Christmas Ball

Clare, Katie, Jess and I all attended the ArchSoc Christmas Ball last week, showing our support for the Archeology Society (of which Clare is Social Secretary and bullied us to go!). It was at the Caledonian Hotel in Gosforth, and we had a dubious three course meal and a cheesy DJ. Good times! Unfortunately in the photo's here you can't properly see the dresess, but we did get a full length photograph taken by a professional photographer there so hopefully that will be better. In the meantime:

My 20th Birthday

We celebrated my birthday last night, starting with a party in the flat and then drinks in Osborne Road and then on in to town. Rachel visited from Middlesbrough and Laura and Vicky almost made it from all the way up the road! It was a good night, but needless to say we're all taking a little easy today. I had many nice presents, thanks guys, and a sexy new laptop from Mum and Dad! Mum came up this morning bearing gifts and cake and the day wasn't complete without a trek round Ikea! Looking forward to a family meal on sunday as well.

Easy Baking

We are very happy this week as the old cranky oven that couldn't get hot enough to cook a pizza, took forty minutes to bake a cake and had a hob that leaked gas has been replaced with a shiny new one. Happy days!
