Well I wasn't gonna blog but I will - but I'm only filling in Karen's gaps
So on Friday, Karen dropped me off at the barbers, got a cab home, had a sandwich and was watching telly. Got a txt at 6pm from Andrew, "ring me" so I rung him. He was walking to the Bradford Royal Infirmary. He needed to get over to Huddersfield but had no money, he needed my help could I help him. At first I said no but then thought sod it, he needs my help and how bad am I if I don't help out someone in need. Especially someone I'd like to be my boyfriend.
So I left home, said I was meeting everyone early and got a cab to BRI. Met up with Andrew, he was visiting Gareth who was ill there. Andrew was staying with Gareth in Idle but had to move out and was going to be staying with his friend Tim in Huddersfield. So we got a cab to Idle and Andrew did his packing into a rucksack and a big suitcase. He kept trying Tim but there was no reply so I suggested he come out in Cleck until he got in touch with Tim. So, packing donw, we then got a cab to Cleck and met up with everyone in the Wetherspoons.
Everyone was rather amused that Andrew had such a big suitcase but it was OK really. Matthew was quite chatty, Karen a bit quiet. We stayed for about 3 at Spoons and then went to the Old House, I sang Delilah at Karaoke. Andrew had a kebab. Matthew complained about Andrew's BO (he's homeless, deodorant isn't a priority Matthew, and besides he doesn't smell that bad - its that nice fresh smell that I like ) and his dirty fingernails (but I checked and his fingernails were fine. I also told Karen off for giving him the cold shoulder, but she wasn't, she was just being her usual self with strangers.
Andrew couldn't get hold of Tim so I told Andrew that I'd not see him homeless and that I'd pay for a hotel if needs be. We also had a chat about us - yes we were still seeing each other and yes we were boyfriends. Yippee!!
We went to the Regal, and to Karen's amusement the manager put the suitcase behind the bar. Andrew liked the Regal. I hate it but its better now than it was. I tried to kiss him, but he was having none of it.
We went to join MJ and Karen for a curry, I had some onion bhajis. Then we left and me and Andrew were gonna go to the Travelodge but we couldn't shake of MJ he was like a limpet! Andrew commented later that NJ fancied me but I think he was just a bit drunk (hiya hiya hiya hiya).
We got a cab but the Travelodge was full, so was the Gomersal Park so we ended up in the Premier Inn on the Drig bypass. I stayed the night till 9.30 and then had to go home. Left Andrew with enough to get to Tim's and said I'd see him later.
My mum wasn't pleased that I'd been out all night, not pleased that I'd been with a man, or in a hotel, or that he was 22. In fact bearing in mind this is only the 2nd relationship I have ever told my mum that I was in she was completely rubbish. She went down in my estimations on Saturday morning and I am still pissed off about it. I know she is just looking out for me but instead of any support or congratulation that I had found someone nice she was questioning why a 22 year old would be with a 30 year old, a fat 30 year old, a fat 30 year old with grey hair except for money. In fact why would anyone with anything at all going for them see in ugly, fat, not very nice, 30 year old boring and smelly old me. I wanted to say that she managed to get married so miracles do happen but she'd have turned me into a frog so I said nothing and silently seethed.
Went to Harrogate with her to make peace with her. Bought 45m of baking parchment and £33 of underwear.
Came home had a shower, went to the club. Sat with my Dad for a couple of hours and then sat with Karen and you know the rest from her Blog.
Sunday did nothing - had a few drinks with Warren and Caro and my Dad and went to Spoons. Had a minor trauma getting back, The 23.33 to Picadilly didn't run, it was replaced by one to Victoria which took an extra 20 minutes and then I had to wait for and then get a cab home so I wasn't home to bed till about 00.45. Not good for a Sunday.
