erm, you're posh = lamest insult ever

― ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 21 September 2005 21:58 (twenty years ago)

I wasn't having a go! My Aunt May lived in Paisley. So did Gerry Rafferty. I've often wondered what it is makes Edinburgh posh. It might just come down to there being (perhaps) less outdoor toilets twenty five years ago, I think.

― KeefW (kmw), Wednesday, 21 September 2005 22:00 (twenty years ago)

I just misread that as "it might just come down to me being there". Which would have been my explanation.

― ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 21 September 2005 22:03 (twenty years ago)

I read this shit, and may not be considered one of you lot in Glasgow.

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Thursday, 22 September 2005 08:30 (twenty years ago)

I read this also, and I would not like to be considered one of you lot in Glasgow because I'm not. One of you lot, in Glasgow, that I'd be pleased about.

― Tim (Tim), Thursday, 22 September 2005 08:38 (twenty years ago)

i read this shit. i'm not sure if i count as 'one of us lot' or not. especially seeing as i only started reading after i'd left glasgow.

― michael grant (michael digby grant), Thursday, 22 September 2005 09:14 (twenty years ago)

I read this, and from next week I'll be back to commuting to Glasgow four days a week, but I still don't think I count as 'one of us lot'! PS get some decent weather, coming out of the tube was like walking into a cold sauna this morning.

The trick is to be naked and whipped with twigs.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 22 September 2005 09:37 (twenty years ago)

he does that every morning anyway.

Cozen, should I encourage D Betts onto ILX?

D Betts fanclub FAP!

I'd forgotten about him. Yes please.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 22 September 2005 12:07 (twenty years ago)

who?
hello

― dahlin (dahlin), Thursday, 22 September 2005 17:50 (twenty years ago)

Remember we were talking about all going out for a meal together, Glasgow people? We should do this. I propose next Saturday, since it's just after payday. And not a school night. And I'm not doing anything except celebrating the day after my last day at work. So, let's eat, Glasgow.

Someone suggest a restaurant because I never go out in Glasgow anymore.

― ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 22 September 2005 18:11 (twenty years ago)

There's alext! I was talking about him today.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 22 September 2005 18:16 (twenty years ago)

RJG, sorry about that, my computer just blew up. It's a bit flaky at the moment. On the laptop now, but need to sort out instant messaging!

― KeefW (kmw), Thursday, 22 September 2005 18:25 (twenty years ago)

I may be able to make next Saturday, but it seems a little doubtful. Still, it is a good idea whether I can or not.

― Ally C (Ally C), Thursday, 22 September 2005 18:28 (twenty years ago)

: )

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 22 September 2005 18:29 (twenty years ago)

Next week I am going to a wedding on Monday, we are chucking a party at work on Thursday before me and the boss leave, then going out for a meal with my immediate colleagues, and on Friday we have a proper leaving do with all my other colleagues. So more booze and food will be just what I need by Saturday.

Doesn't have to be next Saturday, but people say if you want to go and recommend restaurants and we'll take it from there.

― ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 22 September 2005 18:34 (twenty years ago)

Dunkin' Donuts

― KeefW (kmw), Thursday, 22 September 2005 18:37 (twenty years ago)

Next Friday, I am going to Dublin!

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 22 September 2005 18:43 (twenty years ago)

night-time Madchen on ILE, hura hura.

― stet (stet), Thursday, 22 September 2005 18:45 (twenty years ago)

It would be totally awesome to get Dicky Betts on ilx. He could show Keef how to like play all his guitars & stuff.

― Mooro (Mooro), Thursday, 22 September 2005 18:47 (twenty years ago)

Who's Dicky Betts?

― KeefW (kmw), Thursday, 22 September 2005 19:00 (twenty years ago)

Plays the guitar on the Top Gear theme tune (or at least their theme when they still used the original Allman Brothers version of the tune 'Jessica')

― Mooro (Mooro), Thursday, 22 September 2005 19:06 (twenty years ago)

Oh right, yeah. I know it. I've got it actually. I like the photo on the sleeve of that record. Looks like me when I was a kid. Because it looks like a small kid.

― KeefW (kmw), Thursday, 22 September 2005 19:07 (twenty years ago)

I have heard the latest work by Betts is quite something. If somebody wanted to email it to me, I would be a happy bunny.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 22 September 2005 19:41 (twenty years ago)

Now I am in gainful employment I'd be up for a meal. How about the Cossachok for goulash and vodka? And it's very near Mono for further boozy fun...

― Stew (stew s), Thursday, 22 September 2005 21:33 (twenty years ago)

Hey, that sounds good!

― ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 22 September 2005 21:39 (twenty years ago)

Despite knowing where both venues are, I can do neither. (Although I am not 'of Glasgow' anyway)

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Thursday, 22 September 2005 22:11 (twenty years ago)

Goulash is hardly good Russian fayre. However, the borshch and khachapuri are very good, as is the range of vodkas on sale. I'll check my shifts.

― scotstvo (scotstvo), Thursday, 22 September 2005 22:28 (twenty years ago)

Mmmm, borschch. What's khachapuri?

― Stew (stew s), Thursday, 22 September 2005 22:31 (twenty years ago)

Ah, now I know. Georgian cheese bread...

― Stew (stew s), Thursday, 22 September 2005 22:33 (twenty years ago)

And well worth it too. It seems I'm supposed to be working on Saturday, but I'm about due a weekend off, so I may try and wangle that.

― scotstvo (scotstvo), Thursday, 22 September 2005 22:49 (twenty years ago)

I have £70 to last me until next Thursday and that must include some food shopping and some petrol! Don't go eating Russian this weekend, pleeeeease!

i read this thread in the misguided hope that everyone will be talking abt the instal fest

― Ward Fowler (Ward Fowler), Friday, 23 September 2005 13:07 (twenty years ago)

Do you mean read or read?

I hate instal.

― Cathy (Cathy), Friday, 23 September 2005 13:08 (twenty years ago)

hate is a strong word

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Friday, 23 September 2005 13:26 (twenty years ago)

I don't know about russian food

― RJG (RJG), Friday, 23 September 2005 13:26 (twenty years ago)

You could learn

― Onimo (GerryNemo), Friday, 23 September 2005 13:28 (twenty years ago)

― Mädchen (Madchen), Friday, 23 September 2005 13:31 (twenty years ago)

the theory, perhaps

― RJG (RJG), Friday, 23 September 2005 13:31 (twenty years ago)

I am moving to glasgow next weekend. Can someone summarise this entire thread for me. 'tis very long.

― hmmm (hmmm), Friday, 23 September 2005 13:35 (twenty years ago)

asshoppers need not apply

― RJG (RJG), Friday, 23 September 2005 13:37 (twenty years ago)

You are such a meanie.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Friday, 23 September 2005 13:38 (twenty years ago)

― RJG (RJG), Friday, 23 September 2005 13:38 (twenty years ago)
