Aidan Williams - High Acuity

At my flat we’ve always got someone staying in the spare room in the attic – usually one of our friends who’s just moved to London and we let them stay with us till they get a job and/or find a flat.

On Friday night after work I came back and met my brother-in-law’s brother Will who’s going to be staying with us at my flat for a few weeks. I took him and my flat mates back to the studios where I work and introduced them to my work colleagues.

After a few games of pool and a few drinks my 19 year old Australian work mate David, Will and myself set off home and ended up having to walk most of the way since we missed the last tube.

We arrived back at around 4am, Will went to bed upstairs and David slept in my bed with me. The next morning Chorna was coming to visit me since we hadn’t seen each other in a while and was going to surprise me and my flat mate let her in – expecting to find me in bed with another girl, she opened the door to my room, saw David and myself in bed together wearing nothing but my boxers and David in nothing but his tighty-whities. With the funniest shocked look on her face she shouted “Oh my god!!”, walked out of the room and closed the door. I started sarcastically shouting “Chooorna!” a few times and she finally came back in, and didn’t look at either of us, so I said “David, Chorna, Chorna, David… David and I have been having lots of sex together.”. Chorna said “I bet you have! I’m going to go and say hi to the guys upstairs!” and left.

It’s really annoying that she completely missed David putting on the most camp voice you’ve ever heard and saying “Oh who’s this, Aidan? You didn’t tell me about this?? Who’s this b*tch!?”.

Funniest Saturday morning ever… Although I think what I found even more funny was when I spoke to my dad on the phone later that morning, told him the story and he said “Well, supposedly everyone in London is bisexual these days.” And I think he was fishing, so I replied “No, Dad, I’m really not, don’t worry.”.

After doing some work I spent the rest of Saturday morning at Borough market with the other David I know and Chorna, where I bought bagels, brie and coffee. David and I spent the rest of the day at his house cooking (or he cooked and I mostly watched and ate). I watched ‘Slither‘ with his flat mates while drinking South African cider. Slither is absolutely classic and perfect brain candy.

As Allah waters his creation, may he also sprinkle his wonderous blessings over you and your family. Have a nice Eid, dude.

Last weekend I got to see my niece for the first time – she was two and a half weeks old and so beautiful! My sister handed her to me and she slept in my arms for half an hour before waking up and stretching her arms and legs out and showing her deep blue eyes.

My sister and I spent about half an hour in the dark putting her to bed and chatting – she was so cute sleeping!

Anyway…

This weekend we had another crazy party at my flat, this time to celebrate my flat mate Mark’s birthday. I think at one point we had roughly 70 people in the house and despite how crazy it got and the fact that it went on from 6pm on Saturday to 10am on Sunday morning, there were absolutely no casualties, not too much mess and every had a fantastic time! Really great night, good music and excellent company.

Brilliant new advert - the streets are his turntables.
