Posh Fish and Chips
Apr. 6th, 2003 01:35 pmLast night we were invited to the Bristol Taveners Ball. Basically the landlords of Bristol have a charity ball for their best customers. Actually we're not customers but we are friends of a man who was so popular with the landlords of Bristol that he gets his own table.
Essentially this is a Fish and Chip dinner where you wear a dinner jacket. It was a fun night. Too much was drunk, some dancing and then home - Stuart, the host, who we haven't seen much of this year appears to have shrunk. He was already loosing weight last year but basically since Jan 2002 he has lost in the region of 70kg's. No longer is he such a good client of the Bristol taverns, but its an amazing transformation.
Also on our table was Nigel. I was warned in advance. "You'll know Nigel when you see him, he's cool." Umm... but Nigel? Nigel is a semi-professional latin dance instructor. He oozes cool pretty much from every pore in his body. And yes, he could dance.
All in all much fun. This morning my sister and her brother in law are coming around, which will probably mean more drinking and then time to catch up with 24.
