Past few days

Went to Newcastle on Wednesday and finished work early so pottered around town a bit and then met up with sheeshkebab for a few hours, then I headed home. Southampton on Thursday, and Blackburn today. At least it was a local job, but we didn't finish until gone 5. Thankfully the drive home wasn't too bad. I've done somewhere around 800 miles this week.

Bah. Flying lesson cancelled tomorrow. Got on on Sunday instead but with a different instructor. I'm not yet sure how I feel about that, but I shall see how it goes.

For once I have a free weekend. Who wants me?

Garden of Delights

There's an event in Platt Fields park this afternoon/evening called the Garden of Delights.
From an AIM conversation with dineleeeee who went yesterday:


(11:27:29) dineleeee: ah, I went to the garden of delights last night. it was pretty damn spectacular
(11:27:46) dineleeee: i'd suggest you come down if you're free. it's the last one they;re running for a while
(11:45:41) MattP: I think I might, but don't know much abot the event. What happens there?
(11:45:59) dineleeee: um. its all based round the lake at platt fields
(11:46:04) dineleeee: £1 entry fee and a programme
(11:46:20) dineleeee: lots of performing arts. sculptures and random art type installations throughout the park
(11:46:30) dineleeee: some performances and things. generally a really cool day out
(11:46:39) dineleeee: from 12 midday to 11pm at night (Where it gets better)
(11:46:59) MattP: sounds like fun. I shall attempt to rally a few people up.
(11:47:06) dineleeee: yeah, good idea
(11:47:14) dineleeee: i'm surprised more people haven't heard of it and bothered to go

Platt Fields park is in Fallowfield on Oxford Road. You can see the lake where I filmed the introspective bit for the documentary last October. Map located at http://tinyurl.com/bpu6g

So, does anyone want to come along? I can offer a lift to anyone in the Stockport area (or en route) if that'll be of any help? Ask me nicely and I might even drive further afield :-)
