So went to castleton this weekend in Deberyshire. iIt was great the setting was lovely and it was a great turn out for the whole of Regia.
the only thing wrong was me falling backwards down a hill. Thinking it was my ankle we went to st johns ambulance who elevated it and put a ice pack on it. by Sat in evening I was in immense pain and elevating it just hurt more, plus the ice packs were freezing my toes off. Carl from the welsh group who used to be in the TA decided the next morning that maybe I had broken something, so off we went to hospital which was 16 miles away in Shefflied. It's not broken, the kind nurse said I had pulled the leg muscle and elevating it has aggravated it
So I am back on crutches.. which is not fun, and the bandage it all the way up my leg.
grr silly sarah

I am extremly excited about monday, which I am normally not excited about because monday are icky and remind me that I don't have work, but any way I hear people yelling "get to the point!".
On monday I am visiting a family friend who works for an event management team, He wants to interview me for a job in selling and advertising in this company! Am not sure if this is long term, or short but I will update on monday,
very very excited and hoping this is the break I have been waiting for :)

2 years ago I struggled with depression and lonliness due to the silly course I was doing at Hastings university (part of brighton). After my two years of suffering they failed me, made me retake something and then failed me again.
then today I found out that they re-evaluated this thus PASSING ME!!!!
I now have a Fda in Broadcast media,,, after all my suffering I have achieved something, and not feeling like a failure anymore :D
So rejoice as I am
oh and Bess can I have Victoria to sleep over next wednesday??? pretty please.. xxx

I hate tonsils and am very unsure for what they are needed for. Mine are extremely swollen and according to the doctor "quite impressive" grr doesnt help the fact that eating is a no no as well as talking (although some are happy about this)
I suppose its good that Bryn is away in India because talking to him on the phone hurts too much.
on the positive side of life though;
I am getting my tudor dress this week :D and will have pictures as soon as I have it
Bryn has a nice tudor name Giddeon... which is funny but I think suits him
OH and I have a big shiny new tent for kentwell... although my dad refuses for me to put it up and then leave it for a couple of days.
Also have been offered work on the sunday in the second weekend... so must email Bess... will do that now. Bess If your reading this I have emailed you and I am so sorry for not doing it sooner.

Ok so bored of my accident. My ankle hurts I cant move and it sucks.
So far I have organised my dvd collection, sorted out papers. And got annoyed at day time tv.
So I have one thing left to do. Conquer my fear of sewing and make something!
My mum is going to help me make a very nice tudor dress.
I know I am paying to make one as well, but I reckon if I start this one I can have another spare one that will be nice.
So any idea for designs?

Lets hope I don't break anything...
In other news pp has decided that I should be on the gentry pavillion.... silently panicking about costume, but looked at the station list and I get on with all the people there so no problem about that and I am sure I will be fine after some nudging in the right directions
All I have to decide now is who I am, what I am and when I am actually going.
tempted to tell my boss to shove it and do two weeks and all weekends :)
Right back to packing, must remember insurence, first aid kit and emergancy numbers when I do hurt myself...

Had a amazing weekend going to canterbury, having tai for lunch and then touring the catherdrel, even if the weather was awful!!!
so on sunday, de bec (my norman re-enactment society) when to oxfordshire, to train with horses, fighting around them, on them etc.
only experienced riders were riding, but it was great fun to watch
Anyway I let slip that I had a tiny fear of horses, so I was made to stroke, groom and then ride a horse, and you know what? It was amazing and I really enjoyed it.
infact I really want to take up horse riding now :)
so does anyone know anywhere cheap near colchester that I can do horse riding at?

The neighbours dog, It is driving me crazy! its bark changes every few minutes and just when you think its stopped it starts again.
my head hurts, I'm not sleeping and for once I would like a lie in thats not interupted by barking!!!!!
Try telling the neighbours, they deny its their dog, cause it doesn't bark when they're there.
grrr!
If any has watched "keeping mum" a very good film with rowan atkinson and maggie smith in it, well thats what I want to do with this dog!!!!
Anyway in other news, very happy. although can't find anything to help me with ww2 landarmy stuff.. annoying.
oh and I got a bustle... I can now walk around and ask "does my bum look big in this?" hehehe
Bryns in America, which is keeping me on tenderhooks with my emails... I never ever used to be like this.
Anyway, I am going to go and google whether I can shoot, blow up or wack over the head wth spade, the dog that lives next door and never stops barking!!!!!

Its a shame the cat wont sit on my lap. shes being very annoying.. she should be cuddled up with me!

happy christmas to everyone!
oh and a happy new year.
right so am at my cousins this new year which is down near portsmouth.
so happyly sleeping in the spare room this morning when suddenly there is the cutest mewing, trying to get my head round it I think, must be my aunts kitten, so go and open the door, nope.
clamber back into bed and suddenly I hear it again, opening my curtains there he is outside the window, (now this is on the second floor). so Not sure how he did it, but once inside thought it would be fun to curl up under the covers and puurr as much as possible... which is nice.
hmm the aventures of Sarah... must do more exciting things, will be my new years resolution.

what do you know about neoplatonic mystascism and its relationship to mediaval pseudo dionysian inspired negitivist light and its religious and architectural context?
My friend is stuck on his essay question and I said I'd try and help.
So if I was actually a tudor in tudor times, what would I being doing? I like to think I was called Nel and that I was happy, even an alchemists apprentice. But what if i was and I am now an ancestor of that person re-enacting what I exactly did. Except it wasn't me it was my ancestor.
sorry had the weirdest dream where that happened.
hmm, really need to concentrate on other things but this keeps going through my head..... ooo chocolate, nevermind.
