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.

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/

You went out on a MONDAY?

And here I thought you were old.

Sorry.

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.

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)

― 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.

crosspost

yes, please!

― RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 3 August 2005 14:30 (twenty years ago)

I'm sorry I put you off going to the Konaki on Friday. Look what you're missing.

Has anyone booked the table yet?

― Alba (Alba), Wednesday, 3 August 2005 21:01 (twenty years ago)

I am glad we are not going for Greek Party Night, it would only distract from Cathy Party Night. I rang up to ask if I could book a table for up to fifteen people and Mr. Konaki said "Fifteen, wow! Fantastic!" in an amazed voice like they'd never had that many people even in the restaurant before. I really love the Konaki. I have to ring tomorrow afternoon to say how many will actually be coming...it looks like 12 or possibly 13 at the moment.

When I got home just now, there was an exciting package waiting for me. And sure enough, it was my birthday present to myself, via Amazon. It is the first volume of Alan Clark's diaries. I got it for 1p! (+P&P). What a great week.

― Cathy (Cathy), Wednesday, 3 August 2005 21:23 (twenty years ago)

I wish I was coming. Have a lovely night Cathy.

― ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 3 August 2005 21:26 (twenty years ago)

mr konaki and i once had a conversation - in greek! wahay!
pressies! wahay!

― dahlin (dahlin), Wednesday, 3 August 2005 21:31 (twenty years ago)

(x-post ... how did i know it'd be dahlin? :)

indeed. have a top time, cathy ... if there are any advance pub plans for later, post 'em here, although i'm 99% sure i won't be able to make it. i shall buy you a birthday drink at the next FAP, tho'. yay for leos :)

and ailsa: you two have a top holiday! bring us back a stuffed donkey and a sombrero.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Wednesday, 3 August 2005 21:34 (twenty years ago)

(because i RAWK? and live to make your life difficult?)

― dahlin (dahlin), Wednesday, 3 August 2005 21:40 (twenty years ago)

I am sorry that you can't come, ailsa, and dahlin, and grimly. See you at my 21st!
I will think about where would be good to go to afterwards...not stereo! Maybe the goat. Maybe one of those weird celticky pubs around there. I can say for sure that we will not be going to Ashton Lane. Perhaps we will walk up Sauchiehall St and go to Stavka. I think I might really want to go to Stavka, actually. I like the little cocktail bar at the top. And it is big enough for lots of people. But every time I suggest going there people laugh at me...

― Cathy (Cathy), Wednesday, 3 August 2005 22:16 (twenty years ago)

Are you out of your tiny mind?

― Alba (Alba), Wednesday, 3 August 2005 22:18 (twenty years ago)

N., are you Alvin Stardust in disguise?

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Thursday, 4 August 2005 08:03 (twenty years ago)

There is no disguise involved.

― Ally C (Ally C), Thursday, 4 August 2005 11:24 (twenty years ago)

disguise crazy

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 4 August 2005 11:40 (twenty years ago)

Do you have a cigar?

― Ally C (Ally C), Thursday, 4 August 2005 11:48 (twenty years ago)

What time is the Konaki booked?

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 4 August 2005 16:34 (twenty years ago)

8pm. There won't be any Nal or Isabelle or Patrick or Matt. I hope everyone else is still coming!

― Cathy (Cathy), Thursday, 4 August 2005 16:48 (twenty years ago)

ronan can't but says "hello, everyone" and "happy birthday, cathy"

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 4 August 2005 17:13 (twenty years ago)

We are dropping like flies. I hope some people turn up.

― Cathy (Cathy), Thursday, 4 August 2005 17:15 (twenty years ago)

I am really hungry.

― Cathy (Cathy), Thursday, 4 August 2005 17:21 (twenty years ago)

hell's bells

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 4 August 2005 22:48 (twenty years ago)

― dahlin (dahlin), Thursday, 4 August 2005 23:36 (twenty years ago)

Cook vs Cozen, 2005.

6-3 6-7 (4-7).

I Picked up an injury midway and let him off the hook.
He turned it on when he needed to and I faded, from 5-4 matchpoint.

― Ally C (Ally C), Saturday, 6 August 2005 13:08 (twenty years ago)

Can't wait till next year!

― Ally C (Ally C), Saturday, 6 August 2005 13:09 (twenty years ago)

Thanks for the fluff, dahlin. I never did work out whether you meant to give it to me or I just stole it. Too late now, anyway!

― Cathy (Cathy), Saturday, 6 August 2005 13:24 (twenty years ago)
