Beer on an empty stomach is not a good idea. Remaining seated while absorbing beer will give the false impression one is not really that drunk. Getting up will send illusions crashing down. When I have a fit of the giggles with Anna of Little Red Boat there is no point calling Pixeldiva' s boyfriend to the rescue as he'll only make it worse. When I am already drunk and still have 1/2 pint left in your glass at last orders, it's probably wiser to stop Tom from getting me another pint with his round. Just when I think I am a grown up I find I can still get star struck and behave like an average take that teenage fan on meeting Annie Mole. Sometimes it's good to be woken up by a mobile phone to save me ending up at Heathrow, especially if the reason for the call is to offer a lift from the tube station. Note that when asked which was the last station I stopped at so ETA can be worked out, answering I don't know will give a clue to the caller as to current state of drunkedness. Hangovers are a right bummer. I am never drinking again... well not until next time.

(14.12.04 09:56) I was there. But I guess I left before you lot arrived. I had a beer, spent a few mins chatting to some folks from Funjunkie, plus a couple of people who's blogs I didn't know about, the Linkmachinego guy and Adrian from sevitz.com - and then left at 10pm; fashionably early. |

(14.12.04 19:29) I was there from 8:30. Sat mainly at the table closest to the end of the bar (the one where James pulled out an apple laptop). Stayed till closing time. Shame I missed you. Too many people I guess to talk to everybody and I am not very good at the whole mingling thing. |
