Newquay
yeeeeep today I went to newquay. That was by far the highlight. But before, I finished off Kits picture (at last - should get to you on monday if the post is okay). I also parceled up a tshirt that isnt mine and sent it back to my sister. She’d better give me that £1.63 postage back.
But that is beside the point.
Me and Jodie planned to go to falmouth today to buy marbles and material. See we want marbles to just drop in places so people might find them. Because whenever you find a marbles, you’re like wooow :D cool! Well, I am at least. And so is Jodie so we decided to give it a go :] We also wanted material to patch up the holes in my jeans on the knees. I thought some funky fabric as patches would work pretty well :]
Well, instead of falmouth we decided to go to Newquay instead because jodie said very truthfully that we could just go anywhere, and seeing as I’d never been we decided to go!
Before that though we needed to go to the library on campus to photocopy a picture. So we left, and were almost immediately confronted by a hailstorm that got worse and worse so we DIVED for shelter. As it happens a girl called Rosie from London had her door open so we went in her flat for a bit and said hello. Man it pouuuured down with rain for a bit. Then we left and I took two miniature Daim bars from the floor (there was a big bag of them) One each. But Jodie has yet to eat hers.
mmmm yep. photocopying was done. Then we stood outside under some shelter and contemplated the rain and I took this picture:

In the bag: parcelled up T-shirt, a drawing in an envelope, and three other copies of it.
On the way to Jodies car we found a cat:

:)
Before we got to the car we had this conversation, which I thought would be suitable for the thing I have of little everyday conversations:
Tom: We should stop off somewhere for a hot chocolate
Jodie: Where?
Tom: Anywhere we see one
Jodie: A service station?
Tom: Yeah
Jodie: Ok
blip.
Got in the car, and got out the CD’s for the journey :D

Then we drove, with aid from Jodies iPhone and google maps to newquay. Using the little map and seeing the little dot that was us travelling along the road was so cool =D Much easier to follow than the text-based instructions as well.
Journey.
When we got there we saw a little Café which turned out to be amaaazing, it had sofas and chairs and a piano that was all decorated and magazines and stuff :) There was a book about people who paint their cats. It was weird, but pretty cool in places.
We both had these amazing deluxe hot chocolates, so so chocolatey, really nice. With marshmallows and cream and chocolate topping. just mmmmmmm :) :) Would love to have another sometime. When we were done we took the mugs back to the kitchen and said thank you and good-bye.

We also had a nice conversation with a man (and I had another conversation with another man previously when I went on my own) about the non-functioning ticket machine at the car park. In the end we didn’t get a ticket, we just wrote a note and put it in the windscreen of the car, and it worked!
We walked round Newquay for a bit (the bay there looks soooo cool, its massive and has a shit ton of white surf, but we didn’t go down to the beach) We bought marbles (“Marbles, aye sir?” “Yep!” “Cheers” “You can keep the 2p [change] if you like” “Thanks, bye!”) and posted the things that needed posting, and I bought two nice new jumpers, and jodie got a coat :) suits her. ummmmm Oh yeah I also got a book:

Reading a little bit of it it seems so good, its about someone describing their experiences of summer. Maybe I’ll keep it until summer of next year.
On the way back to the car we saw “end of the days pasties, £1 each” so I bought us one each and they were damn good. We then drove home listening to gorillaz and played a prank on people by knocking on jodies door and looking through the peep hole then climbing out the window. Oh it was good :]
Mac and cheese was weird, but I’ve eaten it and it’s filled me, so that’s okay I guess. I wasnt something more now though. Maybe chocolatey. :)
