It's threads like this that make me miss Thomas C. Even though his stories were blatantly made up, they were hilarious to read.

Anyway, this might be a good place to vent about my embarrassing weekend. I was getting ready to go home from Boro on sunday from a weekend out. We took a 20 minute walk to the train station in Redcar (a nearby town we were staying at) when I realised I forgot the power supply for my laptop. We rushed all the way back to the house and persuaded my mate's sister, who recently got her driving license, to drive us back to the station.

Lo and behold, we missed the train by a few seconds and so we persuaded her to give us a half hour drive into Middlesbrough for the first time in her life to catch the train we would have switched with from the station there. We made it on time, but I felt like an absolute twat for making her do it all the same, so I offered her £10 to make up for it in what now seems like an extremely vulgar gesture. She refused it and it's just as well.

When I got on the train, I realised I lost my open return ticket so was forced to pay for another single and I only had just enough money. It was at this moment I realised I am a walking calamity.

What else did I learn from this? Buy an iPod touch or smartphone and never take my laptop anywhere with me again.
