So, as I said, we all got up at 2pm and big respect given to Minnelli for a 7am session! Simon and I were really fucking struggling - this was not funny - we were soooooooo ill :o(

Bimbled around Latvia and in some shopping malls. Had a Pizza in a bar with a stunning waitress. God knows why but we had the 1st pint in an Irish Bar (I fucking hate Irish bars - they think they're all so fucking fiddle me dee and up for the craic - FUCK OFF!). Anyway - the pint went down very slowly! Met a nice local bird who gave us some good advice for tonight.

Went out to a self service place for food which was pretty cool but I still felt like shite - this soon changed after we found a wicked little downstairs bar in the old town. I forced myself to try a Bahlsam (Latvia's national drink) and this sorted me right out! The barman was a top lad and much banter was had with him and some local chicks over magic tricks! Then found a cocktail list and necked back a few of them much to Keeny's delight - he's a secret Pinnacolada man!

Next thing a group of people came in and it was some dudes birthday! Not sure if it's a Local/National/Just this bar tradition, but all the lights went off, bouncing music (Fatboy Slim - Rockefeller Skank) and then wearing sunglasses he had to drink some awful flaming sambucas and Bahlsam whilst being hit with a spade - highly entertaining and high fives all around (1 of the guys gave the hardest high fives ever!). A top quality start to the evening before we hit a club with an opening night called Essential...........

Essential - fuck me....... this is one of the greatest clubs I have ever been to (just beaten by Copacabana in Poland!). We queued to get into this place with one of the fittest girls I have ever seen - Diane (no - not my mother who's name is also Diane!). Diane was Blonde (obviously), beautiful face, perfect body, stunning teeth and spoke like an angel. I was in L-O-V-E. Only down point was she smoked and her friend was a b!tch trying to scupper Si's chances (which would have been minimal if I tried :o) ) to pull her. This girl was such a 9 and 1/2 out of 10. Sooooooooo FIT!

Anyway, I digress...............so queuing for a while to get in about midnight/1am and when we got in there it was a superclub. It was rather quiet tho - as if they were trying make the place look busier for the crowds outside. Anyway, 1 room was pretty dancy and we spent some time here before going upstairs - OH MY GOD - this was fucking bunny central! I honestly couldn't see a girl around me that wasn't sh@gable! Unbelievable! Soooo many fitties Please leave me here for the rest of my life! :o) To be fair I was just taking it all in and don't think I chatted up any girl there! - it was a crime that none of us pulled in this hareem of keishtah! Below us was the R'N'B room - properly throwing out the "choons" to bump and grind to - we had plenty of eyes on the floor of love but that was about it! I think we really stood out as tourists (our reason for this was because we had spiky hair and Eastern Europe dudes all have crop haircuts!). Si had a dancing session with a right sort and got some contact details but nowt else - Keen seemed very distant and wanted to leave early doors. It was a legendary night for the standard of girls there and our dancing complimented it - just cannot believe we didn't get any points! In at 4am!
