This weekend I went back to Southampton for a few days where all my university friends were meeting up. It was a good time. We went bowling, I met friend-Tom's girlfriend, learned that friend-Jonathon was engaged to his. Interesting stuff. I won the second round of bowling, and every game of air hockey. I'm something of a demon at air hockey, if I do say so myself.

On the first night, after dinner, it was announced (to my alarm) that we'd be going to a night club. I probably don't...
