I think that was the most drunken night ever.
Andy's Japanese themed party took place in our dormitory. Us girls all
wore our lovely yukata. Mine's black with pink cherry blossoms and red
cherries, Sabine's has the same design but in beige, Ellie's is
purple chequered, Saranne's is pink chequered and Helen got a very smart
blue one from a proper kimono shop (and she even tied her own obi, which
looked amazing). We all looked gorgeous.

At first we had shabu-shabu, which is basically just a hodge-podge of
boiled meat and veg. Was pretty tasty. And after that came drinking games.
We played drinking Pop-Up Pirate for over an hour (that is, if you make
the pirate pop up, you have to down half as many fingers as swords stuck
in the barrel), and then played a Japanese card game in which, if you draw
the King, you make other people do a forfeit. Very fun!

Playing Drinking Pop-Up Pirate. Saranne's the one in
the pink yukata, and you can just see Helen in
her high quality blue one in the background.

The food! We initially had four hotplates on the go at
one point, until we blew out most of the fuses! It's interesting to point
out that this room as a strictly "no food/drink" rule...

Ellie decides that Andy's baseball cap would be the
perfect compliment to her yukata....
By the end of it all, birthday boy Andy was so pissed he had to be carried
to bed, as did Ellie. And the rest of us are all very drunk too.
It was an awesome night. And now my yukata is incredibly skew-iff.
