My cousin's boyfriend, Ben, had his 30th birthday on Saturday - it went off! Dim T dim sum with views of Tower Bridge in the background, followed by a limo ride to end all limo rides (we went up Kilburn High Road for Christ's sake - I'm sure that's not covered by the company's insurance) and ended up at Jewel for an intense hour of booze and stolen cupcakes. Great night cuz!!
No Ipod in the limo, so plans went from bringing a stack of CDs to me burning songs that we only had electronically onto a CD to recording a full 80 minute mix specifically for the big night!
In a way, and in different ways, this mix was more of an achievement for me than my infamous debut during the Ibiza House Warming - mainly because I had no preparation time and had to record a faultless mix in one sitting.
I was pretty happy with it - and so were the limo riders - and I gave the finished CD to Ben for his birthday - it was a success!!
To run a critical eye over it, I'd say it was a good effort, under time pressures, especially as I accidentally deleted the first run through! There were only a couple of misses on the transitions, but otherwise, I am happy with it.
And Ben loved it - and that means so much more!
Happy Birthday big fella!!
