Well had a busy few days since the last update.
Went out on thursday night for
peskynymph 's birthday drinks, had quite a nice night despite events in london and the centre of nottngham being taped off by the police probably another bomb scare. Started in Speak easy then we all headed down tto the Sal then when that closed we eneded up in a late night bar on St Jame's street which might have been called Bar Areba I cant remember anyway it was quite cool the batrman looked liek a gay german and there was posters of betty page and marilyn monroe on the walls and they were showing a betty page strip teese video and playing shit indie stuff, it rminded me of the gay bars in Barcelona but thats another story!
Got up late of friday after drinking to much butterscotch schnaps the night before, think i went into the workshop for a bit then me and Fran had a night in and watched strange days.
On saturday we got up early and got the train up to wakefield coz Fran had a photoshoot near there,m shoot went ok I think we wernt that long because the train took so long. Train on the way back was even worse, it took four hours for a journey that should have taken an hour, trains kept being delayed then we told the train to get for our connection then one train had to wait for ages whilst police came out because of fighting on the train, so we were very hot a pissed off by the time we got back to nottingham.
Just had time to get changed quickly when i got home them Claire and billy arrived and we all went out to nightmare. The new venue was nice it got a bit cramped and hot by the end, but i think nightmare will do well there in the future and at least it look nice! I didnt dance ,much because it was crowded and felt a bit strange didn't talk to people as i felt a bit cut off and like there wasnt much point me being there, how i often feal, dont really know how to bridge the gap to talk to people , oh well might have just been an off day.
Went to party at Tim n James house after nightmare which was good dispite the police turning up at one point because of the noise! we left at five in the morinig when it got light!
Spent most of sunday in the park with people then had an early night.
Got up early monday moring to go to Manchester for the NIN gig, unfortunetly Fran felt very ill so we gave her ticket to Jill so I didnt have to bother getting the coach which was good. Jill drove me, infestlee and aiden to manchester and we managed to find the Apollo easily must have been my map reading!
The gig was great wasnt sure about the suport band and it was really hot in thier, but Nine Inch Nails were really good, lots of flingign of guitars around and very entertainign, they played for nearly two hours and got all the best songs in! the backing band could have looked more intresting I wonder if Trent made them all get the same haircut! acording to the others last nights gig was loads better than the played in Birmingham on friaday so I'm glad a went to the manchester gig!
We got home at one in the morning needless to say I didnt go to the gym this morning but i did make it to the workshop, had a couple of orders recently one from japan and one from new zealand so thats cool hopefully they will pick up now!

Would be awesome to see NIN again...last time i saw them trent was so fucked up he was lying on the stage...kinda wailing...the band didn't even know what to do...and you couldn't really understand trent at all...was kinda disappointing but kinda funny at the same time....
