I went to Liverpool Town alone. I went to see the temporary ice-rink to see costs etc, and I saw an Alpine bar too.
I decided to have a drink first before ice-skating, no sooner had I walked in the bar , the door had not even closed behind me, there was a gentleman standing right in front of me saying hello. We had a chat, he is going through a divorce too, he bought me a drink, and we chatted some more.
Little did I know, he was there with his new 33 yr old girlfriend, she was sitting down. The bloke, went away while I was talking to a mother and her daughter, the girfriend then joined us. She looked a little unkempt, and perhaps older than me on account she was a smoker.
They were totally sloshed, I was thinking my goodness what am I doing here? I thought I was going to get my lights punched out. But I don't think the g/f was compos mentis, about her b/f hitting on me and buying me a drink, besides the hunky door man was watching over us.
I finished my drink, and went for a walk over to the ice-rink. I asked directions and chatted to some nice guys. One was Polish, I was in the Polish as a JW, I still speak some now. So we were chatting away, and he hit on me. He kept saying i was pretty, until I responded. He is only 21, what a couger I am hey. Well I just went off, not really my style. I want to remain chaste.
By this time it was too late to skate, they wer closing down for the night.
I went back to the bar, chatted to a couple of girls, and told them about being a JW, and they showed a genuine interest. By about 8.45, I was tired out. I got in and called Angus and Jane, we had a Baileys over the phone and a good old chit chat, 'till late.
It was a nice evening, better than going to the KH.
