Weekend...

So, it wasn't as successful a weekend as I was hoping. 

I rang up Parcel force to find out what had happened to my parcel.  They'd delivered it to a nearby post office.  They could have asked!  And there was no explanation as to why I had no card.  Still, I found the place and the nice lady there gave me the parcel.  I am now the proud owner of some shiny purple DMs. 

Car didn't get finished until about midday.  Test drove my DMs to the test centre.  They possibly need some breaking in.  I am also the proud owner of a pair of blisters. 

Was hoping to go to Bristol for Zombie walk thingy, but lack of car meant I couldn't get there in time. 

Still. After that things picked up a bit.  tictactoepony, masterofapath and lemming_man had been top a My Little Pony con and Tictactoe was geeking about it non-stop.  Then we turned up for a gathering at the_smut_fairy's place to wish her happy birthday and generally catch up with things of a Bristol nature.  Was pleased there was general approval of my non-purple trousers.  Had Port.  Had Ginger Wine.  Also had cat ears and some wool.  Had lots of fun. 

Sunday we went to the Hop House for some food. Saw chocojon.  Ate food.  Ate more food.  Rather tasty but would like larger servings. 

Also went to Forbidden Planet.  Always nice to visit there. 

Wish I'd been able to see more of the people I know in Bristol.

Really need to get people to my place for a party.  Just wish it was more viable for those of you who live in Bristol (and Northern England, Scotland, Germany and Spain for that matter) to visit.
