Oooh *news* - where is Madchen going on her hols?

― Lara (Lara), Monday, 13 February 2006 00:26 (twenty years ago)

I was, but it's now looking a bit wobbly.

:-(

And not just because you've got DVDs for me, honest.

Lara, Madchen is going to India, fancy bird that she is. What's wrong with Benidorm like the rest of us, eh?

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 13 February 2006 03:35 (twenty years ago)

I'm going to benidorm on wednesday

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 13 February 2006 07:31 (twenty years ago)

I'll be going to Bognor or something this year :-/

― Onimo (GerryNemo), Monday, 13 February 2006 10:16 (twenty years ago)

Lara, we're probably going to spend some time in Goa. Advice here please: I'm off to India (Alba's advice welcome too).

― Mädchen (Madchen), Monday, 13 February 2006 11:16 (twenty years ago)

Dioralite (sp?)

― Mooro (Mooro), Monday, 13 February 2006 11:20 (twenty years ago)

Thanks Mooro, but my plan is to lose enough weight in the first week to look acceptable in a bikini in the second.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Monday, 13 February 2006 11:38 (twenty years ago)

Haha, if I don't make the Feb dates it'll probably be April for me because I'm off to India as well.

I can post your DVDs if you're desperate.

Anyone want to do LASERS next Tuesday?

The Glasgow and West Scotland Branch of the BA together with the Institute of Physics in Scotland presents:
Lasers, Proton Beams and Nuclear Medicine

Talk to be held at the Glasgow Science Centre at 7.30 pm on Tuesday, 21st February.
FREE!!! ALL Welcome!!! No tickets required, however seats in the lecture theatre will be filled on a first come first served basis.

By firing an ultra-powerful - a million billion watts - laser beam at a solid target, it is possible to reproduce conditions which have previously only been found in stars. The lasers can generate particles including protons, electrons, neutrons and positrons which are of great interest to plasma, nuclear and astrophysicists but are also exciting for medical applications. Positrons can be used to find tumours and protons can be used to treat tumours with greater efficiency than conventional radiotherapy. In the longer term it may even be possible to use ultra-intense laser beams to help dispose of radioactive waste.

This talk will be presented at a level that can be understood by non-specialists and students at both school and university. A number of laser demonstrations will be given

hay guyz what's going on in this thread?

"Thanks Mooro, but my plan is to lose enough weight in the first week to look acceptable in a bikini in the second."

Hmm. Pam's upsets in this area lasted for most of the 3 weeks she was there & for about a month afterwards. Hope your plan works, though. Maybe pack bikinis in a range of sizes.

― Mooro (Mooro), Monday, 13 February 2006 16:54 (twenty years ago)

There is only one size of bikini at the moment: doesn't fit.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Monday, 13 February 2006 16:55 (twenty years ago)

I'm not really going to benidorm on wednesday

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 13 February 2006 17:03 (twenty years ago)

Science Week used to be in March. Or are they running this kind of events now all year long due to popular demand? I will be so impressed

― olenska (olenska), Monday, 13 February 2006 17:09 (twenty years ago)

I'm going to barcelona on wednesday

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 13 February 2006 18:15 (twenty years ago)

we want to go to benidorm.

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 13 February 2006 18:40 (twenty years ago)

Today I was driving home from work just between the Western and the Kelvin Hall when who should run across the road in front of my car but Stew. I waved, but he didn't see me.

Last week I saw Manda Rin outside my work (the epicentre of celeb-spotting in Glasgow, it would seem). I might have seen other people but I've forgotten what you all look like. When are we going to the pub?

― ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 16 February 2006 20:39 (twenty years ago)

I saw you the other night.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 16 February 2006 20:41 (twenty years ago)

Yeah, I saw you too. And then I saw Onimo later that very same evening. I'm just being snarky because I'm wanting an excuse to go to the pub.

By the way, it just occurred to me that none of you lot probably read the ILX parenting thread, so let me throw in *another* excuse for fappage, that being Onimo's impending daddyhood.

― ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 16 February 2006 23:31 (twenty years ago)

He already is a daddy, silly. /pedantry

(Woo Onimo!)

I keep forgetting to phone Jo and Ian.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Friday, 17 February 2006 09:56 (twenty years ago)

Has anyone seen the new easyjet routes from Glasgow. I did a search for flights to Berlin in the middle of August and got a fare of £36 inc taxes, bargain.

― leigh (leigh), Friday, 17 February 2006 10:18 (twenty years ago)

Yeah, my parents got mad stupid cheap flights to come home and visit from Malaga. I did point out it would have been much better had they bought mad stupid cheap flights for us to go and visit them, but, no, they had to do it their way.

Madchen, have you remembered to phone them yet? I mean, obviously you have remembered about phoning them, but have you put this into practice?

― ailsa (ailsa), Friday, 17 February 2006 17:54 (twenty years ago)

Madchen, you have mail (gmail).

It's Dahlin's birthday soon. PUB! PUB! PUB! PUB!

― ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 22 February 2006 00:27 (twenty years ago)

No, I am still forgetting. Please keep reminding me. Darn, I wish they had email (or if they do now, I wish I knew the address).

― Mädchen (Madchen), Wednesday, 22 February 2006 05:09 (twenty years ago)

"Today I was driving home from work just between the Western and the Kelvin Hall when who should run across the road in front of my car but Stew. I waved, but he didn't see me."

Hi dere!

Hey everybody - come to Chris Brokaw at Mono tonight. He's great, support act Skeleton Bob are great, and my group Older & Faraway, who maybe aren't so great, are making our live debut. It's me playing geetar with Mogwai's cellist. More Americana than post-rock though.
I'm spinning some tunes too. Fiver on the door. Bargain!

― stew!, Wednesday, 22 February 2006 09:25 (twenty years ago)

I didn't pay

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 23 February 2006 18:19 (twenty years ago)

didn't stay either tho

― cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 23 February 2006 18:19 (twenty years ago)

Madchen, I have Jo's email, shall I take responsibility whilst you are sunning yourself in the name of work? And arrange something for when you come back?

― ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 23 February 2006 18:51 (twenty years ago)

Ah, Cozen you cad! You missed me mucking up a chord change and playing a mighty Neil Young esque solo during the last song.
Chris Brokaw was fantastic. Even better in Edinburgh last night.

― stew!, Friday, 24 February 2006 13:12 (twenty years ago)

cobalt on sauchiehall st has cunningly lost the lt and turned the b into a d, I noticed, today -- the australian/new zealandish one w/ the funny hair that cut mine ages ago was locking up

― RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 1 March 2006 19:50 (twenty years ago)

missed the 6000th post, here

― RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 1 March 2006 19:53 (twenty years ago)

Tried new Glasgow and old Glasgow, these past couple of nights. Interesting.

― Ally C (Ally C), Thursday, 2 March 2006 00:46 (twenty years ago)

you old fanny

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 2 March 2006 00:47 (twenty years ago)

Are people going to Belle and Sebastian at Triptych?

― ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 2 March 2006 00:50 (twenty years ago)

I'd rather go to jackson in edinburgh

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 2 March 2006 00:54 (twenty years ago)

Jackson is in Mississippi (this is what I learned from the pub quiz tonight).

I want to go to see the Fire Engines in Edinburgh since I missed them at Optimo.

― ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 2 March 2006 00:56 (twenty years ago)

I am going to Optimo on Sunday. That's probably as far as I'll stretch right now.

― Ally C (Ally C), Thursday, 2 March 2006 01:12 (twenty years ago)

you're going to the silver jews on fri

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 2 March 2006 01:21 (twenty years ago)

Wikipedia thanks its contributors for creating over 1,000,000 articles.

Our millionth article: Jordanhill railway station.

― scotstvo (scotstvo), Thursday, 2 March 2006 10:37 (twenty years ago)

pub quizzes are a source of knowledge that should not be overlooked by CI / BI guys. I once learnt that New Model Army´s boots were made in Northhampton.

― olenska (olenska), Thursday, 2 March 2006 10:53 (twenty years ago)

Presumably Cromwell's NMA and not the popular Bradford beat combo, because their clogs were made in Northallerton.

Cromwell´s, indeed.

Lovely poster. But we are not going to Glasgow anymore, just London.boohoo

i will be trying edinburgh and glasgow for triptych japes. i think. i need to refine my list slightly.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Thursday, 2 March 2006 17:08 (twenty years ago)

It's just noise.

The Winchester Club: da bomb

Hello!

It's just noise.

some of it might be crap.
