Well, this morning’s photo is a bit prettier due to
the snowy gale I had to walk in to this morning. It came as a real
surprise yesterday as it just belted it down all day, so I thought the
snow wouldn’t settle – but as you can see, a fair amount has!
Well,
what a busy weekend! Friday ended up being EXCELLENT. After work, I got
time to go home and have a disco nap before having a bath and getting
ready for Birthday Drinks number 1 (my friend Mo). This was with some of
my colleagues at Wetherspoons. I only stayed for about an hour, but it
was nice to see them and catch up outside of work. After that it was
Birthday number 2 (my friend Cate). After a disappointing start (Cate
had booked for 11 – only 4 turned up), we had a beautiful meal and
drinks in the Boardroom of “Lost and Found” on Bennetts Hill. We then
had time for another quick drink in their ultra-exclusive cocktail bar
“Shhh!,” before I had to dash off to Eddies.
A
new guy to Dystopia, Jay, did the first awkward set. He hadn’t deejayed
in 10 years – but did a great job! Definitely a goth theme, but he
played some great tracks that I normally wouldn’t hear out – so got
people on the dancefloor before 11pm (which is practically unheard of!).
I started my set at 10:45. I started off with some Tiga and something a
bit more alternative and dancey, before getting harder and louder
throughout the set. I was super pleased as had people dancing the whole
way through and even had people cursing me because they needed a break –
but I kept it all pacey so didn’t want to leave the floor!
I have included the full tracklist below for you to have a listen/look/comment:-
Note: Track 1 - Tiga - Who's That?
Track 2 - Ashbury Heights - Smile (Remixed by Marsheaux)
Saturday
was nice, but I was knackered. After a late and busy night on Friday,
we had a bit of a lay in (about 10 I think) before heading to Market to
do the normal weekly shop. Had a little mooch around the town as well
and grabbed a well-deserved coffee and cake at one of my favourite
coffee shops ever – the 6/8 Kafe (http://www.sixeightkafe.co.
Sunday
was another nice day – was still tired but got my behind out of bed to
get to the cinema and watch Wreck it ralph. It surpassed my massive
expectations. Was truly fantastic. A bit of an anti-climax after that as
had to do the rest of the weekly shop and cleaning. Enjoyed watching a
bit of anime and vegging on the sofa though.
This
morning has been all about hotels. Booking hotels for music
festivals(fun!) and training courses (work – so HAVE to be nice). Have
been on all sorts of comparisons sites to find the lowdown and get the
best prices. Have found a good deal for Resistanz festival, so I’m
pleased about that. It makes it more “real” once tickets and hotels are
confirmed. We always keep a close eye on hotels, unfortunately, so do the hotels. Once they notice the trend im bookings, it's never cheap... hence today's quote... “Necessity never made a good bargain."
