Neil is at the pictures all night and I am bored. I phoned Cook earlier and he was supposed to be packing when I requested him for a diversion from watching shit telly. I am up for a pint if this is happening (I don't even know what is happening, does it involve Camera Obscura?).

I think it's a BYOCO party.

I'll pop over to the old 148 ranch and see if I can rouse the troops.

stirmonster, you practically made my year with the perfect twenty minute section starting w/the mingling bells of mayer's maps and brutalga square and the 5, 10, 15 minute wait for the main line of dexter to come in.

Should I move from my house Glasgow-wards and wait for a phone call (I think only Ally has my number?)? Or should I continue watching Coronation Street and being bored? Will someone tell me if something is going on that will relieve my boredom?

― ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 6 July 2005 17:57 (twenty-one years ago)

I think "one" may only mean "two", in this instance, so I don't know how worthwhile an excursion it'd be if it isn't on your way home from work or down the hill from your flat

I am going to their decaying house and they are going to eat their tea and then I will try to persuade them that boxes are for squares and they need to have a drink at the Brunswick Cellars, where CL may be barmaiding and shooting us 'ha ha' looks every now then. If this sounds interesting then do join us.

Fucking hell these chocolates are good.

― Alba (Alba), Wednesday, 6 July 2005 18:00 (twenty-one years ago)

oh and big brother is on at ten, so

― RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 6 July 2005 18:00 (twenty-one years ago)

I have no better options, so I may jump up by teh BC. Please come out as it will be a wasted trip otherwise (I am eating my tea so you have about fifteen minutes to post back if this is the case)

I didn't know CL had a real job. I should get out more.

― ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 6 July 2005 18:03 (twenty-one years ago)

I will come out.

― Alba (Alba), Wednesday, 6 July 2005 18:05 (twenty-one years ago)

I am just miffed because there are three pub quizzes on in Paisley tonight but the mister has gone to the pictures, leaving me with a free evening, and has kidnapped all of my local mates to go with him thereby robbing me of my pub quiz team. bah. I might come out, if I do I will be in the Cellars within the hour.

what a world

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 11 July 2005 10:45 (twenty years ago)

It sure is a sunny one.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Monday, 11 July 2005 11:11 (twenty years ago)

I haven't looked at this thread, for quite a while.

It no longer makes any kind of sense.

Ally C, you should ask Steady Mike to play you his 'wonky' version of 'Sailing' by Christopher Cross, one day.

― Peter Stringbender (PJ Miller), Monday, 11 July 2005 11:20 (twenty years ago)

― dahlin (dahlin), Friday, 15 July 2005 15:44 (twenty years ago)

i'll be trying to get out of bed at 5am to go to arran for the weekend.

buggery bollocks.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Friday, 15 July 2005 16:38 (twenty years ago)

I have a carefully planned menu of utterly bog all.

― scotstvo (scotstvo), Friday, 15 July 2005 16:41 (twenty years ago)

OK here is the skinny

I am moving back to glasgow, provisional upon:

M&S announce 6 new jobs at sauchiehall store on weds

I will transfer there if I can get a job, with adequate hours &c.

so:

I am looking for a) a flat & b) a flatmate:

a) ally c said there was a 'nice' flat available above you, lucy, what can you tell me about it? e-mail? the one here is good

b) RJG said he knew someone who was looking for a flatmate.

so.

I won't know for sure if I can move back in 'till wednesday

and then I can start catering to my two part flat conundrum

hi glasgow

― cozen (Cozen), Friday, 15 July 2005 17:15 (twenty years ago)

Terrific. Can't help.

― Alba (Alba), Friday, 15 July 2005 17:17 (twenty years ago)

What good news! I do hope you come back, cozen. Can't help either, though.

― Cathy (Cathy), Friday, 15 July 2005 17:19 (twenty years ago)

my friend is nice and irish and an architecture student but lives almost next door to us.

why do you keep saying funny things, cozen?

― RJG (RJG), Friday, 15 July 2005 17:35 (twenty years ago)

peculiar or haha?

― cozen (Cozen), Friday, 15 July 2005 17:45 (twenty years ago)

don't make me choose

― RJG (RJG), Friday, 15 July 2005 17:47 (twenty years ago)

With the kind of timing only Telewest can manage, my email account has been suspended, whatever that means. I am quietly confident that anyone who needs to know will eventually click on this thread, except my cousin in Australia, who is the only person liable to get the hump about me not answering anything.

― Peter Stringbender (PJ Miller), Monday, 18 July 2005 09:01 (twenty years ago)

Looks like we won't be able to try Glasgow this weekend now :(

― Sociah T Azzahole (blueski), Monday, 18 July 2005 09:16 (twenty years ago)

How come?

― Alba (Alba), Monday, 18 July 2005 09:19 (twenty years ago)

But :) for Cozen moving.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Monday, 18 July 2005 10:05 (twenty years ago)

()-- for Cozen's tennis.

― Alba (Alba), Monday, 18 July 2005 10:09 (twenty years ago)

Peter,

Andy's asking for your new home address on robots...

― KeefW (kmw), Monday, 18 July 2005 10:24 (twenty years ago)

oh yeah, how was tennis?
and madchen.. what happened to your media lockdown? tsk tsk

― dahlin (dahlin), Monday, 18 July 2005 10:47 (twenty years ago)

that's good cozen, that was funny RJG, that's a shame stevem. Ally C i am a dick! i will try you soon i hope.

isolee roll call?

― jed_ (jed), Monday, 18 July 2005 11:04 (twenty years ago)

I think I'll be too knackered. Media black-out starts again... NOW.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Monday, 18 July 2005 11:18 (twenty years ago)

Keith, tell him I'll get back to him on that one when we're up and running. I can't remember the postcode, although I did have a clever way of remembering it. Also, please tell him I am doing quality control for the Mighty Boosh, so he'll soon be bale to watch it without a logo.

Did you got to that Harry Potter thing at Edinburgh Castle?

I bet you did, you puff.

― Peter Stringbender (PJ Miller), Monday, 18 July 2005 11:27 (twenty years ago)

No problem.

I didn't go to Harry Potter no. I don't know anything about Harry Potter, though I did enjoy Paul Daniels' Magic show.

― KeefW (kmw), Monday, 18 July 2005 11:29 (twenty years ago)

I'm afraid I won't be trying Edinburgh or Glasgow this weekend, for sadly obvious reasons. Sorry to mess you about, Keith.

― Tim (Tim), Monday, 18 July 2005 11:39 (twenty years ago)

oh god, i just made a comment, upthread, about it being a shame stevem wasn't coming that might have seemed a bit glib, sorry. i am sad that neither Tim nor Stevem are coming to glasgow :(

― jed_ (jed), Monday, 18 July 2005 11:46 (twenty years ago)

I guess we'll all be happy to see people if they can make it up later in the summer / year tho'.

I queued for an hour with C to get a HP book on Friday. We arrived at c. 11.45 and the queue went from Waterstones round the Burger King to the Guildform Arms. This may only make sense to other Edinburgers hiding out on this thread.

― alext (alext), Monday, 18 July 2005 11:51 (twenty years ago)

Tim, it's no problem.

Any other time is fine, just let me know, though I'll be in Dublin the week beginning the 8th.

― KeefW (kmw), Monday, 18 July 2005 11:52 (twenty years ago)

Alex, yes, Matthew Atk1nson was saying there were loads of people dressed up as wizards and gnomes and stuff on the street.

― KeefW (kmw), Monday, 18 July 2005 11:53 (twenty years ago)

madchen, I might have to phone you, to enquire

RJG, you too, or I could e-mail

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 18 July 2005 12:34 (twenty years ago)

I'd like to go see isolée

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 18 July 2005 13:25 (twenty years ago)

feel free!

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 18 July 2005 16:38 (twenty years ago)

Would that be a Wednesday in 2001?? Has this thread gone into a timewarp?

― alext (alext), Monday, 18 July 2005 21:17 (twenty years ago)

No, the whole of ILX has gone into a timewarp.

That would be Wednesday as in not tomorrow but the day after.

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 18 July 2005 21:23 (twenty years ago)
