Devon is a pretty crappy place to live, its dark and miserable and closed for half of the year with added misfortune of nothing ever exciting happening around here, travelling for a good time does suck rather a lot. On the whole I think its at the time of year where we're all trying to grab hold onto some control in our lives and sort the things that matter. I'm glad you're relationship is going so well, nothing makes me more than happy couples.
Flatmates are all cunts in the end... but if you go in knowing that, you can have a fine old time...
I guess solitude is easier though... though I'm not sure parents will help....
Fingers crossed for you?
