Clubbing!
The weekend was a good 'un. Yes indeedy!
Thursday evening was lovely! Michelle (cyberspikes), Emma (psilobabe) and Heather came over in the early evening for a Sirenz meeting which was lovely.
Andy turned up and us girls and Ian (uvjunkie) all got ready to head out to Bad By Design at Timbuk2. It is a really lovely and intimate psy-trance night that is put on about once a month, and it had a lovely atmosphere. It was brilliant again. It was lovely to be out dancing with some of the Sirenz girlies, Heather especially as it has been way too long since we saw her out socially :D
A fun and giggly time was had by all and we will definitely be doing it again next time! I think we should ALWAYS have Sirenz meetings on the evening of Bad By Design as an excuse to get us girlies and guys out dancing mid-week coz its just so much fun :D

Friday afternoon Ian (uvjunkie) and I headed to a little village near Gloucester called Bourton-on-the-Water for a bit of shopping and then some food. It was a lovely place, so pretty. We will have to go back again sometime :)
We then headed to Crackers for Toadstool, arriving a little before 8pm and helped Corky (corky4), Nick and the Toadstool crew set up before the event. All too soon it was 10pm and the night had begun. Toadstool was such fun, Ian and I had a wonderful night. It was lovely to catch up with quite a few friends who we have not seen for far too long. Had a wonderful time dancing in my boots, to try and break them in. They are beautiful purple New Rocks that I have had for about 2 years but only worn once (I hate wearing new shoes/boots in as I think I have funny shaped feet and I always end up with massive blisters) - and I thought now would be a perfect time to wear them in and practice dancing in them ready for next year's festival season! They so totally didn't go with my outfit, but I really didn't care - I was enjoying stompin' in them until my feet started burning from the pain!!
We didn't take any photos, but I found a couple on the Don't Stay In Website which I thought I'd post.

Saturday we were busy sorting out the house, and in the late afternoon we headed over the the Adam & Eve pub to check out the food menu in preparation for Ian's parents visiting Sunday. They were having a street party outside the pub for charity, and there was a wonderful barbeque so we indulged in a couple of home-made organic burgers - the most delicious burgers I've ever tasted, that is for sure :)
We then headed home and got ready to meet Lee (partiallyabused), Lene (norse_valkyrie) and Andy (acsquiggle) for Lee's birthday meal. We headed to the Raj and as usual the food was divine and the company even more so :D
Sunday Ian's parents and grandmother were coming to visit for the day, and to have a look around the new place. At lunchtime we headed to the Adam & Eve pub for a Sunday roast and then headed over to Paul's in the afternoon before heading back home.
Once the parents had gone, and Ian had helped Andy out with a freezer, Paul and Andy headed over for dinner.
