It's been brought to my attention that I've not been posting. Sorry :-( I've gotten involved in being Lazy. *grins*

Let's see: It's too much, I'll sum up, and be able to write detail later.

Tuesday last - work too much, leave for airport and England Proceed to not sleep
Wednesday last - get to Cambridge, nap fitfully, visit Nandos, proceed not to sleep again. Break boots, curse, repack furiously about 8 times

Thursday last - arrive in Leipzig. Have mental breakdown at information overload. Get to hotel. Regain some life at call from J&J, head out get tickets and wristband, go to AinL dinner, where I talk to noone but J&J, little M and a nice Leipzig lady who was cute as a button, but no name got communicated *sighs* Back to hotel and CRASH.

Friday last - eat breakfast that ended up NOT being free. Argued about it being worth it due to the sheer amount of meat avavilable *grins* Went to the Agra for boots, HOLY SHIT look at all the goffs! Finally find boots, proceed to NEVER fit into the New Rocks (more on that later) Then to the Parkbuhne to see The Dreamside and catch this other band Xandria which I like (Number of bands I need stuff for at this point = 2) BACK to the hotel, change, meet J&J and head to Darkflower, which is neat but too full of goffs. Off to bed.

Saturday - Sleep late, REALLY late. get call from housekeeping asking if lazy asses are going out. *grins* We will continue to have issues with the maid, whom I lovingly call Greta, all weekend. Went to Werk II to see M's friend's band Voices of Masada (who didn't really do it for me, but frankly I was exhausted and my feet HURT from the excessive walking) Then back to the tram, headto the Agra where we laughed about potentially getting in to see VNV Nation. We listened for a bit outside, then back to the hotel.

Sunday - after yesterday's call, we cleared out of the room to let Greta work, and take J&J to lunch. Went to a streetfair that goes on this same weekend, had steaks and sausages (there were LOTS and LOTS of these. I ALMOST never want to see meat again!) Back to the hotel, Greta has NOT made up our room. We proceed to get Ready, Greta WALTZES in, and I wish she'd come in 15 minutes sooner - can you say eyeful *evil grin* We go to meet J&J, for Beborn Beton, who were AWESOME, pictures to follow. then BACK AGAIN to the Agra to see Clan of Xymox, where the crowd was rude and annoying. Chat some more with M's friends, say goodbye to J&J who were leaving early the next day for more of their honeymoon. Back to sleep.

Monday - get call AGAIN. SOrry, my feet hurt and I'm paying for the room dammit! Back to the Parkbuhne to see The Last Dance, who were suprisingly good, and the next band, whom were not. M liked them, and we did most things for me, so I was prone to staying. Then to the Mortizbasti for Killing Miranda who were REALLY good, and I finally found out who sings that Discoteche song (bands I need more of - lets say 4 as I'm going to get my hands on ALL Beborn Beton now. Wheee!) However I got quite clastrophobic in there, although the venue is fantastic! Too many people. *sighs* It ends up being a short walk to our hotel from there.

Tuesday - up EARLY fgor breakfast and to make the 9:45 bus to the dreary airport. Sometimes it doesn't pay to be a dickhead. See, there were a lot of them. WE put our luggage into the hold, some people thought who care about blocking aisles, WE wanrt to get through customs faster! So they blocked the door with their luggage, then proceeded to whine how if EVERYONE just waited for them, to go first, we'd all be all set. Kudos to the bald man who, jumped OVER all the luggage in the rear door, pulled them out, and DUMPED them aside so to let US out first, and force those people to wait then get their luggage. Consequently, M And I were ones of the first few in line. Which was nice to relax, and watch the checkin. Of course the line to the plane, asshattery all over again. There's more later on this. We arrive at Cambridge uneventfully, Head to Chili's as I was craving something familar and I dragged the poor boy to see XMen United. What crap. I'm very angry at some things. Again more later.

Wednesday - continued on the get up late bent, but this day we hustled to meet a friend of M at her celebratory lunch/drinks at the end of her exams. Was yummy. Did a bit of shopping. out to O&T's house for takeaway Indian and a tour. bed early

Thursday - again, get up late FINALLY get Kebob - YUMMMMMM! Then out to a Cambridge Trust park, for a bit of a walk around. This place used to be the estate and Stables of the Earl of Godolphin, and the Godolphin Arabian is buried here. PIctures to come, with an explaination for the non-horsey *grins* We did a lot of cursing of bugs and bus drivers, one of whom wer asked to stop and he blew by the stop and we took another 20 minutes to get off then waited a half hour to get back! Let's not mention the HOUR wait once I was done with nature. *sighs* Then we had realy good Chinese food for dinner, and ice cream and champagne *grins*

That brings us to now. I need to repack my suitcases, and get ready to head to London. Tonight it's back to the Goff, for BMovie, and seeing M's London friends.

If I have access from the Hotel, there may be another brief update. We're quite busy in London, seeing people, and going places. I do want that tour to Hampton court and we're looking to hit Camden today.

*hugs* ANd while I don't want to leave, I REALLY long for my schedule. Maybe it'll be easier for me to get up!
