Refused red knickers
It was mid-December, just before Christmas, and I was out with a friend. We'd just been to see Bad Manners, and had a brilliant time. Buster was as ever a fantastic entertainer, and as always good for a chat and a drink afterwards. Given that it was late, my friend and I were on our way home. Only to bump into a couple of female friends of ours. One of whom wanted me to stay out for more drinks. Badly. However, I was tired, out of cash and didn't want to ruin a good night. Verbal persuasion wasn't working on my, offers of drinks were politely refused, and pleading was being ignored. I really didn't want to go to any clubs, as in Wakefield that usually means shitty dance clubs and expensive drinks. All I wanted was to get home, have a couple of cans and maybe a smoke, and then to bed.

But this wouldn't wash with my friend, oh no. So she tried to flirt with me instead. Now, I'm not the best at flirting as I've already admitted several times. I am in fact something of a spastic flidmong when it comes to flirting. Really, really bad. She, however, was worse. Now the girl in question wasn't too bad looking, but she was starting to piss me off. And then she tried her final gambit. "Please stay out Jim, look I've got red knickers on!". I suppose they had the added bonus of matching her slutty Mrs Claus outfit, I guess. But, whatever. I'm guessing she thought it would work on me, or something. What she didn't bank on was me saying "Congratulations, but it's not like I'll be seeing them crumpled on my bedroom floor now, is it?", and turning off into the night, leaving my friend to explain the situation.

She still hasn't lived it down.

You mean to say
You turned down the attractions of Mustang Sally's? Or Buzz?

Actually, I see where you're coming from now.

One thing that absolutely winds me up is girls who blatently use being a girl to try and get what they want
Generally drinks.

I have been asked outright "Well aren't you going to buy me a drink?"

FFS.

Not any more.

And then...
...they get all offended when you ask "Depends. Are you going to shag me?"

It's just a simple question to assess the probability of return on investment.

You sure this was Wakey?
I'd expect to be able to see her knickers or her not to be wearing any. Has Wakey gone up-market now? Is Parrots still there?

Definitely Wakey
Although going out at night looks like a scene from a George Romero movie, only with more vomit.

Not sure about Parrots though.
