Thursday night the count down was on. Charlie, Michelle & I were sitting in the Cricketeers having a drink listening to jazz waiting on the call from the Dane to say she had arrived. Midnight and the call came in, we sprinted down to the bus and there was INGER!!!! Whoo hooo. A quick catch up and we were straight into Greys Anatomy series 3. We restricted ourselves to 3 episodes and set the alarm for 10am the next morning.
Friday, a day spent in front of the telly watching 6 episodes of Greys 3 before we had to get ready for our night out. It rained during the day so it's not like we wasted our time. A very emotional ride with Greys.
Friday night we had a work event at Newmarket Racecourse. As usual heaps of people dropped out so I was able to bring all my mates! So me, Inger, Charlie, Adam, Laura, Becky & Caroline and my work mates headed off to the races. The sun broke through once we arrived and it was a clear night for racing. 5 races = 5 winners!!!! I came out trumps, £125 ahead. We celebrated with a few drinks then the band, The Sugababes, had a mini concert so that made the night even better.
Saturday, after receiving a tip from Chris Howcroft (Regional Director) Becky, Inger & I headed to the bookies in the morning, before 10.30am to ensure we got good odds, to lay our bets. We were pretty excited and feeling pretty confidant from our wins. Unfortunately the horse placed about 15th!! No more gambling for awhile. The rest of Saturday was spent watching Greys 3 with us finishing the 25th episode at 12.15am. A fantastic series and well worth the effort.
Sunday saw us heading down to Church in London. A day spent drinking & dancing and even getting into bed early about 9.30pm.
Monday we lounged around, went for a walk round town, basically chilled out. Then Monday night had another work do. We have handed over 2/3rd's of the job so we had a topping out party at the Granta in Cambridge. It rained all day and as we were having a BBQ I was worried abit, but the sun came out at 6.30pm in time for the BBQ at 7pm. A great night but feeling a bit sick this morning!
Only 4 hours to go till Inger leaves back to Daneland.
A lovely barbeque Friday night followed by a sleep in till 2ish on Saturday. But then it was up and off to the gym with Mila. I was given a lovely bottle of tonic wine, Buckfast, which is considered a delicacy in Scotland and decided to try it out before we went out. It does state on the bottle that it shouldn't be used for medicinal purposes, I think that should have been a clue! Gross!! Tasted kinda like wine & coca cola mixed in together. So after tipping it down the sink it was out to B Bar to meet up with Charlie, Adam,
Joe & Mercedes for a few drinks then on to Soul Tree for a bit of dancing. We had the whole dance floor to ourselves which was a bit weird but after awhile more people joined in. Felt a bit tired so Mila & I headed off about 12.30 and got to stand in a massive taxi line for 15 mins in the rain!! And the fact that we didn't have umbrella's was even better. Finally home for a cuppa tea & piece of toast. Sleep in on Sunday then a walk around the shops followed by sitting in front of the telly for the arvo.
