mymetalphantom: (Another Marcus icon...I love him)
So, I'm back from Wales, where I had an amazing (if rather boozy) few days. Laughs all round because my friends are brilliant people and the place we were staying was atmospheric enough to be downright creepy at times.

There was one incident actually. The two lecturers we went with were told rather abruptly that they had to leave the cottage they were staying in and move to another one. As we were going out early the next morning us third years (who had our own cottage as well) said that they could move their stuff into our cottage in the morning and then settle into their new place later when they had time.

So in the morning I was woken by them downstairs, moving stuff into our cottage. Then they left and I went back to sleep.

When my friend woke up and went down to make tea she came back up and said that the lecturers hadn't moved their stuff in!

WTF did I hear?

I didn't tell the other girls that story until we were leaving. Rebecca wouldn't have slept if I'd told her that.

Anyway, back in good old Birmingham now. I went shopping today, meaning to buy a hair dryer but instead I bought the box set of The Prisoner. When we were in Wales we went to Portmeirion where it was filmed and I suddenly remembered there was a time when I was in love with Patrick McGoohan's raised eyebrow.
