1st Night Out

Tonight I went to my first English pub.  There was a pretty important "football" (soccer) game going on, so the pub was crammed with dudes.  About a 20/1 ratio, no kidding.  Apparently English gulls aren't very keen on footly arts.  But a strange thing happened- guys actually talked to other guys like friends.  None of this LA looking around to see who's next to talk to or if a celebrity walked in.  Christian's friends really were interested in who I was and why I was on "holiday".  (I love all these English sayings).  The cask ale I had was almost room temperature- apparently the way it's intended here.  I gotta say, I missed cold beer.  Not to worry- Ireland is 2 weeks away.  Here's a picture with no people:



The soccer game was a draw, and to celebrate, we all sat out in 40 degree weather and drank white wine outside of a perfectly warm and newly emptied pub.  Don't ask me.  I'm just traveling through.   Here's me and new friends:

Hey Brian - Glad to hear you're having a blast so far. We'll especially miss you in the show this week - we have an NKOTB sketch and could use your choreography skills!
