After a quick reviving shower we changed into our party dresses and headed out to the Chinese to meet up with the gang and were joined by Nikki and her sister (who had the same dirty laugh and vibrant personality) and her hubby. The restaurant was fairly quiet for a Saturday so the service was extra good, after about half an hour we noticed that June from Ireland was in with Penny and Deirdre who was looking really well - she had just 'come out' to her father and it had gone really well for her so she was very happy. We hadn't expected June to be at Sparkle so it was a nice surprise to see her - but she was equally gutted at the loss of our dancing facilities (she is our dance teacher).
After our meal with the usual chatter and banter we got ready to nip over to the Rembrant where Marianne had arranged to put on some live music. It was absolutely teaming down by this time and we nipped back to our apartments to get our umbrellas and gave Nikki a quick tour. The Rem was packed but the music and atmosphere were very good and we just about got a seat well Di and I shared a seat between us! I was delighted to get a chance to chat to Vikki who is Mariannes other half and she was looking really well having just gotton back from a "European Road Trip". After a couple of 'Sex In the Cities' the cocktail of the day we decided to move on to Napoleans but it was absolutely packed out and NewYork was the same. By this time the rain was very heavy so we decided to run for home (well back to the apartment!)
The cocktails had kicked in by then and we were so tired we just watched a film and went to bed!!
Memorable moment - the goth in transparent underwear leading a gorgeous 'slave' girl who was dressed in a lovely black and white dress complete with a spiky black collar as they passed us soaked to the skin she bade us a very cheery 'Good Evening'!!
