Well, not everyone had a bank holiday
But a fun weekend was had anyway
Friday - Got home and made a killer shrimp stir fry with a side dish of take out sushi. Got drawn into watching the Man U - Sunderland game
lol
before heading out to the Expocenter which they'd turned into one big crappy rave party. MXtronic and some French DJ whose name escapes me nearly ruined the evening but after their sets Dmitri from Paris came on and rocked
I was surprised because last time I saw him he was crap but I was well impressed this time. At some point just before dawn an automatic "you're far too wasted" reflex sent me home as opposed to the after hours club where I'd considered going.
Saturday - Got up, went straight to the sports bar for the football, then back home while the missus changed in preparation for her birthday celebration. Met up with a bunch of her friends at a DJ bar/cafe called the Discreet Charm of the Bourgoisie. Good time had by all... many drinks later, off to the club Dyagilev Project for Syke 'n' Sugarstarr who I could swear were playing the same songs we'd heard in Bourgoisie
Took many amusing photos (which I'm not posting) and we ended up at the Real McCoy for a bit of morning carry-on.
Sunday - Got up mid-afternoon and took the missus out to birthday/Easter dinner at Turandot. It has to be one of the most beautiful restaurants I have ever seen anywhere
This place was so expensive to build that it has already been written up in the UK's Financial Times. It's done up like a palace inside with waitors dressed in Louis XIV era costumes (according to the fashion-knowledgeable missus). Service was great. Chinese cuisine (they're building two more halls for French and Russian). Nice relaxed evening in beautiful surroundings.
Monday - Work, but snuck out early to catch the football at the sports bar.
