Allie in the UK: Fancy!

Hello!

It's been so beautiful out in Lancaster the past few days! Actually it's foggy today, but over the weekend it was sunny and warm. Cathrine and I even took a blanket out on the grass on Friday and laid out in the sunshine. There were people out playing football, and music, and everyone was just enjoying having such a nice spring day.

This past Friday night I went out with Leah and some of her flatmates to a restaurant called The Plough. It was quite a walk from County (where I live) and probably took about 45 minutes to get there. Once we did, though, it was really nice. I got a delicious chicken burger and most of the others got regular burgers. We had a lot of good conversation and I'm glad that I went. When I got back it was about 10 30 PM and Cathrine had been waiting for me to go out. We ended up just going to the Australian's flat aand hanging out in their kitchen. Stephan was in there for a while but he eventually left and we met three of their flatmates that are never around and they were absolutely hilarious. They were all English, and me and Cathrine seriously had sore abs when we left because we didn't stop laughing the whole time. We went back to our flat at probably about 1 or 2 AM.

On Saturday, Cathrine and I decided to stay in and have a fancy night with wine, cheese, crackers, etc. It ended up being Cathrine, Franchi, Annie, Emma (English friend), her friend Vicki, Henrich (because he walked past and Cathrine ran out and got him), Emily (from New Zealand) and me. Cathrine and I had gone into town that day and got all sorts of cheese and crackers and then set them all out on a nice platter and everything.

The night ended up being really fun. I had two glasses of wine and then started drinking coffee (since I don't even really like wine), and at about midnight we all went into Cathrine's room and watched a movie. Emma ended up drinking WAY too much without any of us realizing and went outside and threw up. I think it's because she is just so tiny. By the end of the movie it was only Annie, Cathrine and me left, so we all just chatted and ended up staying up until 5 AM! Which was actually only 4 because it was daylight savings that night.

Here are a few pictures from the night!
