where is this thread today?
I haven't done anything worth telling but I miss others peoples reviews! Weekend rundowns and weekend plans are probably my favourite threads!:D :D
 
what about lunch threads mikkak? :p

Friday: At work one of the directors was leaving so we had lots of champagne and then a tab behind the bar at living room where I think I tried almost every cocktail on their menu 8O passed out in my room at 10.30 with absolutely no recollection of how I got home 8O :lol:

Saturday: Felt rotten, but caught bus to london to go and have a picnic in my friends amazing garden in barons court, ended up staying in drinking and causing mischief all night

Sunday: Woke up late, went to Amora (londons "academy of sex and relationships") early afternoon with Rob, as a friend is the operations manager there, played with lots of rubber willies and found out where the g-spot is :lol:

Then onto gay bingo which was AMAZING - got incredibly drunk and watched trannies take their clothes off and cover themselves with blood with high speed bingo accompanying it all :lol:

Then onto t-bar

then finally got back to oxford around 2am 8O

Must stop spending all my sundays in london :lol: (but it's so fun!)
 
Had my sister down this weekend so have been playing the tourist, and really enjoyed it.
Fri - night in with a nice sri lankan curry.
Sat - Richmond deer park, shopping, drinkks on the River and watching the footie in the pub, Sat eve - Tapas in Ealing.
Sun - Spent the whole day on the south bank mooching about, grabbed the boat to London Bridge and sat drinking in the (part) sunshine, we even went on the London eye. :lol:
Sun eve - Pub then home for a big sleep. 8)
 
Yeah mine too!!! Im always waiting for it to appear makes Monday better!!! :)

My plans were:

Fri - did nothing except relax at home, watched a bit of telly earlyish night

Sat - dragged to do the 815 8O spin class by my so called friend, made me feel better for the day though, relaxed at home again, then out in the evening to a football presentation (basically a pi55 up in some dodgy hall) then onto Basildon to carry on the drinking and partying. Some very funny antics including someone doing the David Brent office dance spot on :lol:

Sun - dragged to go body pump at 10 again very 8O then relaxed again at home, felt a bit sleepy, had dinner with my parents then to bed.

Quietish weekend but its bank hol next week hurrah!

And where is the sunshine?!?!!?
 
we had a bbq party on saturday pm. we kinda watched the footie but lost interest after half time.

nice friends in the sunshine (yay- we posponed our bbq from last week as the weather was rubbish) really nice time. lots of lovely food and booze etc. everyone loved our garden, our food, our pond, our cat and us.

brilliant.
:) :) :) :) :) :) :)

sun: cleared up and went for lovely thai (meal, not woman)
 
Friday got some culture by going along to local Art School's Degree Show. Got hammered on free wine, ended up in the Union throwing shapes to some Pendulum (not a dnb fan at all). Birds were first rate, although unfortunately I look a bit like a vagrant at present.

Saturday, was going to go to Norman Jay at the rooms, but bank machine said no halfway down the road to the club, so I did a u-turn and sat and chilled with friends instead.

Sunday, messed about on my decks for a few hours then did some chillaxing at the beach.
 
Friday - first night out since we got back. Met up with the usual crew for drinks and fun in Soho. Great to see everyone although you can tell I haven't had a proper drink in a while, I was plastered by 8pm! Managed to find my way home in one piece :lol:

Saturday - woke up feeling wrong. Felt sorry for myself all day but got treated to lunch by my best friend which was nice :D Girly night out in the evening to Hed Kandi in Watford, which was suprisingly good! Had a good old boogie and I'm sure I cracked a rib doing some enerjetic dance moves, but had a really good night.

Sunday - chilled at home all day and cooked a roast.
 
Friday: bkt game at barça followed by drinks and food with my work friend
Saturday: Spent most of the day biking around the country visiting three catering services. At the evening we stayed in and we watched The Cosntant gardener (what a grear film!)
Sunday: a couple of hours down the beach and a very late and long lunch with friends at someone's terrace. At night watched barça scoring 6 goals

Completely forgot you were having a BBQ Russ. We were in Brighton anyway but wouldn't have been so rude as to not send apologies for absence bar my failing memory! Glad it was good8)

Me:

Fri - local restaurant and home early.

Sat - woke at 7.30am, saw the sun and hit the net to find a hotel in Brighton. None available but risked finding one down there. First place we tried had one double left!

Shopping, booze, football, more booze, skipping along the pier, not winning TCMB a cuddly toy, two pizzas and two crepes and a hangover in the morning

Sunday - hangover, shopping, log flume, lots of Minis due to the 2007 London to Brighton Mini Run, and lots of nice dogs. Everyone in Brighton has a dog! It's brilliant.
 
yep, i was pleasantly surprised by this. the theme/setting interests me anyway but it was a brilliant film. :D :D


It's brilliant, isn't it?
The argument it's interesting, the acting is great and the photography / realisation is 8O 8O 8O 8O

We just loved it :D
 
i nearly got stuck on a log flume in Santa Cruz, we were just away to go up the ramp when the thing got shut down. They were still picking people off it half an hour later :lol:

I want a dog......:cry:
 
sat - went to a boxing exhibition in liverpool. there were loads of ex boxers there ranging from better known ones like steve collins and john conteh down some older guys like bryan london and roy "pretty boy" shaw.

the main event was ernie shavers, of whom ali said he had the hardest punch of anyone he's ever faced. it was all a bit embarrassing really cos ernie is 63 and has a bad eye and his opponent was a short fat twat. hardly a punch was thrown.

there were 10 fights in all. the best ones were the novice fights, which were like bar brawls - great! all in all a very very different experience, but enjoyable one none the less.:D
 
i nearly got stuck on a log flume in Santa Cruz, we were just away to go up the ramp when the thing got shut down. They were still picking people off it half an hour later :lol:

TCMB loves log flumes. There is no chance of us ever being anywhere near one with going on it a number of times.

It took some time after yesterday's log flume action before it no longer looked like I had wet myself!:lol:

yeah, it's a top end film. i thought the acting was as good as anything i've seen recently.

have you seen the last king of scotland. you'll like that too if you liked this. again, african setting, similiar themes, and really really strong acting.
 
Fri - Went to pick up the keys from the builder to the new flat after work. Ended up going for a quick meal with mate in Shoreditch. Ate some crispy aromatic duck. Great day!

Sat - Met up with school mates in town for FA Cup lash. Took my mates to the worst curry house ever....which forever will be known as the day we went to watch the Cup final..which was rubbish but not as rubbish as the Curry thelak took us to eat afterwards...Strand Continental....AVOID!. Carried on getting hammered and ended up in Angel. Very hazy.

Sun - zero activity apart from sitting on my sofa and calling people about my house warming pty next weekend. Great day!
 
I want a dog......:cry:

Me too but can't look after one right now:cry:

One bloke we saw all over place yesterday was walking a seven week old grey staff-like puppy. Wherever we saw he was mobbed by people admiring the dog:lol:. Including us.:lol:
 
BEST WEEKEND EVER!
Ok, that's an exaggeration but what a blast! :D FA Cup final day in England is awesome. Nothing on TV and on the streets but talk of football. People packing the pubs from noon. Half of West London was walking around in blue shirts. and Wembley..... :D:D:D:D

Friday - Saw the missus off on the morning flight to London. Packed my stuff, went to the office, caught the evening flight and made it to the hotel only to find Irina already passed out from a long day. Popped over to the local for a pint of lager, then grabbed some kebab from the joint down the street. I love West London.

Saturday - Woke up at 5am due to time difference 8O Forced myself to get a couple hours more sleep. Got up, got ready, and went to a pub in Marylebone to meet up with our crew of 15 or so other Blues supporters. I am not exaggerating when I say that there was nothing but blue shirts everywhere along our way from Fulham. :D We took the train from Marylebone to Wembley (joining in with all the other Blues singing in full voice :D Will post video clip later) and then made our way into the stands. What a great atmosphere :D :D :D OK, the match was (in hindsight) not thrilling but we and everyone around us were loving it :D

After screaming ourselves hoarse upon victory (yay! :D :D) we went for a stroll down Wembley Way and, in the process, lost our gang and so three of us made our way to a pub in Wembley Center for a round of drinks while the crowds subsided. Then we went to join up with the others at a pub a few blocks northeast of Oxford Circus where we proceeded to drink ourselves silly (damn that tequila!) and sing songs until they finally kicked us out.

At this point, I was supposed to head over to Ministry of Sound for Derrick May, but I was so drunk that the plan kind of faded away (plus Irina had already gone home, tired from jetlag :(). One of our gang, who lives nearby, made a deal with the local Italian restaurant to let us sit on their terrace but we all had to eat the same dish (spaghettil with prawns in a tomato-chili sauce... yummy!!), washed down with many bottles of wine. We couldn't stop singing, and ended up having three neighbors call the restaurant to complain :lol: Finally around 2 or 3, barely standing, I went to catch a taxi back to West London with one of my mates.

Sunday - Irina & I went for a lovely stroll down Brick Lane. Abandoned plans for a Sunday roast due to lack of seating at the place we wanted to check out (nevertheless, thanks for the recommendation Babs! We'd never been to that part of town and it was quite fun :D) but settled in for some curry at a Bangladeshi restaurant.

Afterwards, we went for a long, nice stroll to Tower Bridge and all along the Thames and then back across to Embankment. What a wonderful atmosphere along that stretch on a Sunday afternoon. It was humbling to see the smiling faces of tourists who were excited just to BE in London. Then back to Fulham for a couple drinks and a snack and off to the airport.

*sighs*
