I took a short break to see Katie for a few days, which was a lovely escape from the bubble that was Loughborough. She had just graduated the day prior in Medicine. We also met a few Americans, friends of her sisters who had come to visit, they were the friendliest Americans I've ever met, proper red necks. We spent a day down at the family bog turning pete, got very messy! Had a lovely BBQ afterwards and went out that night into the town with a group of friends/...
