5:45am - Wake up desperate for a wee, wondering where the hell I am. Realise I am with Nick in a double bed at our friend's Sue & Lauries house, after a rather late night out at the newly refurbished Rockmount pub. Wake Nick up as I can't find the light switch, it is pitch black and I am thinking I might wet myself. He points me in the right direction.
5:50 - I go for a wee.
9:30 - Surface groggily, wondering again where the hell I am. It is sunny! I am at Susan & Laurie's house! I down a cup of tea and a glass of water which seems to fend off the morning hangover. Laurie gives us a lift to our car, which we left in the pub carpark. The seat is really far forward because Sarah moved it for us last night, she was the only sober person and is quite short. We go home.
10:00 until 1:30pm - We potter around the house, doing some tidying up. I wash my hair. I also eat a bowl of Wheetos. Yum.
1:30 - We go in Nick's car to his work, the traffic is really bad because there has been a crash along the sea front. Nick's cameraman is there already and has filmed it.
1:50 - We hop into Nick's work van with the cameraman, which is very much like the van from the A Team, only white.
2:00 - We go to Footes Lane, where Nick is filming this years 'Mud Run', a very messy 4 mile run for charity through muddy bogs, douits and silly obstacles. Some our our friends are taking part - Sue, Laurie, Tinny, Kristen and Matt. Sue is suffering greatly from the night before and looks extremely pale. They set off. We cheer and laugh at their stupidity.
2:15 - 3:00 - We follow the runners around the course, turning up in various locations to get some good shots for the telly. We get threatened with mud, and laugh some more at our very dirty, soggy friends as they struggle through streams.
3:00 - The mud run ends. We get a lift back to our car which is at Nick's work and go home.
3:15 - We stop off on the way home and buy a roll, drink and cake each, we sit in our car looking out to sea like a couple of old grannies and eat. It is very cold, but we are nice and warm.
3:30 - 7:30 - We potter around at home some more, general chores, housework and sorting stuff out for our house sale. Tinny phones, inviting us around for Chinese.
7:45 - Arrive at Tinny & Sarahs. John, Kristen, Laurie & Toki are already there. We order Chinese food. I eat far too much. Fran's boyfriend James arrives, without Fran. She is working.
8:30 - We all sit down and watch the Goonies. Amazingly, three people have NEVER seen it. How is this possible!??
10:30 - Nick has fallen asleep on the sofa. I wake him up and we go home. I accidentely set off the car alarm and wake up our neighbours while I am parking. I want to read my book so sleep in the spare room and Nick have ours. I read until about 1:00 am, it is a really good book. I finally go to sleep with Molly lying on my stomach.
