Day 24: Thursday November 3rd, 2011 The next morning, Jess, Jordan and I switched to another hostel because our other was booked. The pair of them went off to tackle Arthur’s Seat, and I had a day to figure out my life, meaning figuring out where I’m going to sleep … Get hard

Day 23: Wednesday November 2nd, 2011 That morning I got an e-mail from my Dad telling me to listen to the Peat Bog Faeries, because he clearly did some research into Scottish music due to my time in the highlands and they were a local band. Just 30 minutes later, … Get hard

Day 18, Cont. Friday October 28th, 2011 I arrive in Edinburgh at night, a beautiful sight. The lights on the castle and the Princes gardens make me hard. Then I realize my hostel is 30 minutes away from the city center. Fuck me sideways.

Days 16-18, Wednesday to Friday, October 26th-28th, 2011 Toby dropped me off at the train station, and it was a quick and easy trip to Durham, though the computers at the ticketing office were down, cutting it close, as always. I was off to see Durham, a big uni-town in … Get hard

Day 13-15: Sunday-Tuesday, October 23rd to 25th, 2011 Sorry for the delay in posting. I’ve been busy. This is a long one, so be wary. I checked out of my hostel, randomly met Jimmy at the train station (random meetings between us is a pattern, in case you can’t tell), … Get hard
