Cocktails at Chino Latino Vauxhall

I was at a house party on Friday night and the night before going, I was in one of those stingy moods whilst perusing the alcohol aisle of Asda and I decided, as it was a few quid cheaper than Absolut, to get some suspect vodka brand which I've never heard of.  Unfortunately the £3 I saved, paid me back with a vengeance and I spent the second half of the night nursing the toilet bowl and experiencing that manic head spinning pain only paint stripper could do to you.

Evans and Peel Detective Agency Cocktail Bar Review

Pay day cocktail club this month started pretty awesomely.  I had a meeting with an agency who had a view of the Shard from their meeting room, can't even begin to describe how fantastic that was and I ended the day with meeting my friends for pay day cocktail club at the Evans & Peel detective agency, 310c Earl's Court Road, SW5 9AQ (http://www.evansandpeel.com/).  I found out about this website from www.doingsomething.co.uk but as soon as I saw it, I thought why go with a guy when I could go with the girls.

Cocktails at the Big Chill House & Bounce

For all my boasting that I could drink all day long, I proved this weekend that this definitely is not the case.

It was my best friend's birthday bash and when she announced it was likely we would be drinking for at least 10 hours, I saw this as a personal challenge to survive to the end.  Given my recent cocktail hiatus (unintentional) and also that I only had one cocktail the night before, I thought I best make up for it.

Cocktails in Ninetyeight bar, Shoreditch

As I write this entry, I came to the startling realisation that I didn't have a single cocktail in the whole of January, WTF?!  However, before you think I'm going to be virtuous and say that I had a dry January, it's shamefully been quite the contrary and I've been forsaking my martini glasses in replacement of Grey Goose, Moet and Dom Perignon.  Oh the life of being a minus z list and taking advantage of the fact that I've made a minor appearance on a Saturday night dating program.

Cocktails at All Bar One Reading

This time a year ago, I was like a little skinny rat; a size 4 dress would be a sack on me (anyone wanting to lose a serious amount of weight, go through a traumatising break up, seemed to work for me).  One year on and I've climbed up a few dress sizes (which I'm happy with) and whilst I can attribute some of this through becoming a normal functioning human being once again who eats, a lot of it is largely due to my slight addiction to cocktails and how the frequency has notched up since me being a southerner once more.
