Friends, Free Food, Ferraris and Fighters

Well what a weekend I’ve had, I’m currently wearing a ‘going out’ shirt at work due to not having enough time to actually do any clothes washing yet

Had to get an early night on Friday to get up early on Saturday for a meeting the other side of London, I mentioned before that I was reading a book by a guy called Luigi Gratton, well he was at the meeting doing a presentation on eating healthy and nutrition, it was great, he had only a few hours in the country before going off to somewhere in Europe, he is a really friendly guy, I got to get his autograph and a photo with him and Dani (I’ll post it in a sec) Also got a photo of Dani in a Ferrari but that’s later

Then a whole group of us went out to dinner, Dani had qualified for a meal with a few of her group in Herbalife, I heard that it was free food so I got Dani to smuggle me in, it was also great, we talked, we laughed, some homeless guy selling roses tried to pull one of the partners, seriously Dani you picked the worst time to go to the loo, spaceships landed and we all went on a magic carpet ride okay so the last 2 didn’t happen but the homeless guy thing did

When we got back from the meal Dani wanted to sit in David’s Ferrari (He paid for the meal, he is also Dani’s sponsor in the biz, keep up) For some reason he left the keys in the car and Dani started revving the engine, it sounds just like you’d expect it would but better

The journey back took us through the heart of London (that’s right, on a Saturday night of all nights) we got to see all the sights at 1 in the morning and at a very slooooow pace, I think we got back in at about half 2 in the morning

So Sunday then, we got up late due to the half 2 thing, got ready and then off to see the Foo Fighters at the bowl in MK, it was packed to the brim (65,000 people) The support act were Jimmy Eat World and Biffy Clyro, both great, then Foo Fighters came on and they were awesome, their encore included a jam session with our old friend Seasick Steve (Vocals and lead Guitar) John Paul Jones (From Led Zeppelin on Guitar) and Dave Grohl (On Drums) mental, just mental

The Foos ended their encore (and in my opinion best show ever) with Everlong, with fireworks in the sky as well

Got back to the house at about 1 in the morning ready for Monday morning at work
