How much pretty can you fit into one weekend

[lonelybrit]

Ah, where to begin... Let's just start with a simple bullet-point summary, photos may follow later if I can pull my finger out and not get distracted by more pretty.


FRIDAY NIGHT

• 20:00 - Pleasant, genteel dinner on South Bank with friends. Someone mentioned going for a quick drink afterwards.


• 23:00 - Found bar selling garlic flavoured shots.


• 00:00 - Found other bar with underground caverns and 90s cheese. Dancing commences.


• 02:00 - Dancing continues. There may have been shots.


• 04:30 - Sun in process of rising. Not quite home yet...

SATURDAY

• EXPO - suffice to say there was queuing. And more queuing. Followed by more queuing. Followed by Merlin panel, featuring rather more of Johnny Capps thoughts on the show than were probably required.


• Dinner - an anthropological, socialogial study needs to be done on the Indian family dinner. There is an untapped goldmine here...

SUNDAY

• Soccer Six Charity Football match - beautiful day, stunning weather, nicely hosted by Chelsea. All in the name of charity. Also moving, epic and profound example of pure man-love in action. Yes we are looking at you Bradley and Santiago. The RPS really does write itself, awwwww ♥♥♥


• Half a dinner at dodgy pub - actually it was a very nice pub, it was just what you ordered and what went on the bill tended not to tally very well. On the plus side we got a free round of drinks out of it all, so water under the bridge and all that.


• Seth Lakeman - to quote princess_s: 'I need to lick that man.' Fantastic gig, beautiful venue, brilliant atmosphere and a good few new songs which we can't wait to hear on his new album when he gets around to releasing one.

MONDAY

• Recouperating - AKA relaxing with tea and food and plotting vast amounts of fic inspired by the past 3 days. At last count we had 6 fics covering six fandoms, ranging from epic!angst to epic!crack. Our job here is done.
