FRIDAY 19th DECEMBER : FUMING

The Lady and I went round to her friend Amelia's for dinner. She cooked for 8 of us and the grub was pretty good (do the Americans pronounce Payeya or Paella?? - everyone did the latter but that doesn't say much). After three bottles of wine she didn't bring out anymore of the bottles (we had brought!) By desert/10pm she's got our coats on.

The Lady, her friend Stace and I decide to have a quick drink and an after dinner fag at our old fave Bar & Books on Hudson. I meet one of the guys I'm doing a pitch for and he thanks me for the work and says he's paid for our drinks! Pleased! I asked (around) for the check to pretend to the Lady that I was paying. But, I was presented a bill - not for any drinks but for 25 dollars tobacco charge! For four drinks! I start a coughing fit...
