Colin's 41st Birthday

Colin is the nephew of our publican, Big D and a great crack. Sunday was Colin's birthday and as he was working Saturday night the celebrations began then, resulting in us not getting in til 5 ish. We were working Sunday night so missed out on the dinner party but joined in after close for a great night.

One of the highlights was Donald (who was yet to count the till) being bet 100 quid that he could not drink the remainder of a jug of cocktail. There was about 1/2 a jug of the cocktail as well as the entire lemon used to garnish it, he then had to keep it down for 20 minutes.

Unbelievably he managed this task and was fighting fit for the rest of the night! The bet got whittled down to 20 quid which Don put towards the local lifeboat charity.

Matt tried to follow this bet up with the old slice of bread in 1 minute trick, came terribly close but walked away with nothing but a full mouth.

All this silly eating also included the bunch of us (about 6) eating a massive jar of pickled garlic over the two nights. Body Odour Alert at the George Hotel!

Then, like all parties we ended up at Kenny's house with one of the band guys doing a sing along. This has been one of the highlights so far, luring unsuspecting musicians back to Kenny's, thrusting a guitar in their hands and having free entertainment- Brilliant.
