nurse_liz came to visit and we both calmed down after respective stresses of work and driving through Tintwistle, with the help of a bottle of Merlot and Domino's pizzas. nurse_liz even stopped sneezing sometime during the night, which was a Good Thing.
nannyo met us at the station, and we wandered round a foody market before finding Affleck's Palace for lunch, before being joined by tooth_fairy and mrmmarc (who made himself popular by being able to quote Shakespeare accurately), and then cryx.
We sworemrmmarc to secrecy regarding What Goes On during girly shopping trips, and took him to Abakhan Fabrics, where he was scared by the large polystyrene piles cushions rings. Bought some yarn because it was called Firefly and, over coffee, discovered it's s total bitch to knit. Nice string trio & singer doing carols in Piccadilly Gardens to take my mind off it, though. I didn't wince at her tuning once.
Home, chicken stoo, andnurse_liz dressed up as me while I dressed up as her. I can't remember the last time I left the house wearing nothing black. Not even my shoes and knickers were black. (Socks don't count*.)
Great time around Canal Street and Fab Cafe (hurrah for Steppenwolf!) and obligatory chips.nurse_liz's beatiful pink hair pulled everywhere we went, too.
Much, much knitting too.nurse_liz is managing to knit something that looks like a large hamster pelt out of tadpoles.
All in all, I appear to have lost my phobia & worry about having friends to stay :) Oooh, and even Pootlecat likednurse_liz, and didn't *always* run away from nannyo.
Oh, and the Bugatti Veyron. The Marcos might have been prettier (I like muscle cars, after all) but oh, the sound and the engine and the design and Oh.
More 911 Carrera letchery though. Bah. Anyone with a hat like that doesn't deserve a Porsche.
The race would have been a lot better had it not been so obviously fixed, and the "problems" with the plane so obviously scripted.
