― CarsmileSteve (CarsmileSteve), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 15:03 (twenty-one years ago)

It is LOVE that is like a butterfly, Stevem. Leave poor Wendy alone.

― Jerry the Nipper (Jerrynipper), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 15:03 (twenty-one years ago)

(sorry butterflies set in cheltenham, for those of you who didn't know)

― CarsmileSteve (CarsmileSteve), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 15:04 (twenty-one years ago)

it was a typo Jerry, honest! and NO, NEVER...

― teh pow! (blueski), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 15:05 (twenty-one years ago)

yeh, hope you all have(having) a good time. wish i could be there to be honest, if i didnt live miles away.

― Ste (Fuzzy), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 15:11 (twenty-one years ago)

If I could gatecrash any occasion, I think it would be this one.

Over Britney's tracksuit wedding??

― Lara (Lara), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 16:44 (twenty-one years ago)

We could combine the two.

― Ally C (Ally C), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 16:52 (twenty-one years ago)

You silver tongued minx!

― Lara (Lara), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 16:53 (twenty-one years ago)

Dance with me, in shellsuits.

― Ally C (Ally C), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 17:01 (twenty-one years ago)

no heavy petting and no flammable clothes, on the dancefloor.

― RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 17:15 (twenty-one years ago)

It's a cotton-lamb's wool mix. (I would bloody love a night on Renfrew Street eating those indian chicken things out of a paper bag. I'll have to try Glasgow more. Again)

― Lara (Lara), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 19:26 (twenty-one years ago)

I have a funny feeling that Christina Slater may have turned up for Alba's drinks...

― Lara (Lara), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 19:40 (twenty-one years ago)

No, it was actually funnier than that, who turned up.

― suzy (suzy), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 19:48 (twenty-one years ago)

you can't say that and not tell us

― Ronan (Ronan), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 19:49 (twenty-one years ago)

I think she might just have :-(

― Lara (Lara), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 19:50 (twenty-one years ago)

To confirm - Christian Slater was in A pub in London but alas perhaps not THE pub. I was hoping against hope that he might have been posting under 'The Pinefox' all the while...

― Lara (Lara), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 19:52 (twenty-one years ago)

No, let someone else much more drunk than me come back and tell tales! Also someone else gets a turn to drop names this time, and I am knackered.

― suzy (suzy), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 19:58 (twenty-one years ago)

Ok, but this had better be good after you whetting our appetities for intrigue!!

― Lara (Lara), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 20:00 (twenty-one years ago)

Also it happened at Freuds and not that office-bod pub.

― suzy (suzy), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 20:02 (twenty-one years ago)

It wasn't me.

― Ally C (Ally C), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 20:03 (twenty-one years ago)

You're feeding us crumbs, lady!!

― Lara (Lara), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 20:03 (twenty-one years ago)

Was it you in disguise?

― Lara (Lara), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 20:04 (twenty-one years ago)

Why would Suzy disguise herself?

― Ally C (Ally C), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 20:06 (twenty-one years ago)

The four individuals concerned haven't been seen 'as four' in quite some time. I think they were trying to have a discreet drink with their manager in tow (which I hope they didn't think I would write about, that's how they know me). That's the exciting newsworthy bit - and it was good to see them out. One of them bought me a Japanese Slipper drink and we caught up on married friends, friends with kids, all that.

― suzy (suzy), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 20:17 (twenty-one years ago)

BOYZONE. I fucking knew it!

― Penelope_111 (Penelope_111), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 20:26 (twenty-one years ago)

If it's not them, it's definitely Showaddywaddy.

― Penelope_111 (Penelope_111), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 20:32 (twenty-one years ago)

i missed all the famous people.

but i was asked to be in a film, by a man that designs hats. weird night. but fun! within moments of meeting, i'd managed to make the guest of honor's hair look like something i think kate would have really really liked...

― colette (a2lette), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 22:03 (twenty-one years ago)

That was a good night! Apologies for being such a blushingly dull FAP virgin - y'all were exactly as I'd hoped, except most of you, who were much better.

― Gravel Puzzleworth (Gregory Henry), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 22:37 (twenty-one years ago)

sorry i couldn't make it. my wasp stung toe would have made me cry if i didn't come home straight after work and abstain from any walking

― ken c (ken c), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 22:41 (twenty-one years ago)

No, let someone else much more drunk than me come back and tell tales! Also someone else gets a turn to drop names this time, and I am knackered.

Suzy's memory maybe in a Blur.

― Mooro (Mooro), Wednesday, 22 September 2004 22:48 (twenty-one years ago)

PH1ll1p TR44cy?

― Ed (dali), Thursday, 23 September 2004 06:59 (twenty-one years ago)

I knew that 'Jarvis and Alex Built A Fort (And Get It On)' would come back to haunt me. Curse you StClaire.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Thursday, 23 September 2004 07:24 (twenty-one years ago)

did the Nipper ever show? i had stuff for him. i didn't make it to Frauds (well, i did but only after everyone had left) so maybe he left after that. or maybe arranging to meet somewhere as terrible as Frauds and then not turning up himself is his idea of Teh Funny.

― koogs (koogs), Thursday, 23 September 2004 07:26 (twenty-one years ago)

I think the Nipper sat at home, reading this thread and rubbing his hands together in evil glee at the fuss he had caused.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Thursday, 23 September 2004 07:34 (twenty-one years ago)

Freud's wasn't my idea! I'm sorry I didn't make this - I have a Life Full O'Work at the moment.

― Jerry the Nipper (Jerrynipper), Thursday, 23 September 2004 07:42 (twenty-one years ago)

> Can't we go to a... bar?

this looks like the germ of the idea right there. 8)

― koogs (koogs), Thursday, 23 September 2004 07:55 (twenty-one years ago)

On my computer that was set in the typeface Ironic Bold.

― Jerry the Nipper (Jerrynipper), Thursday, 23 September 2004 07:59 (twenty-one years ago)

i'm gutted i missed Dave, would've been good to chat.

― teh pow! (blueski), Thursday, 23 September 2004 08:31 (twenty-one years ago)

I am sorry I did not chat more; was feeling a bit rub after my bout of bad chips the night before.

― Dave B (daveb), Thursday, 23 September 2004 08:34 (twenty-one years ago)

i meant the other Dave, the famous one

― teh pow! (blueski), Thursday, 23 September 2004 08:36 (twenty-one years ago)

even though he wasn't feeling well, dave b still managed to make water come out my nose (in collaboration with carsmile). well done!

― colette (a2lette), Thursday, 23 September 2004 08:38 (twenty-one years ago)

Beautiful!!

― PinXorchiXoR (Pinkpanther), Thursday, 23 September 2004 08:41 (twenty-one years ago)

Did he screw a hose into the base of your skull? He's done that to me before. I mean, it's sweet an' all, but...

― Michael Jones (MichaelJ), Thursday, 23 September 2004 08:41 (twenty-one years ago)

Shouldn't that be on the Carry on ILX thread?!!

― PinXorchiXoR (Pinkpanther), Thursday, 23 September 2004 08:43 (twenty-one years ago)

What is in a Long Island Tea again? I'm sure mine had some enriched uranium in it. I only had four drinks, but it felt like ten. Why didn't we go to McDonald's at half time?

It took me almost two hours to get home.

There is something called a Hellboy Gauntlet in that Forbidden Planet window. Ideal for devotees of Fantasy Fisting.

The people we saw in the BAR were the guys from Britpop sensations BLUR, including the speccy one. It was very very exciting.

And then they were gone.

I said 'Paper Chase' by Richard Harris was a cracker, but I was thinking of a different song.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Thursday, 23 September 2004 09:04 (twenty-one years ago)

It was really good to see everyone, except Blur. I could teach them a thing or two about having a discreet drink if that's their idea of going dark.

There's a piece of paper in front of me that says:

COLETTE: JULIO, JOL, JULIO, JE

Which is a bit fucking weird. I didn't write it.

It's a shame about the ducks.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 23 September 2004 09:20 (twenty-one years ago)

Didn't anyone physically assault Blur? I should've thought it would have been compulsory.

― Dr. C (Dr. C), Thursday, 23 September 2004 09:23 (twenty-one years ago)

damn! did someone expose that julio and i are actually the same person?

― colette (a2lette), Thursday, 23 September 2004 09:23 (twenty-one years ago)

This mysterious document also says:

FRANZ: TOM, SARAH, MATT, J
