This is Friday afternoon and I am about to leave for home. The week has
been long and tiring but I played badminton with my school friend Rob! Last
weekend I went to London with Marion.
To a music festival with my brother and his friends Summer Sundae in
Clapham Common with bands I am Kloot, King Creosote and some others… the
festival was sponsored by the ice-cream manufacturer Ben & Jerrys and all
around the festival site there were tents dishing out the many B&J
ice-cream flavours! The sun was out and we chilled, had ice-cream, and
listened to the music. It was great!
Fun follows fun and on Sunday Marion and I went to the Saatchi Gallery
(recommended to me by someone I met at a party – very colourful!) and then
to Brick Lane. I love music and one of my favorite shops is Rough Trade off
Brick Lane. After having some delicious food from a market we went to RT
and M bought me the latest White Jeans [is that what they're called?] album
and had a good look around.
Another passion of mine is Graffiti and we found a road called Bacon Street
where all the walls are fantastically painted (graffiti’d). Many cool and
different paints there! I have put the photos we took on my flickr page
(http://www.flickr.com/photos/andysan) if you want to check it out.
This week has been a matter of survival. It’s been tough at work and after
work I’ve been studying or reading a lot. So it was great last night to
play Rob at badminton and throw away some of the stress. Today I am aching
all over but it was great fun! Thanks Rob for chasing me so we could
organise this game!
This weekend we’re going to Winchester and then on Sunday to my parents (to
see a whole flock of relatives). Tonight we’re going to the cinema.
