Revolutionary Rants

Mr Chicken is now home, well, has been for almost a week. He scored 100% on both sections of his Red Hat exam and is now a RHCE.

At the tail end of last week I went to Bristol to visit my younger brother. We went shopping in Cribbs Causeway (I got my shoes for the wedding, but we had no luck in procuring the bridesmaid head gear…) and enjoyed a few large evil capitalist with a green sign coffees. In the evening Alex, myself and Leah Al’s friend and house mate went off to Cliffton for dinner at Zizzi’s. Despite there being representatives of this chain in both Reading and York (altho’ a complete prat off my course worked in the York branch, which kind of put me off - it was bad enough having to listen to the crap spewed by half of my course mates at University let alone during dinner as well…) we had never been. It was very nice and I had a lovely calzone with rocket and goats cheese. After that we met up with some of Alex’s course mates for a pint before heading home.

The next day we returned to the shops and in the evening Mum and I collected Mr C from Tiverton Parkway. Saturday was spent sleeping and lolling. On Sunday we had a nice family lunch at the Stag’s Head Inn and then Chicken and I headed off for a walk around Arlington Court.

I went there yesterday as well, with Alex, who is home for his Easter break. It is a nice place for a trot. I had training on Tuesday and this weekend we are on a suit buying mission to Exeter. Chicken is back to work and busy. It is cold but the sun out, we are loving having our little car and I am carving my way through Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secretes. On Saturday Dr Who returns but we are both quite put off by the last series, so we are debating whether we’ll watch it…
