ahhh, the end of a three day weekend.

friday night was blah. jonno had a work gig, and everyone else was gone for the weekend, so i went to the gym, then vegged at home and just lay like broccoli.

saturday was chilled – breakfast in bed, did a few errands (took the ring in to be re-sized) wandered around the south bank, walked across to embankment, bought some saffa goodies and a wallet for j, headed up to covent garden and had a few beers, bought donnie darko dvd, and came home and watched movies.

sunday was a gloriously sunny day, so kerryn came over and cooked breakfast (two days in a row i had men making me breakfast! a girl could get used to that!) and then we picked up tonya and chris and headed to kent for some outdoor rock climbing. took ages to find the place (we took a brief detour through the local production of robin hood!), but we finally stumbled into it, had a picnic lunch and after much dithering about, and setting up, re-setting up…we finally climbed some frikken rocks! amazing rush, particularly outdoors, where if you fall or slamm into the wall, the stakes are just a teensy bit higher. i left some skin on the rocks, and the rocks left some imprints on my skin. after a nice long day in the sun, we headed home, and watched another dvd.

monday was pissing rain. went to the gym, went to my old flat and cleared out some more stuff. went shopping and bought some cake ingredients, came home and baked a big ole chocolate cake. mmmm.
