Sea and sand and summer

Today we went to the beach! We swam in the sea and played Frisbee (in the sea) and made a sandwiches (pile of sand) with a moat and damn and everything and had a feast of a picnic and got sunburnt. I think it was only me that got burnt. Oops. I'm a grown up. I can look after myself. Then we went to the tree festival when it was open.

Liz is now napping in my bed.

Yesterday me and Adam went to see Buddy. I decided to use some of the money from my leaving work collection. It was cool! I like 50s music and clothes. Anyone know of a good 50s theme bar?!? I wanna go. Maybe I'll just have a themed party one day. Seeing that show many years ago is why I wanted to learn double bass. Maybe I shall get some Buddy music and learn to play my bass! The show was a little spoiled by the scally grannies who wanted to boogie in the aisles, so were shouting when the music stopped, but it stopped cause he died. And they're going "Play more music" and I'm sat thinking "Shut up, he's just died in a plane crash". Pah. But it was still ace.

Then we walked up to Calton Hill and looked over Edinburgh, then wandered over to a Tree Festival. It appears to be like Garden of Delights, but maybe not as good. It was shut though by the time we got there! Oh well. Then we walked home. I reckon it was about 5 miles. It was nice. Then, about 9.30, Liz arrived!! It's only been 2 weeks, but she is taking the advantage of time off and coming to visit. She is here till Tuesday. So we had adventures earlier, and shortly will be beautifying ourselves and going out for dinner. Then tomorrow we shop.

Bin raiding was Tuesday, and those paragraphs were Saturday and today is Sunday, so what did I do in between? Mostly sod all. I was tired and ill. So stayed in pyjamas all day Friday. but that was probably good, because out the window didn't look good. Well, maybe it looked fun actually - it was still hot, but there was mist and you couldn't see far. A bit like Harry Potter land or something. Thursday I didn't do much all day, then was persuaded out for a drink to a party where I didn't know many people. But it was nice to go. I can't remember what Wednesday was. I think it was job things followed by watching a film.

So there you go, update. I now go nap or shower. I can't decide...
