I suppose I should tell you all about my exciting time away, and boy and gosh it was exciting.
I went off on Monday, with my bag on back and a song in my heart (Which was feeling a bit odd with a kind of crampyness over it, but more of that later) and arrived at sheffield station to meet up with someone I have never met before, a dude named Ken. I found him, and then we boarded a train too... STOCKPORT. Then we changed there to go to Shrewsbury. It was all very exciting, but not as exciting as the big mansion we arrived at. It's like the fame academy one, but it's falling apart more, and nearer Wales (1 mile away!).
Once there I met some people, found my room (shared with a guy who snored soooo much, again more later though) and found that the downstairs lounge has a really really "far superior to school" foozball table (I still suck at one on one but can still get OT on them when playing 2 on 2 in defence). Right so that out of the way I ate food, met lots of people, met one of Helen's (stetler girl) friends, which was odd as I texted helen about it whilst helen was e-mailing her. Met some more people and went to lots of talkshops. I then bought a cool careforce hoody, so now I have a overtly christian item of clothing, something I've always felt I was missing...
The rest of the week went pretty fast, meeting lots of people all of whom are very friendly as they are all very much like you. Which is great, and I found out how to cure the crampyness over my heart (which I have been getting lately) it's simply to drink lots of coffee, because someone called Katy persuaded me to drink 4 cups of coffee within the space of 30 minutes and I haven't felt better in ages.
So to sum up..

We'd kick your ass. Because we used to play it lose 9 nil and drop your pants in front of the entire 6 form block.
And I actually am down in London for the Kinesis gig then.
wooo! Stockport... what a horrible little place... :S
Disaster - can't get to that gig either! :( I'm already going to the gig at the Roadhouse though. We play it lose 10-0 and you drop your pants and run around 2nd quad twice. Great fun!
Before you do play me, if such a thing ever happens, I play so much that I actually know what all the shots are called - pull-kick, pull, wrench, snake, back pin, front pin, etc. etc. Just a warning!
If I can get out of my engagements on Friday 18th though I might well see you down in London!
see we have names as well but we have other names. And we yell out random words as well while perfoming them. And our names sound cooler. And we have extremely pointless but very cool moves. Like those fatalities in mortal kombat that are nigh on impossible to pull off and only can be done once you've pummeled them into oblivion but whence done cause rounds of applauses and bows

So Sparticus is a bit of a table footballer he reckons? I'm the captain of our college table football first team. In Oxford we all seem to take it quite seriously! Probably the worst "oneupmanship" place in the country :S. Still, if you ever fancy a weekend down in Oxford, you're definitely welcome - *particularly* if you make it coincide with a Kinesis gig in either Oxford or London apart from the one on the 12th - and we'll kick ass and win a few pints :D
