Roller Skating Party

Fun. Laughter. Smile. Alcohol. Pain.

We went to Vauxhall Roller Disco for my 21st birthday and before we even left, we had already started on the alcohol, which was an omen for how the rest of the night was going to go. We all got on the train rather loudly. You know that group of tipsy people that are so loud all the carriage can hear them? Yep, that was us last night. Then we made it to Vauxhall and my sister told the bouncer it was my birthday and he gave me a special ticket to get light up skates, which were awesome! 

The second the skates were on, the fear in people's eyes showed by not being able to stand up and skate. There were only a select few that were stable enough on their feet to go skating by themselves, but unfortunately, I was not one of them. I had to be escorted from the seating area to the bar in order to get myself another drink. The more people drunk, the more they loosened up and was able to risk going on the skating rink to roller skate.

People took turn in holding other's hands to skate round to make sure that everyone got the full experience of skating. The amount of drinks consumed meant that the guys were very happy to experiment with skating on their own, which in turn meant a lot of them were on their bums or backs the second they got to stand up. 

I did fall over twice on my bum that has left a sizeable bruise this morning. It hurts to sit down but it was such a good night! I had a great night and even though I couldn't skate, I was more than thankful for people that took me round holding my hand. All in all, I think it was a great experience and a perfect way to spend my 21st birthday. I've had all the experiences of getting wasted and not remembering the night but I wanted something a little different for this night and I did get that. I'm so glad everyone who came had a good night and enjoyed themselves too. 

I'm not sure roller skating will be on the cards anytime soon but it's an experience I've done and I won't forget in a hurry.

Love you all!

I shall put pictures up when I can get hold of them

Also, a massive Happy Father's Day to all the Dad's out there. A big special one to my wonderful Dad and my late Grandad. Two of the best men in my life. So lovely and funny with a whole lot of love to give! You're the best
