Chesty McBoob's blog post - Let the festivities begin!

Whew I've had a busy busy couple of days. Went to see the musical "The Producers" with G as an early Christmas treat and had a fantastic time. I'd almost forgotten how great professional live theatre is. Comedian Peter Kay turned up in the show too, which was good as we didn't know who the cast would be when we booked tickets months and months ago. He was hilarious and the cast generally were brilliant.

Last night I went on the first of 4 Christmas get togethers, this one in an Italian restaurant. This was with my old team of workmates who I don't get to see that much. They gave us disposable cameras, party poppers and crackers and we even wore our party hats. Talk about getting into the spirit of things! The bottle of wine each probably helped that too!

Am chuffed that I have NO hangover this morning Ate loads of food - garlic mushrooms with cheese, lasagne and tiramisu ( a traditional 1980s Italian menu lol - I am so retro!).

Am out again this evening with G's mates who are great fun - this time for more of a drink than a meal. We have rain and gale force winds today, so I will no doubt have interesting times trying to stand up straight outside pubs whilst also trying to smoke a cigarette.

That's it then until my next 2 outings next week. I need a couple of days to recover!!!
