Everyone seems to have had a shit week - myself included for reasons I need not go into but Friday evening, Saturday and today were most definately not shit (for the most part anyway).
Friday I headed upto London to meet Steph and James who were kind enough to put up with my company and give me a lift to Leeds for the TDON alldayer. We stopped over night at Steph's Mum's. She's a lovely woman, she gave us all easter eggs before we left.
We headed upto Leeds on Saturday and it was a great great day. I got to see people who I haven't seen for a while and hang out and have chats and meet some ace new people and have more chats. Unfortunately MTL didn't play, but the bands were ace. Especially DIO. It's a shame that plans didn't go as thought as far as post show hang outs but life has a habit of getting in the way of itself. Also disappointed not to see someone there but lets not go into that.
Sav was kind enough to put us up for the night in Hudds. Ash, Dan, Nick, Mike, Ollie, Frankie, Jenny (obvs) were all also there as well as a couple of others. After a lengthy and amusing conversation in the kitchen Steph and I decided to crash out early. We woke up pretty late considering too.
Sav gave James, Steph and I a lift back to Joe's Well where we'd left the car and we said goodbye and thanks there and went to hunt for food. We left Leeds around 3:30, the journey back to London was okay, hit traffic a few times but that's how it goes. I got back here around 10:15.
All in all, I had a wicked time even if I didn't see everyone I was hoping to and not everytihng went as I hoped it would. It was nice to see people again, meet new people, watch bands, chill out and justkick back really. Thanks to Steph for driving, her Mum for putting me up, James for the DJing (haha), Faz, Ant, Paris for looking looking after my passport, the soundguy, Josh LTA for being a star and lending his drum stands, Kam, Dom, and Sav for the shirts and letting us stay.
