Well, we have moved at last! I am at Elly's using the internet; it's amazing how cut off you can get without using msn, bebo, etc. I missed being able to type any word of my choice into a search engine...

We moved house on friday 13th october, yeh, lots of people commented about that! However, the day ran pretty smoothly and to say it wasn't stressful would be a lie, but there were no added problems. It was really bizaar walking home from Ribler that day, even though i couldn't keep the smile off my face, and i almost wnated to run my way home. Notice the almost, i thought people might stare, and i had new shoes. Friday evening was fun, we only had half our stuff becasue the removal people decided to move us over three days. So, friday evening was indian takeaway on the floor, half of us eating on normal plates, half of us out of saucers. Elly and Tom were over for tea that night as aswell (neither of them like spicy food anyway), so a game of 'sit in a circle and say one word each' promptly began after food was eaten. That was hilarious! Shortly after that we all went to lowdown together, and i have to say, there was a lot of amazing conversation that night. The theme of the evening was 'chocolate', which of course attracted great numbers. The Epilogue, or should i now say Prologue (!) seemed to provoke a lot of thought and we didn't end up doing. It was baseed on 'If God is a God of love then why is there so much violence/destruction going on?'. A very asked question, but nevertheless, a very intresting and debatable one. This question was half answered, but was interupted by more questions, which was great. People were generally intrested in what we were talking about, i think a lot of people went home chalenging things, and really thinking about the issues we discussed. The topic we ended up with, before the talking ended, was judgement day, and whether it was actually something worth being scared of. We came to the conclusion that 'yes, it's going to be frightening, but it's also going to be amazing', for people who are not yet saved - 'yes, it's going to be terrifying'. It was a great night. Although, Ihave a feeling that people went home with more questions than they came with.

So, anyway, that was ages ago now. This week I am currently doing my mocks, which are going ok, I guess. I have only got one result back so far, and that was biology, and I got an A (WHOOO!). I have done 9 exams in 5 days and am currently pooped. However, next week will be fun. A whole 9 consecutive days off! Can't wait. Saturday, I think a trip to Ikea is in need, we have a pretty empty house at the moment. Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, I have no real plans, but then I am going to Wales with Elly and her family on Wednesday, so that will be fun. Coming home on Sunday. Staying in Cardigan Bay, you can see the dolphins jump from the window. And according to Elly there is an old fashioned sweet shop aswell, and I love those! I will have to start saving up for the lovely beach/ surf shops! They are my favourite kind of shops! maybe I will get new board shorts ...

It's cool living so near to the village, you can go and get stuff whenever you need something. Elly and me always end up buying Mars Delights and whatever she chooses, when walking the dogs. Yesterday, I managed to lob my phone across the path, which caused hysterics from Elly, and serious panic from me! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ... Walking the dogs is fun ...

So, i don't know when my next post will be, we are supposed to be getting the internet in our new house in ten days, whether or not it will happen, i don't know. I might be able to steal Ellys computer for half an hour in the near future...
