After cleaning I offered to go to Coles to buy stuff for reception (in a selfish way I wanted some more coffee which we had run out of). Amanda asked me to buy some packs of coke cans and water bottles as they sell them to the guests, which made the trolley very difficult to push around, especially as the streets I had to walk down were sloped so I ended up hitting a few cars, and then as I was minutes away from the hostel, the trolley tipped over- very embarrass...

I didn't sleep well last night either, as I woke up at 2.30 am and couldn't get back to sleep- this is one of the worst colds I've had! I've seen a stall in Rusty's selling Papaya salad (like the one I had a fair few times in Thailand) which appears to only sell it on Saturday's, so I had decided to get some for lunch, as the spiciness might be good for my cold (as mentioned in the website I was looking at on how to get rid of a runny nose out of sheer desperati...

Today me and Dane made homemade pasta- he made normal flavour, and, because I'm strange and had wanted to try making it ever since I read one of the short stories in one of the World Book Day £1 books where the boy made banana pasta for his mum's birthday breakfast in bed, I made banana and cinnamon pasta. Jamie Oliver's brand of pasta machine isn't very good as the rolling bit you roll the pasta through first didn't run very smoothly so we didn't get it as thin...

Josh had out me on to work today, to compensate for my missed hours on Monday, and he put me on to close which I think he thought was doing me a favour, but in actual fact, I would have rather have left earlier as the snotty nose part of the cold had kicked in.
