I AM ALIVE!!!!
The job abroad got cancelled last minute.
She didn't come to the hotel, but the next morning I woke up to a big dent in the off-side front wing of the beemer. I'm convinced that this is a coincidence though.
So I drove down to some place on the beach in kent at the weekend for the Electric Gardens festival. I didnt really want to go home after all the build up of going away so it seemed like a good choice (read hiding) - was an excellent place to unwind and luckilly I had most of my camping gear in the car (I almost live out that damn thing). Picked up a girl I went to uni with on the way, took lots of pictures, drank lots of beer/pimms (beer ran out), listened to some good music (OxEagleLionMan/the rakes/Noisettes/the young knives/happy mondays/Jack Pinblablabla to name but a few).
All in all was wicked - reminded me of how awesome it is to be a single socialite hippy, and the girl I went with was exceptionally foxy - has her own money, likes the music I like - also happens to be a photographer for FHM
Got back this morning about 4AM, got up late and cleaned the car - and thats about it ("worked" from home today).
So I think I manged about 36 hours of being single, this one seems pretty sound though
(I went out with her for about 6 months when she was in her first year of uni about 18 months ago - so not a ridiculess age gap either.
Life is good once more.
(Got home to find my Vinyl and my cameras + my Xbox360 which I'd forgotton about!)
Life is great with photos and a Vinyl accompanyment.
Cheers
