An awesome weekend!

Yep, pretty much what it says on the tin here. I had an awesome weekend!
First off, Da Boy and the rest of his band appeared live on a show called the Friday Night Gerbil on BBC Radio Shropshire. And they totally and utterly rocked!
Seriously, I know I'm biased but they sounded fantastic. Da Boy had to do a 10 second drum solo for a feature and they did four songs live, each and every one of which was awesome. I was so proud!
Then they had a photo shoot on Saturday with a good friend of mine, the afore mentioned James Melia from a previous post on here. He is just fantastic and we're even going to see if he can do the pictures for our wedding. He's not a wedding photographer, more lifestyle and model / bands but he has just such a unique, fantastic style that I know he'll take photos for us to cherish forever.
Anyway, back to the band shoot. He took some while they were running through their set for a gig that night in their practice barn before heading outside to take some more on the rather industrial farmyard outside, which was full of metal storage containers, skips, iron shells of old buildings, piles of tyres etc. But the photos were just amazing. A few might appear on www.jamesmelia.net so keep an eye out!
The boys then had a gig that night and went down a storm with the crowd. Both Da Boy and me were driving so there was no alcohol involved, yet we both still had a great time.
Then (and this just capped the whole awesome weekend off), me and my housemate S spent yesterday at Chester Zoo with James and his girlfriend before they headed off back home up north. It was so much fun, I totally loved it.
Da Boy is away camping with some friends in Cornwall until Wednesday and, as much as I love, cherish, adore and will miss him loads, that means a whole two days of Supernatural-watching, chocolate-eating and girlie-chatting without him here to complain!
The only downside was the horrible migraine I had this morning when I woke up, having spent much of the night wide awake and being sick, but that's finally starting to ease off now.
So, all in all, things are pretty good right now.
