Did you enjoy the finale Andrews?
I was quite pleased that my theory in Series 1 was proved right!
I will now have so much time on my hands - Lost has finished, Gossip Girl has finished, Ashes to Ashes has finished, Glee will be ending soon and I don't watch very much tv apart from those. I suppose I will have to hit the pile of books that I keep promising to read and haven't!

Hectic - all that in one week?! Fantastic!a_person wrote:
Very very very good, absolutely awesome, thanks for asking. In Cairo, I went to the Egyptian musuem and other famous historical artefacts related to ancient Egypt, saw loads of mummies, went to the spinx, went to memphis, took pictures with Ramses and others, went to Giza, saw all the famous pyramids, sat on a camel (which terrified me when it got up!), shopping (naturally!), visted loads of mosques and church, got told off to cover myself up! (hehe), went on a private boat down the Nile and a dinner cruise in the evening on the Nile.
Then at Sharm, we went on a boat ride and they took us into the middle of the sea and tipped us into the water.... terrified I was going to drown! I went parasailing, quad biking, climbed some mountains, visted lots of famous rivers and lakes (including one that makes you younger if you have a bath init) and then snorkelling in the sea where I played with fishes until the waves forced me back to shore
... Action packed but definitely amazing! The weather was boliling so I fainted on the first day, the food was not my usual British standard so my stomach turned by the third day but other than that, it was good! It was very expensive though, all my money was gone by the third day into the trip!
I don't know how that happened.
I am so glad to be back in the UK though!!!!

Most definitely - I already have my Wimbledon tickets at the ready - supposedly the Queen will be watching Centre Court when I am there so I will see in person whether she eats her strawberries and cream!
Loved the Williams outfit this week at the French - possibly a little too oh la la even for the french!

Re: The Diary Room
OMG - I've missed you all. Work has been all engulfing over the past few months. I cant remember the last time that I went to the cinema. I'm just coming up for air at the moment, and hoping that I'll be able to catch up with everyone again soon.
Off to work now, but hope to spend some time catching up on everyone's news over the next couple of days or so.
Hope everyone is well

Lol, yeh, thanks anakin. I am p*ying the price for it though (went shopping on Saturday and then to a wedding on Sunday) so haven't had much time to relax so keep falling asleep on my desk.
