Woke up to a phone call from the lurvely Meghan! YAY! Arranged to meet at the PNE a bit later on.
Grabbed a coffee and got a cab (Taxis are dirt cheap in Vancouver we thought) to the PNE- We’d missed B&K (Ha!) but saw A&P, FP&M, L&T, D&S…etc etc… Big surprise of the session was D&V doing Spente Le Stelle . We gave A&Ps new OD the ‘Tiffin’ seal of approval.
Also met Meghan, her hubby Dave and their Belgian friend Fab. Had a good time and cheered at practically everyone.
Also met my delirious sweer Blader friend Connie!!! YAY!!! She was staying at the house of another Blader. Was really pleased to see Connie and was dying to have a laugh with her and the bladers as some of us chatted in the past, but Connie informed me that one of them positively hates me, thinks Im evil and nasty and basically my little meaningless existence completely pisses her off. This is good, next time I feeling all insignificant about stuff, Im going to just remember that I arouse such passionate feelings in someone who lives thousands of miles away!! Yay me! So funny and so PML innit?!- Whatever I have said about B&K and rabid fans has always been a bit of a mad joke and I thought anyone with an ounce of intelligence would have been able to see that- But evidently not.! She does have FSU in her ‘favourite’ bookmarks though- PML!!! Guess what I said about some B&K fans is true! Yay! I am angel of perfect TECHNIK and PSYCHIK.
As POLTIK was not allowing Connie to hang out with us- I invited her to stay at our hotel on Tuesday and she agreed (with some trepidation of the wrath to come LOLOLOL) She also gave us the Worlds Commemorative Bag she had made which I still need to return to her, but more on that later.
When we left it was pouring with rain and there was not a cab in sight, Meghan, Dave and Fab caught a bus back downtown but we hung back and went into a hotel called the Atrium Inn to originally get a cab but then we discovered it had a bar where we could smoke! YAY! Stayed there ages and only left when we did because we had to get back to the Delta to meet some other crazy delirious types.
Got in the Delta Bar where the first people we met were Laurie (Skatesand) and Julie O from the Yags Board. Someone else (Jenny) said this about these lovely ladies and I’m going to steal her comment- Its so nice to meet superfans of a skater who can also talk objectively about their favourite and other skaters too. Fabulous people! Meghan, Dave and Fab also turned up with her husband Rik. The delirious Sue Murphy, Tara , me and Mands and Emma and a friend of hers – Was there anyone else? If so sorry! LOL.
After a while we made it over to the Hyatt for some more drinks. Found out that Meghan and Dave had lost their luggage so we bitched all in good fun about how hateful Canada was LOLOL – Also kept running out for cigarettes. Don’t think we saw many skaters if any that night, but did see the fabulous Anna from Athens who I delivered to Laurie.
Good night- Found out that Meghans hubby Dave was rather pukka- More about him later in the week INNIT!
Bed about 1-2amish? LOL
