Well, I hate to break it to earnest young men in beanies everywhere, but you are perfectly capable of considering a house and mortgage and still go out dancing till the sun comes up.
I fully acknowledge that, for some people in their thirties and beyond, going out clubbing – let alone doing it twice in a row – is the definition of hell. There are probably some people in their twenties who don’t fancy it much either, hence why they’re queueing up to opine about the age-appropriateness of people like me hitting the clubs.
I’m being harsh, though given my love of a late night, it’s understandable that I would rather opt for a crowded dance floor than a solitary takeaway. In fact, I would argue that it is your patriotic duty as a Brit to go clubbing. Nightclubs are as British as Red Arrow flyovers and cream teas – it’s just that nobody thinks of them in that way.

But the UK is the birthplace of northern soul all-nighters and Blitz club kids. In the 90s, repetitive beats lured thousands of people to illegal raves. The pull to dance in British culture is so strong that South Asian kids snuck out of their homes for decades to put on daytimers – underground bhangra clubs held in the daylight hours so their parents wouldn’t notice.
While clubs – both historically and in the present day – are generally populated by the young, that doesn’t mean there aren’t older folks queueing up at the door or even running the night.
As we get older, it might become even more important for our brains and our bodies to go out for a good dance.
On my second night out in a row this weekend, I knew when to call it quits when a remix of “You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)” only induced mild back pain as opposed to a euphoric, hands-in-the-air moment the DJ intended. Back-ache in the club, unfortunately, is one of the few things that you can’t escape from in your thirties. For everything else, just remember that age is nothing but a number.
