Good Weekend/Bad Weekend

Hope everyone had a great weekend!

On Saturday my Nan came round, which is always nice. I did alot of crocheting that evening for the craft stall on the 19th - think I did a large octopus, 5 keyrings and started a scarf. I've finished the scarf now - it's green and brown. Stripy.

On Sunday evening my brother and I went to see Russell Brand at the Royal Albert Hall, London. We'd got ticket about a month ago and had been really looking forward to going. I love Russell Brand, he's so funny! Our Mum and Dad took us up to London in the car so we wouldn't have to get the train (Thank God...). They dropped us off outside the hall and they went off and parked by the Embankment and had a wonder round until the gig had finished. They ended up getting a bloody parking fine...

Before the show my brother and I managed to sneak into the hall itself before anyone else was in there lol. We're getting good at sneaking around undetected! Nothing was happening, just people setting up the lights and stuff. The gig itself was fab! Russell's a very funny man. We'd been to see him before, earlier this year at the 02 Arena. That was great too. It was basically the same show, with little bits different here and there. It finished at about 10:15pm, we found our Mum and Dad and went home. After stopping off at McDonalds first as we were hungry..

When we got home at about 11:30pm I walked past my pet hamster Nora's cage, and she was laying on top of her bed. I sat there for ages and she didn't move. Turned out she'd died. I couldn't believe it - we've only had her for about a year. Such a shock, and a horrible way to end what had been a fab day. We're gonna bury her in the garden tomorrow morning. One of my other pets died last week - my goldfish Frankie. Seems like all my pets are dying on me, I hope Kryten the fish will be ok.

So it was a sort of half/half weekend. The good was very good and the bad was very bad :(
