Only thing to do is perhaps do a pregnancy test in about 7-14 days unless your periods come again.......

Pray to whomever and count down 7-14 days so that you can take a pregnancy test.
Im no doctor but as someone with irregular periods, definitely check that out - in unfortunate cases it can mean infertility (not a definite, many reasons for delayed/missed periods)

Why not get the morning after pill just incase. I think you can take it up to 72h afterwards. You can buy it in a chemist.

So you'd rather take your chances than get a bus to the nearest pharmacy?
