Weekend Rundowns!

[mikkak]

Thanks Barbie for the link D , I looked this site before but I wanted to have a personal opinion of someone that had experienced it by themselves because it's looks really nice but wanted to know if it is just a touristic thing to do or what!!!, thanks and get ready for my 1000 questions when the date gets nearer and nearer

I'd say it's a 'nice to do' but it wouldn't be top of my list of things to do as a tourist, it's expensive for what it is and The Ritz can be very snooty.

I have to clarify. We drank tea. In the morning. I did not actually go to the afternoon "tea", though the menu looked nice.

The Ritz is a nice place but I don't think it's so super special that you've got to go there.

By the way, Mikkak, one of the pairs of shoes I bought in London last week were Campers. I found out that they are all designed on Mallorca

Thanks for the advice!!!!! CAMPERS good choice, yess they are designed here in Mallorca and we are very proud of it. In Mallorca we have a lot of people who design shoes and we have quite a lot of people working in this. Campers are very very nice so you have a nice and quality taste I must say, although I must say that is not my favourite Majorcan designers. My favourite are Farrutx and Yanko.

Scoobie, I will have a look at Claridges thanks

Camper were great years ago, now a days, they seem to do the same shoes every year just changing a bit their desing.

Mikkak, is Muxart a brand from Mallorca or am I wrong?

 

[mikkak]

Silv, I think he is not from Mallorca I think he is catalan. This is what I think I am not quite sure of it. I remember people being very crazy about Camper, if you didn't had a Camper you wasn't nobody. I think Camper are nice but for me are very sport or casual, I like shoes to be very femenine and ofcourse "uncomfortable" but nice !!!!and I like high-heeled shoes even so to go to work I use other not so heeled. Camper tend to be flat.

Friday Plans changed at the last moment for me so I just decided to take it easy and mingle with the caffeine kids at the local coffee shop.

Saturday Got up early, spent some time being cheeky with Barbie and then headed to the gym. Plans changed again at the last minute, and so I headed off to the shooting range, and then to the grocery store to try my first taste of Rose. Night was spent in La Jolla where my buddy came down from Detroit Bar in Costa Mesa to DJ. What a night! I was soaked after really cutting loose, to great Deep House choons, after a long time.

Sunday Treated myself to a great Portabella Omlette with sun-dried tomatoes and goat kaise in the morning. After gym, I headed off to Tower Records to invest in a couple of records, House of Om - DJ Sneak and The Kings of House - MAW.

Fri - Gig........tumbleweed.......nuff said! Bothered, the whole town is the same, everywhere is dead on Friday nights. After getting home after midnite worked on Abelton til 6am then off to bed.

Sat - Gig, quiet...ish first half, very busy second half. Dropped hours and fee for November on bosses toes. She was Couldn't believe she hasn't given it any thought. She doesn't even know what the doorstaff are gonna cost yet! She thought she was gonna shift my 4 1/2 hours back to finish at 2am and give me the same money. WRONG! Nightclub hours, nightclub rates. Long discussion followed educating her as I used to run a nightclub myself. Left it with her til next week for a yay or nay. Meanwhile, backup plan is in place for an alternative nightclub residency. Made me late to get to Digital for Hernan Cattaneo but still got in on the guestlist. Great night.

Sun - Local pub with mates for Newcastle/Sunderland derby game. Couldn't drink as I was working on night and driving. Gig was the busiest yet. Was on top form too, made for a great night. Choc full dancefloor when I had to stop at 00.30am. Think I've just about secured this Sunday gig from the regular DJ who's done only 2 Sundays since August. Back home working on Abelton til 6am again and slept til 2pm Mon afternoon.

What do you mean eat with it I just drink it

If I'm going out for dinner I normally buy white altho some rose's go well with fish.

Rose goes with fish and meat altho IMO if you like white or red I don't think you need to try rose on a meal.
Does it make any sense?

Sorry, I forgot that I was talking to a true Rose lurver.

By the way, here is a funny story. When I was looking for Rose at the grocery store I asked this one older lady if she had some input on how Rose was like. She asked me if that was a brand of wine, and I said that it was a type of wine. Then she pronounced it in the correct way (Ro-say). I was pronouncing it Rose (like the flower). I felt like a total tw*t. I felt like one of those guys who you see at clubs wearing a Rolex just because they have a few $$$, and a Rolex is the only thing they can associate with when it comes to watches, as they have no clue as to what a nice watch would be if it were to hit them in the face.

My fault, I should put the little symbol over the e to avoid misunderstanding

 

[Ferd]

Why didnt you use my guest list - I said it was up for grabs - you could have just ignored the commoners and walked to the front!!

Sorry, I didnt make it clear, I WAS in the guestlist queue, the normal queue was even longer...

November is a definite no but keep me posted as to December

I'll definitely be on the look out. Never thought id see Barbie at The Cross.

I'm secretly hoping it's a crap line-up for December @ Type Knowing my luck it will be Carter and I'll have no excuse to get out of it

Camper were great years ago, now a days, they seem to do the same shoes every year just changing a bit their desing.

I've actually been eyeing the pair of shoes i bought for a while (saw them in Istanbul, Barcelona, Ibiza) but for some reason kept deciding against buying them though now I'm happy I did as they're quite comfortable for clubbing.

Friday: Stayed in with a take away and had an early night.

Just as well we did because we were a little stressed out because the house sale was supposted to of gone through and they estate agents had funked up and not told the other solicitor the reduced price so we were thinking that the papers were going to have be drawn up again , stress, stress, stress.

Saturday: Up early and done a few errands, got some wine and vodka in for our guests later on. The guys arrived @ 6pm, followed by my brother and later on Sarah.

Had a bottle of wine in the car with Sarah drinking out of my plastic day glo yellow wine glasses from Selfridges 8) . as ya do.

Chewie left at midnight before his car turned into a pumpkin and we left at 1am when it closed.

When we left the fresh air must have got to me because we had to stop 6 times on the way back so I could be sick, Gavin fell down an embankment and Sarah fell over in the car park twice and bashed her head against the bannister.

Sarah doesn’t remember falling over, remember telling us to leave her jacket in the bar, remember eating chips at the kitchen table, remember kissing someone that she didnt really want to, remember sitting at the bar table with her flys undone

Good night in all.

Sunday: Woke up and was sick a bit more and went back to sleep, had to wake Sarah up from her coma at 2.20pm and we went to Joeys brothers where i sat and tried not to be sick for a couple of hours.

Early night to bed both sulking.

 

[N8]

@ you and Sarah

 

[mambobirdette]

@ you and Sarah

It was funny because it started off me looking after Sarah who was wobbling all over the place by about 11pm and then her having to look after me in the car on the way back

I was put to bed when we got in and she stayed up feeding the cat chips and falling alseep sitting up at the table while eating them, Joey said it was quite amusing

I AM NEVER DRINKING AGAIN THOUGH

 

[N8]

Did your cat like eating chips being fed to it by a drunken mess of a woman?

Where did you go anyway? I was in B'ham this weekend for the Kaisers....who were brilliant! 8)

PMSL at them singing I predict a Riot after what went on in B'ham on Sat night though
