Ride for Saturday, 23 December

Rode downtown to meet a friend for drinks. Nasty weather out with heavy winds and rain, though it did at least mean the pub was pretty quiet and we got some really attentive service. After we closed the pub down we moved on to a nightclub, just for kicks. The waitresses were definitely hired for their looks; the darkest beer they had was Corona, and the only port they had was Masi (which, in the rest of the world, is known as a red wine). We ended up drinking gin and tonics on the basis that the waitress couldn't possibly screw it up since the ingredients were in the name of the drink.

The weather calmed down a bit by the time I headed home around 4am, I went through the North end and dropped off a Christmas present in the letterbox of a friend before riding my way into the headwind home.
