Day 45: Sat 24 Jan: BARRY'S 23RD

Today was pretty neat, actually.

We went to a party with my friend Kyle; it was his friend Barry's 23rd birthday and he was having a kegger. We caught the bus, half way there, but the connecting bus we were supposed to catch either didn't come- or came too early for us to get it. We waited ages and then Kyle was nice and came to pick us up. (it's like -5C out)

It was a good thing we didn't get there as early as we were going to, because no-one else would have been there. Kyle came to pick us up around 8:30pm from the Schrewsbury Metrolink station and he had two of his other friends (Hannah and Liz) in the car too; they're both really nice girls- both 19 and go to Webster College with Kyle. We called Barry when we were on our way there (at about 8:50pm or so) and he informed us that he wasn't even there yet, so we decided to stop and get some food. We went to "steak & shake" and had a bit to eat, it was alright- I had some chicken strips and a coffee. At around 10pm we headed back to Barry's party and there were some people there, maybe 20 or so, who had only arrived like 10 minutes before us or something.

They had a band playing called "The Daze"; they were a classic-rock band who were pretty good actually, but their drummer wasn't the best at keeping in perfect time and they played a little too loud for everyone's liking.

I met a bunch of fun new people :)
Everyone I talked to was really friendly.
I did my first ever shot; it was cheap lime flavoured vodka and it actually didn't go down too badly.

Accidently ended up leaving my black zip-up polyprop at the house when we went to go and get some food around 2:30am. We went to a 24 hour diner place called "Uncle Bill's" and we had waffles and more coffee :)

The next part was a real pain; when everyone left to go home, Train and I called a taxi (around 4:20-4:30am) it didn't end up coming for an hour D:
We were very exasperated, tired and cold.

Finally got home, now I'm writing this, and I'm about to go to sleep.

All in all, a fantastic night, minus the horrible taxi service. It was called County Cabs or something.
I'm never using them ever again.

Here are some pictures I got off someone else's camera:

On the far left is Train sitting on the couch. The guy with the messy dark hair in the middle (you can only see the back of his head) he had a creepy looking Hitler moustache.
