Friday 8
Deb's 18th
Did an essay on the family = ok
Debs was in tears cos it was her birthday (huh??)
She was full of self pity and saying everyone hates her - shame!! (I reckon I didn't like her much then??)
Got to Stafford at 5.40 after a lot of hassle with the trains (story of my life !!)
had to change at Crewe
Sam's grandparents were here
Went to the Woolpack
Then went to see 'Dexy's Midnight Runners' at the Poly
(wow I had forgotten I had seen Dexy's... so glad I kept a diary)

Went into Stafford at 1.45
Just wandered round
Bought a pair of placky (plastic) earrings for 25p
Got back at 4.45
Went to the Woolpack for 8.00
At 10.00 pm 10 of us went up to Bingley Hall to a barn dance = ace
Had a great laugh trying to do the dances
At 1.30 am we decided to go for a drive down the A34 (how random ...but I suppose that is what teens do eeek!!! )

*********************************

I was sent this today by e mail and how cool is this.
The story goes that this chap in America installed a car wash at his garage. After a while he found that money was going missing from it. He questioned the installer saying that his staff must have keys to it etc...... finally a camera was put up in order to catch the thief.........
note the bird
The bird went in the machine
& came out with the cash
They found the bird did not work alone he had a few pals aiding and abetting him.
The birds were followed and they found $4,000 in loose change on the roof of the car wash.
How excellent is that ...... & how on earth did the birds figure this out???
