A short trip to the seaside
Oct. 9th, 2008 04:58 pmConnotations was so much fun. Spending time with like minded people is one of the best pick me ups. I got there late Friday, sat in the bar till even later, then got up at 8 for a run on the beach!
new_kate and
daegaer got up with me and came down to the beach and watched from a safe distance. Running on beaches is my new favourite thing, it was just awesome and, yes, BRACING.
I caught a couple of panels, one on rps, then we braved the rain and went to spend money in the fleshpots of Tynemouth, and eat cake. Saturday night was the moderately tidy dinner, then the vid show that included the truly frightening Shatner 'interpretation' of Rocket Man. We all got up for another run on Sunday, then mostly hung around chatting until it was time to for me and
new_kate to haul ourselves away in the afternoon.
I've been a bit poorly since I got back, with something the doctor suspects is a urinary tract infection. Joy. So I've been drinking lots of water and have also taken a couple of days off work.
Anyway, I have photos:
( The Haunted Lido )
( The 'ironing board' )
( Cake remains )
( Satan's dressing table )
( Daegaer's feet )
( On the beach )
( Surf's up )
( Squinting at the camera )
