Good morning and welcome to the month of August - perhaps my favourite of the year because it's my birthday on the 18th!!!! Sorry I haven't written for a while, but I've been quite busy. Yesterday my sister Jenny and I returned from staying with my other sister Vicky in Edinburgh. Vicky is working up there at the moment and has a flat there where we stayed. It was great to see her again and her flat is really nice.

So we got home about 6pm and then I had a party to go to at about 8pm with my friends at a club called the Paradox. I'd never been to the Paradox before but it was good fun and got home this morning at about 1am. I've just woken up and had my breakfast so I thought I'd update my journal.

I'm looking forward to settling down in front of the television soon as it's Dawson's Creek day - the final three episodes of the series showing back to back!!! Wayhey! That's my afternoon planned.

Better go now - I'll write again soon. love Laura XXX
