Man posts personal best on Valentines day
Thursday, 01 March 2001 12:00
AUCKLAND: Newmarket man Clinton Berry celebrated Valentines day by drinking 22 bottles of Stienlager, setting a new weeknight personal best in the process. Berry (25) had originally intended taking Girlfriend of four years Sherry Blackmore out for dinner at Parnell restaurant Non Solo Pizza, but never got around to making the bookings.

A hastily arranged drinks evening at home was organised by Berry, but failed to capture the imagination of Blackmore (22) who boycotted the event and went to stay at her sisters flat in Mount Eden.

Blackmore could not be reached for comment, but sources close to the part-time waitress stated that "she was sick of his shit" and that if plans went ahead for Berry's "Back-Yard Yard" party, then that would definitely be it between them. It is further understood that Ms Blackmore would not be joining Mr Jackson for his post-record celebration drinkies at The Clatter on Friday evening.
