hello folks

i am going to be trying glasgow hopefully for just the one night on the 13th august (that is the saturday). Hope to see some of yous there... driving up in the morning or maybe PLANE (i haven't checked the practicality of this).. i think i'm going to be socialising at the woodside in the evening. perhaps sneak to that pub across the road for a quick karaoke (if that still happenes), i don't know if i still remember any words for any songs though.

(happy birthday cathy!)

I will definitely be Trying Glasgow More at some point in September.

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 09:56 (twenty years ago)

That pub is shut, Ken, you won't be trying that.

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 09:59 (twenty years ago)

― ken c (ken c), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 10:01 (twenty years ago)

The landsdowne! As featured in the Herald!

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 10:08 (twenty years ago)

― ken c (ken c), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 10:16 (twenty years ago)

It's not that posh. They let me in. And Shearer.

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 10:21 (twenty years ago)

shearer! in that case definitely not posh.

― ken c (ken c), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 10:22 (twenty years ago)

I don't think I can come out for dinner, cathy

: /

I am working on thursday & friday, too

: /

I may get to be a lawyer soon, though

: )

― cozen (Cozen), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 10:40 (twenty years ago)

You could be the ILX lawyer as we engage in corporate takeovers.

Ken should go to the Landsdowne to follow in my holy footsteps.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 10:45 (twenty years ago)

having long hair does not make you jesus ned.

― ken c (ken c), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 11:31 (twenty years ago)

You need a beard too!

― Onimo (GerryNemo), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 11:33 (twenty years ago)

Jesus, Ned.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 11:36 (twenty years ago)

my lawyer advises me not to make a joke about all the beer in the lansdowne mysteriously turning into water.

not because it would be libellous; just unfunny.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 11:39 (twenty years ago)

Visions all, if somehow inappropriate.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 11:40 (twenty years ago)

oh no beer turning into water doesn't sound good :(

i hope they serve big portions of bread and fish anyway

― ken c (ken c), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 11:41 (twenty years ago)

Couldn't someone have arranged for a miracle last Wednesday when I was in there watching the Artmedia Bratislava debacle? Like turning Mo Camara into a footballer or something?

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 11:46 (twenty years ago)

mo camera mo' problem

― ken c (ken c), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 11:47 (twenty years ago)

I am around Thursday night, though I am still fucking sick and pretty miserable just in time for my holiday : ( Nonetheless I'd love to see people Thursday night, providing I'm not feeling extremely bad, I'm around in the day too pretty much and will probably go record shopping.

― Ronan (Ronan), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 11:53 (twenty years ago)

Tonight's prediction: Celtic 14 Artmedia 10.

― Ally C (Ally C), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 11:56 (twenty years ago)

Where were you when the puns were flying on this thread - UEFA Champions League 05/06, this is the thread for ?

(xpost to Ken)

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 11:58 (twenty years ago)

Ronan, unless you are at Glasgow Airport at six in the morning on Thursday, it is unlikely that I will see you :(

Ally, I hate you. (though that is the most likely prediction I have heard so far)

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 12:12 (twenty years ago)

rats' cocks, this thursday-night thing sounds fun but now i don't think i'm going to be able to make it either. jism. what exactly is the plan: food and then beer later?

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 12:32 (twenty years ago)

By Thursday I will be ready to go out on the razz. Oh yeah.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 14:04 (twenty years ago)

Just as I leave the country. I will miss Cathy's birthday, and Ronan. I will be back in time for Ken though, oh yes.

I like how Glasgow has got a whole lot more social though, recently.

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 14:06 (twenty years ago)

lucy you'll save some razzage for a week on saturday i hope

― ken c (ken c), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 14:11 (twenty years ago)

Last night we tried to try the Garage. The bouncers took one look at us and said "you don't look like regulars, sorry". Then proceeded to ID a bunch of large-breasted 15 year olds and let them all in. bastards.

Instead we went to Blanket and danced to Huey Lewis and the News, Phil Oakey & Giorgio Moroder, and 5ive. It was much fun.

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 14:33 (twenty years ago)

aw no my breasts aren't very big :(

― ken c (ken c), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 14:34 (twenty years ago)

The Garage is rubbish anyway. But it was Monday, it was someone's birthday, we were drunk. Blanket on the other hand was excellent. Chesney Hawkes! Whitney Houston! The Killers! Franz Ferdinand! Salt'n'Pepa! Technotronic! Kaiser Chiefs! MC Hammer!

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 14:37 (twenty years ago)

hehe. well i like MC hammer! \o/ |o_ |p/

― ken c (ken c), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 14:39 (twenty years ago)

You went out on a MONDAY?

And here I thought you were old.

Sorry.

― Ally C (Ally C), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 15:24 (twenty years ago)

stet wore a suit
Yes, because I heartily support the royals. Without them I don't get to be Lord Stet of McSub and bank at Coutts.

Working on thursday, more's the plums, but should be out after.

― stet (stet), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 16:04 (twenty years ago)

who was talking about butteries? i just had my first ever buttery (from Tesco). it was rank!

― jed_ (jed), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 19:56 (twenty years ago)

― Cathy (Cathy), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 20:00 (twenty years ago)

whoops

4009

― RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 20:02 (twenty years ago)

I was talking about butteries, elsewhere. They are great, but not the ones from Tesco. Go to Aberdeen and get a real one.

I feel old today, Ally. I only went out on a Monday because I don't have to go to work for a fortnight.

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 21:05 (twenty years ago)

i hate butteries
i didn't think anytone got rejected by the garage bouncers!
is friday happening or non?

― dahlin (dahlin), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 22:12 (twenty years ago)

I think three blokes the wrong side of thirty (the mister, his mate Ryan who was out with us on Saturday, one of Ryan's mates) in denim jackets, rubbish clothes and brandishing fearsome beerguts, together with the least glamorous female club-goer in the world (me) are not the desired clientele for a "young" and "happening" place like the Garage.

I don't care as the Garage is rubbish anyway. Grumble. And I bet I couldn't have danced to "Together in Electric Dreams" in there.

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 22:16 (twenty years ago)

or electric youth. ah, sweet debbie gibson

― dahlin (dahlin), Wednesday, 3 August 2005 12:49 (twenty years ago)

Is there a plan for post-Konaki yet?

― Mädchen (Madchen), Wednesday, 3 August 2005 13:14 (twenty years ago)

It is a pity I cannot attend this goodness.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 3 August 2005 13:24 (twenty years ago)

― RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 3 August 2005 14:21 (twenty years ago)
