Missed by a Long Shot

"...screw it, I'm not going to make it in time for kickboxing." I shrugged to myself as I walked back to my flat from the middle of town with Dave, David and Dan (I appreciate being called Ross I sort of ruin that trend of Ds). It was another unnaturally sunny and warm day considering today was the the 1st of October; and usually by now most of England is 3ft under rain water.

It's odd how many more friends I've made lately, which is never a bad thing. I have yet to get to know them all that well, but I'm being more social and it seems to be paying off. When I brought up the subject of the weather (actually I don't think I did personally, but it was the subject at the time. We wouldn't be proper Englishmen if we didn't talk about the weather) I mentioned that Saturday's supposed to be back to the norm of heavy rain and that I might spend the day in the pub across the road; to which David said that if I did I should give him a call since he'd come join me in that case. Which was a lot better than I expected.

I'm also determined to do more than 3 paragraphs in a blog post, and I realise lately I've been neglecting my blogging responsibilities but I'm still trying to get used to "early" starts and the tiredness was catching up to me, and still is. Luckily though tomorrow I don't have classes 'til 11am, and finish at 1pm. So an incredibly easy day overall.

Nothing spectacular has happened as of late, though today I missed my kickboxing lesson, as my seminar beforehand ends 5 minutes after I need to arrive at the Sports Hall...10 minutes across town. So unless I had the assistance of a Time Machine, I would be unable to make the Thursday session of Kickboxing.

However, my teacher wants the seminar pushed back an hour, so that he can go home an hour earlier and we can finish classes an hour earlier. This would enable me to make my kickboxing lesson on Thursday. However only time will tell if this comes true.

Having written more than 3 paragraphs now, and still being quite exhausted from my week of classes I feel I shall bring this post to an end. Looking forward to going shooting with my Uncle tomorrow though, and also looking forward to my possible lie-in in the morning.

  1. You should call yourself Daryll just to fufill the Gang of D's requirements.
    And I'm glad you've got some peeps to hang out with and who'll take embarrassing videos of you trying to do karaoke in a pub.
