The end of another great weekend!
Oct. 2nd, 2005 09:28 pmI went off Friday after work to visit ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
arakinuk for the weekend. calgor, vicky82tiger and silvante joined us shortly after I got there and we had a lovely pasta bake. Trying not to fall into the trap of writing in too much detail like I normally do, the next day, we went to Thorpe Park so I could use up my free ticket which I got from when I visited earlier in the year. In summary, we had a lot of fun on the many rides and I consumed too much sugar in the form of waffles, ice cream and Coke. Only downside was that the rain ruined our chances of having another go on the Nemesis Inferno as we had planned. We were going to have a go in the front row at a cost of waiting longer to get on. Arakin had never been on a real rollercoaster before and he overcame his fears and really enjoyed himself as he realised they aren't as scary as they look!
That evening,rapidofrog and bungle_bear came over to visit and in playing with Bungle on his PSP, I found the only downside to using a hacked firmware. You can't play over the wifi for UK games (or any games which need the 1.52 or higher firmware). Arakin's brother Andrew also came over to visit and we watched The Blue Man Group rock concert DVD at Calgor's suggestion. I really enjoyed the music the blue men produced with their innovative instruments. I was quite suprised I hadn't heard of them before as it's the sort of music I like (if a bit more rocky than my normal taste).
Sunday was a pretty lazy day consisting of us going to the Beefeater for grub (I ordered a chicken fajita salad which turned out to be nothing like I expected. Regardless, I was stuffed before being even half way through it, it was a massive portion tho). After the food, it was time to leave concluding a great weekend. Thanks to Arakin for being a great host and the others for being great company.
Oh, photos coming soon!
