the weekend..

Today i'm going to tell you what an awesome weekend i had. I realise its nearly the following weekend but better late than never.
Lee lives with a few guys, one of them called Ja (Jamie). He made the decision to go to Canada for two years where his family are. This means he will get dual citizenship which, as you can imagine will open up so many doors in the future. I think this is an incredibly brave thing to do and i admire a man with such strength .Afterall how easy would it be just to stay with his friends/girlfriend and live the same old life?! But he's followed is decision through and last weekend was his going away party... It was one of the best parties i've ever been to.
So many people turned up and to feel that kind of love forwards you must be amazing.
 We had organised a proper game related party. 90% of them including drinking granted...


This is the score card. I have a feeling a lot of thought went into this :) but it was totally worth it. Its pretty self explanitory. Everyones names are on then across the top, every activity people had 12 hours to do from 7pm. I was so impressed how much everyone got into the swing of things. There was a couple of people who weren't even drinking and they were having shot out of their belly button. Now i realise how 'Spring Break' that is but it was fantastic. The atmosphere was so happy and relaxed and i really hope we gave him the send off he deserved.

This is the lovely Ja and to be honest Canada is a bloody lucky country to have him. We met when him and Lee moved in together and admitantly we didn't really know how to take eachother at first. We're completely different and quite frankly i'm borderline offensive without realising it most of the time. But as time went by i realised what a sweetheart he is. I feel it's so rare these days to find someone whos genuine and has a good head on their shoulders. So once we worked eachother out i got to know what Ja was really like and i have to say its been an absolute pleasure getting to know him and i know someone like him will go far in life. I wish him all the luck in the world and i'm already looking forward to the fun that is bound to happen when he comes back.
