9.30 tonight meet at the steps down to the underground at Kings Cross. We are celebrating Gregory Henry's birthday - be there or be weak.

I wouldn't mind going to this, but can't as:

i. I'm meeting up with a mate in Oxford tonite

and

ii. it would be highly unlikely that I'd be back in Oxford for 2AM, which is when Bag Delivery Mang should be turning up on my doorstep with my luggage.

bummer dude. next time though!

― dog latin (dog latin), Saturday, 21 August 2004 17:54 (twenty-one years ago)

yep. have fun!

― MarkH (MarkH), Saturday, 21 August 2004 17:55 (twenty-one years ago)

A party on the steps of King's Cross sounds potentially interesting.

oh god.

― H (Heruy), Sunday, 22 August 2004 14:42 (twenty-one years ago)

how did it go Greg?

It sounds like they all lezzed up on the steps of King's Cross and the police moved them on.

― Alba (Alba), Sunday, 22 August 2004 15:01 (twenty-one years ago)

did Gareth go?

― jel -- (jel), Sunday, 22 August 2004 15:02 (twenty-one years ago)

i think he stayed in, holding his head in his hands because i was so many places ahead of him in the ILX Fantasy Premier League competition.

― the neurotic awakening of s (blueski), Sunday, 22 August 2004 15:05 (twenty-one years ago)

oh, I think I've had a terrible weekend on that!

― jel -- (jel), Sunday, 22 August 2004 15:07 (twenty-one years ago)

This morning I looked in the mirror and couldn't work out whether my expression of stupified terror was a reaction to how messy I looked, or if I was so messy that it had become my actual face. I honestly couldn't.

― Gregory Henry (Gregory Henry), Sunday, 22 August 2004 15:08 (twenty-one years ago)

It was brilliant.

― Gregory Henry (Gregory Henry), Sunday, 22 August 2004 15:08 (twenty-one years ago)

(No Gareth, boo!)

― Gregory Henry (Gregory Henry), Sunday, 22 August 2004 15:09 (twenty-one years ago)

isn't gareth in cologne?

― lauren (laurenp), Sunday, 22 August 2004 15:11 (twenty-one years ago)

where did you go Greg? sorry i couldn't make it out. i chatted to Gareth last night, i'm pretty sure he wasn't in Cologne, but it's always difficult to tell.

― the neurotic awakening of s (blueski), Sunday, 22 August 2004 15:13 (twenty-one years ago)

i wasnt in koln. it wasnt possible in the end. i didnt go to this, either. where did you go, what was it like?

― cooper streaks, de funiak sprs (gareth), Sunday, 22 August 2004 15:17 (twenty-one years ago)

i asked him but he has not told me. perhaps he will tell you.

― the neurotic awakening of s (blueski), Sunday, 22 August 2004 15:18 (twenty-one years ago)

Sorry! I was playing Go.

― Gregory Henry (Gregory Henry), Sunday, 22 August 2004 20:01 (twenty-one years ago)

The thing was in Wood Green, the Middlex University Gallery - I dunno if it was a squat or a break-in but the venue was /amazing/, all glass-fronted and huge and warehouse-like inside. Horrible cramped corridors, though.

― Gregory Henry (Gregory Henry), Sunday, 22 August 2004 20:04 (twenty-one years ago)

Why do people bring dogs to stuff like this? Fuck's sake.

― Gregory Henry (Gregory Henry), Sunday, 22 August 2004 20:08 (twenty-one years ago)

Nu-school breaks, yawn, then techno.

― Gregory Henry (Gregory Henry), Sunday, 22 August 2004 20:10 (twenty-one years ago)

I dunno, I'm not doing it justice! It was an amazing night, we met some really ace people. We talked about y'all and decided that you'd do.

― Gregory Henry (Gregory Henry), Sunday, 22 August 2004 20:11 (twenty-one years ago)

It was fun! Except the end where someone passed out - that wasn't fun.

But yes, it was fun.

― dog latin (dog latin), Monday, 23 August 2004 00:01 (twenty-one years ago)

And I got to play the hugging game with some very strange girls indeed. Which was also fun.

And them dogs were terrifying - they were going to rip each other to bits!

― dog latin (dog latin), Monday, 23 August 2004 00:16 (twenty-one years ago)

oh crazy nutbar teacherly kimono-wearing Amelie-haired bubble-catching spacehead girly where are you?

― dog latin (dog latin), Monday, 23 August 2004 08:28 (twenty-one years ago)

I regularly find myself asking that exact same question...

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Monday, 23 August 2004 08:36 (twenty-one years ago)

partying at my house.

― ken c (ken c), Monday, 23 August 2004 08:53 (twenty-one years ago)

Typical. Thought as much.

― dog latin (dog latin), Monday, 23 August 2004 08:55 (twenty-one years ago)

come if you like

― ken c (ken c), Monday, 23 August 2004 08:55 (twenty-one years ago)

(bring sister)

― ken c (ken c), Monday, 23 August 2004 08:55 (twenty-one years ago)

I had no idea this kind of thing went on in Wood Green. mind you, I only usually spend five or so minutes in Wood Green at any one time, waiting for a bus in Lordship Lane to get to my Mum's house.

― MarkH (MarkH), Monday, 23 August 2004 08:56 (twenty-one years ago)

btw - 5-HTP and magnesium tablets from Holland and Barrett are the shit if you suffer from comedowns.

― dog latin (dog latin), Monday, 23 August 2004 08:56 (twenty-one years ago)

I think it was in the 4rt g4ll3ry at M1ddl3s3x Un1. The music was a bit weak though. I don't understand why everything has to be so streamlined and repetitive in London. Rural raves like STS and Exodus seem to have a much more diverse range of styles. There's only so much WHOOMPAWHOOMPAWHOOMPA I can take in a night.

― dog latin (dog latin), Monday, 23 August 2004 08:59 (twenty-one years ago)

Horrible cramped corridors, though.

yes - horrible. imagine 50 people trying to squeeze through a small hole - that's what it was like. there was a decided lack of scallies too which was nice, although i did catch some kid trying to rifle my pocket at one point towards the end which pissed me off somewhat.

― dog latin (dog latin), Monday, 23 August 2004 09:11 (twenty-one years ago)

ah, i'm only just down the road from Wood Green, I'm currently of the thinking that I hate the kind of thing described tho.

― the neurotic awakening of s (blueski), Monday, 23 August 2004 09:26 (twenty-one years ago)

reasons why? (other than scallywags and druggies)?

― dog latin (dog latin), Monday, 23 August 2004 09:38 (twenty-one years ago)

cramped environs and from what you said about the music.

― the neurotic awakening of s (blueski), Monday, 23 August 2004 09:40 (twenty-one years ago)

yeh. it was only the corridor that was cramped. the rest of it was very spacious.

― dog latin (dog latin), Monday, 23 August 2004 09:55 (twenty-one years ago)

DL and lunatic Amelie-child, sitting inna TREEEEEE

roffle.

― dog latin (dog latin), Monday, 23 August 2004 12:17 (twenty-one years ago)

(she didn't look like that)

― dog latin (dog latin), Monday, 23 August 2004 12:17 (twenty-one years ago)

different hair.

― dog latin (dog latin), Monday, 23 August 2004 12:18 (twenty-one years ago)

oh, and older.

― dog latin (dog latin), Monday, 23 August 2004 12:18 (twenty-one years ago)

She did look kinda like that! It's the eyes. (alright, alright, she was cute though, in a mad way)

― Gregory Henry (Gregory Henry), Monday, 23 August 2004 12:19 (twenty-one years ago)

Have we worked out what gave us the stomach aches? Was that the magnesium?

― Gregory Henry (Gregory Henry), Monday, 23 August 2004 12:22 (twenty-one years ago)

I think the first bunch were probably made of soap powder or something. Well, it worked for Cheech & Chong.
