Weekend

[vyvyanx]

It's been a good couple of days. On Friday evening, went to the launch of the Cambridge Revolution vodka bar, with G, robinbloke, _catharine_ and the delightful uisgebeatha, who I hadn't met before. Drank many excellent vodka-based drinks (Parma violet vodka! Wow!), did unseemly things with L :-), and generally had a splendid time.

Last night, I went to the Arts Picturehouse's all-night screening of Alien, Aliens and Alien 3. Apparently this was the first all-nighter in Cambridge in 15 years (so what happened in 1992, hmm?) and was brought about with help from nickovs and Alex van Someren (though I didn't spot them there). There were intervals in between the films, in which everyone surged to the bar, and the creperie were still serving after the final film (so I found myself eating a delicious asparagus, mushroom and cheese crepe for breakfast at 6.50am today). A photo was taken of all the "survivors" in the auditorium afterwards, and will apparently go up on the APH myspace page soon. (This reminded me a bit of May Balls, actually!) Filmwise, it was really cool to see all three back to back. I hope they run further all-nighters in future.

you're brave! sounds like a cool experience. i saw star wars 4-6 over the course of a day, which was quite good. i like the idea of getting crepes for late breakfast! :)

You think 6.50am is late breakfast for a Sunday! Gosh... :-)

well i was meaning more as in late saturday breakfast! but when i go to finland, with the time zone change, we have breakfast in the hotel at 6, which is a bit of a shock to the system!
