Easter Bank Holiday Madness
Jeez Louise… !!!
Easter Bank Holiday for us Brits, which involves a 4 day weekend and in my case 4 days of stupidity.
Quick summary…
Thurs night
Went for a meal at Croma in Leeds, nice pizza, good wine, then round the bars of Leeds and onto some random indie nightclub, last point of memory was downing a bunch of Jagerbombs… woke up with a bruised face (?) and an empty wallet, amusing night!
Friday
Drove to a friends in Mytholroyd, random village in the countryside then went upto Heptonstall, an even more random village on top of a hill to watch the Egg Pace, this basically involved grown men dressing up in weird costumes dancing around in a very Wicker Man-esque fashion… all very odd, but fun, and we obviously got drunk.
Friday night a bunch of us went back to my friends and had an all night party which got very very messy, fun stuff.
Saturday
Discovered some fucker had broken into my car and stolen my stereo over night!!! Not what I wanted at all, had to hang around and deal with the police in a very messy state, was really struggling to deal with things! Eventually got home feeling pretty pissed off (damage to the car will be v.expensive, and simply no point claiming on stupid insurance). Stayed in that night feeling ill, had a couple of beers and a chinese take away.
Sunday
Met up in Leeds with a friend at lunchtime (Waaay too early to be drinking when it’s like the 4th day in a row!), pub lunch then sat down to drink our way through the afternoons football, Liverpool were rubbish (Mascherano is a dumb ass for that sending off), Arsenal Chelsea was pretty boring, although I as pretty drunk by that point.
Decided to go home early evening as I was tired and in the mood to relax and finally play some poker, and it went fairly well. Only a small session, but results as below…
2x$33 STT (6 max) 1/0/1
5x$22 STT (6 max) 3/2/0
OUT $176
IN $450
Guess that goes a little to paying back the damage to my car!
Monday
YEP, the drinking continues!!!
Had a lush meal with my family in the afternoon, completely stuffed myself, then went out into Leeds again for a drink with a lady friend who we will call K. Quiet drink with K turned into a bit of a session hitting a few bars and drinking cocktails and foreign beers, as is the case when man woman and alcohol meet, myself and K ended up getting somewhat touchy feely and ended up back at her city centre apartment… oops! Fun fun, left her place this morning as she had to go to work, and now it’s Tuesday and I’m sat typing this… Jeez Louise what a mental weekend. Thankfully I had the genius fore-sight to book today as a holiday.
Anyways, thats pretty much my partying done for awhile I reckon, gonna try put in quite a few hours at the poker table this week!

Apart from someone stealing your stereo it sounds like you had a fun weekend!
