Basically, from 10 o'clock on Saturday morning and the following 27 hours were a lot of fun for me.
Saturday morning I had been invited to help a friend move her horses, which involved riding one of them. Now I've been horse riding before, but that was about 12 years ago, so this was a new thing for me. It was really enjoyable and despite the horse I was on throwing me off and being quite stubborn initially we gelled well which made it all the more fun. I've been invited to go again at some point, an offer I will probably take up.
After that, I had to work, which was the worst thing about my weekend.
After work, I headed out to meet a large group of people who were going out camping to celebrate a friends birthday. After walking about 2-3 miles from where we all met up to get to where we were camping (which was a disused barn and bomb shelter) and a campfire was up and running me and the birthday girl cracked out our guitars, but after several fucked up attempts at songs we gave up on that. So basically, it became a night of drink, fire, and losing people. I think most of us had a bit too much to drink though. One person passed out and later threw up, another just threw up. A few just slept pretty much the whole night cos of the amount of drink they'd had. I only had about half an hours sleep throughout the night, and that was cos I passed out when climbing over a wall. Just slept on the top of it. I had passed out cos I was tired though, as I was sober throughout the night, even if my balance was off. I was sober enough to be included in all the search parties of the night. Someone I hold dear to my heart had gone to show a friend of mine the way out but I had gone out to find her as it was 1 o'clock and there was no light and we were in the middle of a forest. The second one, someone had gone out to look for firewood and an hour later had not reappeared. Turns out he had fallen asleep a couple of feet away from where myself and the birthday girl were standing discussing where he may have gone. However, most of us just spent the night talking when we weren't out saving the day which redeemed what would otherwise have been a complete disaster. I tried out some archery when most people had left, and had the bow taken off me when I broke an arrow with my bad aiming.
A good weekend, but a tiring one. I waited for my dad to pick me up from a bus stop, but fell asleep whilst waiting. And then promptly fell asleep during the F1. And then just chose to take a nice long nap. So yeah, have spent about 16 hours sleeping in the past 22. Sign of a good day, night then morning :P.
