We went to Arctic Circle for lunch which was next to the miniature golf course we had a burger and shared some curly fries we got soft serve ice cream for dessert mmmm, last year we went there just for ice cream and i asked for a banana split and they couldn't understand what i was asking for so i had to say it in an American accent but this time they knew what i wanted so it was ok!! lol
Miniature Golf was really fun even though i lost I did get two hole in ones which i thought was pretty good!! They had some really funny statues of animals including a big pig wearing a bow tie crazyness! lol
Ok so everyone got their results today except me i am so gutted apparently there was a computer error and so they sent my results to my old address in Ipswich! Talking about Ipswich they have an Ipswich drive that we keep driving past so we finally stopped to get a picture it's a little reminder of University making me feel not so homesick well if I was homesick lol! I miss you guys but not England just yet!

We had home made pizza tonight before heading out to the house party at Jason's, who is a friend of Lynn's. Him and his brother mike and another housemate are renting this really nice house it has a fully stocked bar, pool table, huge screen tv with wii and rock band including drums and guitar, foosball table and a computer screen on the wall which has all their music on and plays it all round the house very cool!
My nickname became London as Jason played fergie's London Bridge song for me lol! Everyone kept asking me where i was from and i got bored of saying near
London so when one of the guys asked me I said i was from Texas it was so funny he was like where in texas and so he stumped me lol!
They taught me some American drinking games one is flip cup where you have two teams and you stand on two sides of a table in your teams you each have a cup with a little bit of beer in the bottom then the first person of each team had to drink the beer then put the cup on the edge of the table the right way up and you have to flip it so it lands upside down then the next person goes and it's the first team to finish that get a point then the second person starts the next round etc etc, then the other drinking game you use ping pong balls and you have 6 cups with two can's of beer split between the cups for each team, you have to throw the ping pong balls in the opposite teams cups if you get it in the other team has to drink the beer! The team who get the ping pong in each of the
cups wins!
They have a crazy amount of flavoured Smirnoff vodka over here including strawberry and blueberry, they made some shots called blueberry muffin using the blueberry vodka and they were really yummy! Everyone took turns behind the bar serving people until people just served themselves when it was my turn i made an "English special" for Jason, it was a homemade concoction of guesswork, I put so many different spirits in i think he might have died if he had drunk it all as it was that strong luckily he didn't though! lol
Me and April left at 3am and left lynn and the rest of them still drinking lynn got home at 5.30am we were supposed to be getting up at 6.15am to travel to see a parade which started at 8.30am but when we got up again at 6.15 it was raining so their mum decided we should go to the parade at 10.30 so we got more of a lay in!
Jenga!!!Found this behind the bar and me and april played till we couldn't go any higher!

Next party get some one to teach you Quarters! J x
Wow the house party sounds like so much fun, imagine having an actual fully-stocked bar in your house, that's like the instant key to huge popularity, you'd have the whole of Hertford round haha! And I had a little look at your film on IMDb, we're SO there when you get back, how exciting! And I'm loving the Dory reference to the whale photo, woo! And finally I hate to say it but your "English Special" sounds awful lol, if I drank it I'd blatantly keel over and die there and then, did you tell them that's what we actually drink over here? Haha "oh yeah, well this the the WEAK version!" Still loving your photos, April and Lynn's house and garden look lovely.
