Another crazy weekend
It'd be nice if things happened gradually spread out over the week instead of all at once.
Friday: Went to South Hill Park in Bracknell to see Six Nation State, My Luminaries, Upcdowncleftcrightcabcandstart and The Trouble With Me. It was a really fun evening. Josaka put the gig on and they had a bus take us from Reading station to Bracknell and then back again. Which was great. A straw poll of people on the bus said that most of us wouldn't have gone if it wasn't for the bus. It's a real shame, The Wilde Theatre at South Hill Park is a great location, but it's a real pain to get to. I have some great pictures, which I might be able to get off my phone if it stops pissing about.
Saturday: Saw a load of houses, put an offer in on one and had it accepted! Woo!
Sunday: Started off the day with a trip to hobbycraft to buy materials for some signs. Joey Ultra have a (top secret) photo shoot before our rehearsal tonight so we'll see how that goes.
After spending the day covering our floor with paint and signs I went to the Oakford for a couple of drinks, and so that my girlfriend could return Jon Six Nation State's hat. Then it was on to the Rising Sun Arts Centre to be part of Pete and the Pirates new video. I would say it was cool but a combination of a hot spring day, some big lights and 50 people dancing like crazy meant it was absolutely boiling. Good to be part of it though. We stayed for about three and a half hours until 8:30 before the weekend caught up with us and we retired home for chinese food and sleep.
Plans for the week include photo shoot/rehearsal tonight, finding solicitors, talking about mortgages and surveys, Chelsea vs Liverpool tomorrow (and then hopefully the Pirates at the Face bar), a friend's birthday on Friday and then off to Dublin for bank holiday! Woo!
I'll put pictures up later if I can.
