Last night was a good one. We had a potato, sweet potato, lentil and other stuff curry at Jamie's, followed by a terrible friendly at the pub between Sweden and England. I caught up with Rob and Andreas, and it was good to hear from them, and to see what they've been doing. Rob has managed to give up drinking and, ahem, smoking for lent, although the coffee and soft drinks that he is now consuming seem to cost roughly the same as the two more well known drugs.

I slept with Dan on Jamie and Clare's floor last night, which was lovely.

At 3 I met up with Marie, girlfriend of Julien (guitarist in the band) to do some shopping. We were mainly looking for some red fairy lights to wrap around the mic stand for the gig. We found some expensive blue ones. We will look more thoroughly soon.

Tonight at last I'll be playing with the band. Hopefully we'll be working on a new song. Given that this is the main reason I'm out here, it'll be great to start playing with them again.
