islands in the stream

no man is an island. unlike burley park station which was surrounded by a random wide, deep flood. someone had constructed a stepping stone (it really was that bad and as wide as the whole road) and another half hearted one that sank when you stood on it so once I was over (via some impressive early morning leaping) I found an abandoned formica desk top and constructed a jetty which was more effective than the wonky stepping stone. engineering at 7:30am...

Weekend was marvellous but marred by a sudden cold which cost me a day off sick on monday due to puffyheaditis. Flock was most enjoyable - although I can't actually remember what occurred! Slippery Belle was heaving and actually ran through til past 2 with an active dance floor (tends to die off about 1 most times) - the bone shakers were a definite highlight - they have the whole comedy burlesque troupe thing off to a T - go see them at whitby (along with Bella and Lexi :D) - they did a brilliant old lady bingo routine and a rocky horror one :D. I may have suggested to Bella that she have [livejournal.com profile] ulfilias turn the maid role into a Jeeves-style butler role at a future event - she even got him on stage and told the audience - hehe I'm ~ewil~

INCOMING: I appear to be djing at Black Sheep on Sunday - come along and support an orange! An orange who will probably stick to stuff she has on original cd only :P

it's light night on friday if you want to wander around town looking confused. I need to read the brochure to see what's on.

Indeed it is. I think Ra and I were planning on going to see the biology related exhibition of 'Natural Selection' by the Yorkshire Sculpture Group at Holy Trinity Church if you fancy that. Think we're meeting at FAB at 7...either that or we can meet up with you whilst wandering perhaps?

No worries m'dear. Not seen a brochure or anything so am probably up for just wandering or being dragged places so give me a prod when you guys head out :)

shall do - seems like there's lots of interesting stuff at the town hall. I've not actually been in the town hall in 20 years in leeds - apart from the bit where they do weddings...
