Hey little sister who is actually taller than me! Thanks for the
apostrophe clarification. Mr Anderson loves a good grammar-based
conversation so hopefully you’re in his good books (for once!).
Can’t write much as I’ve only got five minutes of Internet time left,
but what about this for an idea… how about you come and stay with me in
my halls for a weekend soon? I’m thinking the weekend after next? You
could come after school on the Friday and head back to Scarnbrook on
Sunday.
Strictly speaking, under 18s aren’t allowed but I’m sure it won’t be
a problem given that you look older than me! I reckon Dad could give you
a lift to the station and pick you up etc and it’s only a short train
journey. What do you think?!

Ummmm yesssss! Checked it all over with Mum and Dad and they’re happy
for me to take the train to Cardiff by myself (!) as long as you can
meet me at the station?
OMG, I also have some biiiiiig gossip for you. Guess who I saw in
town on the weekend? That boy you used to fancy at school! Tom Brinton!!
He was in Cafe Amoré having lunch with his mum :))))))) She looked
familiar but I couldn’t put my finger on why.
ANYWAY. They were having some kind of tiff, and she ended up storming
out???? It was like an episode of Hollyoaks or something! Tom looked
really sad and embarrassed, before he paid the bill and ran after her.
What do you think that could have been about????
Anyway, thanks so much for the invite. Can’t wait to see the view out
of your window… tee hee.

P.S. Also excited to try pooing and showering at the same time.

Amazing, I’ll get planning!
God, that’s so random you mentioned Tom Brinton – I hadn’t thought
about him in ages and then only a few nights ago I had a dream about
him?!
I haven’t seen him since he randomly dropped out of sixth form after
just a couple of months. Sad times.
No idea why he’d be arguing with his mum. Tempted to ask Elle but
that would no doubt involve her figuring out I’d had a monumental crush
on him and I’d never hear the end of it.
Hope he’s OK, though.
Gotta go, will email Cardiff info soon!
