Well – the party. What can I say? It was fantastic! Everyone had made such an effort with their Las Vegas costumes and outfits – it really was excellent, and Bren had a fantastic time. I even managed to convince a couple of people that I looked like Roy Orbison (although they had to use a lot of imagination!).
Present were: Bren (in a stunning showgirl outfit she made herself), Greg, Paul F (both in amazing Elvis outfits, also made by Bren) and the band (all dressed up too), DA, DAGS (only two weeks to go!), Ian (another Elvis!), Sacha, Tanya, Tam (dark hair really suits you!), Arron (cool white tux), Kearn (where did you get that jacket?!), Kev (Don Corleone), Andrea, Donna, Matt (dodgy cop), Heidi (how little were you wearing??!), Julie, Caroline (loved up) and Amanda (amazing entrance).
Top marks to Bren for organising it so brilliantly – the venue was perfect and the spread was just right (and desperately needed by Kearn and I, as we’d both been working all day and hadn’t had time to eat anything to soak up the booze!). And Paul successfully mumbled his way through the Elvis numbers too in a most convincing fashion!

Tonight: Bren’s birthday extravaganza. I’ve
Tonight: Bren’s birthday extravaganza. I’ve got my fancy dress sorted (Roy Orbison – no, there won’t be any pictures). A small pressie and card are prepared. Need to book the taxi. There’ll be just one thing missing though – Marianne can’t make it, which is a great shame.
Still, I’m looking forward to it – should be the social event of the year. -
My exam results are due
My exam results are due today. I waited for the postman for ages this morning, but he still had not arrived by the time I left for work (had to come in today as it is the first day of the new season at the nursery). So I’ll have that joy waiting for me when I get home. Predicited grades: C and D.

Battle against the European Central
Battle against the European Central Bank in Virtual Gotcha! 2…
a spectacular, interactive 3D-computergame. The setting is today: the time of the introduction of the Euro. A group of disillusioned old-age-pensioners are preparing a full-blown battle against the European Central Bank. Their ultimate goal, besides the annihilation of the Euro, is to end the never-ending Europeanization which totally undermines their good old values. -
Beer or sleep? Beer or
Beer or sleep? Beer or sleep? Beer or sleep? hmm. I wonder, will anyone complain if I go to the pub and sleep on the bar?
