Weekend Rundowns

I guess I'll start off this week's re-caps...

Friday - We started drinking in the office at about 5pm. One bottle of wine later, I went home to change before meeting some colleagues at a bohemian bar called Gogol. Turns out they were celebrating Bob Marley's birthday with some quite decent live reggae bands. One sufficiently pissed, it was over to club Fabrique where I ran into some of the usual suspects in similar condition and the resident DJs in halfway decent form.

Saturday - Got my computer from the shop. Went to the sports bar to watch Chelsea get rightfully spanked. Home to change before the missus and I were off to the re-opening of club First, once one of the most chic clubs in town at a prime location across the river from the Kremlin. They moved out to the Art Center on Plyuschikha, a distant venue that's nevertheless dear to our hearts as the site of some of the best one-off parties in town over the past few years (events with Danny Rampling, X-Press2, Pete Tong and Deep Dish come to mind). First did a beautiful job remodelling the old venue but removed any soul it had in the process. :spank: By 1am, it was packed with blondes in heals. By 1:30, an even number of guys in suit jackets appeared. Time to go.:?

Onwards to Club XIII for John Digweed:D :D . He played an absolute blinder of a set. Totally rocked the place, and the crowd was up for it as well. Good night.

Sunday - Bought a Tv tuner for my computer. Made some great lemon chicken and shrimp & roast pork fried rice.
 
Fri - Tom had got property details for some houses so we went out for dinner looked at them, imagined ourselves living in them with our little dog :lol: then drove the streets of Ealing looking where they were (probably looking like we were casing up the joints :lol: ) and I fell completely in love with one of them and want to move into it NOW (impatient, moi :? :lol: )

Sat - Tom was at work so I went and had another look at the house I've fallen in love with :lol: then met him in Richmond after work and we went over to his brothers and his wifes, played with their little girl, drank lots of wine and had a Chinese and home for the very respectable time of 1.30.

Sun - woke up in our own bed after a full nights sleep (stranger things have happened on a Sunday 8O :lol: ) then headed into town for big spring/summer shopping spree, bought lots of summer clothes so I'm all ready to embrace summer and then went for a Valentines dinner @ J Sheekeys. How much do I love this restaurant, even as a civillian you're made to feel like a A list celeb :D Had a gorgeous meal and did lots of celeb spotting.

All in all a lovely 'grown-up' wkend.
 
Thursday: Went out to my friend's night here in Oxford called Eclectric. Fairly average DJ on until 12.30, playing too light fluffy stuff for my liking. The lovely simon came on after and played filthy electro and minimal type stuff. Managed to drag myself away at 1.30 as I had work the next day. It's always lovely to see a whole bunch of posh oxford students dancing to electro and minimal, music you NEVER find in oxford as cheese & RnB reign supreme.

Friday: Discovered that after I left eclectric there was a rucus with one of the promoters and a bouncer, turned out the promoter punched the bouncer and everything went a bit bonkers. Thus all my friends there who were supposed to come to Ashley Beedle decided they were too hungover and needed to do some work for finals. Yawn! Luckily a couple of friends decided to come anyway, and we had a fantastic night, ashley was brilliant, was quite empty but a good crowd as usual.

Saturday: My ears rang all day, I think the sound system was too loud. They're still ringing now a little bit, and it's monday ffs.
Finally had a shower at about 3pm after watching rubbish on telly for a couple of hrs, then headed out to the pub to meet a friend I'd not seen for about a year despite us living in the same city. After that went to a birthday party where the birthday girl proceeded to get so drunk she vomited but still came out to the lovely cheese and sweat fest that is Clementines. Saw loads of old friends who were up from london for the weekend. Really didn't enjoy myself, realised how much I hate cheese, the smell of vomit and completely rammed clubs where it takes about 15 mins to walk about 10 feet.

So left at about 1 and went to the local gay night, which was horrific but hilarious at the same time. Had the typical disgusting gays wearing far too tight clothes, a guy wearing a PVC vest, boots and those bumless trouser things which made me laugh, it's a cheesy night in Oxford, not a hardcore london night! And then mixed in with this lot were a tonne of people dressed up as cartoon characters because some college had decided to have a bop there (bops are themed parties put on every couple of weeks or so by tghe oxford colleges, sometimes in their JCRs and sometimes at clubs, where everyone gets wasted and dresses up).

Sunday: Hungover, went to the office at 2, left at 9. Got home and found out my promoter friend was close to being taken to court by the bouncer 8O
 
Friday, meet my friend for lunch, then we saw some other friends, we went for a bit of clothes-books shoppings, we ordered chiness for dinner and I got back home around 1am
Saturday, I've met Montse and MyMind (spanish posters) and we had a great paella at Kaikú, one of my very fav restaurants, and after lunch we spent a couple of hours in the beach just talking, smoking and playing with Montse's dog. On the evening when to a friend's party at home, I drank too mucht and about 3 I got home
Yesterday family do followed by Basket at Barça
 
Friday-Sunday - took Anna to Brighton for early Valentines treat. Champagne, nice food, shopping sea-air and lots of playing with other people's dogs:lol: .

Best weekend for ages.8)
 
Friday: Went to Comedy Club for brothers birthday at The Roundhouse club. Excellent night!!! 4/5 acts - all very very funny :lol: . All was going well until later into the evening some girl from a nearby table came over and started being really flirty while my g/f was up dancing. After a while her boyfriend came over and asked if he could have a word, so i went over to the bar and he told me that his missus fancied my missus and would i tell her. Obviously i didn't until someone saw her trying to push her number into my pocket. So my missus obviously assumed something was going on and wasn't too happy :? I asked her boyfriend what the hell was going on and he then blatently admitted to wanting to see me AND my missus do his woman!! We'd been talking to them earlier and you wouldn't have thought butter would melt. Nice, quite sophisticated middle class couple! Kinky!

Saturday: Woke up for a catastrophic hangover and had to go into work. Oh dear! Still, managed to survive that and returned home to veg all day on the sofa. Nothing much else.

Sunday: Got up late, went to Toys-Are-Us to buy some gifts for niece (what fun!), then gym, food shopping, tried (and failed) to fix my laptop then went out to see friends.

A weekend full of ups and downs basically.

:)

Are you still being a big puff again :lol: ;)
 
Weekend was spent much the same as the last week, either working or playing Florence Nightingale to Mr PL who has literally not been out of bed since last Tue with this horrid stomach flu.... he was so ill, he gave his ticket away on Sat for the match and didnt even bother driving down to Liverpool - a first!! He can normally make a miraculous recovery for football..:)

So basically, spent the weekend administering over the counter drugs and hot tea, and watching DVD's

Green Street - pants ...:?
Wedding Crashers - brilliant ...:lol: :lol: :lol:
Amityville Horror - far scarier than the original.... 8O

Hopefully, he has fully recovered and I dont catch this lurgy type illness - I dont want to be ill for next weekend's trip to London....:? :?
 
Fri - Soho Flat party which went off in usual stylee. Crack on at mine that lasted until about 2pm I think but I'd gone to bed by then!

"Yeah Buckers, come to the Soho Flat Party, guaranteed not a big one. All over 5 am honest"

Phew!:lol:
 
*gurgley noises*

On second thoughts, it's far too early to think about typing anything - forget you saw this post please. :?
 
Friday: Joey picked me up on his way back from Manchester and we went for a lovely balti at our new favourite indian restaurant.

Saturday: Had a lie in for a change which is strange for me, met Joey in B'ham after he'd been set free to select a few new tunage for this weekend. Had a coffee and lunch and then headed back home. Went over to his brothers on the evening for dinner and met their new nanny :?.

Sunday: Had another lie in - dont know whats going on :? and done some food shopping and went over to my moms earlier than usual which left the rest of the day to relax watching dvd's.

Lovely weekend really :)

The flat party had closed by 5am :) But then all back to mine til 2pmish where apparently my wayward GF was challenging people to press-up competitions :lol: I went to bed at 8am, sensible (old) guy that I am :)
 
Fri - Met Dom after work and made our way to selfridges where I was told to choose any pair of sunglasses as a valantines gift. 8) We then sat in the moet bar and got merry on champagne.

Sat - Travelled to L'pool to see my Daddy, got very drunk with my Mum sat night whilst my pregnant sister looked on. :lol:

Sun- Got dragged to the biggest mothercare you could imagine to buy a pram with my sister, this baby stuff is very boring. :roll: Still at least I can have some fun once it's born with the T_______ G________ :twisted:
Made a run for it into town to buy clothes and suntan lotion for my hols. 4 weeks to go. :D 8)
Went to my mum and Dads and ate the biggest roast ever and drank too much wine....again.
