Today has been sunny, and warm. It's wonderful. We made a full breakfast, and ate it in the garden. I was sat there in just my sheep covered pyjamas. Just to prove the world's gone mad, a wasp came to join us. A wasp, in February? Poor thing's going to freeze to death tonight! I hope it stays this way. I know it's global warming, but in happy la-la land it feels like divine retribution for the awful summer we had last year. I went up to uni earlier, and everyone I passed had a smile on their face. Sitting out in the garden made us all the more determined to move somewhere sunny when we've got the means, we've been thinking of Australia for a while now.
We have a sweepstake on at the moment. It's been running for 10 days. You have to bet how long it'll take our housemate, Chris, to spend £250. He's owed us money for months. He's finally getting straight, and ended up with £250 to live off this month. We're no longer buying anything for him (we were covering everything) - we've made it perfectly clear he's getting nothing else. £250 to us is a hell of a lot of money - both of us live off that in a month (not including the rent, of course!). Chris, however, has no concept cost and budgeting. We're guessing he's down to his last £20, if that, and he has no more money until the final Thursday of the month. He's already trying to take the piss, taking anything that we haven't put our name on - you feel like an idiot labelling all your food, but we're learning the hard way we have to. It really sucks, because Chris was our best friend...
Anyhow, I'm going to stop bitching. I'm very happy the weather's nice, I've found another job to apply for, and I'm about to make salmon and leeks in a honey mustard sauce, with roast potatoes. So it's all good really...
