I have just returned back to the north east and had a remarkably good journey considering the amount of alcohol I had knocked back the night before and how especially at this time of year traffic seems to be particularly slow. Although I wouldn’t say the weather had been good at home, it had been windy and cold but at least no rain, however as soon as I took my turning off the motorway down it came, torrential rain what a welcome. On the note of weather a very nice local weather lady on the telly this morning said you can expect parts of the north east to hit -7 tonight BRILLIANT and when I was at uni handing my work in it started to snow oh what fun!
Over the Christmas period I had a great time only missing 4 nights out in the whole 3+weeks which I was quite pleased with and considering that included Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New years day I consider that quite good going. I thought it may be fun (for me at least) to name every place I have drunk alcohol in over Christmas so here goes:
Lowlands, RE Bar, Champers, Shapla, Black Horse, Woodman, Jolle, Moons, Oddfellows, The Victory, Chicago, Columbia Press, Beer Bunker, The Verve, Detroit Bar, Henry’s, Jewell, OnAnon, Waxy O’Connors, The Cambridge, Nag’s Head, Maple Leaf, Porterhouse, All Bar One, Goals Heathrow, Crown & Treaty, Liquid, Glasshouse, Sway = 29 places!
I may have missed some but I feel that is quite comprehensive, God knows what was spent in each of these places but there were certainly some funny tales.
A few of my most memorable moments since being home:
Hardened drinker Daz calling me an Alcoholic – Lowlands
Missing out on winning the quiz by 1 ½ points – Lowlands
Mass bar brawl – Victory
Very competitive game of Articulate - Oddfellows
Kieron pulling random girl – Chicagos
RE Sunday night lock ins – RE
Irish man singing Roy Orbison - RE
Horrendously loud yobish chanting - Henrys
