For me it used to be exciting, of course I was younger but also the thought of drinking past midnight, perhaps even to 1 o/clock am was kinda decadent.
Not now, I can do that on a rainy Monday in February if need be, lost its sparkle.
We have been invited to a party, but we worked out that it was going to cost the best part of £50 for a cab home, so it will be a curry and a bottle of wine indoors, same as last year.
Where is the option for going over to friends, having a meal and playing silly games with them and their neighbours, drinking too much as the evening wears on, starting to fade towards the end of Jools and finally your missus driving you home and being poured into bed at around 2.30AM?
