| I was in London last weekend, saying goodbye to my dear friends Todd and Emma who are now in Buenos Aires on the first leg of their world tour.
Friday was their leaving do, and it was a fun night. You can judge for yourself if you take a peek at the gallery.
It was great to finally put faces to a few of the names I've heard so much about. And to catch up with the many friends I've made via Todd over the last 6 months.
And I was really pleased that my new-best-friends Sasha and Dee came out to play. They are both adorable and such fun to be with, and quite oblivious to how lovely they both are.
It was a rather bitter sweet affair, having such a fabulous time and not knowing when we'll be able to do it again. With my typical perfect timing, as I'm on the verge of moving to London, two of my closest friends leave!
Predictably, the night turned into a major party. And I finally got to go to Egg, which was a lovely venue although a rather quiet night. And then onto another club near Fabric whose name escapes me.
They where both straight clubs, especially the second as Egg on a Friday is pretty "poly sexual". And for the first time in a very long time, I had a few stares and comments. Nothing particularly rude, apart from the dick heads I mentioned yesterday, more bemusement I think. That's one of the advantages of the clubbing scene, most people are so loved up that they really don't care.
Two silly things happened on Friday. One I'm sure I'll never live down, and the other I'm quite chuffed about.
Now I'll never claim to be the life and soul of the party, but even by my standards this was seriously bad! I was in Egg chatting to a girl who happened to be sat beside me when she simply passed out. I kid you not, one minute captivated by my wit, the next fast asleep! lol
I was still in shell shock about this, when a woman walked upto me and said "excuse me love but can I borrow..."
With the music blasting out, I couldn't understand the last bit of the sentence. So I said "sorry" and she repeated herself, but it still didn't make any sense to me at all and I must have looked really blank. Luckily a woman sat nearby jumped in, said something and it all seemed to sort itself out.
As the first woman walked away, the woman sat near me gave me a big smile and said "Well that was quite a complement!".
"What do you mean?"
"Lol. Well, she wanted to borrow a Tampon!"
A complement indeed! Somehow, having the ability to put people to sleep in 20 seconds didn't seem so bad after that! :o)
