Train Leaving Doo

Well, I'm now firmly ensconced in the student accommodation at work, for a month before I move to Bath, as I need to work my notice. Shortest commute ever, as the Cottage is just 30 seconds walk from the laboratory door. It's good to be out of Rectory Road but not as good as living with Patrick will be!
Made it into work dead on nine, with half a cup of coffee in me this morning. Boy am I hung over.
It was a brilliant night last night at the Home Cottage, I arrived at the pub at about 6pm after having done some shopping in Sainsburys. I had a pint of Youngs Bitter and a beef stir-fry which was on special offer at the pub to celebrate Chinese New Year - was just about to give up at 7 thinking no-one was coming when Andy turned up and bought me the last Double Chocolate Stout, and assured me Richard was also turning up, which he did a little later. The three of us had a really good chinwag (and I had 2 pints of Bombardier which was surprisingly good) till 9 when the pub quiz started and Nigel turned up, then the 4 of us decided to form a quiz team as it was free to enter...someone bought me a double whisky which finished me off! ‘Peter’s Pansies’ came bottom of the quiz teams but was a good laugh.
