So phat

Last night at a party a guy used the most surreal line ever on a girl I was hanging out with. As they were dancing he leaned in and whispered in her ear "When you're pregnant you're gonna be so fat... so f**king fat." Not surprisingly it didn't get him very far.

The party was at a bar that I've been to more than any other bar since I've been here as they have a pretty healthy crew of New Zealand acts performing there and we've played there twice as well. It's a really nice space but there's something pretty dodgy going on... a couple of weeks ago they shut the bar, and now when you go there you have to bring your own beverages and pay whatever it costs for the gig as well as a £5 corkage. Also there seems to be a different attitude towards smoking every night. The law here is pretty much the same as in New Zealand, but a couple of times recently they've allowed people to smoke in the basement, and last night after about 1am people were smoking in the main bar as well, which is highly illegal and I'm sure it's only a matter of time till they get busted or go out of business. Which will be a shame because it is a great space and the owner and staff are rads.
