I saw Germaine Greer today in Leamington Spa! I don't miss Glasgow anymore.

― Cathy (Cathy), Wednesday, 7 September 2005 17:37 (twenty years ago)

aww but glasgow still misses you!
what is this new ailsa job???
as for tomorrow.. i might head there straight after work at 6pm too! then later i must pop out to retrieve an american girl from the train station. i may - or may not - return with her in tow. it depends how well behaved you all are.

― dahlin (dahlin), Wednesday, 7 September 2005 18:01 (twenty years ago)

I'll be there between 7-8pm. Should be able to muster some emergency funds before getting paid on Friday. Thought I was ok, but then the bloody phone bill came through. Grrr.

― Stew (stew s), Wednesday, 7 September 2005 20:32 (twenty years ago)

Yay new job!

I now have the same sort of job I had before, but with more money and less chance of getting made redundant (hopefully!). Start soon as I get out of my old job. I shall be in pub once I've come home, had my tea and recovered from teh hangover of death brought on by hearing about new job and toasting Kenny Miller.

top stuff, ailsa: hurrah!

irritatingly, there's now a 50% chance i won't be able to make it tonight (tedious, not worth explaining here). i should know for sure later today. assuming i don't, i would suggest the usual replacement of dragging some bearded, ranting tramp off the street and sticking him in my place.

like i say: i should know for sure later on.

I'm going home to ditch the car and have some healthy dinner first, so I should be there around eight.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 8 September 2005 08:28 (twenty years ago)

I might go to the movies first.

Jesus, I should check these things over sometimes.

― Ally C (Ally C), Thursday, 8 September 2005 11:44 (twenty years ago)

Is that your job, Ally? Or have you been random googling?

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller 68), Thursday, 8 September 2005 11:46 (twenty years ago)

The first one.

― Ally C (Ally C), Thursday, 8 September 2005 11:46 (twenty years ago)

That last one's brilliant, tripping over a hazard warning :-)

― Onimo (GerryNemo), Thursday, 8 September 2005 12:06 (twenty years ago)

Is number 2 a drunken duck-billed platypus?

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller 68), Thursday, 8 September 2005 12:17 (twenty years ago)

Perhaps just over-eager.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller 68), Thursday, 8 September 2005 12:18 (twenty years ago)

I'm at the daylight end of a 24-hour shift. Attendance tonight may be affected.

― scotstvo (scotstvo), Thursday, 8 September 2005 12:23 (twenty years ago)

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 8 September 2005 13:00 (twenty years ago)

Downstairs in King Tut's. Early arrivals at 6, stragglers to follow.

― Onimo (GerryNemo), Thursday, 8 September 2005 13:06 (twenty years ago)

I'd like one of these for glasgow

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 8 September 2005 14:13 (twenty years ago)

― scotstvo (scotstvo), Thursday, 8 September 2005 22:47 (twenty years ago)

christ, you made good time getting back! i'm just in the door. (mind, it would have been nice if the council had told me the bloody M8 on-ramp was shut.)

top night. exceptionally good to see everyone. al: the photos. you know what i mean :)

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Thursday, 8 September 2005 22:57 (twenty years ago)

Typing this, I've just realised my flies are down. I'm embarrassed, even though there's no one here. Cheers, Glasgow.

― Ally C (Ally C), Thursday, 8 September 2005 23:04 (twenty years ago)

Glasgow, I love you. Let's go curling!

― ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 8 September 2005 23:09 (twenty years ago)

Scotstvo was in the mr ailsa cab (via the Gardener Street hillstop horror!) hence home early.

Thanks for the rendition of "Where Do You Go To My Lovely", guys. That ended the night in top form.

You all owe me beer for the rest of all time due to ROUND OF HORROR!!! In case I never mentioned it at the time.

Hahahaha, scotstvo has a driving lesson tomorrow. hahahahhaa.

― ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 8 September 2005 23:13 (twenty years ago)

(also, we are posting to ILX as soon as we get home! mentalists.)

― ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 8 September 2005 23:15 (twenty years ago)

yes, but i'm sober. i have an excuse.

actually, no. that makes me worst of all. christ.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Thursday, 8 September 2005 23:34 (twenty years ago)

i want a tuts' pint!

hope spanish flat-hunting is going well for cathy.

dahlin, i need your address again - i have something to send you!

also, is ally wearing multiple trousers or does 'fly' get pluralised in scotland? i hope it's the former.

― Kate B (kate b), Friday, 9 September 2005 00:49 (twenty years ago)

I am wearing trousers made of a spider's web.

― Ally C (Ally C), Friday, 9 September 2005 07:05 (twenty years ago)

Woo! 2 hangovers in a row and now it's the weekend!

Nice to see you all again. Good night apart from from my (completely non alcohol related) attempts to crush dahlin.

Duds are classic! This candy is of no nutritional value whatsoever and has 3% less fat than an old chip pan.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Friday, 9 September 2005 08:16 (twenty years ago)

cool! it was almost worth being blinded several times for those.

why do i always have to flip the bird at cameras?

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Friday, 9 September 2005 08:19 (twenty years ago)

Jeez, we're a handsome bunch of internetty types, aren't we?

― scotstvo (scotstvo), Friday, 9 September 2005 08:23 (twenty years ago)

I am still freaked out by that last photo.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Friday, 9 September 2005 08:26 (twenty years ago)

And Grimly, you look like a tramp.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Friday, 9 September 2005 08:27 (twenty years ago)

In that first photo, I mean. You look dead hard in the other one.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Friday, 9 September 2005 08:37 (twenty years ago)

scotstvo's smoking a torch

― Onimo (GerryNemo), Friday, 9 September 2005 08:41 (twenty years ago)

weirdos

― RJG (RJG), Friday, 9 September 2005 08:42 (twenty years ago)

in the first photo, i am wondering what's happened to my retinas.

i can't believe none of us took a photo of you, mädchen. that was an oversight. quick: zoom back to tut's and take one of yourself, to complete the set.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Friday, 9 September 2005 08:43 (twenty years ago)

I will be in Tut's tonight so I will do that if I remember (which I won't).

― Mädchen (Madchen), Friday, 9 September 2005 14:51 (twenty years ago)

Comparing notes: Paranoia inducing new-found fun!

― Ally C (Ally C), Friday, 9 September 2005 16:08 (twenty years ago)

I am still freaked out by that last photo.

I did point out to Ally C and Stet that they were the poster boys for the "we're just out of work and going for a pint" brigade. That's maybe not what's freaking you out.

Can we all NOT give money to Grimly since he's totally cheating on the moustache front?

Also, you have a photo of teh mister. bwahahaahahah. I am disturbed by that photo of me and aldo where I look menaced and scared. I don't even REMEMBER that.

I liked the automatic sanny bin. Flashing blue lights!! (note to boys: YOU WOULDN'T UNDERSTAND, IT'S A GIRL THING)

― ailsa (ailsa), Friday, 9 September 2005 17:38 (twenty years ago)

Also, you never took a photo of the RAWK \m/ dude. He was great. Onimo, I've forgotten whatever joke it was that you told that made everyone pish themselves. The Nakamura song, the Du Wei shirts joke and the Linford Christie nonsense have been entertaining me all day.

For posterity:

"what do you call a calf wearing a No 7 football shirt and touting an AK-47?"

"A right-wing military coo".

*cue last orders cymbal thingie*
