Observations
The club really wasn't as fun as it should've been. It got popular, which means it got crowded, which means it got louder and louder as the music tried to outstrip the voices, and the voices rose to be heard over the music, and the music was cranked ever higher to get over the voices. Not a good combination. Two days later, my ears are still ringing slightly.
Other than that, it did have its compensations. Some of the bands that played were pretty good, and the fire-dancing was very very sexy. That's the kind of thing I'd like to be doing eventually.
(also there were strippers, and while predictably the actual act of stripping didn't do anything in particular for me, these people were really into their performances, and that does. It was interesting.)

Elsewise, there was London, which is always nice. There was prettiness, which is also always nice. I was told that I looked beautiful, which made me blush intensely. And there were blacklights, which made the stripes on my arms and legs flare delightfully, which is so so so pretty. I am a total sucker for markings in general, and bioluminscence in particular, even when the bio- part is false. More glowy is more good.
Anyhow, I looked like this.

Now, velos is here. I've been comparing the UK version of Spaced to the US version for him. He agrees that it... loses a lot in the conversion (I'd say 'translation', but little to no effort has been made to translate the humour - it just feels disjointed and trying-too-hard). Anyone who has seen Spaced, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDsdBB1LUto is a good example for comparison. Cringe.
Also there is cuddling. Also there is bacon. Bacon makes for the happy.
