Old Boys Weekend

Yep, this weekend was Old Boys weekend and after drinking last night it's up at 07:30 to leave an hour late at 09:00. Viv drove to London, then I did the rest, getting to Dover about 15:00. We went to the 8 Bells to meet Dom and a few mates, then went to the Brit to see everyone else. Chris, Nick, Fulli, James, Olly and Gemma were all there, along with many other people I hadn't seen in quite a while. We got a lot of congratulations from people about our engagement. Eventually we left to go to Dom's room for a bit of smoke then we went back to our hotel to get changed. We then went to KFC for some food and then to the Brit again.

Although the Brit wasn't letting people in, so we met everyone in the Nelson round the corner. Sherwyn met us there as well. We then moved on to the 8 Bells again, eventually getting bored and heading back to the Brit. After a while we realised that we weren't going to get in and James was about to get his head kicked in, so we left and went to the Flotilla. Eventually loads of people left the Brit and came into our pub, so we had a good night of it, getting lots of drinks and talking to loads of mates.

Once Time had been called we went to Underage, or Studio 1 as it's now known, as everyone else had. I wasn't planning on it, I'd wanted to go to the hotel bar, but noone would've been there. After paying to get in and having a bit of a drink and a dance, Viv was very ready to leave, so I pretty much carried her back to the B&B.

The next day we got up for breakfast and made it to school for the parade. Afterwards we went to kitchener to see Dom and get some charity bands - Wear A Helmet. Then went to the Duke of York to say goodbye and went to get some food. Drove home between us and got back around 19:00. It was a very good, very expensive and very tiring weekend. :)
