We then headed down to a cheap grocery store cause Robin and Soraya wanted a drink, so me, Alice and Scarlett went to the nearby SuperDrug so I could get some hair dye. Us three wandered round SuperDrug until Robin and Soraya arrived, then Robin and I looked at the hair dye whilst Soraya looked for some cream. However, I didn't get any hair dye. As Soraya went to pay, we were stopped by the staff and one of them said "Right, before you leave, which one of you has it?" and Soraya, Alice and I looked at each other in confusion, then Scarlett pulls a golden lip gloss or something out of her pocket and hands it to the lady talking to us. Then, the lady tells us we are banned from coming into this store??? As in, the entire group! And if we try to come back in, it would be classified as trespassing and the police would get involved! They let Soraya pay for her cream and we just stood outside and asked Scarlett what happened. Scarlett admited to having a problem and that she'd stolen some things from there last week. Scarlett then went home and the rest of us went to some other stores to look for chain and hair dye.

Eventually I got some hair dye from Sainsbury's but unfortunately there was no blue dye that Robin wanted. We then headed to Greggs and Robin and I got some food there, and on our way out we saw Scarlett biking past us from SuperDrug, presumably returning more things and trying to get the group unbanned, but she just went back home. 

We were walking to Subway, because Soraya wanted a sandwich and I wanted a drink. On our way there, Robin noticed a girl following us and turns round to me and says "Hey, there's someone who wants to speak to you" and I turned round and see an alt girl stood behind us! She asked if she could have my number, and I said yes, so she went back to her mum (because she didn't have her phone with her) and wrote my number on the phone. She then went back to her mum and we carried on to subway. All the way there though, all my friends were telling me that she must've been hitting on me, which I didn't believe. But either way, I made a new friend, and it's been around 3 years since I've made new irl friends! 

We got our subway and went and sat in the nearby West End park, and ate our food. Robin fed the geese and some moorhens the pellets, which was fun. A wasp kept flying near Soraya too, which wasn't great. Another friend, Grace appeared out of the blue, and talked with us for a bit, then carried on through the park. Once we'd finished, Robin was going to take us to an abandoned building! :D

As we were leaving the park, there was a group of four men in their 20s?? I think?? Anyway, one of them catcalled me, which scared me, one of his mates said "Aww, you're scaring her away!". First of all, I'm a minor, I'm 17. Secondly, bro, you are like some kind of druggie, please stay the hell away from me. Thirdly, you think I'm a "her"? Anyway, Rebecca came between me and the men as we were walking away, and sorta puffed herself up to kinda defend me. So that was a rather horrible experience, that's the second time I'd ever been catcalled. I'm trying to remember what the creepy guy said. I think he said something along the lines of "Hey beautiful~", either way, I wouldn't have thought him as creepy if he didn't stare and didn't speak, so next time keep your tongue behind your teeth and your eyes to the floor. ;-;

Eventually we got to Robin Good Fellow's park, which has a zipwire! The only park with a zipwire in our town! We walked through the park to get to the abandoned building, but it had been fenced off D: So instead we just vibed on the swings and the zipwire for a while. Rebecca attempted to pick me up, but we both ended up on the floor XD Robin also wanted to pick me up, the first attempt ended up on the floor too, but the second time he picked me up with ease. Please do not Katnap me, I will cry XC 

Eventually we all decided to go home, and I got to know my new friend, her name is Red and she's really nice! Me, Robin and Soraya are hopefully going to meet up with Red and her friend Chrissy at the park with the zipwire ^^
