I Know, I Know
I'm overdue another post. I'm off to Swansea today and back on Tuesday (missing line dancing on Monday - quelle horreuer!). I'll try and blog from bonny Wales but if not I'll update y'all when I get back. Promise. That's all. J x Oh, P.S. I start in my new job on 02/02/09.

Catch Up
Its been a while I know but now I'm back. I'm not suffering from liver failure (but thank you for your concern) although I do seem to have a touch of the flu for which I blame the usual culprit (Ms DD - but see later). So where were we when last I posted? Ah yes, I was off to London to celebrate (?) being 47. And I'd just been promoted. Well a lot has happened since then so I hope you're sitting comfortably...
Well, London was really good (apart from Joseph - except Lee looks really good in a loin cloth when viewed over a long period of time through opera glasses). We also saw Spamalot which is just fantastic. Sanjeev Bakshar (I think that's how you spell his name, anyway that bloke off the Kumars) rather ironically playing King Arthur. He's not much of a song and dance bloke but he worked the comedy well and allowed for some interesting racial jokes. Apart from the musicals there was shopping - CDs, a coat, a Balanciaga shirt that cost as much as the coat but looks beautiful on, and many many vodka martinis. So yes, there was drinking as well - at One Aldwych, a fabulous hotel on, you guessed it, Aldwych and also at St Martins Lane with all the local drug dealers and their whores (but only the top class ones because its a top class place). The hotel was stunning with very pretty lobby boys and was located on Seething Lane in the City (how fabulous an address is that?). It was next to St Olaves church. So bells on Sunday. On Sunday we went to the Regent Street festival, had coffee and bought vodka at Fortnum & Masons, mixed it with the Calvin Klein guys at the new Calvin Klein store and then went to Browns Hotel (having been turned away from the Ritz because Armani jeans aren't good enough apparently) but it was a lucky break because Browns is fabulous so we had one or three VMs there with the lovely waiter (who may or may not have had a holiday romance with DD who definitely did have a holiday romance with a drunken Irishman in the street).
After the weekend away I went line dancing with Patrick on the Monday - I know, I know - but it was fun. Honestly. I'm going again next week and everything. Then it was Help Line on Tuesday with Smyth and then celebrations on Friday for the promotions - mine, Sara's and Stuart's at which I got very very drunk. I also by this time had flu on account of Ms DD wearing me out in London and literally forcing vodka down my neck. This weekend has therefore been a little quiet. But that's a good thing. Busy week ahead (us Grade 6s, never a quiet moment you know). That's all and sorry for any delays. J x
