There's no escaping it...

Around this time last year, I was unsuspectingly caught up in Dave's unofficial stag night. It was a night of ridiculous excess in terms of food eaten, alcohol consumed and money spent; the events were catalogued here for future reference and the three of us promised that some time we would get round to giving it another go.

Well last night was the night and rather than see how much alcohol we could pour down our necks (which we know is lots) we all agreed on a couple of games of ten pin bowling and a meal, interspersed with a few liquid refreshments.

The bowling? Despite several strikes, my rusty form left me in third place in game (did I mention there were only three of us?). The meal? We went to China Town in Cleethorpes maket place and althought it's not particularly originally named, they served up some excellent food with friendly service - a definite recommendation. From there we wandered down the the No.2 Under the Clock (winners of this years local CAMRA pub of the year). It was whle enjoying a pint in there that the unthinkable happened. We'd had an excellent night and decided to draw the line there and then. Before 10:30.

I dread to think that I may be getting responsible in my old age or, dare I say it, perhaps I'm growing up at last...

Seany, you are a veritable denizen of with and humourous comment ( although I suspect you are much funnier thoroughly pissed).

So how do you feel about being our opening act next year? Watch out for Look North ( but it might not be put on til late, I didn't have any make-up so I doubt it will make pre-watershed).

That should have said "wit"

What a nith-with!

Very kind of you to ask, but there's very little chance of my opening next year's comedy event. You can read frustrated comments from many of my friends over the last year or so trying to entice me into the limelight, but I'm happier entertaining (hopefully) from behind the screen!

Glad to hear the evening went well though - well done, great result.
