Friday 17th November 2017

Late night last night, but up so early today to bring the car in for it's service. I've figured that I'm going to look after this one, it's 20 years old but I had a nice chat with the garage the other day about it all and basically as long as they can look at it every 10,000 miles, then it can run for a few more years. Great garage, brilliant service again today, changed the oil and all that, car feels as good as new.

Then it was Edd's stag do. I really felt the pressure today, even though I shouldn't have done, but this is my first time as a best man and I just want everything to be perfect. Picked him up, got him over to Cambridge, and then a bunch of us went bowling. I got the hang of it by the second game and didn't come last (came second to last) and I reckon if there was a third game I could have finished mid-table. Not that it's about that, of course.

Few beers, and then a curry. Proper Indian restaurant and I didn't recognise many things on the menue (I usually default to a Korma), not sure what it was I had but I felt like I was on fire.

Edd's stag was never going to be typical, because Edd isn't a big drinker and neither of many of his friends. We ended up in a nice quiet pub, and the whole thing was wrapped up just before midnight. It's what he wanted, but I kept thinking that I was being a rubbish best man for the whole thing being so tame. Maybe I shouldn't have vocalised this so much, but it all came from a good place. He seemed happy enough anyway, which is the most important thing.
