Default Polly's Leaving Pish Up

As most of you know Polly leaving again, to do her shopping at M&S, so we are going on the pish

Friday 6th February.

Location is Gilhooleys, on the corner of Albert Street and Charlotte Street in Brisbane CBD. They sell Guinness, and Bulmers & Magners cider amongst other tipples, which makes it a perfect meeting place, time of pish up to start?? not sure yet, buy will get back on that one.

M&S....and Tescos....and Sainsburys....and Asda....... and WHS.....and Boots...and Evans....and Brantano.......anyone know any good shipping companies

Bearing in mind I have to get up the next morning and be sober enough to be allowed on a plane, I won't be out all night, only till 2ish or so!

5.30 pm start? Just a suggestion, open to offers, as I'm not working that day I'll get there then and anyone else can join me whenever?


(that distant screaming sound is Moneypen btw, having read the list of shops I'm dreaming of

Had read the first sentence and my face looked like this . Got to the bit about out drinking until 2ish and I still looked like this . Got to the end and I was like this

I would be totally useless at one of your piss ups. I am such a lightweight

I have a 13 year old niece who is bursting with excitement waiting to shop, I'm sure Evans still sell jeans that fit me, and Boots will still have the same pills and potions as usual Plus the pubs, the gossip, the friends and relatives, and the pure fact its home will keep me happy

We do have a regular lemonade drinker, , so you wouldn't look like too much of a lightweight

I'll be interested to see MY face when I'm trying to get organised for a lunchtime flight after being out drinking half the night
