Messing about in boats

I was invited to go on a kayaking trip today. Something outdoors and fun, I thought. Makes a change from Bloodbowl , so I went.

First canoe wasn't too successful. I capsized twice. It was so small and nimble that I had trouble controlling it. The least stroke sent it careening over the lake surface. The instructors then took pity on me an offered me a substantially larger canoe, the Star Destroyer of canoes. Much more to my taste. It took an effort to change its direction and was considerably more stable. In this I was able to power back and forth across the lake at a fair rate of knots. Groovy. It was a shame when the hour was up. I hope to go back again soon.

Oh, God...my head is completely...

...fine! How about that? I know it doesn't dserve to be, the sheer amount of booze I put away last night but there you go. Onward to a fine day of bloodbowling and faff then.

4:50 am and I'm totally smashed

Dirty Fairy and Cool Car Guy decided to throw a bar-b-q. Fair enough. Myself, Beren and Luthien and Bubble and Ooze were also in attendance. (Note: one unmarried guy among the couples.) Many meat feasts later and we retired to the living room to consume more alcohol after Beren and Luthien left.

Much talk into the wee small hours ensued after a relocation to Bubble and Ooze's place after we had finished all the booze in the other flat.

This included the very bad idea of internet purity tests, which I lost. (92% on the hundred pointer and 95% on the 1500 pointer.)

I left at 4:10am and ran into BTBubble on the way down the road. Strange coincidence as I had previously met her on the way to work at 11:30am on Saturday. Short discussion ensued as we had previously worked together at Purgatory Ltd. Weird.

I've now got back home and found Double Barrel sleeping on my couch. I wonder what the Ubergeek has got up to in my absence...

Good Luck!

I'd like to take this opportunity to wish my good friend ChocolateMuffin all the best as she's going into hospital for an operation tomorrow. It isn't anything serious and she should be out within 24hrs but it's traditional to wish people good luck on such occasions, so...
