Hectic

I've been a bit busy over the past couple of weeks so I haven't really updated this page much. Last week I had a friend up visiting from Essex. He had never really been to Glasgow before so I was doing the whole tour guide bit. The weather was OK on Saturday and a bit grey on sunday. It had been much better earlier in the week.

I showed him round the university and the Hunterian museum (which has a new medicine in Glasgow display) before walking from Byres Road, down Great Western Road and through Woodlands to the city centre in an attempt to see some of the architecture. Visited a couple of my childhood pubs before sitting in the sun outside Mono on King Street for a while. Then returned to the west end for dinner before meeting people I work with in Vodkawodka (which was loud and expensive) and going on to Bamboo (which is a sht night club). Tried to get into a casino on the way home but luckily failed to get in.

The next day was clouded with hangover. Went to Cafe Andaluz (a tapas restaurant) and ate till we felt like bursting. Went into town and strolled around for a bit. Played pool in a dodgy snooker club. Went to the Stand comedy club and watched some comedians. At the Stand I met a girl who was in the year below me at uni.

A busy weekend. I was knackered after it.

I fell asleep at around 9:30 on monday evening. I was working late on wednesday and I went out again on thursday night. I went to the entertainment complex at braehead for a girls birthday. I had never been there before but it seems pretty cool. Played a couple of games of bowls. They have indoor skiing there which cannot be good for the environment.

that's it for now. enough mundane stuff

funky
