packed

this past weekend was buzzing with festivities.

on friday night i seemingly did the impossible and caught up with all that i wanted to in the city. the liverpool biennial opened - a ten week contemporary and public arts festival around the city, brilliant - so rich and i checked out the score at FACT. i made it down to the docks for michelle's 21st birthday, tried to get into the apparently exclusive invitation only biennial party, but the line was down the block and we couldn't be bothered to wait. in the end, i met up with sam, kel, lou and andrew at dragon for a couple drinks and then a fairly early night.

jumped on a train on saturday morning to coventry for davoud's birthday. sean and i cooked up a storm in the evening and we sat around with friends to celebrate getting older. and i did feel older because we were having a proper dinner party to celebrate a birthday, not going out and getting pissed. but we still got pissed.

as soon as nick and i started mixing the old fashioneds and the bourbon and vodka were unleashed the pictures started to get a bit blurrier and things started to get interesting.

sunday was a bit of recovery and i was treated to family sunday night dinner with anna and davoud by his mum before hopping back on the train to liverpool.

i'm exhausted just thinking about it.
