Zombies, cricket, fondue, cheesemmm, c*ntpuffins, w*nkparrots and how to create puerile obscenities; too much wine, baked potatoes, giant sheep, meat fondoooooh...

Empty pockets, exhausted bods and jangled nerves meant we had cancelled our party earlier this month; instead, the idea was a small dinner, with a couple of chums. Somehow said chums brought the party atmosphere with them, and the night turned into an excellent example of joyful wreckage. Thanks to [personal profile] bad_moon_rising, [profile] november_girl, [personal profile] ephraim, [profile] lauremer, [profile] scary_lady, [profile] ellistar, and the hard work of my darling [profile] larians.

There was fascinating and intellectual conversation, which somehow devolved into the creation of an unforgettable* nativity play. There were cigars which I somehow always managed to miss; and there was some straightening out of stuff in my head, courtesy of wisdom and friendship. Cheers [personal profile] ephraim.

Sunday morning was a time when hangovers ruled the earth. Oh, and cricket too. But when the cricket was done, with victory in our hearts, we went to the Black Ladd on the side of a hill, and tried to eat.

If this sounds like the kind of weekend you would rather shoot yourself than take part in, you are probably quite wise. But we enjoyed it. A gift of deepest evil came from [profile] scary_lady and [profile] ellistar; it is, ostensibly, a smoothie maker. It even has a tap. Smoothies eh? The company's collective brain launched itself at the concept of cocktails, and indeed, the poor contraption must be christened sometime...

A fine weekend. Thank you all.

*and I did try.

I thoroughly enjoyed myself :)

I did not enjoy sunday morning on the other hand. :(

Drinking three-quarters of St Joseph can't have helped;-)

Thanks for racing around and helping us prepare, you were a complete star.

Looking forward to tonight!

I probably left as much mess as I organised so it all balances. I'm looking forward to tonight as well.
