Another leaving do. Isabelle (head of table) got 7 months out of her contract and i
s the fourth or fifth (I've lost count) of the audio team to be axed. She actually finishes on Tuesday 31st of March, so I'll miss out on croissants on that day, as there's a far more important engagement back in Manchester, which is where I'll be. We all met up in a Mexican restaurant for the obligatory meal before the party got underway properly. Interestingly a couple of the previous victims turned up too, though not all, as it seems there is some selective 'keeping in touch' going on. The main thing I remember about this evening is that a night club basically opened up out of the floor after the restaurant business had finished. The owners simply carried the tables and chairs
away and the music got turned up, and the captive audience simply got on with the next stage. There were also quite a lot of English people in the (by now) bar too, which made it more interesting from a lone English male perspective. At the end of a busy night of partying, a few carried on to another night club, as they often seem to do, to continue until 5 AM. I didn't because, (1) I'm too old for that, and (2) I had a flight to catch on Saturday at 11AM, and I would be up at pretty much my normal workday schedule. Next week would be very hectic, as I would have 5 birthdays to deal with, and one if not 2, leaving does to squeeze in.
