h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

...or how to accidentally get borracho:

Usually, the work of the week is done on fridays, let's say 5 p.m., and your leaving
your working place for home.

It happens, like it did to me last night, that people meet before they leave.

A brasilian fellow at my department invited everybody to a Caipirinha party. (He is very lucky at the moment, because his wife visits him in the middle of his 5 months stay abroad)
However, some chaps like me were hanging out until the last drop of Caipirinha (and what ever followed from hidden places in the other fellows' desks...). So we, the hanging out people, just didn't want to stop on half the way to the hangover.
And this is the advantage of bars in Spain: they're open until... ? a.m.
We went for a decent tour through an Irish Pub and several Tapas Bars ending up at a small pit of a bar with a music box and dancing folks.

And all of them I'll meet again on Monday at work, smiling I assume!
