Bongo's Bingo

Went to Bongo's Bingo with Sarah and met up with her work mates on Thursday night.

I've been once before last year with Holly for her sister's birthday. I didn't drink last time as I was in work the morning after but I did this time as I booked Friday off. Didn't want to drink before the marathon next week but I had the day off and as Sarah works at Camp and Furnace drinks were half price so I thought I'll have a couple. But I've said it many times before - drinking most definitely is not for me. I've decided I'm just not made for drinking liquids never mind alcohol. But definitely not alcohol. Sarah some how got me to do a shot of tequila and that was it - game over I couldn't drink no more after that.

We went into town and met up with mate from work Ryan and went for a drink at Wetherspoons. Then we walked down to Camp and Furnace as her table was only booked till 7.

Plenty more photos like this... What happens when Sarah leaves her phone on the table unattended with me.

Bongo's Bingo is definitely a crazy night out if you want it to be and an experience. It's good the first time you go but since I've been before I don't think it's that good when you go again as the format is exactly the same.

The prizes aren't that great like there wasn't anything I actually wanted to win. There were bottles of alcohol - Apple Sourz, Gin, a Henry Hoover, mobility scooter, space hopper, giant unicorn teddy, Philip Schofield cardboard cutout, Disney Princess doll set and I can't remember what the other prizes were but the last game for a full house was flights, accommodation and tickets to Bongo's Bingo in Ibiza. Definitely the best prize to win. 

They have a ticket raffle as well when you get your bingo book where you win actual cash money if you answer the question right on stage. Only 2/4 people won even though the questions weren't even hard and it was multiple choice. I would have got them right!

If you're from Liverpool you would have read all about Bongo's Bingo and Camp and Furnace having a fight over who created it as from August on wards they're not being hosted by Jonny Bongo. The night started off with Jonny Bongo doing a little speech about it and the last question for the raffle to win £1700 was "Who created Bongo's Bingo?" and the options were A) Camp and Furnace B) Pete Price C) Jonny Bongo D) Kev Seed

The answer was C) Jonny Bongo and the girl got it right and won the money. It's one of the weirdest fights that isn't going to end any time soon or nicely. 

So glad I booked the day off work yesterday as I was so tired even though I had a proper good lie in. That tequila fully killed me off - never again. Sarah got me another one and I was like nope no chance. When they were doing shots it was making me want to be sick. Considering I had a very unproductive day I did go the gym to sweat out the alcohol and try to keep my fitness up for the marathon next week. It's officially 8 days. Last run tomorrow and that's it I should be ready (?) for the big race!

Ya Nan's Big Quiz

Had early birthday celebrations yesterday as it's my birthday weekend! It's my 25th birthday on Bank Holiday Monday - I am officially old! Quarter of a century, half way to 50... The next box up in the age category. 

It started off with work - my team decorated my desk and we've started birthday club so they got me a card, got a speech which made it sound like I was leaving and got £31.50! It's always weird that on your birthday you have to take stuff in - so they wanted Chinese food made by nanny Wing which was never going to happen but instead I slaved away on Thursday night after the gym at 8pm to make them scones! Probably the best I've made which I'm really glad as they all seemed to enjoy them!

After work I went to Ya Nan's Big Quiz & Sing Along at the Camp and Furnace with Holly, Danielle, Sarah and Tracy. It's like Bongo's Bingo but with a quiz! We went to Sarah's for pre drinks then went into town.

Jules and her chicken Wing's!

In between the quiz they had different games - a raffle then higher or lower if you wanted to gamble your prize to win cash. I got to choose the raffle tickets twice but still failed to pick the tickets we had out! Then cash karaoke and blind date!

We had 2 team names Jules and her Chicken Wing's (should've won best team name but Fuck Trump did - fair) and It's a marathon not a sprint. 

WE WON THE QUIZ!!! WE'RE GOING TO BLACKPOOL!!!

Ya nan shouted winners... It's a marathon not a sprint and I just jumped onto the stage!!! Can't believe we actually won the quiz and we're going to Blackpool!!

It's ya nan!

Sarah knows the 2 DJ's Sean and Nick! People thought it was fixed cos they reserved the table for us at the front in the middle and I got a birthday shout out but we actually did get all the questions right apart from like 3 that we didn't know! Sarah's been before and never won! We won fair and square!!

After we went next door to the Camp and Furnace where the house band played.

Dele Alli challenge

Me and Holly have won 4/5 pub quizzes we have done so it turns out we make a pretty good team but it was all 5 of us that won it!! Tracy left early before it finished cos she was in work this morning so missed us finding out that we won. But we're all going to Blackpool in the next couple of weeks! Sarah's never been to Blackpool before and I've never been to the fair only to see the lights!

Me and Sarah both made it to the gym this morning at 10am we only did 50 minutes of back though we are so tired and she's got work at 3pm but what's a hangover?

Had the best night last night and wining just made it! Had so much fun and definitely need to do it again!! Thanks team and Holly for the macrons love you all maybe turning 25 won't be so bad after all!
