The First Big Weekend - Arab Strap
So that was the first big
weekend of the summer...
Starts Thursday as usual
with the canteen quiz and again
no-one wins the big cash prize.
Later I do my sound Bloke routine
by approaching Gina's
new boyfriend to say
that he shouldn't feel that
there's any animosity between us
then I even go and make peace
with her Shouldn't have bothered.
Then on Friday night we
went through to the Arches...
There was only one car going
so some of us had to get the train.
We got through quite late.
Then we went to a pub to take the gear.
There was no problems getting in
we saw some others waiting down
the front of the queue so
we skipped in.
It was a good night - everyone
was nutted and I ended up
dancing with some blonde girl.
I thought she had been
quite pretty until last night when
Matthew informed me that she had,
in fact, been a pig.
When the club finished
we wandered the streets
for a while until we got to
this 24-hour cafe.
I didn't like the look of it
so we left and got a taxi
back to Morag's flat.
I couldn't sleep so
I sat about drinking someone else's
strawberry tonic wine and tried
to keep everyone else up.
Then at ten o'clock in the morning
we went downstairs to
buy some drink.
We had intended
to watch the football in the afternoon
but we'd passed out by then
and slept right through it,
awaking to find that England
had won two-nil.
Then we went to get the train
home and had a few in the
Station bar.
We had some stuff left from
the previous night's supplies
so when we got home we decided
to go down to John's indie disco.
Same story as Friday
lots of hugging,
lots of dancing etc. etc.
I couldn't sleep again
so went to the park
to look at the toon,
taking a detour through
the playpark.
To get in we had to climb over
a ten foot steel fence, which resulted
in severe bruising of our hands,
legs and groins,
but we had a good laugh on the stuff,
especially the tube-slide,
which probably doubles up
as a urinal for drunk teens.
Then we walked through the woods
to have a look at the toon.
Big disappointment,
but the mist on the lake was cool.
Sunday afternoon we go up to
John's with a lot of beer in time to
watch the Simpsons - it was a
really good episode about love
always ending in tragedy except,
of course, for Marge and Homer.
It was quite moving at the end
and to tell you the truth my eyes
were a bit damp.
Then we watched these young girls
in swimsuits have a water
fight in the street.
We went up to the pub about ten.
It was busy for a Sunday night,
lots of people we know,
including my first ever girlfriend
who I still find very attractive,
quite frankly,
but I didn't really speak to her
She's probably still a bitch, anyway.
Her friend Gillian was there,
I had a chat with her,
she was still quite pleasant.
At the same time I watched Malcolm
make some terrible attempt to try
and chat up a girl we know called Jo.
He made some remark about her
skirt that was barely there the
previous night or something.
I couldn't sleep again that night,
thanks to some seriously disturbing
nightmares... Matthew says
I should cut down on the cheese.
Went out for the weekend,
it lasted for ever, high with
our friends it's officially summer.

I got some sleep eventually
on Monday afternoon.
It was a beautiful day,
and later that evening Malcolm
introduced me to the
power of Merrydown - £1.79 a litre,
8.2% - mmmm.....
Judith and Laura came round later
and we sat in my back garden and drank.
Then Matthew came round
and we went up the town.
It's officially summer.
