>Last Friday me and a few of my best friends decided that we’d go out for some food and a few drinks as we haven’t had a girlie get-together in ages and ages.
We all finished work early and headed to the Globe in town prepared for an evening of food, drinks, banter and some dancing thrown in for good measure. The idea was to go out early so we’d go home early…that didn’t quite go to plan…cough cough…
After the food and a few glasses of wine we ventured from the eating area to the ‘noisy’ area. You know the place, it’s the part of the pub where the music’s so loud, that all conversation dies and all you can do is smile and nod at each other or shout in each others ears to be heard! Well we headed that way and got accosted by a man in pink tights and a skirt!
By this point we were feeling brave (and rather tipsy to say the least) and so Leown went straight in for his sunglasses! Well they were pink! He managed to get them back and ran away – not surprising really, I think we laughed at him a lot.
After there we made out way to Chicago’s (mainly for the free entry and free drink we had vouchers for) where we had a hideous shot of god knows what and made a beeline for the dance floor! (Between you and me, I don’t think the shot helped our dance moves any!)
After an hour or so Leown and Gemma decided to call it a night and headed home, but Lauren and I, being hardcore, decided we’d head to Heights for the Glitterball room – you gotta love the disco!
Here we were treated to some card tricks by a lad wearing a white hat. It was a cool hat. I really enjoy magic tricks (yes, I’m a geek!)but it drives me mad trying to work out how they’re done. Not made easier by the fact that we were both drunk at this point. After a bit more dancing, we decided to call it a night and after not being able to convince Lauren’s boyfriend to come and get us we headed for a taxi thoroughly satisfied with our night with all boxes ticked. Food – check, drink – check, girlie banter and laughs – check, odd photos – check, lots of dancing – check.
Until the next time…
