Met up with Ally who I lived with in first year. She is absolutely lovely. Quite a tomboy like me so she was such a good friend to me in first year with the other girls with whom we shared so little. She came over in her little blue mini and we drove into town to post her letter and buy some lunch from Tesco. We then walked through the fields to sit in the park by the Thames. We went through the meadows which were absolutely stunning with all the yellow, white and purple flowers. It felt so idyllic to be walking through such beautiful flowers in the sunshine with the dragon flies swooping about our knees (though it did cause my eyes to go mad with allergies!)
We ate lunch (prawn mayo sandwich and and a punnet of strawberries) and chatted on the river bank, then walked down the river path and back into town. We popped back to mine dancing and singing along to Bob Marley with the windows down in her car At mine we splashed our feet in the paddling pool with some iced tea and some reggae tunes.
Later that evening I worked on my summer ball dress, finally making some progress and then went to the Barley Moe with Mario. We chatted (bizarrely) about what names we'd call our children (Adonis and Celia apparently) and then walked back singing Bjork and Shania Twain.
