we had a conversation the other day about the fran days so i came to read about the Barcelona incident. i didnt get that far but i got far enough to miss writing about the hillarious flatmate shinannigans (and not being able to spell at all!)

so anyway we live in gateshead now me, ol, rachel, andrew and jenna and life is pretty sweet. well apart from work which is the usual grind, more so because of xmas shoppers and their desire to eat a 3course meal at 10.30pm. really that cant be good for the digestive system.
but we all get on in the flat with only a few minor ructions. we had our first party on saturday too. my guests outnumbered the others' by 3 to1 yesssssssssssss but only cos i can claim the whole of chiquitos as my guests.

so update.... 
claude died. 
mimi smartypants was borned and lives with us and i just de-flead the house, 
im at art school specialising in photography(dont go to boots 4prints cos theyre insanely shite)(jessops with the totally hot guy all the way)
i keep kissing the chefs at work. well daniel only once but he always wants to come to the flat so i can fall asleep on him. and JP only 2ce but he cant speak english and is only a kid really. and daniel doesnt want e to like JP!!

anyways. Merry Christmas!!

well ive had some internet problems. but i have now conquered the stairs and am lugging the ole laptop straight into the mains.

it is cold up here tho

oh jesus god thank fuck for that!!

the last few days have been a frantic what we gonna do what we gonna do kinda time. u know when u have so much to think about n deicde over that u dont actually make decisions but just sit there thinking 'theres all this stuff i have to think about' and listing the things but not actually solving the problems. do i make sense???

well this has been my life. and then we got our act together, looked at some flats n finally we have been rewarded with what seems like a really great place.  its a 5bed maisonette. 2floors. big kitchen n living room, 2bathrooms, utility room n back yard. 3people living there already, me n ol make 5. and its cool with them and the landlord for claude 2stay too.

i am hopeful.

and its only 2streets from holly so yay.

moving on the 9th. hiring a van and my dad to drive n simon to help carry!!. hoping it'll just be 2trips with a van n dad wont be too stressed. but this is john we are talking about so theres bound to be some stress in there somewhere!!

now all we need to do is sort out the paperwork, move, sort out landlord here, cancel bills n tax, change address for everything thats delivered here. GAH!!!

happiness.
