N. were you st0ned when you recorded your little message?

― CarsmileSteve (CarsmileSteve), Thursday, 16 September 2004 10:10 (twenty-one years ago)

Not in the least!

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 16 September 2004 10:16 (twenty-one years ago)

So a lot?

― the neurotic rassafrassa of harrumph (blueski), Thursday, 16 September 2004 10:17 (twenty-one years ago)

I was not stoned or drunk or anything. I was just bored.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 16 September 2004 10:20 (twenty-one years ago)

I think the whole ILx calendar should be available in a "Read by Alba" format. With the old Alan 'Fluff' Freeman Top 40 music playing in the background.

― Jerry the Nipper (Jerrynipper), Thursday, 16 September 2004 10:27 (twenty-one years ago)

How old is Alan Freeman now? He seems to have been old forever.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 16 September 2004 10:29 (twenty-one years ago)

77!

"And with that all important FAP on the 22nd, it's...Alba!" I loved Alan Freeman's chart rundowns.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Thursday, 16 September 2004 11:52 (twenty-one years ago)

alright?

― the neurotic rassafrassa of harrumph (blueski), Thursday, 16 September 2004 11:53 (twenty-one years ago)

Not 'arf.

― Jerry the Nipper (Jerrynipper), Thursday, 16 September 2004 12:01 (twenty-one years ago)

That was really sweet Nick, even if I did keep expecting you to wish that the seed of my loins be fruitful in the belly of my woman (or similarl, you know what I mean) :)

― Markelby (Mark C), Thursday, 16 September 2004 12:02 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm not sure I do.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 16 September 2004 12:31 (twenty-one years ago)

What a great photo:

I don't get it about N. making a sound file.

I like Miller's posts, always.

I am looking forward to seeing N. - but I find that I am also looking forward to seeing Suzy!

I don't think I get why there is both bar + pub action in one night.

I have somewhat gone back on what I said about bars earlier. I find that the bar thing here appeals, now, for some reason.

Colette is right, the Princess Louise is fine, as many will agree.

RJG's post made me smile, as he does, always.

It's Fresher's Week? :'(

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Thursday, 16 September 2004 15:01 (twenty-one years ago)

yes that is a shame.

― the neurotic rassafrassa of harrumph (blueski), Thursday, 16 September 2004 15:02 (twenty-one years ago)

Fresher's Week was the only time period on earth I was capable of convincing myself I could get laid, seeing as the rest of the time, I'm a realist.

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Thursday, 16 September 2004 15:05 (twenty-one years ago)

Though, even if I was around for this, I'm pretty certain I'm out of N's league.

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Thursday, 16 September 2004 15:06 (twenty-one years ago)

But vomity freshers are nasty! I'm not saying I haven't done ~~them~~it myself, but you know...

― Liz :x (Liz :x), Thursday, 16 September 2004 15:06 (twenty-one years ago)

Will freshers have ventured beyond their union bars by this point, though?

Pinefox - a sound file is a computer file encoded with sound. If you click on the blue writing I provided, it will connect you to this. If your computer is suitably equipped, you will hear me 30 seconds of me talking about the arrangements for next Wednesday.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 16 September 2004 15:08 (twenty-one years ago)

What league are we talkng about? Is it about having sex with freshers? I have certainly never done that.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 16 September 2004 15:09 (twenty-one years ago)

Ew freshers. It is even more wrong and dirty to fancy them now I have to actually work with them, isn't it? Not that I do. Fancy them.

(Although I have a small crush on you Nick, after listening to the sound file :)

― Archel (Archel), Thursday, 16 September 2004 15:16 (twenty-one years ago)

What league are we talkng about? Is it about having sex with freshers? I have certainly never done that.

I guess we're both in the softballs league then.

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Thursday, 16 September 2004 15:17 (twenty-one years ago)

Barms, unless my memory's totally gone to buggery you're *extremely* good-looking. Why the modesty all the time?

― Markelby (Mark C), Thursday, 16 September 2004 15:49 (twenty-one years ago)

you never showed him enough attention!

― Ronan (Ronan), Thursday, 16 September 2004 15:52 (twenty-one years ago)

Ronan and Barima watch the girls go by

― the neurotic rassafrassa of harrumph (blueski), Thursday, 16 September 2004 15:55 (twenty-one years ago)

jesus christ

― Ronan (Ronan), Thursday, 16 September 2004 15:56 (twenty-one years ago)

That guy looks identical to Billy Bragg, but I assume it's not him.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 16 September 2004 15:57 (twenty-one years ago)

Billy Bragg doesn't wear glasses!

― the neurotic rassafrassa of harrumph (blueski), Thursday, 16 September 2004 15:57 (twenty-one years ago)

No, the white guy.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 16 September 2004 15:59 (twenty-one years ago)

nick, you are ridiculous sometimes.

― cºzen (Cozen), Thursday, 16 September 2004 16:10 (twenty-one years ago)

except when I like you.

― cºzen (Cozen), Thursday, 16 September 2004 16:12 (twenty-one years ago)

For a while there I thought they had the most awesome milkshakes in the world.

― Gravel Puzzleworth (Gregory Henry), Thursday, 16 September 2004 16:21 (twenty-one years ago)

That guy looks nothing like Billy Bragg. Stop saying everyone looks like Billy Bragg. I am still confused. The Princess Louise has the nicest toilets in the world. How, in the world, has Alba never been there?

I like the sound.

― Ally C (Ally C), Thursday, 16 September 2004 17:29 (twenty-one years ago)

Maybe I have been. I don't know. There have been so many.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 16 September 2004 17:31 (twenty-one years ago)

I think even I've been.

― cºzen (Cozen), Thursday, 16 September 2004 17:40 (twenty-one years ago)

A love story built on honest, clever, quiet jubilation--steering clear of mushiness and sentamentalism--JUMP TOMORROW interweaves the lives and dreams of three unique characters. George, aka Jorge (Tunde Adebimpe), is a sweet, shy man with deadpan facial expressions and a monotone voice. But underneath his stoic surface, Jorge is a true tiger with wild dreams and a passion for life. He takes a few days off work to travel to Niagara Falls where he is to meet his bride, Sophie, for a marriage arranged by his African relatives. On the way to Niagara, Jorge meets Gérard (Hippolyte Girardot), an outspoken French man with his heart on his sleeve whose would-be fiancée has just refused to marry him. The two forlorn men are invited to a party by a beautiful, exciting Spanish woman, Alicia (Natalia Verbeke), with whom Jorge falls instantly in love. The rest of the film is a game of leapfrog, with the unlikely--but perfectly compatible--pair of Jorge and Gérard piggybacking Alicia and her spaced out Canadian boyfriend, Nathan, along the highway to Niagara Falls...and beyond.

That lovely place what went to near Waterloo.

Was it the Kings Arms?

Will Mooro come?

He would like to, so he will try, but the work devils might be against him.

Why does Vanessa Felch on 'Cosmetic Surgery Live' remind me of Alba? I don't suspect him to have had Botox yet, but there is something going on there.

― Mooro (Mooro), Thursday, 16 September 2004 18:45 (twenty-one years ago)

N: I think I didn't get why you needed to make a sound file, and how you made it. Also, I have never had a computer that can play such things to me. So I have not heard it.

― the bellefox, Saturday, 18 September 2004 09:57 (twenty-one years ago)

I watched some Cosmetic Surgery Live. I think it was a man-woman who had had tits. They were saying wowo your tits look fantastic but they didn't, they looked like two lumps of fucking play-do.

Yes, that's the one, Mooro.

Can someone, preferably Carsmile, do the map thing for this Freud's Place. I hope it's not poncey.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Saturday, 18 September 2004 10:03 (twenty-one years ago)

That penultimate line was terrific.

― the bellefox, Saturday, 18 September 2004 10:09 (twenty-one years ago)

What, 'yes, that the one, Mooro'?

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Saturday, 18 September 2004 10:12 (twenty-one years ago)

I have typing problems today.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Saturday, 18 September 2004 10:12 (twenty-one years ago)

No: the one with the hidden sinister retro reference.

― Ed (dali), Saturday, 18 September 2004 11:48 (twenty-one years ago)

I didn't know there was a hidden sinister retro reference.

Thank you, Ed.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Sunday, 19 September 2004 10:40 (twenty-one years ago)

Cor, it looks like it's right in the middle of one of those nuclear bomb maps from the 80s.

Is Lincoln's Inn Fields good at all?

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Sunday, 19 September 2004 10:43 (twenty-one years ago)

Very. you can walk through the inns of court right down to the rivervhardly having to see a car.

― Ed (dali), Sunday, 19 September 2004 11:26 (twenty-one years ago)

I don't know if it still operates nowadays, but there used to be a nocturnal soup kitchen run in Lincoln's Inn Fields.

Probably no longer necessary though, seeing as London doesn't have a homeless problem any more.
