had the most excellent time on friday night. started off with yoga being notched up a tad on the intensity scale, followed by a really good discussion on beer. got us hungering (or rather, me) so much for some good ole weissbier that we decided to go down to marche for their cheap erdinger (on tap, on tap!)

so there we were, with our 1.5l of erdinger, dark. wah! i felt so proud and happy, almost akin to maternal as i watched prema carefully craddling the huge, beautiful, malty, dark, roasted, foamy nectar to our table. followed by many ghost stories (both creepy and funny). discovered that prema does NOT know what a toyol is, we're planning to tell her the next time to scare the living daylights out of her, cos she's home. ALONE!! wahahaha. and apparently she's seen a ghost! and blue light attracts 'em, so y'all know what to do now, don't you.

and just when i thought the night couldn't get any better, dax and adrian decided to drop by with car in tow! (yes, i'm a car slut)and we went down to dubliners for more drinks! *contented sigh*

ordered a strong bow, which turned out pretty good! i've never had cider before, but i'd rather stick to beer. was tempted to try their guiness draft though. i mean, what's the point of going to an Irish bar and not taking some guiness?

anyways, after spending an outrageously hilarious night bitching and reminising about IJ/CJ days and bad SBC shows (e.g. triple 9 and the various faces of james lye - noting the astounding similarities between all his expressions, while maintaining it's THE best comedy that channel 5 has EVER produced), we decided to go down to arab street to sheesha!

boy was it fun, with that roony great pipe with the water filter. all i needed were some carpets, cushions and dim lighting and i would have been in a smoke-filled harem - MY harem, bwahaha. now all we need is slight air-conditioning, dim candle light, and some trip hop. yeah baby. wouldn't mind a lava lamp or two either.
