Drank too much last night, woke up to find a gorilla had taken a massive shit in my mouth whilst I was comatose. Tried to ride the hangover off, had a little cry when trying to cycle up emery down. Now feeling sorry for myself trying to muster the energy to go the the footie.
Well I blame Liverpool FC for whatever happens tonight. That, and the several cans of lager I have already consumed ahead of a 40th birthday. It promises to be some craic. Itâs a joint 40th/18th, and I get on alright with both of the birthday girls, but there will be certain characters that I have clashed with in the past, not least a bloke who tried to pass off comical computing industry experience in my presence.
The missusâ MDs will also be there, so I sort of have to be on best behaviour. Ah, fuck it. Iâve got an hour to sober up*.
*After I finish this beer.
Oldenburg Shiraz 2010 from South Africa - highly recommended
Half a bottle of champagne (my valentine present). Listening to Bowie.
Thanks to Mrs D_P singing Yellow by Coldplay 3 weeks ago when a bunch of Hockey players were at Karaoke night wearing yellow shirts, we had a good night out.
She had Chicken Fajitas, 4 Vodka Cranberries & a pint of Fosters, I had 2 pints of Fosters, a bottle of Cab Sav wine and a really good 12oz Ribeye Steak with all the trimmings and a couple of Springbok shots.
The taxi fare into town for that was 15 quid. The ENTIRE bar bill for the food & drinks came to 40 pence after using the voucher she won.
Plus the bar had the cricket on and there were some Yarpies hanging around to abuse.

And yes, I paid the 40p BEFORE legging it!
Quiet drink at Overdraft, I thought. Multiple beers down already and mâlady bringing friends to escalate the night. Definitely shouldâve eaten something. Ah well!
I am being good. I will make up for it on Sunday.
Celebratory rum and cola (IDS resigning)
I lie I was having another drink anyway.
âŚanyone remember me? Finally back from Switzerland after 12 days away⌠so far there has been 3/4 of prosecco,1x Bitburger and about to start on the doom bar⌠tomorrow I will ride my bike up some big hills and swear loudly when I huff and puffâŚ
We could never forget you, Gray.
A couple of quiet bottles of Amstel. Very nice too. Still recovering from an evening with a mad Paddy in London last night .
I am back from the party, alone, with no major incidents to report. Want a big sleep tonight with a view to getting down to Southampton in time for the Brook tomorrow. I am rather enjoying being 40. The youngâuns donât think youâre a dinosaur and the oldâuns can just about accept the fact that youâre no longer a sperm.
We have done a bottle and a half of Shiraz tonight while watching Sports Relief. We probably should have gone on the spirits.
Popping in for one at a friend from works leaving drinks.
Ended up missing planned dinner with girl and her brother. Iâm now on the sofa.
Iâm 6"3, I donât fit on the sofa
The Sotonians âMeltdownâ thread is quite different from the Saintsweb equivalent.

Not so much âpickledâ â but pretty wasted. It was a long night, with an 02:30am return home.
Tiny Rebel tap takeover at Overdraft in Shirley last night. Theyâre a Welsh brewery thatâs very much riding the hype train, so please accept my sincere apologies for supporting them.
Very smashed last night, 1700 start, home by 0130, ended up pole dancing in one of the local gay clubs!
`Had a relatively early night last night. Thems the rules when youâve gotta drive the next morning. Am in Southampton now and ready to be unleashed.
