19.05 - Today I had a pleasant surprise. The two people I met here at ACB a month ago, I met again! I was just sitting down to have a chat to Andy and there they were in front of me. I couldn't it. It's such a small world! I spent a lot of time reading today. I have almost finished my book already. Andy came down from his hostel at 14.00 so we hung out for a while just chatting and stuff. He had met someone he knew from Australia so he was talking to her mostly. I called Mum to let her know about the packages I sent her and the camera film as well. I will call Grandma tomorrow. I have sent an e-mail to Ryan which I have not done for a while and I think he might be missing me! In the evening I went down to the Globe bar early to play pool. Although I have got a bit better, I am still shockingly bad. I need more practice. I also met an Irish lad who was a nephew of Dr. Haggerty and knew of St. Bede's and Bradford. What a coincidence. Anyway, we made the most of the 2 for 1 shaker offers that were going on then we moved on to a few shots. They were really weak but they tasted nice at least. I also met Harriott and her friend again then we watched the goldfish racing which was highly exciting! It was quite a good night and I went to bed slightly drunk. I really do have to spend less money on beer. I didn't see Andy out though. I hope I get a chance to see him again before I leave on Saturday.
