Some of the club things on, that have caught our eye that we may get out to, if we’re not too clubbed out from Berlin…

The red ones we made it to.

Hello I’m still alive…

So we left London on Sunday 5th September, and went to Barcelona (Spain) for four days, and had a lovely relaxing time, ate lots of great tapas and paella, and just hung around the La Ramblas area where we stayed. We did all the sights and tourist stuff last time we were in Barcelona, so didn’t feel too guilty doing very little this time. We were due to fly back home to Sydney from there on the Thursday 9th September.

However… We decided to extended our holiday by a few days, change our flights, and return to London, so on the Thursday (9th September) we could see Ricky Gervais perform his live show ‘Science’ at the Hammersmith Apollo, very funny, not much new material, but I’m really happy I’ve seen him live, after being a fan for so many years. Plus, train up to Manchester on the Friday, and return to London on the Saturday for these excellent gigs below, and most important, we could see and party with our London friends one more time.

10.09.10 : Sandwell District, Joey Beltram + More @ Colour Presents… – Sankeys – Manchester
11.09.10 : Surgeon, Shed [Live] + More @ We Fear Silence & Deadly Rhythm Present… Shed ‘The Traveller’ Album Launch – Cable – London

So, after leaving Cable, we went back to our friends place in West Hamstead, sorted out our baggage, I mixed it up on the decks for a couple of hours, playing morning come-down tunes. 9am Sunday morning arrived quickly, and then we were in a taxi heading to Heathrow for our flights home.

Arrived in Sydney Monday 13th September at night, stressed out, sleep deprived, after a couple of rough flights full of screaming kids and babies. It’s taken me over a week, to get my mind and body back into the AU time-zone.

What a fantastic holiday! Now the post-holiday depression kicks in…
