Half-moving to London... TODAY!

[ciphergoth]

Summary: I'm moving in with kitty_goth today! I plan to spend roughly alternate fortnights in London and Edinburgh. This is so that I can experience the joys of both cities as much as possible, and so that I can spend more time with all three of my main partners: purplerabbits in Edinburgh, and ergotia and lilithmagna in London. It will probably also mean I get to see more of sweetie kboyd in Cambridge. This is possible because I work from home, so I can even work on the train between the two cities. Kitty already has broadband, so I'll barely miss a moment of connectivity...

This is the fourth plan I've made to this end. Moving in with kitty_goth in the flat owned by bootpunk was the first, but at one stage that didn't seem possible. The second was moving in with ergotia and lilithmagna, but there were delays in the room I planned to take becoming free, and I started to feel I'd rather fix their kitchen first before moving in. The third was lolliepopp, sweinhodge, ajva and I all getting a shared place in Leytonstone, but landlord-fucking-about put paid to that. Now me and Kitty have resolved the hurdles in the original plan and we're back on!

So I'm getting a lunchtime train to London today, meeting up with Kitty at Kings Cross, and picking up the keys. I'm planning on staying in London this visit for just under a fortnight, leaving on Tuesday 11 March. ergotia and I are hoping to make Tenebrae on Friday, where it seems a lot of people will be.

It's going to be so very cool. I'm looking forward to living with kitty_goth a lot, it's a lovely flat about ten minutes walk from the Slimelight, and I'm going to see so much more of so many of you!

UULP: laughing out loud, everyone should read adjectivemarcus's answers to the "I am, I think, I know" meme.

As long as you get there early you can get seats and thus have room to dance. I don't think we really go for the posing or cruising - we tend to just dance. I think the music is probably more to our taste than yours; maybe that's the difference.

I don't think it's the music so much as clubbing habits, really. You tend to get really into the music and don't seem to be that bothered if not much conversation goes on (I think - just my humble impression), whereas I get a bit hacked off after a while if I can't talk to people. I suspect the same to be true of ergotia too.

Yes, you're right - I go to the pub in order to talk to people, I go clubbing in order to dance. Which is why I rarely enjoy clubs when I don't like the music, and rarely enjoy pubs where the music's too loud to hear conversation.

I certainly don't think of Duckie as a place to have conversations in. :)

I couldn't possibly agree more.

Pub - chat / games
Club - music & dance

And, ideally - no TV's should be present in either.
