Hit it! Make it a dead one.

Walking to the station on Friday evening, arkady and I passed a gaggle of drunk young chavs. "Ay mate, wot's wiv the shorts? Can see yer knob stickin' out!" I expect one that showed was a novelty to her.

Dead and Buried was ace. After Friday's subject line, we of course walked in to "Release The Bats." The Lord Nelson is not too bad as a venue; the sound is horrible away from the dancefloor and the beer selection is the usual pish, but the feel was good. It wasn't big on eyecandy (though I did catch what there was — photos to follow), but the DJs did almost kill us with their post-punk-in-black excellence. Howdy to mr_eleganza, jareth77, barbedwirekiss, djpsyche, ravenstoker, excy and th3lly, blankinfinity and littlelightbulb, froodthehoopy and flavius_m. _proserpina_ was missed.

The workout regime (sit-ups and leg lifts) has apparently been effective — my stomach muscles now hold themselves in. (If I'd known about this when I was nineteen, I'd be dead of about three hundred social diseases by now. We didn't have condoms in my day.) My overwhelming babeitude worked nicely with the dim lighting. A drunk nineteen-ish girlie told me I was beauuuudiful and was sure I was a film or TV actor and knew my face. (She'd earlier tried to pick up Arkady in the ladies'. We coulda been in there, mate.) And there was the bloke at the bar: "Hello, sir!" Me: "Hello!" (I shook hands in case I knew him. I'm terrible with faces.) "How come all you gofficks are so sexay?" "Uh ... blood of virgins, matey." Hey, I could have picked up a normal with slightly bleached short hair, a white polo shirt and a tan ...

Our local fox came to visit again on Saturday morning! I had Arkady's camera to hand ...

Update: Dead and Buried pics. "Prat in a Hat" was apparently out taking pics of goths to make fun of on a chav site. Feel free to photograph at close range if you see him out.

Heh. Our foxes are busily killing each other on a nightly basis. I found a large chunk of brush out the back today. With that and the bones they must be getting from the bins somewhere, and the feathery remains of some pigeons, our idyllic garden is taking on something of an abbatoir ambience.

Is that goth or industrial?

Our fella was licking one of his back paws, and then when he noticed us he limped up to the fence and jumped over it. So he may have been in a fight. I hope it's that rather than stepping on some broken glass a yob's left in the street.

Bloody lack of money! It would have been lovely to see you and Arkady, haven't seen you guys in ages.

"How come all you gofficks are so sexay?" "Uh ... blood of virgins, matey."

Yes. If you're avoiding the pish then I'll feed you cloves ;-D

[notintheseheels.livejournal.com]

Didn't have condoms in your days!!!! You're younger than ME and in "my days" they did have condoms!

That fox is soooo cute. Wouldn't you just LOVE to have it as your pet?! :)

Well, we *had* them back then, it's just that nobody really *used* them. It was all about the pill back then.

*sigh* I remember fondly the days when a girl could let you know that she was interested or might be interested or whatever, by letting her pills "accidentally" fall out of her purse.

Condoms just *aren't* the same when it comes to that sort of thing.

Ah the good old days. *g*

[themadcatlady.livejournal.com]

Tee hee. That really made me giggle. ;)

How interesting

[caveynik.livejournal.com]

Cool pics! Glad you had a good time, thanks for checking us out again. Glad you liked the tunes. I'm looking into fixing up another speaker or two in the main area, btw....

The "prat in the hat" is Brad from the US. His clubnight is here: http://www.repentclub.com feel free to contact him, if you so wish.

I don't know quite what he was doing with his camera, but I know he was well *pissed*. I've always found him to be a nice bloke, but that's alcohol for ya. I hope he wasnt to annoying....
