Fathers, Mothers, and a cool quote...

"Do you want anything from the shop?"
"Cornetto" - From the movie 'Shaun of the Dead'.

Brilliant writing can be so simple.

Happy father's day to all the fathers. I bought my dad socks this year, haven't seen him that happy in ages. Absolutely brilliant...

Had a busy weekend. Planned to go have a drink with some friends in Utrecht on Friday. We came up with the plan to go play poker at the casino, but this plan was disturbed horribly when we heard that all the tables were full. Very unfortunate, yet we decided that we weren't going to give up so easily and we jumped in the car and drove to the casino in Amsterdam. We got a seat at a no limit Texas hold 'em game at 11pm and got to it. As usual I lost my 10 euro, another massive disappointment to work through... But, I ended up winning about 60 euro at the blackjack table. A good night out. We got drunk till about 4 and then I got on the night train. For those who have never been on the night train, don't bother, it is the longest train ride that you will experience. After getting off the train I walked for 45 minutes to get to my parents place in The Hague.

Which brings me to my mum. Funnily I scared her shitless Saturday morning when I came in at 6am when they weren't expecting it. Plus, an old dog is a bad guard dog. Our dog is so old he barely raises his head to bark at the person at the door before he goes back to sleep on his pillow in front of the stairs. Brilliant!!!!

So that's it. Weekend gone with little sleep and another week of studying and writing continues...

Have a good one...
