WOW! What a weekend! I have been recovering for the last few days from it (after a lack of sleep and very tired feet and legs!). On the Friday we finally arrived in Loughborough at 11.30pm having left at 5.30pm (a LOT longer than it should take), and we promptly got down to telling everyone the in-house rules, before sticking Happy Gilmore on (which was averagely funny) and then playing table football Exmouth V's Paignton till 3am in the morning with the boys - needless to say Exmouth won!
Saturday we left for the park about 8.30am having gone out to collect water and have a McDonalds breakfast, we left for Alton Towers which was a suprisingly smooth journey. The park itself was packed and the weather lovely. We went round doing Air, Log Flume, River Rapids, 3D Cinema, Pinball Wizard, Nemesis and Oblivion! Funny thing was that God seemed to be speaking to everyone using Oblivion so we're using it for our next service. The concert was fantastic, Siani weren't really my cup of tea but RSJ was really awesome (though not nearly long enough) and Delirious became one of my favourite bands again putting in a kickass live set! Getting back at around 11pm we again watched a video (meet the parents) and table football was played until the table broke(!). Sunday we went across to Emmanuel for church which was a really awesome service especially the Dave Morris singing which was highly impressive (plans to kidnap him and bring him to Devon are underway! We had some lasagne which had been kindly made for us by the infusion housegroup out on the church lawn and then piled back into the minibus for the return trip (only a four hour journey this time). Monday I had a day off and slept most of the time before going to the Egglestons to watch Smallville and have something to eat. Tuesday I was in school doing lessons and stuff, they were quite good though I'm starting to feel that we really need a half term! Today I've got cluster and I'm cooking so I really should go and get doing it! DON'T LOOK DOWN!
