Dad`s 60th and St paddy`s day

Red bull gives you wings.
You can have your cake and eat it.

Pissed up dad


It`s monday the 17th of march. Dad`s birthday was yesterday, but we are celebrating again today. It`s also St paddy`s day so after a meal out with a few close friends of my dad we go to The Dubliner for a few drinks. It`s busy like normal but as it`s irish night we thought we would not get in. We got in and got served, so things were going good. It was full of hats and guiness, and the odd English people. Odd meaning my dad. He has his girlfriend with him ( no, not the one he lives with) They are stuck together all night like velcro. The only time they come up for air is to have another drink. The band who play there are as good as ever. More irish music than normal but this put people in the mood . The whole bar was pissed up, well almost, i decided to drive as it was his birthday party night. There were drinks being spilt, glasses broken, but no trouble anywhere. At 3.30 we decided to leave. As we left the bar there was a girl from Hungary trying to get us in to a strip club. Dad being dad was chatting her up. This is normal in daylight hours, but as the night gets dark and the drinks go down and the glasses come off, it seems to be more popular for him. The girls also look "ok" as he says. Across the street from us is Buzz lightyear, Alias Carl. Clocking what was going on, he shouts over as my dad kisses the girl, " it`s the kiss of death love, the kiss of death". At that point the two seperate and we get in the car to go home. In all, a good night out.
