No heart at Home

Last night i had my first rubbish experience of Sydney.

Having moved out of the hostel all the guys that i shared a room with decided to have one last night out as we were all moving on this week so i met up with the Canadian, the mank, the Italian and the 2 swedes at Side Bar and we were going to hit up some bars and say our farewells. The night started great, now i have a job i don't have to drink cheap beer so i was in full glory drinking Vodka and tonics. We made our way down George Street stopping in a few bars along the way when the Canadian suggested we go to Home - a night club at Darling Harbour. These were his precise words 'Sy, this guy (some random guy at the bar) say's that Home is banging tonight do you fancy going there' I reply 'Umm i guess so if everyone else wants to go, but will they let me in with flip flops (thongs) on' the random guy says 'yeah no problem'

So we go to Home around 12 of us in the end. $25 to get in! But i still go. Nothing is said about my choice of footwear. The club itself was ok, music sounded great, lighting was good. There were a few too many chinese boys wearing baseball caps and trying to rave for my liking but it was ok.

I lasted an hour without a ciggy, so went to find a smoking area. I asked a bouncer who kind of grunted and pointed outside. I went out the door and started to puff away when another bouncer came over and put a gate thing in front of my blocking me from getting back.

'Excuse me i have paid (showed him my stamp) im just having a quick fag and then ill be going back in'
'No you won't'
'Im sorry'
'Once you have come out you cannot go back in till 1am' What the fuck?! It was now 12:15pm.
'But all my friends are in there i can't wait out here alone for 45 minutes?'
'Sorry mate nothing i can do'
'Don't you mate me, are you seriously saying you are gonna leave me standing out here for 45 minutes because i came out for a cigarette?'
'Well i cant let you back in anyway as your wearing thongs'

I was absolutely furious - he wasnt listening which made me even worse so in the end i jumped in a taxi and went back to my home, where i was welcomed by smiling faces and a glass of wine.
