August 2008 Archives

It feels longer than two weeks since I last wrote my blog! So much has gone on.

I'll start with two weeks ago when I had my first weekend off in ages!

Was so nice to go back to my home in London and see my nephew Louie, who aged just one, as well as all my friends.

We went out in Hoxton for my friend Carla's birthday in Hoxton Square, where it rained all day!

A few drinks turned into a drunken escapade to my friend Sam's, where we all got naked and danced to music videos on Youtube then somehow managed to all get covered in banana!

Odd but very funny.

Her French male neighbours could see us dancing and we made friends with them. We all ended up breaking into Hoxton Square park about 3am and sat on old blankets drinking til the sun came up!

(So much for a weekend off).

Last Wednesday I flew to Dubai where I was DJing on the Thursday at the amazing Chi (Lodge) and I had the best few days.

Dubai was 38 degrees but the nightlife is cool and I met one of my favourite DJ's, Paolo Mojo - see the photo of me looking very drunk and dishevelled at his gig on the Friday.

Lovely guy.

Flew back Saturday, and I was DJing in Cardiff on Saturday night. On Sunday I did a one-off show on Kerrang! with the lovely OJ Borg.

My friend Bradley came over Sunday evening and cooked me a roast dinner (not had one since about 1986!) Yummy!

This week I've got three training sessions in the gym with my kickboxer trainer Wayne as I'm off on my holidays soon!

This morning I had my tattoo lasered again at the SK:N clinic - it's soooooo painful but it#s fading a lot now so won't be long 'til its gone!

I'm DJing at Manchester Pride this weekend then back to London to see all my family, and on Sunday I'm going away for two weeks.

But I'll tell you about my adventures in my next blog in two weeks' time.

Until then, lots of love...

I'm writing this blog and the time is 1:17am - I should be asleep but my body clock is all over the place!

I guess I'm over-tired - the last two weeks summed up in one word would be 'Hectic!'

My own club night 'Wot Party?' had its second party on Thursday 24th July at The Source Bar in Maidstone, and the brilliant Funkagenda played for us. He's one of my favourite DJs to watch.

Then I flew to Spain for the weekend to DJ, and see my good friends who live there.

Got back late Sunday, did Kerrang! Radio Drive Monday and Tuesday, then flew to the Greek Islands for two gigs Wednesday and Thursday night.

Flew back Friday to London, then straight back out to Spain again to DJ Friday night at Dreamers in Marbella.

Saturday and Sunday I had off, so stayed with friends in Espana and partied. Went to Nikki Beach for the first time and it was the best beach party I've ever been to.

Amazing!

Back at Kerrang now for the next two weeks, training hard at the gym for my holiday to Ibiza in September!

I took my good friend Alison Hammond (who I was in Big Brother 3 with) to train with me and my personal trainer Wayne last week.

It was really funny. She was trying to do the exercises I was doing. We were all in giggles - but she's since been to see Wayne on her own and loves working out as well!

This weekend my gig in Slovenia got cancelled, which means I've a weekend off so I'm going to spend it in the studio making a follow-up track to my first EP 'Screw You'.

I'm very excited, I love producing tunes as much as DJing out. My friends are coming up from London tonight, too, so we're going for dinner at the lovely Italian restaurant Cielo.

I'm looking forward to eating lots of yummy pasta and catching up with the girls ...

Speak soon!
