Has been a better year than others, as i've done things i wouldn't normally do.
My friend had his bachelor party in London, so i've stayed in a hotel, in London (Kinda on my own, they were there in their own rooms, and i left early as hell - well, 9am as i was tired and hardly slept). On the same day as going up; i lost a load of money in the hotel, at the bar. Thankfully, the barman saw it, picked it up and i (eventually) got it back after procedures were done, but it scared the hell out of me. Went to a Bavarian food place (brain went and cant think what its called!) and a cocktail bar - prohibition style, really weird (nice, but expensive and probably something i wouldn't do again...) and went to a strip club, had a couple of dances but thats it. Helped the bachelor get his own lapdance, which i think pissed the best man off as he also bought the girls a glass/bottle of champagne which was hella expensive.
I flirted with a barmaid at a gig night and ended up buying her a drink. First time i went into the bar, i got my own drink (Ale), then another (cider this time), and the 3rd drink was a WKD blue for my friend Chelsey. The first time she served me, she had been laughing loads, so i enquired why. She and one of the barmen had been talking about a Banana Sambucca, and a comment was made, who doesn't like something long and sticky in their mouth. Made me laugh, and i eventually asked how to go about buying her a drink. Didn't happen for a while, but eventually, and after seeing my friends band, i went back outside with my friends, and went to the bar. Saw her, and was served by her and said I still owed her a drink. Maybe reluctantly, she accepted and asked what. "Something long and sticky that people like down their throat!" Had the drink - i had one as well, and went back to my friends. Eventually, she came out and thanked me, and kissed me on the cheek in front of 2 friends; which took me by surprise!
I asked someone out, but when she found out - from someone i (kinda) work with - long story...the age difference between us, wasn't so keen on it. (The girl is 20 now as far as i know, and i'm 30) so that fell apart, but its something i shall learn from in my next attempt! Theres another cute girl that i work with - she's 18 (d'oh!) but shes intelligent, and cute, and i shall be soon asking her something along the lines of "What would you say if a 30year old asked you out?" put it out there straight away. Shes nice, and i've been getting her at tea breaks/lunch and helped her out as well, so; fingers crossed. Originally, i planned to do it on new years eve shift, and it being the first thing of 2016 or last of 2015, but she finishes at 10pm so that screws that plan up. Also, she does friday/saturday and i do sunday to wednesday so thats a bit crap too. (Tho we'd both be off thursdays...)
Also, on the 4th of September, i went to the Burlesque show and met/hugged some absolute BEAUTIES; again, a first (and hopefully not an only!) Got more friends that want to go this year.
All in all, a good year. Hoping 2016 is good for me, as well as you all...and I hope you all have an awesome Christmas!!!!
