Three nights + two concerts + one very sexy man = The Perfect Weekend!
Great music, great dancing and even greater company! Definitely a weekend to remember. My first girlie weekend away with Tanja and our first concert together –it’s hard to say which of the two of us is more bonkers so I’m going to go with equal.
Friday night was our first concert of the weekend, and also Mark’s birthday making it that little bit more special than other nights. It was the one night I would be so glad not to be sat front row though as Nicky kindly covered them in champagne. The medley as always was the best part of the concert – I think it always will be.
Saturday was shopped and relaxed. Didn’t get dressed till about 11am, that happens sometimes at home – but staying lounging on the bed watching tele till that time of day doesn’t happen! So it was novel! Shopping was fun, bought myself some pretty new maternity tops and comfy shoes... my shoes and heels hurt in the ones I was wearing! In the evening we dressed up pretty and went for yummy Mexican food, but we passed on going for a drink for the option lying on bed in our pyjama’s. Although perhaps Tanja’s motivation was to see eurovision – whereas I was being lazy.
Sunday my third and final concert of the 2010 tour and what a night it was. The best night of all three I think – perhaps being 12
th row helped. Or the fact that I was completely and utterly hyper. For the first time we made it through the support acts – purely because we were too lazy to walk all the way back up the stairs. WOW – made me feel anything but wowed, they mimed badly and only half of the group appeared to be able to dance – you NSYNC wannabes. Second and last (thankfully) was ‘Wonderland’, managed by Kian and his wife is one of the singers – pretty much says it all really. I wasn’t impressed, I found they screeched a bit too much for my liking and apart from Jodi there dancing skills were somewhat lacking. Not my cup of tea.
Then finally it was Westlife time, they finally made it onto the stage twenty minutes late but all was forgiven. We sang, we cheered and we danced. Shane forgot his lines, Mark forgot to hold the microphone close enough, and Kian and Nicky almost sang when it wasn’t there turn but it all just added to the fun. I can’t remember the last time I danced so much and I can say I am glad I wore comfy shoes. My feet were probably the only part of me that wasn’t acting by the end of the night – those stairs to get out nearly killed me. It was hard to remember there were four people on the stage because it was impossible to drag my eyes away from Mr Filan. Poor Kian was doing his speech but I have no idea what he was saying because Shane bent over right in front of me... perfect view of his cute behind! Another distracted was that ‘low cut’ top he wore for the medley ... chest hair is all I need to say,
I had a truly incredible weekend and if my madness hasn’t scared Tanja we definitely have to do it again next tour!
Being a teenager for the night ROCKS!!
