Busy, Empty, Busy...

Well a while has gone by since I last posted and a lot of things have just been the same but with different people. With one week having people still sat at the top bar when you go to work at 9am who were there at 10pm the previous night and hadn’t moved from their stools. Those who are that drunk that they don’t know how much they’re spending or how much they’re tipping the barman. To the next week being dead and barely anyone here, when the dance floor is normally packed there are only a couple of people on and a couple more when the smoke machine goes on.

During the ouzo circle there is Greek dancing and a table and chair with lots of bottles of drink get lifted up by someone using their teeth, the other night Dr. George did some Greek dancing and did the table lifting, which doesn’t happen very often, and so he got a big round of applause.

Wednesday nights are now wildcard Wednesdays for the staff and you pick out a random piece of paper out of a hat and it has a task on that you must complete that night such as “convince someone you used to be of the opposite sex”, “every time some says yamas you have to flash”  etc…

One of the new events is Match Maker Monday and after dinner you go down stairs sign up and get given a number, you then walk around do whatever for about 30mins with your number somehow attached to you, after that everyone has to go on to the dance floor and they do a woman’s parade, then a men’s parade and each person is given a piece of paper and they can write down 3 different numbers of people they like. A few staff then spend 10 minutes filling in a big chart, and then checking the chart to see if any matches have been made where 2 people have put down each other’s numbers. This week was the first week we ran it and we had nearly 100 people sign up and 14 successful matches, so over all it went well.

Last night I learnt that Romanians play pool with completely different rules to what I’m used to and when you pot the ball just before the black one, then whichever pocket you pot that ball into, you can only pot the black ball into the opposite pocket.

Tonight is meant to be karaoke and song request night which should be interesting as once again it is the first time it has been run. Starting to worry a bit as its only 13days to exam results.
