can we go dancing again soon?

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 18:29 (twenty years ago)

there's a greek food thread? and i'm missing it!?!?! bah!
looks like i'll also be missing fancy food fapping, as i'll be on a plane to the promised land... where the food is far superior! ha!
the south side greek place is disappointing. and TINY. unsuitable for fappage.
and um... the 'turkish version of kiss kiss' is the ORIGINAL FAR SUPERIOR version by TARKAN, Turkey's very own Michael Jackson! i have it on tape!
i love Turkey! mmmm. (not turkey tho, which makes the prospect of thanksgiving in america less exciting)
((apologies for the cross posts times 100, but i've been unable to post at work and was waiting all night to reply and.. yeah, i'm LAME))

I've just been watching Alba's dad on the telly.

You might not get turkey for Thanksgiving in case it's been infected by bird flu (but you're a veggie anyway aren't you, so it's all academic).

If you can drag your sorry Glasgow arses through to Paisley some time, I cannot recommend this place highly enough for future feeding extravaganzas.

― ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 20 October 2005 20:24 (twenty years ago)

we nearly moved to paisley a few years ago. raeburn's sounds cool. paisley FAP! then a saunter to feegie park with a big fucking chib. ROCK.

braidwoods is meant to be brilliant, yes. [reads] fuck me, it's got a michelin star! let's roll.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Thursday, 20 October 2005 21:13 (twenty years ago)

I can confirm, it's fantastic.

I went on an anniversary

ooh la la

we're not still together & I'm miserable

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 20 October 2005 21:15 (twenty years ago)

Dang, that's the same night as Sleater Kinney. Maybe we can meet in the pub somewhere afterwards...

― Stew (stew s), Thursday, 20 October 2005 22:18 (twenty years ago)

Incidentally, when are we having an old-man-tastic-FAP in the Station Bar Cowcaddens as proposed way back in the mists of time?

My little man says - dancing, yes.

Fuckin sweatball.

― Ally C (Ally C), Thursday, 20 October 2005 23:31 (twenty years ago)

i wanna to go to Braidwoods and i wanna dance.

― jed_ (jed), Thursday, 20 October 2005 23:59 (twenty years ago)

There's a restaurant in DALRY that has a Michelin star? Well fuck me. And to think I went to the bloody Dalgarven Mill that one time instead. Anyone fancy PayDayFAP tonight then?

― stet (stet), Friday, 21 October 2005 00:05 (twenty years ago)

on second thought: if it's that good, reservations could be hard to get. God, what a novel thought: an Ayrshire restaurant you can't just walk in to.

― stet (stet), Friday, 21 October 2005 00:37 (twenty years ago)

Another quote from Rumpie on the Greek Food thread: "I think my fussiness may make it difficult to consume anything" :)

Mr Ailsa is right, I should be able to get my arse in gear and organise this. I'll call today and provisionally book a table for 10 at the Kosh on the 11th and we can sort out numbers properly after that.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Friday, 21 October 2005 06:09 (twenty years ago)

braidwoods would be too small for all of us I think and also too difficult to co-ordinate

― cozen (Cozen), Friday, 21 October 2005 07:00 (twenty years ago)

I wish I could have watched Alba's dad on the telly :-(

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller 68), Friday, 21 October 2005 07:23 (twenty years ago)

You could listen to him on the radio instead if you like!

― Alba (Alba), Friday, 21 October 2005 07:27 (twenty years ago)

anyone know anyone

who teaches french lessons?

― cozen (Cozen), Friday, 21 October 2005 07:42 (twenty years ago)

I just listened to him! I didn't realise it was him until they read the credits at the end. My poor Mum will never get to see/hear him. She's in Barbados at the moment.

i was in the station bar last night. it was quiet but topp. quality guest ale, as usual.

i'd be up for fappery there any time (tho not tonite, stet: i'm going to teh gym, and have to set off at the crack of dawn tomorrow for this goddamn wedding).

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Friday, 21 October 2005 08:48 (twenty years ago)

not impressed

― c7n (Cozen), Friday, 21 October 2005 11:55 (twenty years ago)

OK, Alba! Here goes!

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller 68), Friday, 21 October 2005 11:57 (twenty years ago)

That was lovely, Nick.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller 68), Friday, 21 October 2005 12:17 (twenty years ago)

I would be well up for a PayDayFAP but unfortunately it is still ten days away from payday, so it won't be tonight. Instead I shall sit at home and do nowt. Now where's that "happy with your social life?" thread.

― ailsa (ailsa), Friday, 21 October 2005 15:45 (twenty years ago)

Also, I just work round the corner from you meeja types now, so any post-work old-man-tastic pint-drinking would be most welcome.

― ailsa (ailsa), Friday, 21 October 2005 18:52 (twenty years ago)

I second the post work old man Fap. Work at Skypark, so I can be at any of the meeja land boozers within twenty minutes. Being a temp every Friday is payday, so I'm flexible.

― Stew (stew s), Friday, 21 October 2005 19:14 (twenty years ago)

Oh yeah, I'm going to be an extra in a Belle & Seb BBC special. Anyone else joining in the twee fun?

― Stew (stew s), Friday, 21 October 2005 19:15 (twenty years ago)

I don't dress up on request

― RJG (RJG), Friday, 21 October 2005 19:17 (twenty years ago)

Look like you're from the 70s? Fuck that.

― KeefW (kmw), Friday, 21 October 2005 19:38 (twenty years ago)

cozen, what about isabelle?

I´m so annoyed to be missing alba´s dad.

― Cathy (Cathy), Friday, 21 October 2005 21:09 (twenty years ago)

oh, I´ve just remembered she´s in leeds. never mind.

― Cathy (Cathy), Friday, 21 October 2005 21:10 (twenty years ago)

try the south side less

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Friday, 21 October 2005 21:11 (twenty years ago)

I had a french tutor in glasgow for a while. His name was bertrand and he was belgian. He was really great. I think I´ve lost his phone number though. If you go into the modern languages building there will be lots of notices up about people giving french lessons, and much much cheaper than the alliance francaise.

― Cathy (Cathy), Friday, 21 October 2005 21:12 (twenty years ago)

but grimly where was that? govan, govanhill, shawlands?

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Friday, 21 October 2005 21:18 (twenty years ago)

Near that dodgy kebab shop you're forcing us to go to?

(Please tell everyone, for a laugh, that it was in Battlefield. The ironing, etc)

― ailsa (ailsa), Friday, 21 October 2005 21:19 (twenty years ago)

it was RIGHT OUTSIDE THE KEBAB SHOP IN BATTLEFIELD, yes!

(or is it langside? i've lived here for five years and nobody seems able to tell me where one starts and the other ends.)

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Friday, 21 October 2005 21:21 (twenty years ago)

Langside is where the college is, Battlefield is where that daft wee restaurant on the traffic island is. They are across the road from each other though, and I have no idea where they extend to from there.

I was in Langside Jobcentre the other day, which is on Battlefield Road. And right between the college and the stupid wee restaurant. Perhaps it is the dividing point between Langside, Battlefield and whatever else is that way.

ally's shapeshifting sibling?

― c7n (Cozen), Sunday, 23 October 2005 07:23 (twenty years ago)

Sorry to hear someone popped a cap in your bus Simon.

Dave D and I years ago decided we would like to go to work in one of these:

― KeefW (kmw), Sunday, 23 October 2005 10:36 (twenty years ago)

Ailsa, you can tell your other half that he is right, I am capable of organisation sometimes. I have booked a table for 10 at 8pm on 11th November. The list so far looks like this:

Me
Stet
Grimly Fiendish
Ally C
Ailsa
Mr Ailsa

Who else? I guess I can up the numbers if necessary, as long as I don't leave it too late. Any more takers?

― Mädchen (Madchen), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 07:06 (twenty years ago)

c7n

― c7n (Cozen), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 07:21 (twenty years ago)

Mr and Mrs Onimo are probables, we just need to arrange a babysitter.

― Onimo (GerryNemo), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 07:37 (twenty years ago)

Whereabouts is this taking place?

― scotstvo (scotstvo), Tuesday, 25 October 2005 08:33 (twenty years ago)

Oh, and the 11th, like the last time, is the day before a Scotland match, so no excuses this time Ailsa.
