A girls night out with Gareth Cliff

By Ruth Cooper

9 Sep 2008

Us girls sauntered off to the new-look Primi Wharf at the V&A on Saturday night to party with a whole bunch of feisty ladies and one Mr Gareth Cliff. The entertainment on show that night was us, (well not so much us ourselves) but lots of the other women attending entertained us by getting up on stage to sing along with the excellent Primi band. Yes it was a karaoke night and in front of Idols judge Gareth Cliff what's more. He wasn't that mean luckily and only made a few nasty comments about some of the more vocally challenged.

A delicious three course meal was served and complimentary bottles of wine were left on each table, which I'm sure contributed to the loosening of the vocal chords for many of the ladies. In fact there were so many karaoke requests there wasn't enough time to fit them all in. For those who did get to sing fantastic prizes were up for grabs courtesy of the V&A shops as well as a lucky draw for those who didn't and those of us not brave enough to jump on stage.

From “I will survive” to “Black Velvet” to “Build me up Buttercup” all our favourite cheesy Karaoke songs were sung. Gareth and his girls from 5FM mc'ed the event and Gareth even graced us with a pretty good rendition of Robbie Williams' “Feel” (even if he did forget some of the words).

All in all it was a very enjoyable girls night out, cheesy music, yummy food, wine, fabulous prizes what more could you want.
