Spearsy 's last day

Well yesterday was Spearsy's last day... for those who don’t know Spearsy he is a total legend and my trainee partner in crime... he's off to Senegal where I am sure he shall acquire many brides (its legal there) but mostly he shall become most wise and probably take over the known (World Vision) world... we had a sort of presentation at work where we both got these amazing gifts - a huge red spotted wash bag full of everything you could possibly ever need when in foreign lands... like mini pink maglights, universal plug hole, hand wash, water purification tablets, hairbands, chocolate, mini everything on the earth... seriously there are so many things it twas amazing... and then there was a lovely book full of photos and then i almost cried (fairly predictable I suppose)...

anyways the title of this post reminds me of a ben folds 5 song 'stephens last night in town'.. not sure that the lyrics remind me of Spearsy but its kind of entertaining...

Everyone gather round now, sing us a song
Just in case by tomorrow, it happens he's gone
For two weeks and seven days our fair foreign friend
I have this feeling we might never see Steven again

But we thought he was gone
And now he's come back again
Last week it was funny
And now the joke's wearing thin
'Cause everyone knows now, that every night now
Will be Steven's last night in town

He's charmed everyone here, except Tamara Easter
Who later revealed to him her innermost secrets
Won us over with stories about Linda McCartney
Lost points with the ladies for saying he couldn't
Love a woman with cellulite

We were talking 'bout something, seems like was funny
And then Steven got quiet, I think Steven was mad
Maybe he wasn't mad, but we felt very strange
In the moment, but the moment was passed
And forgotten about


On another note, packing has commenced albeit at an exceedingly slow pace... the car has stalled at about £1,000 on ebay...
now off to Kew Gardens rah rah
