Well. It's safe to say that August has been the most intense month ever!! I live with 5 people in their own separate rooms and that was enough to drive any sane girl mad. Now fortunately enough for everyone in Edinburgh, I am very much INsane so living with 8 people in a 2 bedroom apartment for a month drove everyone else crazy!
Now, luckily I got on really well with everyone and there were never any real arguments. Not sure if that was because we all genuinely liked each other or if we knew we had to endure each other's company in close proximity for 30 days and nights (10 short of an Easter trial, I think we should get brownie points big g....) but either way, it was not as bad as the boys make it out to be.
This is where the beauty of being a girl ccomes in. There were only 2 of us lovely ladies so we got our own room thank fudge sticks and lluckily she was tiny so didn't take up much room, so tiny in fact that she got the nickname Little Leaf presented to her pretty quickly upon arrival. When the couple's started arriving we got kicked out of our little girlie nest and put into the boys room.... With the snorers.... Not. Impressed. If it hadn't been for those wonderful quies ear plugs there would have been a murder on our hands! Speaking of which, that brings me to one of the many interesting stories from this trip.....
Us girls got attacked by the boys a lot!! Whether it was out of boredom or just for comedy sake I will never know but on one of these glorious afternoon's Little Leaf was getting attacked by dogwig. Little leaf has one hell of a set of lungs on her so naturally was screaming to be let go. An hour or so later we hear a knock at the door and find two police officers there. We are all in a bit of a daze as we are up early for the shower Rota and show so trying to get a nap before hitting the venues later. "we got a complaint about someone screaming for help. They said it sounded like they were underground. Have you heard anything?" at this point I'm trying desperately not to laugh at this bizare situation. "ummm, nope haven't heard anything. Good luck though" shuts door. Hysterics follow as we all know it was us and that this was just the beginning..... A month of stories to follow. Watch this space.
