Hey everyone. Hope you're all doing well. It seems like ages since i've been on here. I've had an absolutely manic week, but it's been great.

I'm back in Scotland just now, after the whole summer being back in Ireland. I'm over here to get a flat for uni this year, and yesterday myself and my flatmate got THE flat we came over for. It's absolutely stunning! And the best bit is, this year i'll be living right next door to my best mate Sara. It's going to be amazing. Yesterday was just brilliant. We got the flat (haven't moved in yet- paperwork and admin stuff to wait to clear..) and then went into Glasgow. I found a pub that sells my favourite beer (one i didn't think was available outside of Ireland!) and it's only £1.50 a pint! So we were in there for quite a while yesterday. Whilst we were in there, the barman played my favourite album by The Frames. Twice. Fantastic! And the food was bloody good too. Less than £5 for the biggest (and nicest, possibly) portion of fish and chips i've ever had. Woah!

It's just been absolutely mental being back here and seeing all my old friends again. I forgot how much i love this place! It’s just so good to be back

Cheers guys.

Abs, Glasgow seems to know a thing or two about Fish & Chips- especially in Irish pubs!

Hi Paul! I was wondering where you were. Sounds like you had a great day. Hope that the rest of your year goes as well. What are you studying again?

I'm studying Social Sciences. Going into 4th year this year, so all hard work and less play! I won't say no play, cos i know that just won't happen! ;)

Are you keeping the name of this pub to yourself?

Hi Paul! I wondered where you've been, but now I have the answer, hehe. I'm glad you guys got the flat you wanted. Besides, your best friend lives next door, that's the best (or is the best the pub you found? :p)
See you.

Cool for you and very uncool for me.

What do you study in social sciences ?

Heya!
Your post made me want to go study again but i don't think a husband and a 7 month old baby in a student flat is a good idea, LOL
The fact that it would be in Glasgow, could tempt my husband though:)
