I have a carefully planned menu of utterly bog all.

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)

cozen (Cozen), Monday, 18 July 2005 10:02 (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)

try new lanark more

dahlin (dahlin), Monday, 18 July 2005 21:28 (twenty years ago)

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT, for ALLY C:
tennis was fully booked up, through tuesday

czn (johnson), Monday, 18 July 2005 21:39 (twenty years ago)

I wish I had tried New Lanark more. It looks very nice (I was at a wedding there once, but it was dark and I was drunk so I don't remember it looking that pretty).

You should try hills up the back of Greenock more. That's what I did on Sunday. I got sunburnt.

ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 18 July 2005 21:42 (twenty years ago)

(that isn't my photo, and that's not my dog)

ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 18 July 2005 21:44 (twenty years ago)

johnson?

jed_ (jed), Monday, 18 July 2005 21:45 (twenty years ago)

I think this may be a good thread to introduce myself to some of you(If anyone cares...).
Longtime lurker of about 3-4 years. (I think i posted on a pfunk thread some years back actually). I know quite a few ilxors from outside of ilx but none in Scotland.

My name is Kerr and i'm 32.
I'm not from Glasgow but i'm not far away. I've been in Hamilton for 14 years now. Before that I lived in various places including East Kilbride, Blackwood and before I moved to Hamilton I lived in Prestwick for 8 years, where i attended secondary school in Ayr.

Main interests are music and football(im an Accies fan for my sins, as well as Liverpool).

Ned insists you're a friendly lot.

So hello everybody!

Last Of The Famous International Pfunkboys (Kerr), Monday, 18 July 2005 22:08 (twenty years ago)

hello pfunk. post more. it could create a new pfunk era.

jed_ (jed), Monday, 18 July 2005 22:11 (twenty years ago)

Ned's a liar. We're all horrible.

ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 18 July 2005 22:12 (twenty years ago)

Ned's a liar. We're all horrible.

Well thanks for the warning!

Last Of The Famous International Pfunkboys (Kerr), Monday, 18 July 2005 22:15 (twenty years ago)

jedpost - czn stole my pc

jeffrey (johnson), Monday, 18 July 2005 22:45 (twenty years ago)

Hi pfunk! I work with an Accies fan, from Hamilton.

Ailsa's lying. Only some of us are horrible.

It's gone 2am - get to bed Gerry!

Onimo (GerryNemo), Tuesday, 19 July 2005 00:06 (twenty years ago)

yes, get to bed gerry!
hi kerr.. i think i have your number. ooo-er!

dahlin (dahlin), Tuesday, 19 July 2005 08:18 (twenty years ago)

greetings, kerr. hamilton, eh? i've been to the bus station there. and i've met some of mogwai.

when i met the glasgow ILX chapter in the flesh, they gave me chinese burns and swirlies. especially that dahlin: you want to be watching her.

sorry. er ... not sure i can do a wednesday pint, but post any details here anyway and i shall try.

grimly fiendish (grimlord), Tuesday, 19 July 2005 08:43 (twenty years ago)

Wednesday is .2. night, innit. Buff Club.

Mädchen (Madchen), Tuesday, 19 July 2005 08:50 (twenty years ago)

I'm not leaving Edin. until we have moved flat on Friday. (Others have much worse things to do that day I know.) I am now wondering where on earth I can get legal advice about how not to be stitched up by dearly beloved partner in the process ;-)

alext (alext), Tuesday, 19 July 2005 09:20 (twenty years ago)

i bite. CHOMP
no, madchen darling, today is TUESDAY. TOMORROW is wednesday. i know you've been working hard and all, but REALLY...
yes, buff club it is
BUFF
CLUB!
woo hoo!

dahlin (dahlin), Tuesday, 19 July 2005 09:23 (twenty years ago)

i think she meant "dot to dot" night? or dot-to-dot night, if you're going to be really pedantic about the punctuation.

grimly fiendish (grimlord), Tuesday, 19 July 2005 09:42 (twenty years ago)

grimly understands

Mädchen (Madchen), Tuesday, 19 July 2005 10:14 (twenty years ago)

oh yes, i like that.

grimly understands (grimlord), Tuesday, 19 July 2005 10:15 (twenty years ago)
