DITL 20/07/2012
My first official DITL with a massive 77 pictures (but cut from the 156 that I took).
As midnight rolls round I was about halfway through re-watching The Dark Knight, watched 5 of the 6 Batman movies (gave Batman & Robin a miss) this week in preparation for the new movie.
After Dark Knight I peruse comedic websites, this video will ruin every 3D movie you ever see.
It's coming up to 2 before I shut down.
And listen to The Bugle podcast on my very old mp3 player because my Ipod won't sync with my new laptop and so I can't access it in anyway until I visit my Mother.
Time to get up, I work in the evening so this is early for me.
I'm not happy about it.
Who says Vegans don't have much choice, nowadays I have two types of milk whereas before I'd only have one!
Just time to read a bit of classic noir over my porridge.
Obligatory hygiene shot.
And I'm at Festival Leisure Park in my home town of Basildon by about 9.15
Because of this!
I'm very excited about it!
This is my amazed face, it's AMAZING.
As I get home I notice that a business card has fallen out the free newspaper and is sat outside my house on the doormat.
Surely the definition of irony. (This picture is also a reminder that I need to clean my porch, I swear it doesn't look that bad irl)
I immediately post my Dark Knight Rises thoughts on facebook to annoy my friends who are seeing it tomorrow (I was busy so went alone), complete with fake spoilers. Veronica Lake seems to find me amusing at least.
I enter into a fake spoiler conversation with the only other guy I know who's seen it already.
Time for a spot of lunch, though delicious it's not easy to make tomato soup look exciting.
Then I do some work, I'm redecorating my house and am currently moving my bedroom so I can decorate that room. This is most of my books and magazines ready to be sorted through.
I have the day of work today and so I shower/shave and dress for a night out.
I manage to get the train station just in time to see my train to London leaving. Luckily only a 20 minute wait for the next one but I didn't bring my ipod or a book with me.
I make a detour into Paperchase on Tottenham Court Road to buy a birthday card.
Sit sown quickly outside a cafe to write said card (I nicknamed feebomon F-bomb).
I arrive only 15 minutes late to the Detroit Bar in Covent Garden and the birthday girl looks surprisingly happy to see me!
Perhaps because she could see I had presents, she's very happy with her vegan sausage (and money towards a laptop/sewing machine).
pernickety with a very civilised looking drink.
pernickety dons my civilised fedora to go with her civilised cocktail.
Ant and his girlfriend Karriann arrive.
feebomon is the only one aware that I'm taking a picture, the birthday girl shows her maturity.
And I show mine as I lap at my cocktail (2 for 1 happy hour, I had no choice but to double fist it).
For some reason I now have a face drawn on my nipple.
Ant and I visit the toilets.
We feel much better now.
And come back to CAKE! Apparently cake cutting is very funny.
And deserves applause
feebomon is happy with all her cocktails and is not trying to drink one through her nose.
Matt banged on the table and a glass exploded, it didn't fall over it just shattered. Hulk Smash.
One moment Fee is very excited about her drinks...
The next not so much.
Then happy again!
Happy hour was finishing so we have 4-6 drinks each.
You wouldn't believe how difficult it is to drink through the face on your nipple.
Every one points at Pauls jam jar drink.
A rare lovely picture of Paul and Natbat.
It kind of looks like Ant has nail polish here...
We decide it's time to do 'intense faces' for the camera.
Karriann neglects to take part.
I'm not sure what that is...
Sadly I have to go to the loo alone this time.
I attempt to drink all 6 drinks at once.
Miryana arrives and joins in watching the interesting and funny thing that is happening off camera.
Ant and I sing to each other, I'm not sure Karriann is impressed.
Even less so now!
Karriann and pernickety go to the toilet together too.
It's surprisingly difficult to drink with interwoven arms.
I get my toilet buddy back!
Feeling refreshed we nail the interwoven arm drinking.
No comment.
Even less comment.
We do duck face ironically, do I look like I'm getting in the middle of this relationship?
I try harder.
I appear to be licking Ants beard.
I lost a waving competition.
It's a fair punishment.
Matti arrives very late into the evening.
As the birthday girl she's perfectly able to get away with such behaviour.
Matt tries to leave and I don't let him.
Now that we mastered through the arms drinking we have to move on to other limbs.
Karriann did sit on my lap of her own free will and with her boyfriends acceptance I promise!
I think I may have just said something rude...
Midnight came soon after, too soon as it meant I missed my train home. Thanks again to pernicketyfor letting me crash over at yours :)
