You really had to make an effort to ram those puns in there.

Looking at what was on in Bristol over the weekend, it seems that the Lambing Weekend was the only thing that fits Gandy. http://calendar.whatsonbristol.co.uk/re ... e=0&Page=2
Gandy, ewe should be ashamed of yourself.

The Tunnels in Temple Meads. I got a couple of mates in the band.

You didn't so happen to wake up to an empty bed and a faint smell of surfing wax that had been hastily applied as lube, by any chance?

Well my joke was going to be that I was waiting for Gandy to say "oh yeah, where were you?" and I was going to say that I started in a tranny bar in Old Market before moving onto the tunnels where I met a weird bloke that kept on about how things were better when he was a mod and then the guy took me back to his place.
But I think you have already done that joke now.

And now I'm seeing the new girl again on Wednesday night!

So I have a friend over here. I'm in Melbourne for those that don't know. I have plenty of drinking friends and guys I'd hang out with for the day but but she was my one real "can hang around with day in day out" friend. We briefly entered into a FWB thing right at the start but decided to drop it once we decided to move into the same house.
Fast forward 4 months and she admits she had feelings for me and had been feeling terrible for the past month. I tell her she's my best friend but nothing more. She accepts, life continues. Then one night we'd been drinking and she explodes, goes off in an incoherent rage about how much pain she's in. We sort this out temporarily but these outbursts continue. We try everything but we establish that the only thing that would make her feel better is me starting a relationship. I concede to not actively try looking for a girlfriend to meditate things. Not the best of ideas, but I can't tell you how much this girl meant to me.
However, eventually I get lonely. I'm talking another couple of months celibate here. I restart my tinder. We discuss it and she's fine with it. I organise a date, not going out of my way to tell her but she finds out anyway. This was a few days ago. Another meltdown. She leaves the house apparently for good. I go on the date because I'm sad and lonely. Annoyingly it goes shockingly well. I get out of it and check my phone... There's a flurry of messages that I hadn't seen, the last one being a Facebook message from her best friend in Canada. She'd gone back to our house, drunk, and taken all the pills she could find. I check my messages and there's about 20 from her slowly getting less and less coherent.
I get home, she's taken a lot but, long story short, is OK after a long strawberry floating night. I spend the next day nursing her back to health, more or less. She has a holiday booked for 2 weeks time so she decides to leave the house, stay at a friend's and go on holiday, cutting contact to with me try and get some distance and see how that goes.
So we get to tonight. In a moment of weakness (mid-shite actually) I message the girl from the date. Nothing serious, just hello. My friend sees the message, freaks out. I feel awful. I mean, it was probably the stupidest thing I've done, possibly ever. I'm terrified of letting her leave in her current state so we talk it out, there's no answer but we both seem calmer. She leaves as planned but not before making me promise to never talk to date girl again. I agree.
So yeah. It's been a strawberry floated up few days and I'm now lonely, sad and confused. I miss my friend already, I can't emphasize that enough. She was one of my best friends, ever. I strawberry floated up something terrible with the text and have lost both her and the date girl.
I promised not to talk to the latter. Promised. If I went back on this and my friend found out there's a real chance she'd try to take her life again. But it's gooseberry fool. It's strawberry floating gooseberry fool and I hate it. Tonight was one of the worst nights of my life.
OK. As you were.
