What to do on a Wednesday night? There's nothing on the telly, the rain is beating down and - well - you just have to get out of the house. We set off to see who else would be brave enough to venture out in this weather...

Our first stop was amongst the ever-welcoming twinkling lights of Masquerade where we found plenty of smiling faces. Candi Take-It was keeping everyone entertained with a mix of camp and chart hits - the new Madonna tune clearly being a favourite. The odd dance tune was thrown in too. Oh, and I'm sure I remember a blast of Mariah's "All I want for Christmas"... well, it's nearly here.

The drinks were cheap - and branded - and the crowd quite mixed, but all up for a good time. In fact, we saw a lot of them again later on in Superstar Boudoir. But before heading there, we went to experience what was on offer at the Curzon...

We found quite a spacious bar and some interesting graffiti before heading upstairs for a quick game of nearly-naked pool. Unfortunately, it didn't appear to be open, so we hung around on the stairs for a couple of minutes trying not too look too foolish as we walked out through the bar.

Superstar Boudoir welcomed us to the sounds of Good Life and, although the bar staff were a bit camera shy, the crowd were more than up for getting involved.

For everyone who asked us for a keyring, don't forget you can order keyrings, mugs, mousemats and prints online by clicking 'buy this photo'! Make great Christmas presents!
