Took a quick peek inside our house under going refurbishment. We're living in my sister's home next door, so checking the progress is easy. Originally we were planning an extension but now it seems virtually the whole house is being revamped. So far the new kitchen and bathroom have been installed, and the rooms upstairs have new lights fitted and painted walls.
Is that a lot after 3 months? With builders these days you don't know what you can get yourself into. A block of City University, including part of the student union, is also being revamped. So during term I found myself hanging around Angel and Barbican. The Elbow room is a great place to go in Angel. Its a pool lounge and bar with a nice, chilled atmosphere.
Then there's Gutshot in Barbican where I've now played 4 poker tournaments. The most recent one was the most disappointing, a NL holdem £5 buy in. Like all other 'happy hour' tournaments, there is a 30 minute period of 2 re buys. As usual I ended up rebuying to the full £15. I was receiving the worst hands you can get e.g. 7/2 off-suit; 3/6 off. After the rebuy period finished, I finally received a good hand. Pocket kings, the second best pre flop.
I went all in against 2 others: one with Q/8 and another with 10/K. Flop was 6, Q, 3. The turn was an A, giving 10/K an inside straight draw. And yes, you guessed it, a J came on the river. Absolutely GUTTED. Thats poker, c'est la vie.
I had to double check my January exam timetable which reads: 3rd Jan Principles of Finance........Thats it!! No Maths, no Economics. This means I'll have 5 modules in May. Lucille, I'm sure your timetable is not this erratic, how's 3rd yr Maths going?
