The Patrol, China town & back to ropes.

I spent last weekend in Toronto. We left early on Thursday morning got to Lindsay’s house after a few detours about 3.30 and went shopping in Bolton, watched a few movies that night [ Children of men, Little Miss Sunshine & Stranger than fiction ] all worth a watch. Friday night we were made to go to this horrendous Korean karaoke place by Lindsay’s brother. It was so wacky and loud that I ended up wondering around China town for an hour. Saturday we went into Toronto again and went to an outdoors shop to equip ourselves for the spring [ rain trousers and a bug suit for me! ] We had dinner in the nicest restaurant its called Rich tree. When you arrive you’re given a swipe card and you go around lots of dinner stations and order the food you want and pay at the end the total on your card. The food was so good great change from camp food. Then off to the Snow Patrol concert which was amazing! Not much else to say apart from it was nice to hear the Northern Ireland accent again. It was funny the girl next to me said “You talk like the singer!” Sunday we spent the day about the house and then came back up the road to camp. This week at work was pretty good think I had the best group of kids I’ve had to date even wish they could have stayed longer. Because the snow has melted we're back to doing otdoor ropes not as much fun as skiing and tubing! Since I left last weekend I decided to stay here for Easter it’s been very relaxing, we finished at lunch time on Thursday. Had dinner out with my bosses and tonight Tom and I are being taken out for dinner by the head chef then having an Indianan Jones night. Have set up a projector in the staff lounge and we will all have a sofa each! It’s nice to kinda have the place to yourself- There are only 4 of us on site at the minute.

Here’s to having the house to myself, to playing basketball, to acquiring stuff!, having to move house for the Spring, “eh do you know what that means?”, the snow melting, giving up fizzy drinks, the skunks moving from under our house to under the arts and crafts room, “you do realise you cant lie!”, Angelo putting a waist harness on as a chest harness!, that even though Ive been here for nearly 7 months I still try to get in to vehicles at the wrong side doesnt matter if Im the passenger or the driver, Video taping Tom after he got his wisdom teeth out and to putting a ten pound weight in Lindsay’s back pack
