I'm back home after a weekend of swelteringly hot public transport, a slightly less sweltering car, and seeing people.

Thanks to (a) work being gits, and (b) being knackered, I didn't drive home til Saturday morning, at which point 2 people decided to write off Puntos on the M6. Jolly good fun. Still managed to get home, avoiding the worst of the Silverstome and Milton Keynes Bowl queues, dropped off my hoover with the traditional cry of "Daddy Fix", and went to find [livejournal.com profile] kitty_goth in Camden. Which was *relatively* quiet, if (and I never thought I'd say this) Too Hot To Shop. Still, I've had a pint in the Dev, which almost makes me a real goth. Getting overexcited about finding the video to "Perfect Strangers" (a rock video, with no scantily-clad women. Who'd have thought it?) on YouTube negates most of it, though :)

Met many other crazy cat ladies & knitters, including [livejournal.com profile] miss_newham again (very scary LJ friends overlaps), watched Doctor Who (disappointing but still pretty good), went to Antilight (great place, minimal bleep and decent aircon) and had All The Food In The World in the park :) Failed to meet up with Sister because her hangover was too bad for the tube.

Hitchin had its first rain since the hosepipe ban last night, because I washed my car. Bah. Found an old Top Gear on Sky and remembered just how much I want a TVR Griffith. Was quite horrified at how much James May's aged over the last three years.

The cats haven't eaten the furniture (or been sick anywhere visible, which is a nice change).


ETA: Found the catpuke! All is right with the world!

Are you suggesting Miss N and I are both very scary?

Fair enough!

I'd love to meet up with you again soon!

*You* aren't - the crossover between TG fandom and the London Goths (via knitting) is the scary bit! I feel like one of those exploding lemmings - I'll hold my head and count down from 5, then go bang...

Croydon Motor Show! Yes!

Well [livejournal.com profile] sideshow_meg knows [livejournal.com profile] gleet who's married to [livejournal.com profile] littlebun who went to school with myself & Miss N! So I think there might be six degrees of Richard Hammond....

Indo and possibly Hullfire should be comming down too!

I'd happy dance back but it's too hot.
