Weekend Jottings.....Bargaining at the Bar

This weekend was quite hectic with the birthday of Iyer's special friend. We celebrated the birthday at a nice cozy bar atop a hill. Then after that we headed out to shake our bonbons at
a happening club in town....as it turned out the minimum entry age for guys was 26. So as usual we made our plans to look cool and older than 26. But things didn't quite work out as the lady at the entrance to the club could do her math and find our ages.

As usual Iyer tried out his word play on her and the hilarious conversation went something like this

Bar Girl at the Entrance: Sir, the age limit is 26
so Iyer gives her his ID and says
Iyer: How much is that?
Things didn't work out as expected
Bar Girl at the Entrance: Step out sir
Another desperate attempt
Iyer: Come on ma'am, 25 can right
Bar Girl at the Entrance:But Sir, your only 24

Well that ended all our hopes and we headed out to another place cursing the girl and her math teacher.

In many instances like this, use the girls' power. Once there was a long queue at the club, a lady client simply walked to the entrance, showed the face, and said she was there with a few girlfriends and a guy....no need to queue, no need to check the id, way you go ppl....:)
