A night in the life of…
Tuesday saw Ian coming up to us for a night out in Colchester and while we had planned to go out at uni thinking that there’d probably be more chance of a crowd, we ended up in town. After some frantic arrangments we had agreed to meet Vicky in town for a bit as she had to go to work the next day.
Before we went out Ian cooked his famous curry dish and we sat down to enjoy with the Taxi to town only about twenty minutes away, but all was well and we had just about finished in time! We went to Yates’ first and it is suprisingly fun in there, I’ve only actually been in there twice I think and I’ve fun both times even though I was feeling really quite ill. After some interesting conversations and silliness we moved on to the ony place in Colchester onpen past midnight on a Tuesday, a place where I had never been before…
…the Hippodrome. Yes I can now no longer say that I haven’t been inside. To be honest it wasn’t as bad as I was expecting, the music wasn’t bad a chessy mix of popular music.
All in all I had a fun night and I’m pretty sure that everyone else did too, we watched galactica the next day as Ian hadn’t seen it yet and although it was ok it wasn’t one of the best episodes, nothing moved in the main storylines and the only thing that really happened was a bit of character development for Tigh and Helo.
Good Hunting
And there was no sign of Chappers who was meant to be DJing…
Chappers?
The guy from Radio 1…
haha you went to the Slapperdrome!
But then I shouldn’t laugh cos I went there twice!
I blame James for first year and Rachael for the time i went in 3rd year!
But talkign of Colchester I shall be coming up to visit sometime soon! Not sure exactly when but could be in 2 weeks time if i can sort it…let me know if you and Charlie about as be good to see you. (i’ll assume vicky told you why).
Oh, I know who you mean now.
Yeah I never get those “guest DJ appearances” on cheese like nights, I get them on special dance, indie type DJ nights, but never on cheese ones - saying that, it is probably because I’m far to drunk to remember what went on.
Incidently, when to this club where this bloke from a band was doing a DJ slot (Si, if you read this: MAG gig, where BJM bloke was there) - and all he did was pick songs off of his IPOD. I bet he got paid for that too!!
Nooooo
Not going to the hippo is something to keep hold of!!
Although I avearages once for every year I was in Colchester, which is a nice average!!
(but as you said, it is not really that bad!! -just stay away on a Friday/Saturday night as there is a bit of attitude in there, but then there is nearly everywhere on a friday/saturday night)
