When you go out

What's your typical night out? Do you start in your house/mates' house and then go on to a pub then a club?
And also, if one of your mates got knocked back for being too drunk and you got in - would you leave them to it or leave and go with them?
And finally - what is the sole aim of your nights out? To hook up/have a bit of fun or to just have a good night out?
To answer my own questions - It depends on the people I go out with, with one we usually go to one of the houses to get started and then leave to a club. The other we just go straight there. Usually stay in once club and then move on (if we can still stand)
Regarding the KB's - Same as question one, it differs! With one we all stick together and the other it's every man/woman for him/herself
And I always go out with the intention of having a good night out

The second one isn't applicable to me, has never happened. My friends don't really drink.
I go out with the intention of seeing my friends and having a good time.
Then, depending on what we're celebrating/doing, we might call into a few other places, but ultimately, we end up in a crappy 'club' called Zanzibar, which most students around here adore, but ultimately, is awful
Then after that, we tend to sit outside the Wimpy waiting for a taxi with food from the horrible takeaways outside Zanzibar, that only taste good when completely off your head.
So predictable, but we love it. Can't wait for Friday.
EDIT: Sole aim is definetly for a girly night out, every time, or to cheer one of us up.
Start getting ready.
Have a few drinks.
Have some base.
Call a cab.
Go round a few bars.
Go to the club.
Back to a party.
Bed and hopefilly sex Monday morning.
Typical Sat night.
Usually, start in the local, meet up with everyone local - drink / drugs start.
Move on into town, few bars, more drink / drugs . Meet non-local mates.
Decide on club.
Drink Drugs continue, crazy dancing and chatting shit.
Leave back to after party - more drink/drugs either pull/pass out or both.
Wake up Sat - home for shower and change - back in pub for lunch!
The serious 'get hammered' session usually reaches it's peak in the club, so noone gets kb's. If they did, we'd prob just go to another club, wouldn't leave a mate in town, unless they were that bad they wanted to go home, then i'd get them a cab.
Reason for going out - to hopefully pull and definetely get trashed!
Depends on the crowd I'm with.
If I'm with a crowd then I'll probably start at Lloyds or Bar Buddha, then maybe onto either Walkabout or Sports Cafe, somewhere with a bit of atmosphere and a couple of pool tables.
If I'm with my lonely miserable mate who doesn't like networking, usually sit in an old mans pub like Rhoderick Dhu's all night while he tells me about some girl who touched his shoulder a week past Tuesday or something and how he thought he was in there.
Nope, all for one and one for all.
Have to be honest here and say it's usually me who gets custard pied off bouncers for being too drunk. I always convince people to go to cheesy places like The Garage, where the bouncers are wanks by the way, or Buffallo Joes where I get ogled to fuck cause we're the only ones under 40.
Anyway, I'd never leave people on their own if they got knocked back. Even worse, my miserable mate sometimes buggers off home when I'm off my face after the club. Managed to get hit by a car walking home on my own the other week, and I got jumped on Saturday night walking home.
If I'm out with girls, I make sure they get in a taxi and stuff.
Just to have a good time and a laugh, not to get pilled off my face and spend the next day bragging about how many drugs I did. I do get girls coming up to me but I've no real interest in pulling for the sake of it, I always feel shit after a one night stand anyway :no:
Usually start at my place. I live with some of my friends so yanno, with an off licence across the road, its easy to just have a few drinks before we go out. Its cheaper innit
I would leave and go with them. I'd never leave a friend on their own.
Also, it would be pretty tight of me to do that seeing as I've been knocked back to get into places in the past and my friends have always stuck by me
The aim of my nights out is to just have a really good time with my friends. I never go out with the intention to pull but yanno, it does happen. Its always to have a good time with my friends though because I don't really get to go out with them much anymore due to being a shitty final year student :grump:
I've heard AWFUL things about that place
Are you really male?
Get taxi to club
Get in club, Drop first pill
Dance til the club closes at 5am
Go to an afterparty and depending how good it is/drugs available stay there til mid morning- lunch time.
Taxi home
Dodge eye contact with parents
Sleeeeeeeeeeep
The main aim of my night is to get wired and to dance.
Its not likely to happen that we won't get into a club. Although last year my mate was knocked backbecause she was a bit wasted so of course we went somewhere else with her.
I will sometimes meet up with a couple of mates and have some beers at mine, but since I moved I'm not living quite as close to them now.
As for if a mate didn't get in, then we would always go somewhere else unless it was something we had booked tickets for or something, then you don't have much choice.
generally id go to a friends house and maybe have a drink or two before getting train into city centre and club - stay there all night (unless the club in question is very rubbish!) before drunkenly heading off to chip alley and eating my own body weight in chips and cheese.. and sometimes gravy on top!
if im going to the pub or union we'll generally just head straight there and maybe go off to a friends' house to carry on drinking afterwards
Nice
Its probably because you're a guy. As a girl I would never leave my girl mates or feel bad if they didn't get in somewhere (probably because its highly unlikely). But guys.. well they can look after themselves and I'd probably be more pissed off if they were too wasted or didn't dress right.
Make myself look half-decent
Chill here for a bit with my mates and get drunk on the cheap
Go to a couple of bars
Go to a club (what kind of club depends on what mates I'm with)
Get completely demented
Go back to a mate's gaff or an afterparty
Get home, avoiding any kind of chatter with my Dad/brother
Sleeeeeeeeeeep all day
And also, if one of your mates got knocked back for being too drunk and you got in - would you leave them to it or leave and go with them?
We would all just move on somewhere else, no big deal. It rarely happens anyway.
And finally - what is the sole aim of your nights out? To hook up/have a bit of fun or to just have a good night out?
To have an immense amount of fun, to get completely out of my tree and to just generally have a laugh with my mates. And to dance!!!
Yeah, I have no problem with being myself in that respect but it's like, game over for me but if they moved on then I could get in somewhere else, y'know?
Why wouldn't you get in tho ?
I'm not surprised. It is shockingly awful, but unfortunetly it's the best place to get my underage mates into
None of us have ever been too drunk that we've be turned away from a club - tbh, there aren't many clubs here that would turn you away lol.
My sole aim for going out is to have a break from home - I'm at home most of the time when I'm not at college, so it's nice to socialise with people my own age/similar interests (when it's a rock venue).
I like to dance, sing and have a good night. I never go out to hook up, it's not for me!
No one has been turned away with me before but if it did I would probably just go somewhere else.
My aim for nights out is just to relax, have a few drinks and socialise and chat with friends. (that is why I don't like clubbing much!) It is never to get drunk or pull.
At uni, i have a few beers with the people I live with, then heard off to another student halls to meet up with more people and drink up more beverages.
We then stumble into town about midnight, and have a drink at a somewhere like barisa or varsity, move on to a club for a few hours max. By 3 or 4 we are looking for late licence bars/ casino and often entertaining ourselfs by chanting at the most drunk person. We never get rejected from anywhere, we are too cool
Haha. Don't they send you texts all the time so you come?
Underage mates. Tut tut
lol, who gets rejected from bar risa or varsity anyway?
good point, no one does. Doesnt stop me being too cool though, i once nearly go refused entry from Fabric, London for being dressed too smart:cool:
Only if you're a "Gold Card" member. Which is meant to sound really posh and privledged, but they're just giving away. Me and my mates have signed up 6 times in one night before. (Jesus and Santa Claus are both gold card holders). They've texted me three times this week though.
And don't even get me started on my underage mate. She uses my passport and gets away no questions, but I have to confirm all the details on my own driving licence
