Well we (me and Dan) arrived at the airport and after printing off our passes online the day before we went straight to the fast bag drop. We still had a bit of bureaucracy and paperwork that had to be dealt with but hey! It's all fun!

I had arranged with the British Aiways rep at work for club lounge passes for Bristol Airport, good thing too because our flight was delayed! The fog was atrocious! Because of these club lounge passes, we had special yellow stickers put on our boarding passes and were whizzed through the executive queue, we went past all the normal minions and acted very chuffed!

Arriving in Scotland was great, the weather was the opposite of Bristol's, nice and sunny, yes in Scotland! We got the air shuttle from the Airport to Glasgow Queen Street, as we were earlier than expected I had time to get a frappacino! We met up with Jen and Keith (Dan's mate) and went for lunch, after lunch we went to a great japanese/chinese cocktail bar and had the best cocktails! Lucky us it was happy hour! Dan and Keith went off then, Dan was staying with Keith in Glasgow and Jen disappeared for a wee while and I met up with Helen, I hadn't seen Helen in 2 years so it was great seeing her! We ended up in Starbucks where I had another frappacino - do you see the obsession yet?

Me, Jen and Helen all went back to Helen's flat, very nice! Helen has massive plans for it and I can see why - tall ceilings, wooden floors!

I stayed with Jen for the weekend (Thanks hun!) and we got there so I could dump my bag, we had time for dinner and getting dressed up before we met Kirsty and Claire in Bar Buddha. Wow Claire changes every time I see her - mainly hair colour! But she was looking gorgeous as always! Kirsty is still the same mad girl we all know and love! I know we went to a couple of pubs that night and bumped into loads of people I hadn't seen forever but we did this every night so it becomes a blur what happened on each night! We ended up at BJ's tho! Oh yeah that was the night we went back to Jen's neighbours house! So funny, I was falling asleep and jen had to resort to poking me in the shoulder to rouse me!
