The First Big Weekend

So that was the first big weekend of the summer

Starts Thursday as usual with The Canteen quiz

And again no-one wins the big cash prize

Later I do my sound bloke routine by approaching Gina's new boyfriend

To say that he shouldn't feel that there's any animosity between us

And then I even go and make peace with her, shouldn't have bothered

Then on Friday night we went through to the Arches

There was only one car going so some of us had to get the train

We got through quite late

Then we went to a pub to take the gear

There was no problems getting in

We saw some others waiting down the front of the queue so we skipped in

It was a good night

Everyone was nutted and I ended up dancing with some blonde girl

I thought she had been quite pretty until last night

When Matthew informed me that she had, in fact, been a pig

When the club finished we wandered the streets

For a while until we got to this, 24-hour cafe

I didn't like the look of it so we left and got a taxi back to Morag's flat

I couldn't sleep, so I sat about drinking someone else's

Strawberry tonic wine and tried to keep everyone else up

Then at ten o'clock in the morning we went downstairs to buy some drink

We had intended to watch the football in the afternoon

But we'd passed out by then and slept right through it

Awaking to find that England had won two-nil

Then we went to get the train home and had a few in the station bar

We had some stuff left from the previous night's supplies so we

We got home we decided to go down to John's indie disco

Same story as Friday, lots of hugging, lots of dancing, etc, etc

I couldn't sleep again so went to the park to look at the toon

Taking a detour through the playpark

To get in we had to climb over a ten-foot steel fence

Which resulted in severe bruising of our hands

Legs and groins, but we had a good laugh on the stuff

Especially the tube-slide

Which probably doubles up as a urinal for drunk teens

Then we walked through the woods to have a look at the toon

It was a big disappointment, but the mist on the lake was cool

Sunday afternoon we go up to John's with a lot of beer

In time to watch The Simpsons

It was a really good episode about

Love always ending in tragedy except

Of course, for Marge and Homer

It was quite moving at the end

And to tell you the truth my eyes were a bit damp

Then we watched these young girls

In swimsuits have a water fight in the street

We went up to the pub about ten

It was busy for a Sunday night, lots of people we know

Including my first ever girlfriend

Who I still find very attractive, quite frankly

But I didn't really speak to her

She's probably still a bitch, anyway

Her friend Gillian was there, I had a chat with her

She was still quite pleasant

At the same time I watched Malcolm make some

Terrible attempt to try and chat up a girl we know called Jo

He made some remark about her skirt

That was barely there the previous night or something

I couldn't sleep again that night

Thanks to some seriously disturbing nightmares

Matthew says I should cut down on the cheese

Went out for the weekend, it lasted for ever

High with our friends it's officially summer

Went out for the weekend, it lasted for ever

High with our friends it's officially summer

Went out for the weekend, it lasted for ever

High with our friends it's officially summer

Went out for the weekend, it lasted for ever

High with our friends it's officially summer

(Went out for the weekend, it lasted for ever)

(High with our friends it's officially summer)

(Went out for the weekend, it lasted for ever)

(High with our friends yeah)

(Went out for the weekend, it lasted for ever)

(High with our friends it's officially summer)

(Went out for the weekend, it lasted for ever)

(High with our friends yeah)

I got some sleep eventually on Monday afternoon

It was a beautiful day, and later that evening Malcolm

Introduced me to the power of Merrydown, £1.79 a litre, 8.2%, mm

Judith and Laura came round later, and we sat in my back garden and drank

Then Matthew came round and we went up the town

It's officially summer

Went out for the weekend, it lasted for ever

High with our friends it's officially summer
