Just another Micra Adventure!

Well, on Friday night, Gayle and I decided to go to the last night of New Horizon and then stay over at Whitepark Bay. Edwin came too, and Gavin was already up there. We had a great time, even though the weekend was full of little adventures, but the best one was on Saturday morning. We were going for a walk along the beach, and put all our stuff in the car ... and ... well my keys were in my bag. I locked my keys in the car. In Portrush! Because it was going to take my mum a while to get there with the spare key, the weird woman in the youth hostel wouldn't let us back in and we didn't have enough money between us to get a bus (we only had what the boys found in their pockets) we walked about 3 miles to Balintoy, in the rain, and had lunch in a pub until mum got there with my key. Don't feel too sorry for my mum, though, she used the opportunity to buy a new bit of furniture!

Here's a few pictures of us in Morelli's on Friday night with Matthew ...

Oh I don't wanna stay at Baptist Camp...

... cos I'm tired and I wanna go home!

They say at Baptist Camp, the beds are pretty fine,
They give you half a blanket, to cover your behind,
Oh I don't wanna stay at Baptist Camp!
Uncle Tom I wanna go...
Where do you wanna go?
Uncle Tom I wanna go home!

They say at Baptist Camp, the drinks are pretty fine,
They promise Coca-Cola, then give you stinky lime,
Oh I don't wanna stay at Baptist Camp!
Uncle Tom I wanna go...
Where do you wanna go?
Uncle Tom I wanna go home!

They say at Baptist Camp, the food is pretty fine,
A loaf fell of a table, and killed a friend of mine!
Oh I don't wanna stay at Baptist Camp!
Uncle Tom I wanna go...
Where do you wanna go?
Uncle Tom I wanna go home!

Can I just make the point here that Baptist Camp is great: the food is immaculate (see, Marty and Craig, I'm using your big words!) we drink water, and if the beds are bad it's the parents' fault!! But you don't get enough sleep!

Hmmm...

I'm just recovering from a week away at Baptist Youth Camp which was brilliant but exhausting. I will write some more about it soon, but as I'm driving to Coleraine and back twice this week, I will maybe leave it until next week. I will also put up whichever photos don't have children in them!

Coming soon...

Pictures of the girls' day out in Omagh!

But first I have to charge my camera so I can switch it on to get the photos on the computer. It's a complicated business, it is.
