This weekend, well Friday, was Guy Fawkes day. which was insane.
We went to Ottery St Mary's, a little town about half an hour away. The streets are super narrow, and theres this old guy fawke's day tradition of lighting barrels that have been soaking in tar on fire, hoisting them onto a few lucky guys backs, and running at the crowd in the narrow streets. i dont know how we got out of there alive. This primal instinct comes over you as the crowd parts and you see a huge flaming monster-type thing heading straight for you. my god.
There was also a really big bonfire that was fun to sit around, but came home stinky like nights at the beach in tracy ..memories.
ARgh. I'm still sore from polo. its so much work...but the really cool thing is that its at Druid's polo club. Can anyone take a wild guess of where that is? Thats right, good job...Stonehenge! right across the freaking street. damn
ps. i'm going to see Deckard in London on dec. 8! I've been waiting years for this.
i'm starting a webshots page. I'll let you know.
