St. Nicolas Fayre

I really need to teach myself that just about everywhere worthwhile in town can be reached through Swinegate - last week (or whenever it was that my bike needed fixing) I found that on the corner of it is a cut-through to Barley Hall - and I used that cut-through today, but then I wandered for another hour or so trying to find Goodramgate. I did do the thing of leaving Barley Hall onto Stonegate, and then going 'High Petergate? Low Petergate? One of these goes to Goodramgate! But which?' and then deciding to go back to the market and walk until I found it. (Turns out I wanted to walk down Low Petergate) In the meantime, however, I found Fudge Kitchen and got a free sample.

( Shopping! Presents! Brandy Butter! )

Also, I'm in my house and my feet are freezing in tights, socks and boots. I'm also wearing a fleece jacket, my new warm thing made of alpapa wool, and frequently my new hat as well. I just ate curry. Why aren't I warm? I may have to go to my room, where there is no internet but there can be music and sewing. And there is a RADIATOR.

LARP on Sunday! I'll be wrapped up in two layers of fleece, my armour and hat&helmet when I'm IC, at least. Possibly also a scarf. At least, I think that my fleecy jacket will go over the shoulders... I'm not taking it off to check right now, though. *shiver*


ETA: Have put the fire on. An awesome thing about living with postgrads is having all the benefits of being a student while also being trusted with a gas fire in the living room. And the gardening.
