The best nights are those unplanned

I’ve always thought the best nights out are often those where it is all unplanned. Last night was one of those.

Had drinks for a couple of birthdays last night, at 10 pm after the House rose. Now usually drinks at 3.2 is a low key affair, but people seemed to be in very good spirits, and what started as a couple of glasses of wine turned into a long night out, getting home around 3 am after several hours on Courtney Place.

I can’t imagine anyone would have imagined the dozen or so revellers were Members of Parliament (and a couple of others), especially the way they were dancing away. Funniest scenes are seeing the various male teens trying to hit on the married female MPs after they got pulled up for a dance.

I imagine a couple of people will be upset that shock horror MPs are like normal people and enjoy a night out. I would point out that this all happened after they finished work at 10 pm, having completed a 14 hour day.

The only sad part to the night was that the Green Parrot was closed – the tradition bread and butter end to a night. Many highlights – but none which I am allowed to blog about 🙂
