(no subject)
Got an e-mail at work that on reading actually made me feel sick. Turns out it is an old hoax, but I think it is one of the worst things I can imagine.

Anyway...
Had a great weekend away from Nottingham in Northampton.
First visited the house of ladyfayne and dinksdad who would generously be putting me up for the night (Thanks guys!). Here I met up with mouthymetaller and, after a cup of much needed coffee we headed over the the house of Conehead for general LRP wah. Ideas were discussed and directions considered and the little time we had ran out all too quickly.
Back to the house for food - cooked by dinksdad - which was amazing.
Then off to the George Inn for the joint celebrations of thirstypixel, madcatlady and their respective partners. It was very nice, with Ed, Caro and Garry all radiating happiness - which made for a great atmosphere.
This was where the plan deviated from the original. It was my intention to go back with ladyfayne and dinksdad to their house for sleep and a early return to Nottingham to get some work done. However... Fuelled by the two pints in the house and the four at the George I was convinced that going to the Soundhaus was a good idea and within minutes I had alternative sleeping arrangements at the house of Dunbar and a lift from bubba1974 planned.
Soundhaus was good, although the moment I walked through the door any energy I had left my body. I was introduced to the 'pirate' drinking game - which was confusing. After a short walk to the pizza shop (which Humpo was trying to declare war on towards the end) and a short taxi ride we arrived at the Dumbar household and, after yet another beer, got some sleep.
It was only after I woke up that I realised my car was still parked at Chaz and Adam's house and that I didn't know where that was. Luckily they sent me the address via the internet so I could log in and find my car. So, after a nice day of lazing around, Varna dropped me back at my car and I came back to sweet home Shottingham.
All in all - awesome weekend.
Thanks again to ladyfayne and dinksdad for their hospitality and to mouthymetaller for keeping me entertained and putting up with me when my wah became less coherent.
Now... Tollers Gambit on Friday...
