August Bank Holiday Weekend

This is also known as my last weekend of freedom before school starts.

I spent the weekend in Newhaven (about 10 minuets from Brighton) with 8 of my friends.

We rented three rooms in a hotel from hell!! There was damp in ALL three rooms and it was really overpriced. They also treated us really badly. They knew that we were all young people so we assumed that they would realise that we would spend the whole weekend drinking which would mean LOTS of noise. They clearly didn’t as they complained about the noise we made. On the Saturday morning they woke us all up at 6.30AM by banging on our doors and shouting an obscenity at us…we were not happy.

We travelled down on the Friday, boys in one car and girls in another. Needless to say the girls got there first! We then unloaded the cars and went into our rooms. We had a bit of a wander around Newhaven and soon realised there wasn’t much there! We walked back to our accommodation (which was above a pub) to get some food and have some drinks. Then we headed to the boys room to start the drinking games…the night ended rather messily!!!

Saturday we decided we would try to find some other accommodation as we were clearly not wanted at our current one. However we couldn’t so we stayed but decided to spend our cash in the pub by the beach. There we managed to drink the pub dry of….wait for it….blackcurrant cordial haha. This is because we were all playing a game involving cider and black. To quote the bar lady “you have all drunk the amount of blackcurrant I sell in 6 months in one day!”

Sunday we checked out (and not a moment too soon!) and spent the day in Brighton. Walking along the seafront and playing in the arcades. I managed to win two ducks and a mug (not bad when I only spent £1). Then we drove back home and went to a local pub for the final dinner.

Monday – day of rest!!

There is some bad news in this weekend…my camera is no more :( I believe that the damp in the hotel may have caused this. Therefore a new camera will be purchased in the next few days.

School is open tomorrow which means I will be able to sort our bits of paperwork…the amount is endless!
