Snowdon

Well last week was the trip to Snowdon, it was an ... interesting experience. However, we never actually got to climb the damn thing due to the weather, but we didn't waste those couple of days either. Instead of climbing a mountain, we got completely wasted!

We briefly visited the hunk of rock, looked up at it and decided to find a pub. Fifteen minutes later we had found one, and immediately got started on the drinking. We spent several hours there drinking and playing random board games such as Trivial Pursuit and Scrabble (I know, we're fucking wild!). Then it was decided that after we left the pub we would need more booze and some food. So each of us coughed up a tenner and 30 minutes later we had 170 quids worth of food and alcohol. We then headed for the bunkhouse accommodation, which is where things really kicked off!

It looked like we had bought way too much booze and that there would be no way we could get through it all ........ we were wrong. Several hours and multiple drinking games later almost everyone was off their faces and that's when things got kinda outta hand.

Somehow it was suggested that those who went to bed early (a.k.a. the people who didn't drink much, if anything at all) were to be woken up and attacked with toothpaste. I decided not to get involved at that point, and quickly made my way to bed after one of the individuals who had been woken up at 2am made it very clear that they were not amused.

It was 2 hours later before the rest of the drunkards decided to call it a night and headed for bed. However, the room they ALL decided to pile into was the one I was in. Being still very drunk and tired myself, I was not very happy being woken up, so I stormed out and decided to sleep in the kitchen. Safe to say that four chairs lined up together didn't make a very comfortable bed.

When everyone either woke up (the early sleepers, another and me), or were woken up (the drinkers, by the early sleepers) we cleaned up the place and started the journey back, which was a hellava lot more quiet than the trip down there.

When asked for my comment on the trip I responded with "I'm wrecked!".

And we get to do it all over again on the 22nd June. Snowdon Round 2: The Mountain is Conquered, coming soon!
