Weekend was most certainly NOT as planned!

Well after an excellent Friday the weekend slowly unravelled itself :o(

Saturday started OK with mum and Sophie taking the kids out and then Toni, Sam and I shipping out to the lightbulb cafe for a big breakfast. We then came back and chilled and watched some Vampire Diaries until mum and Sophie returned.

Toni and I went and dyed out hair ready for heading to London for the Nosferatu gig. Just before we were about to go Toni had a call that meant that we had to cancel plans for going to the gig as there was a chance Nick might have to go to hospital and Gemima would need picking up. Toni also had to sleep off a couple of glasses of wine first so we ended up driving back to Eltham at 2am just in case she got another call in the night (Jade and her friend Lucy were on standby pending us getting back to London)!

After getting back to Eltham and making sure that everything was OK we managed to get a little sleep. Toni then got an early morning call from Gail saying that she needed to go to hospital. We quickly got dressed and then rushed over to Gail's and waited for the ambulance to arrive.

The rest of the day was spent at King's Hospital with Gail. Fortunately it didn't seem to be anything too serious and although they decided to keep her in for observations overnight we at least managed to leave knowing that she was settled and stable. As we'd not had a chance to eat we then headed to the O2 to grab some food at Franky and Bennie's. We were treated to hordes of Rhianna fans while we were there (as she was gigging that night). They were certainly interesting to watch if nothing else.

Suitably stuffed we then headed back to Toni's. The plan had been to attend the Sisters Of Mercy gig at The Roundhouse but sadly Toni was completely knackered and just wasn't up for it and I was flagging fast too so the decision was made to skip that which was a real bummer :o(  I could have gone on my own but really didn't fancy it and despite last ditch efforts couldn't find anyone who wanted to come with me.

To pass the time while Toni slept I kept an eye on the Edinburgh Capitals v Belfast Giants score. That didn't really cheer me up much either with them losing 2 - 8!!!!

Ho hum, NOT a weekend that went well at all really (1 potential hospital case, 1 hospital case and 2 missed gigs) but I guess these things are sent to try us. Hopefully the universe might start smiling on us a little bit this week otherwise I think Toni's brain might just melt!
