Weirdly, when I first met Del, we didn’t get along in the same way I got along with Maria. About a few weeks into her arrival though, something clicked, and all of a sudden she was the most random ditsy funny person I’d ever met (sorry Tom, you’re not even close mate!).
Since then, we’ve had random encounters on the beach, adventures in the city, perfectly timed signature hand shakes, plenty of ice cream, misinterpretations of each others speech and uncountable mentions of each others names (both in the traditional Del?!! style, and the mew and improved Wall-E style: Del-l?).
So this morning, when she decided to leave at 5am to get to the airport (I better be given an evening flight, this time of flight was not appropriate), I was sad to see her go. I woke up at 4.40 and gave her a hand packing, before watching with some amusement as she woke half of Piping Rock up to say goodbye (guys, you all looked stunning at 5am!). I didn’t go back to sleep after she left, deciding on balance to stay up, chat to some Brits on msn, and go into work half an hour early at half 7. I would have felt mad tired when I woke up anyway, and was awake by this point.
The plan is to meet up in Manchester a day or two after I get back, as she’s at Uni there and I don’t go back to bath ‘til the 25th. It’s going to be a strange experience, but that’s what this summer’s been full of…
Safe safe.
