That was the week that was December 8, 2006

So, this time last week, I went to Edinburgh to visit my brother. Arrived quite safely just before 7pm and was picked up by my brother and his fiancee. Got back to his flat which I hadn’t seen before and then was out later that night to a flat warming of one of my brothers friends. It was a nice evening and had a game of Cluedo to boot. I was paired with my brothers fiancee and, although we knew who dunnit I stupidly gave it away by asking a dumb question about whether we could guess. Ahh well, least I know we got it all on our own. Saturday was spent in town shopping and whatever and then back to the flat to watch the United match. Later than evening we then went out to a bar for a birthday party for another of my brothers friends (popular guy, hehe). It was fun but I wasn’t feeling that well and so went home early with my brothers fiancee. Sunday came and this time my brothers fiancee and I were out flat hunting while my brother was selling their current one. Came back later that day and the evenings entertainment was going out and watching the new Bond movie which I enjoyed quite a lot. I was left to my own devices on Monday as they both had to go to work and I left Edinburgh just after midday. Got home nice and safe and got the taxi home as it was raining quite a bit.

That was the weekend then however Monday night had one last suprise and that was a visit to A&E after I injured myself and it required a look at. Everything went quiet until Wednesday when I was called by my dad to tell me that my Grandpa had passed away quiet peacefully earlier that day. Although not a shock I was suddenly hit with guilt as I realised that although I had the wedding DVD sorted and ready to send I never did and therefore he never got to see our wedding which I dearly wish he had. I then had to decide whether I wanted to attend the funeral and, unfortunately due to a number of things, I had to call my dad back the next day explaining I couldn’t. The funeral is next Monday so those of you who believe in certain things if you could pray and think of my Grandma I would greatly appreciate it.

So yes, it’s been an interesting week filled with mixed emotions and a lot of different life events.
