Happy face

In early December 2001, I went to see Fatboy Slim at Fort Canning Park with Mark, Kristen, and Derek. There I met a drunk Scottish guy in a kilt.

Turns out the drunk Scottish guy (in a kilt) and I got on famously and we’ve been together ever since. In an amazing coincidence, Fatboy Slim is playing in Swindon tonight, almost exactly ten years on (give or take a few days). There’s no way we can pass this up, even though we’re much too old to be going to a duk-duk night.

Fatboy Slim!

I thought it was brilliant when Ben Folds played in Glasgow on my birthday in 2007, but this is quite unbelievable timing. Other couples may go out for a nice meal and buy each other presents on anniversaries — we’re, er, lucky enough to relive our youth. Heh.
