So carrying on from Friday’s Extreme Monopoly I made my way back to London on Saturday evening. Why? Well Uni Jon had a house warming party running and my other uni mate Gaz was gonna be there to. Like I mentioned in a previous post I had to make the effort. I had to be there as I haven’t seen these guys for ages. So I bloody well did it!
I had a good night and as ever my plain lazy hat was a great ice breaker, especially the ladies. Cat, Emma, Sandy and I’m sure there was someone else I was chatting to or having a go….with the hat. I on the other hand was very good and …THAT’s it Alison, but she didn’t wear the hat actually. Alison was quite a colourful character but didn’t dance much sadly. Anyway where was I, ah yes, Cat and Emma. These ladies were very nice people and were great fun to muck around with. Though I must confess I did lie and say that Gareth was my brother. Not a bad lie I guess but I did forget to tell them it wasn’t true.
Anyway in summary it was a pretty cool night though I did ring up my family in Brighton when I got a little homesick. Bless them that’s twice now I’ve been away and they’ve talked me through my home sickness. Why is Brighton so god damn addictive? It could be that I’m having the time of my life with friends! Which reminds me of two things. The first being Raymondo will hopefully being having a very very very small gathering round his this weekend. I so hope so. I love going round Mum and Dad’s place. They look after you, make you feel good and the music dad plays is awesome. Saying that this gathering will be in aid of a battle between Vinyl and CD, Jon and Mark aka Dad.
Jon has been itching for ages to play and I know he’s been playing and buying a lot of vinly lately so I really can’t wait to see these two go head to head. I will hopefully be taking my iMac round as well to record the sessions, which will be cool. That will add a little bit of pressure I think. The second thing is that I have bought some new decks…CD decks to be precise so I won’t be going out for at least two years or more.
Anyway here’s to next Friday, hopefully it will go through, as it’s early stages yet so no getting comfy with the idea. Until then I’ll be praying for a swift delivery of my decks.
