I never really "got" clubbing (I don't enjoy drinking and it was never as much fun being the sober one when everyone was getting drunk!) but my husband did. He went to raves in fields in the middle of nowhere and his descriptions of this make me realise that you're right, the collective positive energy really did put everyone on a high!Amandahttp://thefamilypatch.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4269818854687226287.post-45219822284562864732012-06-26T23:26:18.155+01:002012-06-26T23:26:18.155+01:00Beautiful post and so spot on.
