Never too old to rock and…ooo me hip…

Night out with the Team from work which i’d envisioned as a quiet meal with a little witty repartee, followed by me slinking off to the bus didn’t quite work out that way. As soon as the meal was finished, we headed to Ra!n Bar, then to Joshua Brooks then the fateful cry went up:

“ROCKWORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

Now, i’ll confess that I like Jilly’s Rockworld a lot. The people are friendly and the music’s good at least part of the time. Also, there’s no other club where the likes of me would look enough like one of the in crowd to impress the Lay Deez.

The problem is the opening hours. More specifically, the fact that it’s open until 7 a.m.

I discovered there’s a whole new definition of “in trouble” for staggering in at 5:30 a.m. not having noticed the selection of increasingly panicky messages your beloved has been leaving on your phone for the last 3 hours.

    They spill so much beer in there, you could have claimed you were stuck solid to the floor for several hours. Or you could have been stuck in the mysterious Room 4…

    Well, the name Jill does disrupt the time/space continuum. It makes me compulsively early. Maybe adding a ‘y’ makes you late……..

    The Boy will be “late” in a different sense if he does that again!

    It’s been nearly 10 years since I last went to Rockworld. When I drove past it recently, it looked like it was just kids with hoodies in the queue to get in…
