Birthday bowling and beer
January 29th, 2009 | Published in Belfast, Friends
So Saturday before last was my birthday celebrations. It was the first time I’d been drinking this year (so that was 17 days alcohol free!) and it all got pretty messy.
I wanted to do something a bit different from the usual just-go-out-and-get-drunk shennanigans, so first of all we headed to the only bowling alley still open in Belfast – the Odyssey Bowl. Unfortunately I came second, but was happy with that! Then it was off to Muriel’s, which is tiny, but we all got seats so that was cool.
There Charlie was responsible for getting me to drink a tequila (with orange and tabasco instead of the usual salt and lemon, which was quite nice!) which I think kind of finished me off. We did go to White’s but I have no recollection of that. I also invited people back to mine to play Mario Kart, but that all went belly up as well.
All in all it was a good night, and it was cool to have everyone out together, but next time I shall be doing it minus the tequila.
