Last night I went to Terry's 18th birthday party, not only was it a celebration of his age but for many of us, our exams had all finished, and it was an excellent opportunity to have some well deserved fun, without a care for revision and test timetables. The festivities were only later marred by the arrival of some unwanted guests, who, since the party was being held in the public venue of a Cricket Club which Terry had rented for the evening, had invited themselves to join us. However their only intention was to cause trouble and there were many violent altercations. Police later arrived and things calmed down, although a few friends of mine were quite badly injured.

everyone got home safely without further incident.
