After supper all the excitement kicked off! We walked out of the dining room to be faced with Liam Fox and two of his uniform clad minions. And then, when a few of us were leaving to go to the Ritz Club, Ann Widdecombe walked in – Amazing! Max decided to chat to her while she was trying to get into the lift, she didn’t look too thrilled (this was around midnight), so I apologized and dragged him away from her (I’m becoming so responsible! I must be getting old!).
We then all headed to The Ritz Club – B E A U T I F U L. Seriously, absolutely incredible. It was so ornate, and luxurious and opulent, it was like something out of a film. It was very quiet in there, not many people, we had a drink in the bar before going for a wander around the Casino. After the Ritz it was on to the Savile Club for a couple of hours chatting with friends in the library. It was a great night, had a wonderful time!
I’ve included a couple of photos I found on Google of the Ritz Club and Casino. I really wanted to take some myself while I was there…but didn’t want to look silly and out of place getting my camera out and snapping away :/ lol!
Politicians at the Carlton Club and The Ritz Club.
Last night was the younger member drinks and dinner at the Carlton Club, I was invited by a friend who’s a member. We got there really early, but made the mistake of having a drink upstairs first, so by the time we went to get tickets for dinner they had sold out 🙁 sad times. Alas, we had supper instead, which was so yummy, and surprisingly decently-priced too, only £10 for sausages, chips, gravy and bread. Bargain!
