Mostly it's all in good fun....I know enough to limit my profile info to strangers, but you can't stop people from trying to add you as friends. I've had one or two send friend requests that I didn't like years ago when I had to be around them, so why would I want to be on-line friends with them now? I just click the ignore button - so much easier than telling them to fuck off really. Plus, I'm too polite to say something like that.
Looking at my last post, it was all about the stag night. Well, things moved on since then and I'm married! Woohoo! I keep planning to do a day by day blog for everyone who wanted to know what when on (and for my one memory too) - I even have all the notes right here beside my PC - *waves paper*. Still, I haven't done it, but it's written down.
For those of you who want the short / abridged / Coles Notes / Readers Digest version, here it goes.
Had the stag night - it was fab. Got the telly delivered a week before the wedding. It's beautiful (now have a new PC attached to it as well, so it's great for going through all our photos, music, and
Got to Victoria on Monday evening, welcomed by all the family and settled in. Got fitted for tuxes the next day, did some shopping, went to the hotel and met our photographer (*phwoar!*) and generally did wedding stuff.
Met up with some of our London friends at an Irish bar (they are everywhere), talked about Canada - first time for many of them, drank and laughed. Thursday did the rehersal - and figured out what went where etc.
Friday - got married. Fantastic day, lovely speeches by everyone - and from all reports most people thought it was the best wedding they'd been to. I should hope so - us gay boys know how to put on a party. Of course, it would have been not so great if my parents had not helped organise so much of it. They even put on a big party on the Sunday at their home for everyone.
Tuesday, me and my new husband flew out to Las Vegas and stayed in the Luxor Hotel. Wow - what a place that is, both the hotel and the city. Truly a playground for grownups. Didn't win big, but had fun playing the slots, wandering around and being tourists. Even made it to the Liberace Museum! woohoo! It's a long bloody walk from the strip, that's for sure. We took the shuttle bus back.
Oh, and Jason from Krave was a rather lovely highlight. Shame the girl who spilled a drink on me never got around to sending me a picture of the two of us with him. She was so drunk she probably drank my business card with my email. It was the only time we didn't take the camera. Oh well....
Had a few days in Vancouver, met up with friends there then it was all over and back to London with a few more days off.
My parents visited in July for two weeks as they were coming for our post London party which was an enormous success - almost 100 people there with a drag queen for a bit of cabaret thrown in for fun. All our gay friends were most annoyed as they told us 'we'd set the bar rather high' and they'd have to try and outdo us. Even my best man, Jason told me he was not pleased as 'he's the one that throws great parties.' Trust me, that is quite a compliment coming from him.
So now it's summer....well, that what the calendar says, but for the most part the weather in London has been rather crap. We've had two nice warm weekends so far, but that's it. At least it was nothing but warm sunshine for Brighton Pride - all those disco bunnies got their disco tits out!
So, in a nutshell that's what I've been up to. The comment in the previous blog is from one of my favourite bloggers - he's dumping people off his blogroll that haven't been blogging for at least two months. So that's prompted me into action. Mind you, he took a break for more than two months...although he did announce it...whereas I've just mostly been lazy, and at times stuck for words - which really is not like me at all.
So must do better. We'll see. But Big Brother is on now, so must run.
Yes, I'm that sad.
