It only took me two weeks (sort of) but I finally made it out in Lufbra. Both Thursday and Friday nights were really enjoyable, and a big release of pent up energy.

There have also been a number of other developments that have cheered me up a bit - firstly I now have a product for the RSA brief. About this time yesterday I was pretty stressed out, even considering changing my choice of design brief, but thankfully a chat with some other finalists and some sketching resolved the issues and I'm now happy that I think I've got a pretty killer product.

Secondly, last night on the way back from a very enjoyable FND, we found out that Towers fire alarm had gone off (3am - jackpot). We have a pretty good idea how it happened (it didn't come as a surprise) but we thought that we might as well make it a social call and headed into Victory Hall while they sorted it out. Devito and Swan proceeded to have a race in the hall, which didn't go down at all well with Besty who demanded an explanation. Thankfully I got away scott-free, partially because I didn't have anything to do with it, but since it wasn't me in the crap, I hung around for a bit longer to talk to one or two people I'd not seen in a while, and the other slunk off home.

Tonight is Louisa's birthday, which means house party. I'm not in the mood for big boozing particularly, but we'll go and make ourselves know anyway. Last night's ploughing through a crate and a bottle of vodka certainly made for a good evening and a hazy morning. Saying this, I have managed to make myself useful and do at least some cleaning, as The Palace is looking a little non-palatial at the moment.
