Well....
What can i say..and where do i begin??
Firstly what an amazingly fabulous night:)))
My sis came over while i was getting ready with a big bunch of flowers for my achievements which started me crying..
The night of course started with a few hiccups ie: management being retards and also leaving my bad with headphones and cds in taxi which became a nightmare to get back..but finally did..
anyways back to the celebrations:))
Was given a lovely box of choccies from Angela and kosta and some letters of thank you from punters finished djing first set went outside for some air and there was a que all the way down the alleyway which was so impressive.
We opened the second level after much frustration and arguements which i could see the crowd were thankful for then after running round lots got bottom floor open with louis doing his bit and playing music ..so we had all 3 levels going...
I was overwhelmed with how many people came to me telling me stories of their first "abyss experiences and thanking me for all the years which made me feel very humble indeed..
I finished my djing at my final goth club with an uber goth track....joy division-love will tear us apart..then was onto relaxing and having catch up with friends that had made it down..am happy to say i caught up with most but i was starting to feel the build up of the end...
As Dan made the announcment hells and i got on the dance floor and started to let loose..was a shame lisa had gone home to miss what was to happen.
We were dancing away and all of a sudden hells and i were placed in the middle of this huge congo line people circling us as we danced away..then the final song approached dan made a gorgeous speech thanking us.. with that came the whole room applauding which i could start to feel the tears coming..i let them of course..then the final song and i grabbed helens hands which then we both started crying and still trying to find some beat...then having hugs from people coming from every direction just made me all the more emotional..the last song ended applause again as richard made an also lovely speech as both hells and i were incapable of doing so..more hugs more tears...Then was handed a poster that Rael wanted me to sign which made me feel like some rock star hehehe and we started packing up..no feelings towards the venue at all just at us feeling so shall i say it...loved and appreciated*gasp*
Headed down to breakfast for a much needed coffee and food then drove home..hells and i hugged again and yes you guessed it we cried again..
I am so proud of everything we achieved always having our heads firmly held high never in the 14 years have we ever ripped anyone off..never promised something and not come up with the goods..never put another down to gain in return all things very admiral i believe...
It was a most wonderful send off to a most amazing era making all those not so good nights and certain times all worthwhile...
As bill and ted would say " what a most excellent adventure"...
*sigh*
goodbye abyss..........
