RAVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, I have just had the most epic last 3 days ever. I attended a double sleepover. On the wednesday night, I had 6 most...*cough* esteemed *cough* guests over at my house. Its a tradition to have Dominos pizza and chocolate fountain at my house, so naturally we had Dominos pizza and chocolate fountain. This time....we judged the amount of food we ate a lot better, which is a shame really, because it is ALSO a tradition for us all to be flat on our backs in the dining room, growling at anyone who so much as touches our stomachs. Then while Becca, Alicia and I (sticking to tradition) were lying on our backs, the others had far too much fun on my laptop, downloading goodness knows what, and scaring away my friends on both facebook AND msn - for which I apologise profusely.

We then watched 'Notting Hill' and, following the discussion on Hugh Grant's floppy hair, had a rather philisophical debate on the meaning of life - in which many of us had a disagreement over religion, and the existance of god, heaven and hell.

The next morning, we woke up at the unnaturally early time of 9. I made everyone croissants and pains au chocolat - I made the dreadful mistake of having pains au chocolat WITH NUTELLA.

After Ruth and Martha had been picked up, we walked Clo to the bus stop and continued down to Caversham Court (which is BEAUTIFUL when the sun is out). We had too much fun putting flowers in each other's hair and walking round with bare feet. We then ventured to the other side of the river, which wasn't as nice, and watched in despair as children were PICKING DAFFODILS!!!!!!

After we had got home and had finished our lunch, we realised we had missed TWO trains to Newbury. So, we decided to (as none of us could afford the bus) run all the way to the station. Our train was at 3.10. We arrived at 3.07 and got our tickets. We could see a train.....and....it went. We were distraught. Alicia looked up at the screen only to discover that that was in fact NOT our train and that the train to Newbury was still on the platform.....only...the far platform. This is the part where we REALLY RAN. And we JUST made it.

We got to Newbury, and I am hastily brushing over the bit about our Geography fieldwork to continue to Sophie's AMAZING performance of The Three Musketeers at the Watermill Theatre. She was Milady, the evil, murderous lady, so.....naturally, we all loved her.

After the play, we went back to Sophie's and had more pizza, watched Ever After, and slept. The next morning we went up to the tree house (which is right over the river which runs THROUGH Sophie's garden - jealous much). We also walked down to the bridge and dropped a bottle with a....rather profound message inside...for some randomer to pick up.

We than had some delicious soup (courtesy of Penny - Sophie's mum) and then caught a train home.

For these immense last two days, I must thank the following:

Alicia
Becca
Luce
Clo
Martha
Ruth
Sophie
And everyone's parents who permitted us to go gallivanting off for two days and/or allowed us to crash out on their floor.
