?

No, I really don't like bank holidays. On account of working at a boarding school, I shall be struggling with database migrations tomorrow, alas.

Join a union!

Hang on. Have they all gone to Macon to the best restaurant in the world (TM) ? Gggggggggggrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. I'm sad, especially as Adele is R+S's new Halina. Grr.

[liadnan]

Yes indeed they did (with David). Moreover, they drove there in Adele's swanky convertible.

Though I wouldn't be surprised to find David did most of the driving.

But I wouldn't worry, there can only be One Halina.

Thank you. I am jealous. That restaurant is so nice. I think Adele probly did some driving too its just that she drives so fast that it only takes a short time. Did they go in the cartunnel ?

You should come up to Oxford and go punting. Give me an excuse. I seem to have paid £10 to the college, in advance, for the ability to go punting all term.

[liadnan]

Actually, I had thought about it, and thought again after I saw your comment, but the weather was so rubbish when I woke up I decided against.

JCRs always do that about the punts. In the long run it's probably worth it though.

Yes, I am getting annoyed at the weather forecasting habit in this country where every time they say it will be sunny, they're wrong, but every time they say it will rain, they're right.

So I just did work, and went to master's collections, instead. Maybe another day though.

I'm always available for drinking. Actually I've been boozing most of the evening with ninebelow and trying unsuccessfully to argue Brendan into a corner.

[liadnan]

Has anyone ever argued brendan into a corner?

damnit, you are not allowed to use phrases like "buggered off to some restaurent in the s. of france for the weekend when it takes ridiculous quantities of hours and thousands of dollars to do that on this side of the pond. Bah humbug!

[liadnan]

Well, if it's any consolation, I didn't go because I couldn't afford it even from here.

Siiiiiiiiigh.

Happy May.

[liadnan]

Well, its drizzling down miserably, nevertheless, fingers are crossed.

Yeah, I had my blissful 'oh, everything feels all lovely' moment and that's gone now too ... but one never knows. Perhaps life will feel alright after a bit. Certainly application of sun on one's face does the trick.

Hey. Send me another one of those painful pictures. I wanna remember that there is more than this ...

If I remember rightly.

gosh. I hadn't seen that before. That brought back lots of lovely memories. Hope this year is just as fun!
You said silly things about my hair. but yes, it did look like I'd set the place on fire.

[fairymelusine.livejournal.com]

With text, even!

Lordy. That looks to be simply HOURS worth of work I can ignore, as well as having the added benefit of making me appear somewhat like a stalker if I finish the whole thing.

Doubly excellent.

[liadnan]

Well, I've just been browsing it and keep getting a 404 on the pictures. No idea what that's all about.

[fairymelusine.livejournal.com]

Don't play with me, sir.

Either give me beautiful things that make my heart break or not ...

[fi.livejournal.com]

Sounds like a perfectly acceptable way to pass the time to me!

[liadnan]

.. except then it started raining. Ho hum.
