Yep, it's STILL the long weekend. Unfortunately, I didn't have the chance to write this post earlier (it's not that I'm just really lazy!) so that's why I'm chilling up now. Also catching up on various internet stuff s/a Dakka, Facebook, and the magic that is Bishops Mail.
So, today we went to the bank, to sort out bank accounts, ie open one for me. So, we wait in the queue, get hold of a teller person thingy (who is Indian. Nevarr was right.) and they then tell us I can't open on. Without my dad there to sign it. Because he's the one who's name is on the lease agreement or whatever. So apparently, despite the fact that my proof of address is in my ID book (which is authorized by the FREAKING GOVERNMENT) I still have to have an affidavit signed. Which we (mum and I) got really pissed off at because it doesn't say so anywhere, it says bring yourself and your ID book and your proof of address. WTF?
Of course, knowing us, major shouting ensued from my mum, major hypothetical scenarios of it being in my dad's estate's name because he (could be) dead, etc. etc. bank losing more customers by the second. Lol. Hell, okes like this do not belong in my idealistic utilitarian socialist dream state. They WILL be extradictatedateddingthingy (or whatever their trying to do to Dewani).
Anyway, after that anticlimax, we went climbing, we being Andy, Josh, Chloe, and mum and P-dog. Which was cool. Went to Blaze, weather was perfect, got super-pumped coz we were out of it, and basically did some fun ~20s. All on lead, I'm quite stoked about that.
Then we went and chilled at Andy's house, totally pwned at 30 Seconds (the junior one. which is really easy for us old people!), and then basically I'm now sitting here at the end of a rather productive day. Blogging. Whatever else?
Before mum steals the interneatz, Guy, if you're reading this, send me an email or drop a comment. Sorry i didn't like call or anything, hope you're having a good time in Scotland! Have you found the world's largest climbing gym yet? No, seriously, drop me a mail... Or else I will first.
Sam out.
