Lovely to see you Emma, we'll catch up for longer next time. I just wish I'd got a picture of the look on the face of the guy serving the beer when you first found me - clapping a hand on my shoulder and telling me I was nicked didn't freak me out at all, but the poor bartender looked in need of clean underwear

haha yeah it was good to see you too! Just wish I could've had a beer with you! Apparently that's frowned upon when you're working.....

Don't understand it, I mean its not as if its strong beer Pic came out really well though didn't it. I'm actually in Section 19 the next two days, thats just typical

And I got chatted up and the guy wasn't even drunk!!! he was desperate, I kid you not, sat 2 seats away from me, kept making excuses to put his hand on my knee or my shoulder, kept asking where I lived/worked/came from, finally asked if I would like to sit next to him for the next two days and could he have my phone number Poor deluded fool, he just has no idea........and I'm not sure what put me off the most, the pointed goatee looking beard (honest, no kidding), the yellowing toenails sticking out of his sandals, the fact he thought XXXX was good beer or the fact he kept telling me my life would be perfect if he was in it
