Assuming that the wet storm would be coming from the west, Manchester is about 30miles south of Preston so it MIGHT just miss me...
Although as I said the raincloud is still probably hiding in the bushes waiting for me...

I like sweaty clubs but not when a person always seems to be next to you smelling like road kill...or is that me?

I really must have been on a bad night when I went to Scalla, if anything it was cold inside, but I went to see a burlesque show instead of a gay night

Steaks: Was the Burlesque show better than the one at Monster?
Linden: Do you have any photos of your particular grab? Were you trying to get your hands on his Crystals to spend more time in his Crystal Dome...?

It was much, much better than that one, they revealed more, there was more performing and it lasted much longer, although I didn't have Nos there, I did get to meet all 7 girls that perforrmed as well as most of the other 15 or so that were there on promotion. It was an all night event with bands and DJ's and everything sucked and was poorley organised except the burlesque show

There are some things which are just lost on me...
Saying that I wouldn't mind seeing a full-on Vaudevillian Burlesque with excellent choreography and costumes (as well as creative ways of shedding them)
For some reason male strippers don't appeal to me. Men gyrating - g-string or not - just seems WRONG...

It was a most entertaining show, and all the girls kept knickers on and nipples covered, it was part of the conditions of the show. Still waiting to hear when the full UK tour begins officially though. When they come to Manchester/Preston I'll let you know Dave an we can get tickets so you can see for yourself

I'll think I'll pass on that one...
I'm sure my money would be better spent in other areas.
Oh yeah.
**DIARY UPDATE**
I'm moving out of my parent's place (again!) into Preston town centre. Takes 1hour/30mins off my travel time to work and there's more connections from Preston to other places.
Yay!

Yes he does, I took him under my wing at the Manchester meets and now he's truly evolved into his own beast....
I might just do that depending on the amount of time I can get off work...
When is Poi in the punt anyway? Details, websites please...
And yes the move is good. I did toy with the idea of staying with the folks to save money until i go away but mum and dad are driving me up the wall in different ways. Too much love from Mum and just scowls from Dad...
