shopping and dropping

So it's a lovely day on Saturday morning, I've managed to get up and play badminton with Nat, somehow, I always play badly at the start, then once I've warmed up, win the next 10 or so points straight, then I decide I should let her win a few points, next thing I know - she's celebrating victory and I'm wondering how she's one another game?!!

Anyway - so I check my facebook, see that I've been invited to Galop's fundraising event at St Anne's church in soho. You know the big one whose grounds are the only bit of green space on Wardour street. So I call up Marcy and we decide to go along, thinking a mini street party, and fun.

We arrive to find no evidence of the party on the street, the event is inside the church, there's a drag queen doing bingo, badly, and the good raffle prizes (cans of tuna) have all been won....

And to think I had to use liive search to find out who Galop were...with that type of event I'm surprised I could get through the doors without forcing my way through a huge crowd of people!

Fundraising done, we decided to cruise around soho and look for some men to ogle, totty was on the low levels for some reason, and considering I'm in rebound stage - that there was nothing to interest me means there must have been a shortage or something!

Torring off home to change before Maike's party, we arrive at Akbar on Dean street to the sound of Estelle's - Just a Touch, the music is great - a little reminiscient - but enlivening (is that a word) and stirring good memories, No Doubt - Hella good and Hey Baby both play, and after two hours of this - we're REALLY hot under the arches, so we split to Profile, find out we HAVE TO EAT IN ORDER TO BE SERVED ALCOHOL AFTER 11PM!!

Asking queens to eat pizza after 11pm? How does that work!! Without imbibing/consuming anything we leave for lo-profile where surprisingly we have a great night, and boogie around, then go for kebab at 2am to make up for the pizza we missed from profile!

Then it's off to Birthday lunch with Parentals and family on sunday, spending all the time in a train or in shade - when all I wanna do it tanning!

Oath to self - buy some blinds for my bedroom tomorrow and go on a sunbed! Then find somewhere to buy the flying neutrinos new album!
Listening to: Flying Neutrinos - Bei Mir Bist Du Schon
