Puppies and Books

Bonjourno Deano

Yeah, I just watched the Fosters advert. I like those adverts...

Anyway, I forgot to mention yesterday, that like two days after we got back from Greece we got a puppy.

Cute no?

He's like twice the size he was when we first looked at him, such a little fattie right now. To be honest that picture doesn't give you a real picture, he a complete terror, bites anything he can get his teeth into. My arms are covered in scratches and bite marks at the moment. He's only just started sleeping through the night which is quite a relief. 

Wow, that made me sound like such a parent.

Anyway, I also had quite a bookish sort of day. It started off me going down to the library to get loads of books for my History coursework on Italy. The library wasn't the most helpful thing so I ended up just getting any book that mentioned Italy in their index. Ended up with four books which seemed pretty unhelpful. I think I may have to either venture into the big library in Reading, that or asking my mums friend to get me some books from the University library.

Oh, and then the Song of Ice and Fire box-set I ordered a couple of days ago arrived. I bloody love these books. I'm already nearly 100 pages into the second book (I've already read the first book before I ordered the box-set).

Anyway, I'm off to go and get back into mah books now.

I'm Baaaaack!!!!

Hey there strangers, haven't seen you in forever. Yeah, wow it's actually been a whole month. Sorry about that, I got home from holidays two weeks ago and just completely forgot about you. But yeah, I thought I'd fill you in on what I've been up to and stuff.

As I mentioned before I left, I buggered off to Greece for two weeks where upon arrival I discovered how freaking hot everything there is. We arrived at like 10 at night and it was still 28*C. The holiday didn't get off to the best start seeing as I neglected to put any sun cream on my shoulders on the first day and they just burned up. Seriously, it was the worst sun burn I've ever seen, it blistered and pussed and burst and then peeled before leaving my shoulder all pale and weird looking. Seriously it was gross. That sort of meant I had to spend the rest of the first week sat in the shade pointing at the sun and shouting "WHAT THE BLOODY HELL WAS THAT?!". Didn't really stop me from enjoying myself though, I went swimming with the fishes (in the literal sense, not the mafia sense), had a rummage around the castle of the Knights Templar, cruised around the Aegean on a yacht, climbed into an active volcano and even had time enough for a little bit of shopping. Bloody brilliant holiday all in all and now I'm now going to bombard you with pictures of stuff.

The is the Hippocrates Tree which, as the name suggests, was planted by Hippocrates and was where he taught medicine. I kinda now have a leaf framed on my wall now.

This was some random ruins in the middle of Kos Town. I'm not sure what used to be there but the town was full of random ruins just strewn around the town.

As you can probably tell, theses are fish and they were in the sea...

This is me and my brother in the volcano *

This is said volcano from above. Isn't it awesome?

I'M ON A BOAT!!!!!

Yeah how cool is this places nickname?

And this is some shield I found in the Castle, it looks really cool.

Anyway, I'm sure you're fed up of hearing about somebody else's holiday so I'll leave you be for now.

Good Night xxx
