So febmeet
Feb. 20th, 2005 09:37 pmv. little sleep, no voice and hangover. yay for febmeet.
Had a damn good time ;) better than expected considering a lot of people weren't there. but there was lots of cider and even lots of people to drink it with. There's nothing like quite like drinking til breakfast time - tho it seems to take me a lot longer to recover these days alas. old age setting in no doubt.
Arrived lateish friday, but time enough for a few drinks in the pub - and to harrange Wodan at length for being a tight-fisted four-eye foreign round shirker. Still didn't get a drink out of him tho :p
Then back to the hotel for drinks there and purchasing of much cider from Sas. Ended up in ... someone's room, somewhere. quite a few people too. Wherein the drinking til breakfast time ensued, accompanied by bed surfing and probably other stuff. ALl v. vague now ;)
got a few hours kip after breakfast and woke up to find i'd left my phone... somewhere, so dragged myself out of bed and off to the pub to find people. Had lunch there, located phone then braved the bowling alley.
HELL ON EARTH.
Did they specifically design that place to inflict maximum sensory torture on the hungover? Bright lights, lurid colours LOUD noise, too much STUFF going on. And that was just![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
malvino 's shirt :p
Theatre in the evening was good - we even all managed to get there on time. I'd forgotten just how funny reduced shakespear co. are, was doubled over almost crying with laughter at some points. Then back to Feltham and the pub for FOOD and more cider, hurrah!
TMOTS was as usual v. accomodating of the crazy internet peoples and I don't think anyone was too embarrassing, even halodge wasn't swinging from the light fittings this year, tho he was drinking a disgusting pink milkshake thing.
Back at the hotel much merriment commenced with music. oh. just recalled the dancing to Grease with hagi. hmm.. anyway merriment with music (and dancing), armwresting, which i sucked mightily at, and so on.
We invaded yet another room once the bar shut, this time with added spirits - bacardi and vodka and so on, which were swiftly disposed of with the help of the best touchy-feeling shot drinking game EVAR, while Ukko freaked Tique's brother out demanding pron on the telly NOW from the phone cable...
So we moved to Carino's room and kept going til breakfast. Don't really remember breakfast, tho I'm sure I ate some. Ah. there was elera related ranting (its all coming back in bits and pieces :p) Then off to bed to grab a few hours kip before checkout.
Had 2nd breakfast in the pub with danbala, clio, carino and assorted others before stumbling plane-wards and home. I'm sure there's more that will come back to me - there were also bouts of Eye of Argon reading, landing on my ass in the lobby trying to teach Flurble to ceili swing, Tom's repeated and constant effort to say Rokning Dodar (or however it was spelt) properly, finally meeting Bremen, and the usual catching up with people. Ooh and got v. lovely SHINY stick-on nails from Danbala.
