Sweat carves a screenplay of discipline...and devotion

oh dear - [livejournal.com profile] wsogmm and I have started plotting about our proposed trip to Japan next spring already Will we be able to keep up the momentum for 13-14 months? :) I'm dreaming of infinite afternoon tea at the park hyatt again...

Matt and Kate should be married by now (either that or one of them will have been murdered by the other...), how odd! it's their wedding do on saturday evening and they specified 'formal/suits' on the invite. I don't do posh formal (although I like men in suits so I'm looking forward to that aspect :D ) so have decided to steal 'formal' from another culture and go in a sari. This has rendered my already hectic weekend schedule EVEN MORE HECTIC by the addition of a 10am trip to Bombay Stores in Bradford with Julie to go and purchase said sari (I'm thinking red and black although I may venture into red/silver red/gold wedding sari territory :D ) Bombay Stores is a fabulous place so I'm looking forward to the trip anyway. it does mean my weekend is shaping up to be thus:

friday - [livejournal.com profile] myz_lilith's birthday drinks at the lounge then onto Friday Flock live in time for Trauma Pet and Deathboy and then probably on to Frankie goes to Subculture
Saturday - Bombay Stores, [livejournal.com profile] myz_lilith's birthday boardgaming down t'club at 2:00pm, home at 4:00 to get ready (could be amusing - it's a long time since I've worn a sari and last time I was helped by experienced people!), down to the Armouries for Matt and Kates wedding do (5:30 for 6pm...) and possibly on to Substance later if things die down early at the wedding (in a sari! woo!)
Sunday - lig, lig and sheep - unless I have to let the cleaners in.

blee. tonight I have to brave the woodsley road contraception clinic - and there's no way for me to get there nice and early and therefore miss the crowds. always a fun way to spend a few hours :( at least I have my DS.
*charges her DS*

Thankyou!

Well with the exception of Friday night & Satdy morning, you've been a major help with my diary. I've been wondering when everything was happening! Got a serious problem tho with my outfit for the wedding since I'm a stone lighter than I was a month ago.... nothing fits except the corsets....

Why are your Friday plans matching mine? Including the two bands to catch.
Own up, you have been spying on me!

Can you point me in the direction of the lounge coming from The Cockpit?
Also will they be doing food or should I grab something on route?

If you see Anna kick her for me to reply to texts asking for bday lists.

Hmm the lounge is not far from thesubculture (and therefore the phono) - it's on merrion street - the last street you cross coming to the merrion centre from the station - but you don't have to cross it as it's on the near side to the station and further down. shouldn't be to difficult to find.

not sure if they do food there I'm afraid! maybe someone else can answer that one?

Thanks
Sounds easy to find. I'm not tooo bad around that part of town.
Maybe I'll take room service at the hotel being lazy but saving time to enable the longest time with Anna and pints.

the lounge

They do food, And they do gorgeous food at that. Unfortunately the resturant part of the lounge doesn't seem to be open anymore, but they do quite a lot of bar snacky stuff ranging from chips to pasta etc.

What time do the birthday drinks start? I've got to see deathboy, but I might be able to swing that too (I checked her post, but couldn't work it out).

Yesh. More people should whistle superhero themes.

[identity profile] sarah-orange.livejournal.com 2007-02-06 08:21 pm (UTC)(link)
whilst in principle yes they should - the actuallity of my tone deaf colleagues whistling would suggest otherwise :D

you should hear them 'beat-boxing'
