Quite a weekend it was too in the end.
Dirty fairy was great fun on Thursday night as I said in my last post.
We ended up in XXL on Saturday, which was OK for a change, but I still prefer MegaWoof by far.
HorseMeatDisco was loadsa fun on Sunday though - drank way too much after getting there for 8pm and did not leave until after 2:30am - remember getting on the bus home, but not getting off it and walking home - nor do I remember eating the quiche from the fridge. Oh well.
Met a gang of people who have been to Burning Man a couple of times and I now have many extra survival tips and stores of how much fun the event is.
Only 5 months to wait! Yay!
Has an absolute ball at Dirty Fairy on Thursday night.
The music was great fun - a real mix of stuff.
As always, Jonny Woo’s outfit was…. erm…. how can I put this?… interesting, whilst also being practically non-existant. Think rubber pants with what appeared to be a latex cock protruding from the front, appropriately bad big hair, trashy makeup and a rather 70s beaded handbag.
Ronnie put in a typically dapper but surprise performance on the mic - who knew he could MC?
I used to enjoy Dirty Fairy and its trashy bonkersness but, as oft happens in clubland, it came to an end quite some time ago.
However, rumor has it that a relaunch is being considered….
Watch this space.
There were some serious shapes thrown, some big heels, bigger hair and a hell of a lot of booze drunk.
I was still hungover on Monday evening.
If you get chance to go to one of these events then do it!
Check your preconceptions at the door and have some fun.

I know it was last Saturday, but it is still worth a mention.
MegaWoof moved from Crash to superclub The Colosseum and it rocked!
I had a great night.
I knew the place was going to look great as I spent the afternoon in the venue putting up banners and decorations beforehand, but it looked even better full of people.
There was a real party atmosphere, the crowd was hot, the music was great, and while the venue is a lot cleaner than Crash it still kept its cruisy feel.
I think we are at the start of a new era for MegaWoof.
Bring it on!
The BBC seems to be full of interesting little articles at the moment.
Frankly, they are of better quality than a lot of their headline journalism - which seems to be more interested in entertainment than in quality news reporting. BBC take note - from your news reporting we want - shock horror and surprise - factual and accurate news reporting on events that happen, not public opinion on how they feel about the news.
In the meantime, click the BBC News logo to read their quirky article about the 29th February.
Little sis is OK, but the surgery did not work out as planned….
Turns out the location of the problem within her heart is such that the risks involved in completing the procedure as planned are greatly increased - unfortunately, they could not detemine this until they got in there.
She had agreed with the surgeon before they began that, if the problem was in this higher risk area, they would not proceed on this occasion.
She now has some decisions to make….
Decide to go again and proceed in the knowledge that the risks are increased during the surgery, but that the problem will be solved if successful.
Decide to not go again, but accept that the attacks will happen and that it will be hanging over her.
Not an enviable position, but I will fully support her whatever her decision.
I just want her to be OK.
She is my little sis after all.
OK .... So I don't live that high up anymore.
I moved. I miss the view loads, but I don't miss the stairs if the pissy lifts break, or some of the neighbours (see pissy lifts).
I kept the name 200feet cos I liked it - so sue me!
Plus some would say I have one or two views of my own - cue 200feet.com.

Randomness suggests....
Take all your bad feelings and push them down, all the way down, past your knees, until you're almost walking on them. And then you'll fit in, and you'll be invited to parties, and boys will like you...
