Even if Claire Danes is here?

― Mädchen (Madchen), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 10:07 (twenty years ago)

RJG, no! why?

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 11:20 (twenty years ago)

where will you go?

― cozen (Cozen), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 13:23 (twenty years ago)

somewhere where no-one knows me just kidding

― RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 13:24 (twenty years ago)

I don't ever want to be leaving

― cozen (Cozen), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 13:33 (twenty years ago)

I am still trying to arrange Christmas schedules but FAPage on the 27th or 28th December may well be on offer.

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 13:33 (twenty years ago)

I'll be back in Glasgow at about 7.30pm on 28th December.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 13:44 (twenty years ago)

― heh, Tuesday, 15 November 2005 13:50 (twenty years ago)

― Jdubz (ex machina), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 14:05 (twenty years ago)

very good

― RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 14:12 (twenty years ago)

aldo - when come, bring butteries (Tesco has let me down)! I may well have daughterly duties to fulfil on 27th, but I can endeavour to send the parents back northwards to freezing northland in order for 28th FAPpage. Or delay their arrival until 28th in order for 27th FAPpage. ("sorry, parents, would love to do festive things with you but I'm off to the pub with mentalists instead").

Shall I just cancel Raeburns then?

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 18:31 (twenty years ago)

fappery/fappage/whatever the noun is on the 28th would probably suit me better than the 27th, but ... that all depends on how many ropey magazines i can cobble together before christmas to maximise day-off potential :)

aldo, yes, bring butteries. hundreds of the fuckers.

and yes, let's do raeburn's some time in the new year. assuming the horrific winter weather doesn't submerge paisley under 100ft of snow, or something.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 18:49 (twenty years ago)

Also, LET'S GO CURLING!!! Or at least ice-skating! I am awaiting the new fake-snow indoor ski thingie that's opening down the road from me (I can see it out my window) like a very excited child, but in the meantime, we should make FAP-on-ice happen.

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 19:24 (twenty years ago)

I hope I get to Glasgow in time to go ice-skating in George Square. The boots always give me blisters and I get knackered after ten minutes but it is still worth the £8, I think.

― Cathy (Cathy), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 20:07 (twenty years ago)

FAP-on-ice

count me the skidding fuck out. i've never been on a pair of skates in my life, and i certainly don't intend to start at the age of 30 ;)

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 20:20 (twenty years ago)

also: we'd spill our pints.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 20:22 (twenty years ago)

I really meant curling, you don't need skates for that. I thought you were up for it when we talked about it when aldo was up the last time. However booze --> skating ---> more booze is good fun too. Honest. Or you can stand at the side with an over-priced mulled wine and pish yourself laughing instead.

No-one's going to want to do this, are they?

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 20:29 (twenty years ago)

Curling! I don't know about. I'd go skating though. As long as GF wasn't allowed to stand at the side sniggering when I fell.

― stet (stet), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 20:31 (twenty years ago)

In that sentence, does GF stand for Grimly Fiendish or GirlFriend? Can we both laugh at you?

Im totally up for curling.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 20:42 (twenty years ago)

x-post, assuming it means me:

no, when you fell i'd come slip-sliding over and drop a curling stone on your pods.

it'd be funny, honest.

as for being up for curling ... this rings a faint bell. i'd say "ah, but i was drunk" ... only i wasn't drinking that night. hmm.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 20:44 (twenty years ago)

Stet, I notice that Grimly Fiendish has an unhealthy fascination with causing you pain in a particularly sensitive area. I'm sure you'd already noticed.

Let's go curling in Paisley! Or between Glasgow and Paisley!!

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 21:03 (twenty years ago)

I'm sure you'd already noticed

wam! bash! zung! ooof! etc.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 23:08 (twenty years ago)

*cups stones*

― stet (stet), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 23:11 (twenty years ago)

it's the two (amusingly mis-sized) stooges. glasgow should be delighted that it's getting all this top-quality entertainment for free.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 23:12 (twenty years ago)

*cups stones*

Is that a curling term then?

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 23:37 (twenty years ago)

hello :)

cozen, no credit. yes to DFA. who else is coming?

― jed_ (jed), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 23:50 (twenty years ago)

Yes, sorry. Keep meaning to find out who's going and get tickets. Should just get my own, I guess.

― Alba (Alba), Tuesday, 15 November 2005 23:54 (twenty years ago)

me & ally, apparently

how much?

― RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 00:51 (twenty years ago)

eleven.

― jed_ (jed), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 01:02 (twenty years ago)

i think

― jed_ (jed), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 01:04 (twenty years ago)

yes that's right. 11 in advance & 12 at the door.

― jed_ (jed), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 01:06 (twenty years ago)

: )

― RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 01:17 (twenty years ago)

yr welcome

in advance also allows you to join the faster moving queue i believe.

― jed_ (jed), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 01:23 (twenty years ago)

try glasgow more.

― jeffrey (johnson), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 05:49 (twenty years ago)

"apparently"

― cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 10:07 (twenty years ago)

: )

I am going

― cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 10:11 (twenty years ago)

OK, at massive personal sacrifice I will bring my last 6 butteries. (although I think I have found a recipe and may try making some)

Curling at Paisley on Weds 28th sounds ace. There are still pubs in Paisley you don't automatically get bottled in, aren't there?

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 10:24 (twenty years ago)

"still"?

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 10:42 (twenty years ago)

I'm presuming AT SOME POINT IN THE HISTORY OF MANKIND there were. I realise this logic may be flawed.

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 11:01 (twenty years ago)

Can anyone tell me anything about a pub called The Tap at 1055-1061 Sauchiehall Street? Apparently they have a pub quiz there on a Tuesday, and a friend is wondering if it would be suitable for a work team outing.
ta!

― alext (alext), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 12:39 (twenty years ago)

It is a horrid studenty place.

― Alba (Alba), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 12:42 (twenty years ago)

(I mean, a place for students who are horrid)

― Alba (Alba), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 12:43 (twenty years ago)

not: "a place for students, who are horrid"

― Alba (Alba), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 12:45 (twenty years ago)

So a load of civil servants will stick out like a sore bum?

― alext (alext), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 12:48 (twenty years ago)

I shouldn't think anyone will care. I just think it's a pretty tacky place.

― Alba (Alba), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 13:05 (twenty years ago)

it used to be nice

― RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 13:34 (twenty years ago)

We did the quiz there once and it was crap, remember?

― Mädchen (Madchen), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 13:45 (twenty years ago)

i just opened 3 other threads and browsed ILM in another window in the time it took this one to open.

― jed_ (jed), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 13:53 (twenty years ago)

I just got DFA tix for me, Ally and Richard. I didn't get you one, David, coz I didn't know if you had one already or not. They're on sale at Art School bar (or Monorail if that's closer).

― Alba (Alba), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 14:13 (twenty years ago)

(the woman complained that the Squarepusher tickets were easier to rip)

― Alba (Alba), Wednesday, 16 November 2005 14:14 (twenty years ago)
