Ouch....

Got rather drunk the other night...unlike me...called in for a 'quick' drink on the way home...left several hours later...

Had a beer (or two) - moaned it was crap (but cheap) so went to a new bar & fancied wine (guys say that makes me a ponce) - I asked what the house white was and they offered me an unlabelled Spanish or a French Bordeaux that at least had a label on it - both were crap (and not cheap) so worked my way through assorted others until I found one that was almost enjoyable (and certainly not cheap). By then almost didn't care, but life felt better... 

Owner obviously thought we were potentially rich (& daft) enough to spend enough to pay for his new car & apartment so gave us all a 'shot' - mango, vodka, Martini and other stuff I think - very nice. So we bought another round. And another. Lord knows.

After taking the photo, I dropped my new iphone. Face down (life continues to be unfair)and it smashed. It still worked, but clearly needed sorting.

Rang the Apple store next day - pressed options 1, 3, 6, 2 until I spoke to someone who understood Mancunian & he said it would cost me 180 quid and they'd need it for 3 days. So I went to the 'fake' market (phone department!) and got it done for 80 quid in 15 minutes, although watching Tit Chang Wank set about it with a hammer, saw & steak knife was scary. He also scanned through my photo's with no thought whatsoever while testing the screen functionality. I think he does that deliberately hoping to find naughty stuff.

Anyway, it works perfectly again now.

Bank holiday here for 3 days now - Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, although we had to work the weekend to get that - why we can't just have a Bank Holiday on a Monday like anywhere else, I don't know. OiC - Only in China.

3 days to myself.

Literally.
