Nov. 26th, 2006 09:42 pmSo, went to Bristol. Saw friends. Went to B7 meetup. Saw more friends. Made some friends. Went to a party. Saw friends many of whom I hadn't seen for a while. Saw most of them again the next day
Some good things and some slightly annoying things, which I'll get out of the way first..
Annoying thing #1 - some idiot whcaked my wing mirror! A-****ing-gain. Now, I'm going to replace it soon anyway, but that's not the point. Whoever did it damaged my car and just drove off because they thought they could get away with it. Actually the whole journey home was annoying what with not really wanting to change lane (only had one effective wing mirror), not being able to pull into the last convenient serivces between Reading and Pease Pottage because some idiot had rolled his lorry on the entrance, spending a
Annoying thing #2 - I couldn't be in two places at the same time. Pub was fun. Party was fun.
But anyway, arrived in Bristol drove around playing a game of Space Hunter. Eventually found a space only a few hundred miles from where I wanted to go. Chatted to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
tyrshundr and the_smut_fairy and the other flatmate who may or may not be on LJ. Went to the pub.
I should have taken the bus. The correct stop was clearly marked. I found the palce fairly easily although since the directions wer from the station, I took a slightly roundabout route.spacefall and steverogerson were already there. And so I chatted mostly to steve and spacefall, but milled around a little. Met girfan briefly. Confused everyone there because I was the only person who got the name. Note to self - don't sing the doom song in mixed company unless you don't mind scaring people. Met snowgrouse, who I thought was decidedly cool, and also had some very funky pics in her notebook.
But I had to leave. I had said I was going torattieally's birthday party, so I did. And met some people I hadn't met for a long time. I knew I was in the right place when someone suggested playing Global Thermonuclear War (I'd prefer a good game of chess). We decided not to play because as someone else pointed out, the only way to win is not to play. So we played pass the parcel (done the good way with a prize between each layer) and pin the nose on the penguin and whacked a pinata and then played apples toapples - a fun little game where you need to select the most suitable noun for an adjective. I lost convincingly.
Went to bed. Made some rhymic pumping noises to inflate a matress Woke up. Went to Reckless Engineer and met most of the people from the party. Had Sunday Lunch. And all was good.
