Aberdeen & Inverness

Wednesday's Aberdeen
After having been stuck on a train for 2.5 hours on a ride that should be 1 hour, it was nice to see cute garden gnomes and Victoria Park

Lounger Dave
Path to Pizza
On our way to Dave's for pre-drinks, river-pose
Champagne bubbles
On our way to Brew Dog
Great scenery on the way!
Dan had to be rather patient...
Lion break!
In town!

In Brew Dog playing who's there!
Trashy Blonde
Then we went to two clubs, one trendy, another called Origin, they looked the same to me!
Thursday
After a breif night's sleep, we went to a closed funfair...
but an open arcade, played a 2 pence game for an hour...
Minty
Then I said tata to Dan and hello to Inverness!
Here at Leakey's bookshop/ café
The river, had dinner at The Kitchen on the other side
The den
Keep going! onto another bar!
Hootamany's
Rock n' roll!
Until we got kicked out and had to walk home!

Great to discover Scotland when everything's tiny,
no distances to travel, but new places to see!

Oy vey!

In need of rehab à la Scandinavian purity or a cozy Wetherspoon sesh.
Dad's livingroom and Kirsty's feet underneath 'our favourite' table at Wetherspoon's:
Last night was "rufff"! Our gig at the Doghouse was rather successful, although I'm really looking forward to having a drummer with us on stage, they do so much to lift a song up, make it feel lighter or heavier, miss the bass too - simply looking forward to having a full band playing again!
We had a rider of 12 cans which is a freakin' lot for two people during a 8-12 sitting. Chris made me print an emailing list, our first fan was also called Isabella and said I was "so beautiful" she "couldn't stop staring" at me (?)...
I had five Guinness' and then went to the flat party in flat 6. Where I met up with Annuka, and then Kenny, a potential drummer appeared again! I stole booze and got hammered (WTF, Isabella?).
Last night did not cost me a nickel, dime or penny. It was quite the enjoyable night, and all the lovely flat regulars where there. I did not bring my camera but Annuka caught a lot of the action on her new fish eye camera, we'll see how they turn out.

Today I woke up with a strange kind of crampish pain in my legs that intensified as I walked, as blood flowed into them. Fucking odd. Thankfully, I almost feel normal. What does this tell me - never make yourself a full English breakfast 4am in the drunken morning to eat before you go to bed!

Today I am going to do nothing but study and clean and go for walks. Tomorrow morning 5am I am going surfing, so tonight really..
