The Pensioners’ Christmas Knees Up

Yes, the highlight of the year for the old crew. Here we are, getting them in prior to galloping along to Howie’s at 2:30pm. Well, some of us are here - I’d made secret plans to only meet up with Jeff Bezos on the extreme left to find others had the same plan. Then of course I felt guilty that I hadn’t let C know about it. It was spur of the moment! I just bumped into him!
Anyway, it was a great bash - two dozen of us, and some hours later we found ourselves back in the Guildford. And then there were several more hours. I got plied with drink: I never spent a penny. A’s Father had won a small fortune on the lottery or so she told us. Double Laphroaigs seemed to be the order of the evening. Washed down with small Peronis. Thank gawd it closes at 11pm.
