Mr Party Boy
Tuesday 5th August 2008, 9:59 PM

My word, what a weekend! From leaving work Friday night to arriving home on Tuesday morning, I'm feeling pretty shattered. Me and Paul left from Victoria about 8, and arriving in Brighton about an hour later. From there we moved on a bar and socialized with the locals. The have a burger bar in Brighton , which I can remember the name of, something grub, good burgers but long queues. We didn't stay for too long since we where up early the next day to see the parade.

Saturday morning it was a bit of a rush getting up and out the door by 10:30. We proceeded to Weatherspoon's to get some breakfast, what you have to realise is the vast amount of people that where there led to extreme waiting times for jut about anything. Whilst having some casual banter over some morning soft drinks, we watched the parade provide some interesting, and some odd looking floats. We where on the first floor in Weatherspoon's so looking down, we could see all the internal workings. I'm assuming you had a better view fro ground level.

As the floats proceeded up the wet street (it was pouring with rain), I had the amusing imagery of 2000 queens, screaming as the fire engines, floats and anything on wheels slid back down the hill, lmao, I'm so cruel! . We ate breakfast and took a shortcut, through some back streets to Tristan's to change then meet the parade in mid flow stopping off for some drink along the way as well.

We met Alex, an amazing guy, who's outfit was a rugby kit, from head to toe, socks to ball, even studded shoes, well, I was enjoying the sight, which was amazing, he's older than me, and spent the day getting to know him, he such a sweet guy, generous and with his kit, had rather a lot of attention. I thought id try something a bit kinkier so I was in leather handcuffs, studded collar an even had a leash. Alex led me about as I held his rugby ball, by my leash which was incredibly hot. I waited with him for his bus at the end o the evening but getting to know him, he's an incredible guy, so relaxed and level headed,

After following the parade, we headed to the main park, where all the rides where, with tents, stalls, food, and a sea of people. Paul and Ryan had to pick up their stuff from Ryan's campsite, Tristan and Simon went their own way, leaving me an Alex alone for quite a bit. Partying in the wild fruit tent was fun, which we spent rather a lot of time doing. We must have swapped about 3 different crowds dancing with us. But overall most people where rather friendly. Alex wanted to go on the slides, which gave us a great view, but I got some friction burn on the way down! Grr!

More drinking, Dancing, and tons of walking later, we met Paul and Ryan then Tristan and Simon. We left the park and moved onto the main part of Brighton town. We had a few more drink in town although it wasn't amazing since the town was absolutely gridlocked, people where pushing, and the bars that where serving drink where rammed full of people so we just had one. Paul and Ryan where shattered, and Tristan and Simon wanted some time alone leaving me and Alex alone together again. We got a drink together and chatted whilst he where propped and poked by members of the public as well as his mates, he was by far one of the hottest in the crowd! I waited with Alex for his bus, he's got a cookie addiction, it's such a shame he's got diabetes, such a lovely guy. I realise he's used to it, and it's a normal life but I just felt sorry for him, every so often checking your levels, counteracting it with a drug if you've had too much sugar, it's just not a nice way to live. We had a nice chat and he's got a lot going for him, starting a new job, and chairman of a certain committee. We had some things in common, including the same type of guys, but not in me, shame.

After an uncomfortable nights sleep in Tristan's car, we stumbled to get some breakfast. Me, Ryan and Paul had to sleep in the cars since Tristan's parents couldn't let us stay another night, so wasn't the most ideal plan, and I didn't feel too good in the morning. We went shopping as I ate whheey too much, full English breakfast, then a paste bake pot, then a smidge of a donut, I don't know where I put it all! I got a nice black and grey hoodie, although I had no money, and Paul also gave me a really nice top with the male logo on that he bought for me in turkey, is a great fit!

We left Brighton Sunday afternoon and headed to London, all pretty much sleeping on the train. Paul seemed to be dozing in and out, Ryan the same, and Simon was out the same as me. We pulled into London Bridge, where I said bye to everyone and headed to Simons (a different Simon) house party. It was a great time and some lovely friends that Simon has, although wasn't too pleased when I got mistaken for ‘help' since the majority of the people where over 30. Simon employed two younger people for the party to dish out food and drink. One of Simon's friends asked me if there were any more cava in the fridge, I firmly replied “yeah, it's in the fridge mate”, only realising what he had done, I almost felt embarrassed for him.

Simon let me DJ in the evening as most of us boogied uncontrollably into the next day. It was great of him to offer to stay the night, and although he did employ help, I helped out some of the night since Simon with about 50 people to entertain isn't easy! Anyway I really want to thank Simon to one of the best house parties I've ever been to. As I came home shattered thinking it where all over, Chris invited me for an evening out, which I hesitated but I'm so easily persuaded! after a night on the town, with some drinks, karaoke, and dancing, we got home at 5am this morning and after spending a day doing absolutely nothing, work doesn't seem such a chore!

So how was your weekend?
