The has come that the Olympic Torch, currently on the way around the UK bringing the flame within 1 hour of 90% of the population, arrived in the North-East.
So at about 4 o clock, regardless of the torrential downpour that seemed to drift over and over again over the region, we set out to Tow Law to see it arrive. We got there an hour early and got ourselves a spot beside some policemen who we overheard tell a photographer was the best place for everything to happen. Awesome.
In the high temperatures, I worked all morning yesterday. The library reached a high point of 25d.c. which meant for me a general frying feeling. However, by 2pm I finally had people to enjoy the summer with, thanks to friends actually being relieved of exams for another year. The day was a cracker.
Drinks by the river.
Pub meal.
Drinks in the house whilst chilling with housemates and friends.
An episode of EastEnders.
And this morning - a movie in bed.
Couldn't be a better way to start they summer :) And here's to this blog filled with many little adventures and wanderings :).
