Leaving Do Drinks (Dunc)

After football and a quick kebab pit stop it was time to head in to town for a few farewell drinks with some friends. Special thanks to Boz and Jenny for making the trip over from Liverpool and McGrumble and Campell for making it across from Norn Iron.

The drinking began in earnest at Big Hands on Oxford Road. Although it’s basically a grubby bar/club, it’s close to a load of music venues so you often get music celebs popping in for a beer or two. I’ve only been in a few times, but have still managed to see the lead singer from Elbow, most of the members of Grandaddy and the back of Pete Doherty’s head. If I remember correctly, there was some D-list girl band in there on Saturday hanging around near the entrance to the toilets. Neal also spotted someone famous -

After Big Hands we moved on to "Friends and Family" where it all got a bit messy. Table football was played, vodka and red stripe was drunk and lewd remarks were made.

I was told the next day that after we left the club, I spotted the nightbus to Stockport and ran off after it without saying goodbye to anyone. So, even though I was pretty wasted the old homming instincts did me right.

Quality night all and all. Cheers for everyone that came. More photos of the night can be found here
