Ben's 2.3

Everybody had already made different plans for Christmas Day so we decided to have the Christmas dinner on Christmas Eve instead. It coincided with Chinese Ben’s Birthday so there were over 40 of us in the lobby for dinner and Ben got very very drunk. He went bright pink half way through the meal having already consumed copious amounts of alcohol, and started chucking up at 9, then preceding passing out. I decided there and then, no way Jose, am I gonna be that wasted and chucking up on my 21^st birthday. I do not want to be that ill…ever. Anyway, we exchanged Secret Santa pressies, I was Secret Santa to Lauren and Alex was my Secret Santa. It took me ages to find pressies for Lauren with our budget of a fiver, but in the end I got her some incense, a wooden burner and a pretty hair clip. I was very pleased with that. Alex, bless him, bought me some socks, some bath stuff and a really cute toothbrush holder. Now, we weren’t supposed to know the identity of our Secret Santa, hence the name, but Alex gave it away cos he tried to “subtly” ask me if I’d liked my pressies. Dead giveaway!
