    Hi everyone! I trust you all got obliterated over the course of the night... Shame Emmi didn't get to witness me singing again, maybe next time! Neil was the tits. Shame there were a few tossers in the crowd our end.

    And I'll say it again... THANK YOU HELEN!!!! :):D

    oh bugger, I missed singing.. :o ah well, next time indeed. :D

    I wish you'd all been there to see me scrambling around to try and find a disabled toilet in the shopping mall towards the end of the night. I was going up to security guards going 'They're all fucking locked! Why? What's with this radar key scheme? What if you don't HAVE a fucking radar key? I'm not even sure if I have my house keys' *drunkenly searches pockets* And then one of them said 'Well hold in five minutes, I've just sent someone to find out.' And I said 'Can they also find out if I can get a larger bladder as well?'

    :D

    :D:D:D

    :D I'm joking... you still have a shred of dignity left... besides you've got nothing on Simon
    Oh Simon was sooooo funny :D
    'Sarah, do you want Jager?'
    'Nah, thanks'
    'Sarah... you want Jager'
    'Nah, I'm alright, Simon'
    'No...Sarah...you want Jager..'
    'Thanks, but I'm ok'
    'Sarah...here's your Jager...'

    :D:D:D

    Someone asked me what Jager looked and tasted like the other day.. I couldn't remember.

    PS. I'm at work and I can't concentrate! :D

    I decided to do the sensible thing and leave while I still had SOME of my faculties so I didn't end up sleeping in a gutter :D

    but yes, I remember. I got the tube, nearly had a fight with the guy at the barrier when it swallowed my ticket and he called me a fare-dodger. Let's just say the sentences "Don't treat me like a fucking criminal" and "I'm not drunk so go and shove your fluorescent coat up your arse" were used :p shocking state of affairs...

    I'm surprised I made it home. jager makes me rowdy.


    but you do remember us pm-ing right???? :D
    i'm not happy yet.....

    I'm just glad it wasn't me for a change :o
    Haha, was he really that bad? actually, I don't even care. I'm just glad I wasn't the worst :D

    ah... simon... how much money did he spend on Jager for all of us on saturday? must have been an obscene amount. good as reason as any too have a reconvening session. I think we all owe him about 10 drinks.

    Oh aye, I was vaguely sobered up by that point :D disgusting rancid takeaway tends to have that effect. Why is it that you just crave salt and fat when drunk and then in the morning you regret it more than the drinking itself??!

    Ha, you're not kidding. I went to look for the toilets, and wandered over the dance floor, I suddenly stopped and looked around me and thought "ok, looks like I've wandered into the Blue Oyster Bar....I'll just head back the way I came........quickly"!! :D
    I came, I saw, I concurred.....

    Back from where... the embracing arms of Mark and Simon?? :D

    Edit: Is 'embracing arms' redundant?

    yeah soupy, chin up lad! :) you should definitely plan something out there. it'll be easier for you to pull of rather than me, for example, I know NO Finnish Pearl Jam fans. :(

    I don't really remember it being much of a discussion :p it was more "erm.... so.... let's keep walking... THERE'S A BAR!!!"
