Empathy from my side too. Being the spare wheel is not the best of experiences.

How very cute indeed. :D

I love randomly finding things I wrote/drew/made in my childhood. They remind me of much simpler days.

Oh, being a spare wheel in a group of four or five couples is a joyous experience, is it not?!

It must be great to have the lasting re-assurance that yes, you are a globtrotting individual and could actually survive outside of England’s nurturing womb.

Ah, if only I’d made a career choice that would actually benefit from that sort of travel.

I’d love to do a year abroad. As past panic-disorder sufferer I find the idea of living in a foreign country far less scary than trying to organise my day here in the UK. Wrong way around, eh? Oh well.

I’ve never been to Montreal but part of me wants to. If you get a chance to go to Calgary, Alberta or anywhere in BC, just do it. Mount Robson. Camping in a tent with nothing, no facilities, nada, at around 8000ft next to a glacier. That’s my idea of fun :D.

Some warnings though: places up there close in winter and 2) flies. Loads of them.

And the obligatory emo-lyrics:
“Tell all the English boys you meet
bout the American boy back in the states
The American boy you used to date
who would do anything you say”.
(Brand New – Jude Law And A Semester Abroad).

I like being competent and able to put up a tent and mallet things in the rain and work a stove in the dark. I love it. I also have a weakness for capable men. Although I also like trying to prove how capable I am to said capable men. I mainly just don’t want to be a spare wheel again, hence the real need for an obligingly sexy man.

Next year you should come to Towersey with us. And I will try to make it to Larmer Tree next year. Are you planning on going again? Xxx

Bellowhead!

When Marcus and I went to Larmer Tree, I put up the tent, and lent him my hoody. Hells yes I’m a Girl Guide, and he’s totally wet behind the ears for a camper. But I’ll have him anyway.

He did a Live at the Apollo about 5 years ago that I genuinely nearly wet myself over… “It’s a bit like gluing meat to your face”.
