Guy Ritchie is back to enjoying the single life. The single life consists of partying at the pub Guy owns in London called The Punchbowl. He held a private lock-in at the pub with his close friends, including a newly clean-shaven Jude Law. According to The Daily Mail, Jude arrived and left with a “mystery blonde”.

What were they celebrating? A mix of things. Guy just got a new place in London, and that was cause for celebration because he had been living in a small flat post-divorce. They were probably also celebrating the completion of the never-ending production of the Sherlock Holmes movie, though Robert Downey Jr. didn’t join them. The Daily Mail has more:

Guy Ritchie is clearly enjoying the perks of owning his own pub… hosting lock-ins. In a jubilant mood after wrapping filming on his upcoming Sherlock Holmes movie, Guy joined the film’s Dr Watson, Jude Law to celebrate at his London pub.

Three months after his acrimonious divorce from Madonna, it looks like the 40-year-old director is loving his single life. Guy was clearly in the mood to party after moving into his new bachelor pad earlier that day.

The director was seen unloading a van with his furniture and belongings to a new home in a private Mews, not far from his pub. As living temporarily in a flat above his production company offices since his split from Madonna last autumn, Guy was thrilled to have a place to call home again and decided to mark the event with a drinking session.

After the Punchbowl pub in Mayfair closed to punters at 11pm, Guy carried on drinking with friends and staff till 4.30am this morning. Despite the public break up of his seven-year marriage to The Material Girl, Guy did little to hide his joy as he downed drinks and had an impromptu karaoke session.

We’re told: ‘Guy was definitely in high spirits last night. He was laughing and joking throughout the whole night. He was surrounded by a host of mates in the pub, who also enjoyed the private lock-in. The drinks were flowing freely and, at one point in the evening, they started singing along to a number of songs – but perhaps it’s understandable that there were no Madonna classics playing.’

When he finally stumbled out into his waiting Range Rover, a happy Guy cheered and gave the peace sign to photographers outside.

Also along for the impromptu drinking session was Jude, who arrived with a mystery blonde woman at 2am. Notable missing from Jude’s top lip was the moustache he had grown to play Dr Watson.

After wrapping filming last month, Jude clearly couldn’t wait to be fuzz free again and shaved off his facial hair. But it appeared Jude couldn’t match Guy’s energy and was looking worse for wear when he left the pub alone an hour later.

Noticeably absent for the Sherlock reunion was Jude’s co-star Robert Downey Jnr, who plays the Victorian detective. After visiting London last month to attend the Baftas, Robert is now filming comedy Master Mind with Ben Stiller.

All of this has me wondering if Guy Ritchie really “won” the divorce battle with Madonna. He most likely got more money than Madge wanted to give him, and he seems to have won the public relations aspect of the divorce, possibly by quietly feeding negative information about Madonna to the press and tabloids. But while she is living it up with a string of high-profile lovers including Alex Rodriguez and Jesus Luz the 22-year-old Brazilian model, Guy is just being a drunken bloke. Who can blame him?

Here’s Guy Ritchie moving into his “luxiurious new bachelor pad” in London yesterday. Fame notes that “a mystery brunette was also seen leaving the house earlier that day,” and has a picture of her. He sure seems to have a lot of mystery women in his life lately. Images thanks to Fame.com.
