That is soooo not what happened. How drunk were you? You were begging to play, and everyone only agreed because we were all sick of you banging on about it!

I was NOT that drunk! Not for the lack of people trying though!!

I went along with it, because I assumed you lot would chicken out, and some did (wusses)

But it certainly wasn't my idea. I got dragged from a club to go play!

And excuse me, but didn't you get the best dare?!

Not like the rest of us.

I've tried the Manchester Central Travelodge for the night of 29th and there aren't any cheap rooms available, they have family rooms at £56 so if anyone wants to share please let me know.... I will try again at the end of next week to see if any more rooms have been added...

You have NO idea! It wasn't so much a pub crawl as a tour of Manchester on foot! At one point, I thought the swines were taking me on the Great Northern Run (well, totter) without telling me!

Well in that case, I've been ripped off SG I was told that all they had left was a disabled twin - so I booked it Mind you, after the events of the night, I will probably be disabled by the time I get to the room anyway

Noooo, you can't back out now CG because believe me, you won't be the only one who's not as able bodied as the rest. Don't forget I have Fibromyalgia, so I will probably be hobbling along at the back anyway so you can keep me company Any walk longer than 300 yards and I'll be getting a taxi
