So we packed up, and due to the stupidity that is British public transport on a Sunday, had to get a taxi to the train station. From there it was back to Leicester. Because we had to get the Sunday train, it was 17.10 when we reached Leicester. We had to be at a social, washed and dressed, by 7. Being good guys, we waited for A to get her bus. Unfortunately, this took 35 minutes so, by the time we got home it was 6. I managed to talk to housemates, shower and dress and, via a taxi, get to the pub by 7. I am awesome. I had to get a taxi, because the fuckers I live with wouldn't give me a lift, despite, if they'd actually organised it properly, there being two free spaces.
I was one of the few people entirely happy with the meal, but that's because I'd gone for the fish and it's nearly impossible to mess up salmon, whereas it's all too easy to mess up beef and turkey. I ate like a wolf because I was v. hungry.
Went home, stayed at the house party for about an hour and went to bed. Due to state of near deadness, managed to not hear whatever riot was going on downstairs so I was quite happy.
