Much further than the distance between the mall/station and the bar... and I still got lost.'We're learning songs for baby Jesus' birthday. His mum and dad were Merry and Joseph. He had a bed made of clay and the three kings bought him Gold, Frankenstein and Merv as presents.'

damn. I remember talking to SOMEONE about the bars we were near of.. but maybe that was waaaayyyy before we went out.
and yeah, the noisiness of the first bar was the reason for our departure."Don't be faint-hearted, I have a solution! We shall go and commandeer some small craft, then drift at leisure until we happen upon another ideal place for our waterside supper with riparian entertainments."0 -
