[Good Ol' U of K]

Back in the good ol’ U of K again for Glastonbury and a few other choice, family events. Today was my little sister Abigail’s 10th birthday party.Being the love buying sibling that I am the simple application of dollars to Pokeman Team Rocket cards (not yet out in the UK) meant that I was top in the sibling ranks for at least 10 minutes. Sigh – such simple pleasures packaged in a nice shiny foil wrapper…

Perhaps more fun is that I’ve borrowed my dad’s Citroen 2CV for my time here. Driving this half tin half fibre glass machine is the driving equivalent of juggling raw eggs. Although the eggs would probably provide more protection in a crash. Luckily it doesn’t go above 50 mph anyway.
