Swimming Cozzies, Portugal lost, me not writing, school concert.  Yeah, I guess your week has been quite depressing.  ;)  I just had a proper back massage from my mum.  It was really nice, albeit the first I have ever had.  The only problem is, me being me, I just went out to pick Iona, Emma and Rowan up from watching a movie, and I did something silly and have now hurt the shoulder my mum just massaged.  Oops...

I finished my RE yesterday.  I am beginning to feel the weight starting to lift, as I only have 2 literature books to do, and 4 art Tests.

How did the concert go?  ;)  I had to ask that, although I'm sure once you were there, it went fine.  (I hope)  One thing I find myself consistently doing is taking part in events or performing somewhere, or doing something, and overstretching myself.  I'd love just to go out with you, and maybe a few others, down to the beach with a picnic for the day, or something similar that is relaxing.  :)

Steve isn't v. happy with me for lending u that CD.  He says you'll record it and then the Youth Project will start losing money.  I just thought I'd let you know how he feels, especially as it's only a fiver...

Last but not least, WELL DONE!  I am realy impressed that you won all of those races. :)  You are a very competitive person, which is good, although if one doesn't keep it under control, it can get silly.  I wanna see the trophy now.  And I wanna photo, and... :)
