Shopping and other fun!

HAD ANOTHER GOOD evening last night, went to see the Circus of Horrors at the Victoria Hall, was good show! My flat mate Ben flooded the kitchen too, he defrosted the freezer by switching it off and putting boiling pans of water in it. Consequently the kitchen became a “wellie only zone”.

Not the only thing Ben did today, he also managed to just shove his beef joint in the fridge to defrost without putting it in a bowl. Consequently we had a nice dribble of blood all inside the fridge with a nice pond at the bottom. He vaguely wiped it up however the bottom of the fridge is really in need of a good clean now! .... When we asked Ben to clean it up properly and said it was disgusting he said “It’s only blood and what should I know about food hygiene, I work at Mc. Donolds!

Today we also set about re-filling the freezer with another mammoth Tesco’s trip! As often happens we brought too much so the discussion turned to who should make the long walk home. After a bit of bustling however we managed to jam my little car full of the four of us and all our shopping!

One of my other flat mates, Simon, also made a nice Banana cake today. It wasn’t a shock as Simon is very clearly the “cook” in the flat! We had a problem though as with a badly equipped student kitchen we did not have a cake tin to cook it in! Well this left us to have to use one of the cheap pans the University gave us, which the handle had now broken off of as our cake tin. Needless to say it was very interesting getting it out of the pan!

Dinner!

WELL TONIGHT'S DINNER, contrasted nicely between the four of us who live in the flat. I decided in my wisdom I would make a nice fish pie for everyone. Naturally two of my flatmates, Simon and Ben were keen to accept this offer, the idea of not needing to cook but still getting a nice meal would please any of us. My third flat mate, Nathan was not in at the time but anyway it is not like him to eat much that doesn’t come out of a tin or with lots of plastic packaging!





Anyway I eagerly started cooking my fish pie, reasonably successfully until I got distracted by Facebook! On returning to the kitchen I had manage to over boil fishy milk across the hobs, which had burnt on so consequently rather smelt! Apart from that slight hitch however the fish pie turned out to go pretty well and I was feeling pretty pleased as I loaded my creation into the oven.





At that time Nathan returned and after asking what was in the oven I told him. Naturally I had made too much so kindly offered him some “proper food” and to have some of my fish pie. He swiftly rejected preferring his delightful feast he had brought with him.
The four of us sat down to eat, three of us with a nice fish pie and Nathan with a polystyrene box filled with fat filled chips and greasy donner meat! Also his £3 odd for his delightful meal was almost as much as the fish pie cost for all of us! And I had some left over for lunch the following day!

Last Night Joys

ME AND SIMON went and saw Tim Vine’s tour last night he was very good. The place was completely sold out and the crowd really seemed to enjoy the show! I did think I might get bored, with lots of one line jokes but I didn’t and really enjoyed the whole show.

Tim is a friend of mine from when I did Panto so after the show we went for a few drinks with him and his gang which was a good laugh. Spent most of the night playing silly games to decide who should get the 6 cream eggs. Great laughs and a really enjoyed the night!

However after the excitement when we decided to leave in the early hours of the morning the journey home was rather interesting. First we simply followed the SatNav as you do, to the M6 taking no notice that there was rather a lot of lorries and cars on the A road for this time in the morning. Well it suddenly made sense when we attempted to join the M6, the geniuses that are the highway agency decided to close it for roadwork’s! Ok this was probably planned a fair way in advance, but on a busy Friday night closing one of the busiest motorways in Britain. Anyway we reluctantly started following the diversions with the SatNav constantly yelling at us to turn around! We joined the queue of lorries and other cars slowly winding out way back into Wolverhampton City Centre. More annoying was that we were travelling back exactly the same way we had come and to really rub salt into out wounds we went right back past where we had been only 30mins earlier.

Naturally it was late and the diversion signs were not that great so we simply followed the train of lorries. That was ok until we realised we were going into a 20mph zone in the very middle of the city centre. We went past Varsity, Walkabout and Oceana all busy on Friday night with drunks falling out onto the road. This seemed crazy that the diversion took us on this route on a busy night, were they after running over as many drunk people as possible?!

We had at this point turned the SatNav off, bored with its commands to “turn around when possible”. Well after a while of moaning about how stupid this was and continuing to follow the flow of traffic, we realised we had just done a big loop! It wasn’t just us though everyone had been doing the same thing, just following everyone else! Well after that we continued to this time successfully follow the long diversion and eventually joined the M6. Most of it back home was down to one lane, even though this was annoying I must admit I have never seen so many workmen actually doing some work, ever!!

Welcome!
