After a hard days painting again, it was nice to see Kev’s photos from Ashton Court. The two photos linked here and here show a game I vaguely remember participating in (instigating?) that involved head butting each other at waist height. I’m sure I won, but it’s all a little hazy. I love festivals, me. Round two at Beth’n’Ali’s, Stu?
The picture accompanying this article from yesterday´s Mural made me Laugh Out Loud…
They were caught stealing people´s credit card details and pins with a laptop and card reading thing. According to the last line they also moonlight as exotic dancers. Check your bank statements if you´ve been to a “Teibol” in Michocan lately 😉
After a fun morning configuring Skype for internet talking (user name’s gwynfisher if you fancy belling me)… Sally and Martin took me to Pala, a Southern California version of Vegas with a more laid back atmosphere. As a cover band played Black Velvet and Paradise City, I played roulette and a fair bit of poker only losing a small amount of money over the 1.5 hrs there. They make their money on the $3 charge to use the cash machine (ATM) i reckon. Anyway it was worth it (using my finely honed Justification System ™) as all those losses went towards the all-you-probably-shouldn’t-eat bargain buffet, which included steak, bbq pork, special fried rice, salmon, spring rolls, spinach salad, beetroot, profiteroles, wine, chocolate cake, chips, spuds, cajun shrimp, chow mein and pizza. 4 hrs later and I’m still waddling round. I’ll never fit into that little black dress for Bethan and Ali’s Behitchment ceremony in two weeks. Sita’s back tomorrow morning, turns out there was all comers in Philly including Kathy & Vance, and Burmese food was Saturday night’s theme. Oh well, next year etc…
I keep trying to phone but no one’s answering… Even Jed. Many happy returns. Pressie’s in the pipeline. Honest… Will celebrate in style when we get back (June 28th is the latest ETA). Break out the Zider and Jaffa cakes.
