Over here at least it was a bank holiday, so all kinds of events and shows going on over the long weekend around the country here.

As some may know I'm working with a friend to build his mobile photographic service. This weekend we were at the Glenn Miller Festival at Twinwood Airfield, the last place anyone saw Miller alive.

So, the biggest festival of jazz, swing and anything WW2 took place with everyone in 1940's clothes and dancing, shows, military vehicles, re-enactments, radio broadcasts as they were originally heard, plus bands all weekend headlined by Glenn's nephew, John. If you're a fan of the music, the time period or both it was the place to be this weekend.

Their official photographer couldn't make it so we were there. Lots of pics of the weekend at our site but here are a few to give you lot a giggle, since we were asked by the organisers to dress for the occasion;

Nice pictures, looks like you had a lot of fun.

One day (I think it was Saturday) I was in a swimming pool with my friend. Was a lot of fun, until...

uh, I might better not post the rest.

On the other day I didn't do anything. ;l

You guys did something somewhat appropriate only for OD.

Either way, I don't want to know

I was at a spontaneous party saturday and went to Billard Café on Sunday. That's pretty much what my weekends are like

We don't like discos so we mainly stay at someone's house or go to BC. There was a time when we were so often at BC that each time we came they gave us all 2 or 3 drinks for free

BC = Billard Café. A place where you can play Billard (8-ball I think, like snooker but with smaller tables and other rules ) There is good music, most times (which means rock/metal or oldies for me).

I can't remember what I did this weekend. Seriously.

After thinking hard, I remembered I was at a party that was busted by the cops because about 40 thugs showed up at the door and starting pretty well knocking it down.

The moral is that if you can't remember what you did, you were probably at a party. Therefore parties and the enjoyables at parties ruin your memory, kids. Don't do drugs.

Ah yea that's fun. I think billiard, snooker and 8-ball (pool as we call it), are all different things tho. I only play 8-ball . The rest is too hard for me :P

Well it's saterday over here and all I really did of interest today was deliver some pamphlets. And last weekend I was working on a graphics project all weekend and it got a merit. Yeah.

I stayed at a friend's house from Friday to today. It was a lot of fun.

My friend's mum has a new boyfriend. That guy is so uber-cool.

A steady source of bear is always nice. ^_^

Well, we did the basic things. Swim in the sea, play soccer, cycle, annoy my friend's mum and play cards.

Weird. When playing cards, I won almost all games yesterday, while today I lost most of the time. I always seem to have phases of luck.

Moved into the best undergrad university in Canada, to Plessis (plessy) house. Wooo.

Plessis panthers number one, we've got campus on the run!

My mind is a fog of the last two days, I'm so freaking tired and overstimulated.

I went snowboarding on the Great Sand Dunes. I got this snowboard I found in a dumpster, went up the tallest dune, and started off. At this point, I hadn't touched a snowboard in 2 or 3 years, since skiing is better. But boarding the dunes was amazing. Like nothing else on Earth.

I was at a friend's (who lives across the road) 18th birthday party. Given it was also a looking forward to university party and a 'Yay, we can legally drink' party, you can guess the mess we made and the state of the house. We ended up with a rolling pin behind the sofa, a bucket full of water bombs, a whellbarrow full of used spirit and wine bottles and a paddling pool full of beer bottles.

Alas I lack the enzyme that allows me to drink and so was left sober at 3 in the morning around a bunch of sleepy, drunken teenagers.

Heh... there's a few REALLY strange people over there...

Anyway... this weekend, I'm relaxing after having many tests and assignments all dumped together in the first week back after the holidays!!! Argh! But it's over now, that's the main thing. So yeah, I'm just hanging out with friends, and doing pretty much stuff-all.

Well, it's technically not the weekend anymore... but it sort of is still for us students in Christchurch, because uni's out for the day. (Due to snow!!! Weird time for it in mid September, but I'm not complaining! Great fun!!! )
