windemere | So, a couple of very important things

I am off to Stonehenge and Salisbury tomorrow. I've been waiting to go for TWELVE MONTHS (read: TWELVE YEARS) and so am very excited, even if it is supposed to be cold and I have to get up very early.

The Queen and Prince Philip are coming to U of L. To open the library. I am partly amused and partly really excited. Also, MS refuses to cancel classes that morning, even though the Chancillor of the school has told all the departments to do so. So, we're going to skip a very boring lecture on collection systems. And Katherine is going to know exactly where we are.

Mum and Edie are coming out for graduation. Considering that's a seven hour flight with a three hour train journey on either end for 48hrs, I suppose I should be grateful. I did tell her to come. The Aunt's first trip overseas is going to be a whirlwind, that's for sure. But I get to wear robes!

The Chinese girls in my flat forced me into a kimono yesterday. Pictures will be forthcoming, but once I had it on I didn't want to take it off. Apparently you can get very nice ones for ridiculously low prices in China. That's so unfair.
