my inability to have a quiet Pint..once again rears it's ugly head
anyway
My very good friends Rick and Jo came up to Newcastle from not so sunny Lowe stoffe (sp) and I was meeting them in the maggy bank for some scran and a few beers. And I also convinced the Giles and annihilator to pop along...
Of course the day didn't start too smoothly. Kate the friendly bank was otherwise occupied so I couldn't get money off her, so I counted out all my coppers. Then she rang me and drove to give me 40 quid...which was pretty good...
Meet the Giles and Annihilator on the metro and head to the maggy bank, Jo and their party had already arrived, however they where feeling a bit worse for wear after a decadent night out on Saturday. I've meet theme all before. But I can't remember any of their names ... what can you do?
after a fine and very filling meal , the hung-over lot went home, me Rick and Jo with the Giles and her wife headed down the bank the broken doll...great pub, dirt cheap(5 pints for 8 quid) sat around chewing the fat, I got talking to a guy form limavady..Which seem to be a running theme when I'm out? Meet someone Irish and get Dewey eyed about the homeland..
left there about 4 and headed to the Cumberland where Rick was meeting one of his friends who he used to work with, got to the Cumberland and it was chocker, met his mate ilana(I think) she knows my mate Gillian which kind of shows just how small the world is
dander up to the tanners after two pints in the Cumberland, had two beers there and started talking about all things political, in between comparing beards with the bar man(mines far better)..Then decided to walk down to the ship, which I had never been in before. It's been done out recently and it is actually quite nice, sat around drinking wallsend brown ale... then out of the blue we found out that canadain sarah, hadn't been deported so she popped over for a few beers..
By about ten o'clock I was pretty trolled, and I had to write an application form.
Fell asleep
Woke up at 6 and finished the application form, surprisingly the stuff I wrote last night wasn't gobbledygook and sent it in, shattered I called work and told them I had a bout of insomina...which I did I was up and down all night) did some work from home but booked a days leave off ..So it all worked out well
Went back to bed. Got woken up with a cat's ass in my face, pottered around the house all day, going to get out of the house to night to ensure I don't go insane. Might swing passed gavs later...
Have to prepare myself for Saturday, my bro's coming up and Goatboys' out so I can't imagine I'm going to be very sober or coherent by the end of the day
