(Photo taken from Emertont on Flickr)
After spring cleaning the hard drive of a bent out of shape old work computer, that relentless 9-5 dosser Krossie, came across this hungover blast from the worklace past. We too are disappointed that RTE turned down his idea to unite Terror Danjah and Declean Nurney for a Christmas day broadcast called Songs from a Showband Era, but hopefully this tale of drunken woe will shiver the hangover cobwebs and get you through to Stephens... 7.30 pm: Speed off into the frosty night with Kris Kingle present for teacher A safely tucked under arm - thinking "What woman doesn't want the beano annual 2005" 8 pm: – Pub Teacher B (in fetching spider web dress) informs me that she just met Bono drunk in Spar shop. Supplies extremely badly drawn picture and signature in green biro, which she claims the great man "drew" for her. Observe that Bono's writing looks strangely familiar Teacher B refuses to abandon obvious "made up" story. 8.05 pm: Bono's wife Aili Hewson wanders past 8.06 pm: All teachers run to smoking area to touch Bono and obtain partial indulgence (plenary indulgence can be gained by dropping the knee to the great man) 8.08 pm: Loudly declaim to male teachers that Bono tm (net worth 0.55 billion euro) as quote wanker unquote with messianic complex AND an Irish tax exile. Teacher C observes he was in the same charismatic Christian group as saint bono but that his new stuff isn't too good. Reply that only like Adam Clayton cos he takes drugs and is not Christian. Application Teacher C quits unexpectedly and cannot be rebooted Further declaim that bono wife Ali is "ride" and desire to have sexual congress with said Ms Hueston. Note to self-stop drinking. Consume two pints of Guinness 8.30 pm: In restaurant – late. Several teachers ignorant of the Kris kingle – emergency redistribution of "presents" begins. Junior school have TWO Tables – RESULT Text g'fnd important news of great strategic victory G'fnd wishes me g'luck "with ironing" Consume two starters, wine and bottle of miller Further note to self – please stop drinking 10 pm: Main course – duck stuffed with some soft white stuff – absolutely delicious Attempt to begin food fight. Results desultory though achieve direct hit on teacher D's pink pate. RESULT Staff warning one. Further note to self – please stop drinking Desert enjoyed so steal second one Kris kingle stuff distributed to dissatisfaction of almost all. Though teacher A appears reasonably content with beano annual 11 pm: Attempt to drive Teacher C back out of our area into to "senior zone" Teacher C stands ground and continues conversation with Teacher E's tits. 11.30 pm: repair to pub – capture seats – inveigle teachers to sit down. Teachers remain standing. Past pupil is trapped by drunken teachers but eventually manages to sidle away with "I pity you look" attached to face. 12 am: Attempt to chat up teacher F. Teacher F appears vaguely interested. Text g'fnd that teacher F is attempting to chat me up. No reply. 12.10 am VERY loudly declaim to male, female teachers, past pupils and staff that Bono tm (net worth 0.55 billion euro) is a wanker with messianic complex, Christian, wealthy ass hole AND an Irish tax exile. Further repeat claim that bono wife Ali is "ride" and desire to have sexual congress with said. Note to self-probably too late to stop drinking. Consumption 2 pints Guinness – one bought by Teacher G's husband. Teacher H is getting off with teacher I's fiancée – teacher I too drunk to notice 12.20 am: Lead posse from pub of teachers J, K and L. Teacher J very drunk. 12.25 am: Achieve successful entry into club despite Teacher J's best attempts to prevent. Nature of club: Not bad – good DJ mixing (and beat matching) New Order, Britiny (toxic yeah!) Kenny Logins plus rnb and disco classics 12.30-1.30 am: Consume unknown quantity Guiness continue half hearted attempts on Teacher F plus Teachers M and N. Teacher N seems amenable but continues to flash huge ring with set diamonds in one's face for some strange reason. Teacher J grabbing punters by the neck in attempt to initiate romantic liaisons. Punters unimpressed and one attempts combat. Teacher J is narrowly rescued. Note to self continue drinking shure, shure you'll be grand Punter who attacked teacher J earlier now attempting to get off with him. 1.45 am: Drunk woman spills pint on teacher K. Teacher K expresses vague wish to respond with violence against punter's boyfriend. Point out size of b'fnd. Notice b'fnd is attempting to clean up under table. Further note that floor is covered with white powder -->[if !supportLists]-->- -->[endif]-->Very the season Why even wait for the jacks to get the cocaine into ya? 2.20 am: – Teachers have achieved mystical union in giant ruck on dance floor – feel mildly depressed at sharp contrast between cheery Christmas tunes and cokey punters – exit with Teacher K complaining about past teacher A and former career. Past teacher A has earlier accosted me with mistle tow earlier so feel vaguely disposed to drunken defence. Insert teacher k in taxi. Text message from teacher F. Teacher F thinks me sweet but "already seeing someone" Scroll through texts and note that boastful message about Teacher F coming on to me that I sent to g'fnd was, was, in fact, instead sent directly to teacher F herself. Achieve congress with bike and drunkingly and illegally make for home. ???? am: Accosted by small dog Take dog on in exciting death race Dog wins ???? am: Phone call from teacher B asking to "call up to mine" for a while ?.01 am: Succeed in breaking phone Labels: fiction, guest bloggers, Krossie, Rant, Xmas
