Tim's Birthday

I went to London this weekend as it was Tim's birthday. There were just three of us, me, Michal and Tim. We caught a train early in the afternoon and arrived in London around 2.30. We went straight to the hotel, dropped our stuff off and then went straight to Leicester Square and to this little cafe run by lesbians, we had a bite to eat and then went to CXR, Tim's fave pub! It's full of men cruising and has a very distinctive atmosphere, I quite like it, but not as much as Tim. Michal, bless him, was oblivious to all this I think. We then went back to the hotel to get ready.

Michal had arranged to meet his friend later that evening, they are both Polish, so plans were changing on a minute by minute basis. We went back to Soho and had a meal in Balans, which was ok. I had a bit of a cold though and wasn't feeling all that much like drinking :(

After Balans we went to G.A.Y. Bar, we were meant to meet michal's friend there, but an hour after the arranged meeting time and still no sign of him, we left lol! We headed straight for ManBar in Southwark, another one of Tim's favourites. It has dark rooms and cabins! It was funny to see Michal's reactions, for the first 30 mins he loved it and went into some of the darkrooms, I did too until someone put some really strong poppers under my nose which gave me heart palpitations lol! After 30 mins Michal was bored, Tim had scored, so we left.

We went to XXL, which is a clun for 'bears and their admirers', since we are neither of those, I don't really know why we went, but I have been before and the music is good and there are normally lots of nice, nonbears there lol. Tim headed straight for the darkroom, Michal vanished somewhere and I danced to Kylie, perfect :)

Now I've gotta go, it's tea time and my collegues are calling xxxx

Chloe

I have rescued another cat :) Her name is Chloe, here are some pics I took of her at the weekend. She is such a pretty little pussycat, with tiny little white paws and black toes.

Mopeds

The weekend just gone I was meant to be driving to Manchester with Michal and his sister. We were gonna go clubbing and just have a good time. But before we'd even gotten out of Cambridge, I did a really stupid turn on the road and knocked this poor man off his moped. He wasn't hurt, but I felt so bad and I could have easily killed him. He hit into the front wheel of my car and it couldn't be moved, so I had to call out a recovery vehicle which cost loads. We didn't get to go to Manchester, and to top it all the police drove by and saw what was happening, I had to go to the police car and make a statement and then the policeman said that the report would be going to the traffic division and they might decide to prosecute me..yikes. All because I was sooo stupid. One minute we were all excited about going to Manchester and the next minute we were all feeling terrible :(

But fear not, we have arranged another visit to Manchester at Easter :)
