Boogie Nights

Been a while since Mum and Geoff have been down to Stevenage for a night out. Normally combined with either the bruvs or Geoff's friend Pete, a fellow Aerospace man. So it was a change for just the pair of them to make it down.

Of course, we had to go out for a quiet drink or 4. And a beef curry to finish it all off ;-)

Started off in the Standing Order, which is starting to get the name,"Standing At The Bar". The staffing levels have reached a point now that it's quicker to stay at the bar and drink, as by the time you've been served, had a drink, and gone back to the bar for another, it's closing time :-( Didn't stay there long as we wanted a beer, so off to the Proverbial, then Bottles, and then a taxi. And proving the age-old rule that trying to get a taxi as a bloke is neigh on impossible, Geoff and I both failing, only for Mum to grab the first one that drove past her.

My head's thumping this morning, so it's off to Tesco's for a hangover cure, and some shopping ;-)
