I found myself getting quite excited about the new series of Doctor Who. Not actually about the series but about my Facebook Invitation to see the show at the Retro Bar. As Sean was off to Portsmouth for the weekend I found myself getting more and more excited about the night out ahead. I would see old friends and there was always a flirtatious air of excitement about Doctor Who en masse. Well, Retro Bar - what a let down. It was lovely to see Lloyd again and the excitement mounted as the Timelord countdown began. There were even people there in costume, which was a little bit scary. But that was that. The bar did not open till 5.30pm and directly after the programme everybody left. There should have been prizes for the best fancy dress; Dr Who Quizes; Galifray Cocktails; it was a marketing mans wet-dream that was completely ignored. We weren't even allowed to watch Dorothy afterwards!!! For crying out loud, so many of her friends were there that night.
Make an effort, Retro bar or next time I'll go to the Griffin for the evening.
