Sweet flu Scotland
Well, that was a rude welcome back! After four fluless months in Iceland, the Scottish flu has knocked on my door. It waited patiently for my return and then on my arrival gave me an extra dosage of influenza Caledoniae. Yippee skippie! Ok, so maybe it's not Scottish but rather Icelandair's special recycled air flu. I should have stayed away from the people on the airplane who were distributing free samples of cold, snot and cough... In any case, it sucks! Three days in bed in the new flat certainly contribute to a feeling of great depression. But then again, the flu has rekindled my relationship with msn games, particularly the wonderful world of Zuma. The oh so friendly frog spewing multicoloured balls at the multicoloured snake has eased my pain these last few days...
Before I fell victim to mucho-snotto, I had managed to turn my room into a lovely hang out. Pictures of reindeer, seals and Czech flowers lightens the dark Scottish January and i am in fact quite happy to be back in St Andrews. I must say it is a bit strange walking around and not seeing all the faces of my friends from last year, but the new flatmates are wonderful, no complaints there. I hear that Iceland is covered in snow right now, and I have to say that I am a bit disappointed at the weather gods for not showing me a little bit of that Christmas snow before I left...it certainly would have been cheaper for me, instead of wasting all that money on flour...only kidding. If anyone's interested in seeing what the weather's like on my end of the world, I highly recommend this website http://uk.weather.com/weather/local/UKXX0976. Another wonderful website would be that of the Swedish superstar Gunther, his songs Tutti Frutti Summerlove and Ding Dong Song, really put a smile on my pale-because-of-the-flu face, just press on video and you will enjoy this brilliant man as much as I do http://gunthernet.com/. Well, the frog is restless, he wants to vomit some balls at that snake now.
