'It's all coming back to me now...'

A weekend that will be difficult to top in the near future.

Friday night: London for a friend's birthday at a club where you just belt out power ballads all night and ham it up with all your friends. Came home with an inflatable punk's head, drawing attention on the mean streets of Seven Sisters.

Saturday: Post Sicily wedding garden party for Gemma and Ben. Several marquees, jacket potato oven, industrial sized tubs of Haribo, ice cream freezer, Chinese lantern nearly setting tree ablaze, hog roast, great friends, chocolate fondue, Portaloo queues, fantastic hosting skills. Great night.
