Awesome, awesome weekend back in the capital. Lucy was away seeing her mum (how many times do they need to see each other?!). Anyway, while the cat’s away, the mouse will play! So, myself and a few ‘partners in crime’ decided to get together and have an old-fashioned night out!
It’s been a while since we’ve all been together. The last time was maybe in 2003 for Ibiza. We had a laugh! Some stories from that holiday can never be retold – not even here! What happens in Ibiza… stays in Ibiza.
It all started, as per usual, with a few quick games of poker at mine. Not online poker, old-fashioned style. I cleaned up, as per. Oh, by the way, we’d all donned our Pacino suits by this point!
So we catch the tube and head central up to Leicester Square for a few beverages with the tourists. I’ve lived in London for ages now and I’m still not cool with the prices – it’s not 2-4-1 vodka in Ibiza anymore!
Steve showed me this app on his iPhone. Basically, it checks your heartbeat. Why might this be interesting? If you’re aware of it, you can take steps to calm it down. Useful in a poker game, no? Here it is: iPhone heartbeat monitor.
We ended up in a non-descript club full of university students who have just left home for the first time. I spent most of my time at a slot machine. There was nothing major going on, except Jack trying in vain to get the number of a girl. He’s been reading that dating book The Game, bless him. Doesn’t he know that luck comes naturally?
So Lucy came back on Sunday night and went straight to bed. Her mother must have worn her out – she certainly wears me out!
Ciao!
