Drink Responsibly

I went up-town for a friend's 21st on Sunday (Bank Holiday Weekend). We all went to Kushion in Glasgow where we had a private booth. We all had a cracking night, knocking back the drinks and getting a dance in here and there (most dancing took place on the booth table!). It was the aftermath though that inspired this post.

I haven't put up a blog in a few days, thats because on the Monday (and through to today) the last thing I wanted to do was write a blog! The hangover was probably the worst one to date! We normally hit the drink hard on a night out but on Sunday I must have had about 5 different types of drink. I started off with a Mojito pre-mixed Bacardi bottle which was 14.9%, it wasn't nice at all, I had to add Lemonade to make it drinkable! (Cheers Pouty McPouterpants for the Lemonade).

Then it was on to Nico's Bar on Sauchiehall Street for more pre-drinks. Races for drinking their 'Adios M****rF****r' (A mixed drink of vodka, gin, tequila & blue carracau) were not a bright idea looking back. After having two of them I had 2 jagerbombs after that. Looking at it now, can't even believe we got in to Kushion, must have been a riot by the time 11.300 came around.

Then Kushion itself, one of my favourite clubs in Glasgow. Usually go on a Tuesday for their 'Juicy Tuesdays' night as its always packed and a good night. This was a special Kushion vs Tingle (Tingle Shooter Bar, Glasgow) night. Tingle were in the house and naturally we had some of their shots on offer. Then on to the regular Vodka Lemonades for the rest of the night. The rest of the nights a bit of a blur, can only rememebr dancing on the booth table sure.


What I do remember is the Monday. Felt ill, don't normally suffer from hangovers, but this was somethingelse. Can rememeber getting 'SnapChats' all day from everybody, just non-stop pictures of 'dead' looking people. Everybody hit it hard and suffered too. What a night though, great times and celebrating the Pouters birthday was good.


Happy Birthday Scotty Pout Face!

ScotRail Should Wear a Mask and a Striped Jumper!

Yesterday was a LOOOOONGGGG day. No, seriously.

I was bang on with my prediction in my "Last Minute Joe" blog the other day. My uni assignment was painful and tedious and took me near enough 12 hours of non-stop panic and stress. Submission day is always like this, but because I was working I never started until 7pm the night before, finishing at 7.30am, 3 hours before hand in time!

Want to know the worst part of it though? It wasn't the 12 hours doing it, but the aftermath. Obviously I was up around 7Am the day before to go to work, so I managed to be up for 24 hours with no sleep just as I finished, then I had to go in to uni and hand it in at 11am. I had, stupidly, agreed the week before to go out with some of the uni lads (Noel Gallagher, Predator and the new inductee, the waterfront!) after hand in as a celebration, not realising I would be knackered. So, basically, I couldn't say no and ended up drinking from about 2, ended up in Glasgow, went for food at CBK (China Buffet King) before heading to Nico's on Sauchiehall Street (one of my favourite bars in Glasgow). Watched the first half of the Champion's League Secong leg Semi-Final Real madrid v Borussia Dortmund. This was me now with no sleep going on 38 hours! I could'nt keep my eyes open.

I bailed. Good thing I did because I managed to fall asleep as soon as I got on the train. I mean 'fall' asleep, I literally collapsed. haha!

So, want some advice? 1st. Don't leave a uni assignment to such a late time (last day is fine, but not last 'night'). 2nd. Don't drink when tired, such a bad mix.


Quick Note: ScotRail are a joke! £4.70 to get up to Glasgow from Paisley at off-peak time! No wonder I never use the train these days, driving is bloody cheaper! Got robbed, almost died when the ticket booth woman said £4.70, "WHAT!!!?". Sort it out ScotRail, we all know your profit margins are huge, get a grip!




Thanks folks
