18th March 2001

This last week seems not to have really existed for me at all.  It seems like absolutely no time has passed for me between being at Colchester last weekend and being there this weekend.  A number of things did happen this past week.  I went to Birmingham on Monday.  Somehow this made the rest of the week seem shorter anyway, and I went and got horribly drunk on Wednesday at Robs birthday and recovered in time to play badminton (reasonably well in fact) on Thursday.  But the whole week just seemed to disappear as the two Colchester weekends merged into one.

This weekend was as fantastic as normal when I'm in Colchester.  It was my idea to go back to Colchester this weekend.  This was mainly inspired by learning that this weekend past contained St Patrick's day.  There are normally freebies around St Patrick's day so I was keen to go back to the uni to find out.  That was what put the idea in my head.

The weekend was cool.  Went to the uni and went around town.  I won a flag in the raffle at the SU bar.  I know, what would I want with a flag?  It has given me faith in competitions again, which is a bad thing probably as I will start to expect to win things in the future.

Tony Chandler did nothing to help the surrealness of the weekend.  Friday night he was Tony, Saturday night he was Tony with bleached blonde hair.  He said he would do anything to get himself mentioned somewhere...

A few moans to finish off with.

1. User names & passwords & pin numbers.  i have so many of the stupid things I can't remember them all.  It's doing my head in.

2. Public transport in Colchester on a Sunday.  It's non-existent.

3. Dry cleaners.  Why can I not find a decent cleaners anywhere?  They all give me grief.  Sigh.
