uh-oh, brithday problems…

Firstly, the staff were really nice when I got there, which was brill. They helped me up the steep stairs with the gear and everything which is really rare these days – thanks Les!

There’s a new concert sec there called Barry who does a great job.

I didn’t know there was a no-dancing during the first half rule, and there was a (loud) 40somethingth birthday group in who wanted to get up at every song.
The committee kept asking them to sit down, which left me trying to pick songs nobody would dance to…
…but they even got up to dance to my Italian version of Angels!

Anyway, they left during the bingo before the dance spot.

Of course these kinds of rules were there once for a reason, and I’m sure they’ve reviewed them all recently (?) but this one is outdated in my opinion.

People who dance buy more beer. fact. cos they’re hot. people sat listening quietly can make a pint last an hour. it all boils down to beer sales, so I’llnever undertstand this one. besides, if they’re being told off, the ‘younger(?)’ generations won’t come in. daft I call it.

Anywho, it was a nice club with lovely people and a very friendly birthday girl (hello tracy).
