Rain. Then some more rain. Then it gets silly.

Well, that was the camping rapidly turned into a disaster. Got to the campsite on Friday, thought it was a bit wet, but not too bad, went for a spot of lunch, got the car stuck, nobody else was going to get there at that point anyway, I escaped with half the stuff, couldn't get back to Phil when it turned out the AA weren't going to arrive on Friday, he was stuck there for 24 hours (with a nice lady making tea and giving him a bed), rescued him on Saturday, car still stuck there, and all a big disaster.

Can't even write short sentences now.

Oh well. Maybe next year. Did manage to get into Swindon to spend the 20 quid HMV voucher (or card, really) that eventually came on Friday morning. The day after I chased it up. (£228.26 this year now). And the Virigin voucher I'd got. Hot Fuzz on DVD (excellent film). For the PS2, I got Okami (looks like a very nice Zelda type game, all drawn in a strange Japanese style), and the DS version of FF3 (always a good thing, an FF game?).

Only problem is, the PS2 memory card has now died, and a replacement is on it's way from Amazon. So I can't play Okami until that arrives. Well, I could, but wouldn't be able to save it. Which would be bad. The card dying doesn't, of course, surprise me in any way at all after the rain related disaster of the weekend. Oh well. At least my jeans have dried out now.
