I saw Gareth's disembodied head floating evilly over my city on his way to Los Angeles.

― Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 03:00 (twenty-three years ago)

me too! hstencil on ave a in white jeans.

― Mary (Mary), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 03:04 (twenty-three years ago)

Not only white jeans, but with MY DATE!

― hstencil, Wednesday, 30 April 2003 04:14 (twenty-three years ago)

ha ha you always be having a date

― Mary (Mary), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 04:15 (twenty-three years ago)

By the evidence of this thread, I am the most spotted ILxOr in London. Its my out and about and garoulous stylings to be sure.

― Pete (Pete), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 08:07 (twenty-three years ago)

you're always spotted bcz you have a gorgeous girl with you pete. you're a playa.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 08:29 (twenty-three years ago)

What was Anna doing outside HSA's flat?!? Are you suspicious?

-- Martin Skidmore

Stop stiring Skidmore. I was around there due to my total inability to ever find the AKA bar. I thought getting off at Russell Square and walking would dothe trick. It didn't.

Thanks for the haircut props Kate. I didn't think it made that much difference, but about four or five people have also failed to recognise me.

― Anna (Anna), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 08:53 (twenty-three years ago)

I'm a playa only because life's a beach.

― Pete (Pete), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 09:49 (twenty-three years ago)

Anna, you're better off getting off at Holborn and following the westbound buses to that corner where Bloomsbury Way becomes New Oxford Street - I think the Old Crown pub is there next to a Winkworth etc, and the carpark. You will then see the clear way to AKA and The End.

― suzy (suzy), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 09:53 (twenty-three years ago)

Or doing exactly the same from TCR tube walking past Arguus and then turning right at the Old Crown.

Though isn't Russell Square lovely at the moment.

― Pete (Pete), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 09:58 (twenty-three years ago)

Pete, my friend's Polish dad calls it Aggros.

Methinks Anna got off Chariot of the Gods aka 91 bus just a bit too quickly.

― suzy (suzy), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 10:01 (twenty-three years ago)

Theoretically I know where it is. It just seems to move. I thought appraoching from a different angle might help.

Russell Square is gorgeous at the moment. Well except for the wino who jumped up off a bench and shouted "You're not old enough to be in here."

― Anna (Anna), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 10:34 (twenty-three years ago)

I like Russell Square. The fountain is really good for "I'm gonna push you in the fountain!" "No, I'm going to push YOU in the fountain!" type tussles. ;-)

― kate, Wednesday, 30 April 2003 10:37 (twenty-three years ago)

Ah the 91 - the ILE bus.

Actually the only ILXor I ever bump into in Crouch End is Marianna. Still this may be due to me avoiding Barbella's and having our own Banners On the Hill at the moment.

I can't waiot until the roses grow over the arches in about ten years... I may go spend an hours contemplation in there now. (Or I may go shopping).

― Pete (Pete), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 11:12 (twenty-three years ago)

I can see Russell Sq from my window!!

― Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 11:12 (twenty-three years ago)

You can't see Russell Square from HSA's window (though you can see their own private square. And CentrePoint) but you can see it from his doorstep!

Are we the new Bloomsbury? Do we all revolve around Russell Square?

― kate, Wednesday, 30 April 2003 11:21 (twenty-three years ago)

I always have revolved around Bloomsbury. (Shock - thinking about this gives me the cary fact that I have worked in Russell Sqaure for the last EIGHT YEARS!!!!)

HSA is loaded if he lives there.

Of course if Russell Square is the environ of choice, I run the local.

― Pete (Pete), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 11:23 (twenty-three years ago)

I should add - that's my work window, not my home window. HSA = a playa? ;)

― Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 11:27 (twenty-three years ago)

The flat is not HSA's. It belongs to his family. I suspect Bloomsbury links, due to his Grandfather's AIP status. ;-)

― kate, Wednesday, 30 April 2003 11:31 (twenty-three years ago)

Yup, he's a playa!

L-R Kate, HSA, some random guy...

― Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 11:42 (twenty-three years ago)

ha ha you always be having a date

what is that supposed to mean? : (

― hstencil, Wednesday, 30 April 2003 12:23 (twenty-three years ago)

It doesn't seem like a mysterious statement.

― Ally (mlescaut), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 12:26 (twenty-three years ago)

Hey, where did my post go? This has been happening a lot lately!

I said that hstencil was also a PLAYAH and therefore the mystery of the "third man" in the photo of me and HSA is solved!

― kate, Wednesday, 30 April 2003 12:30 (twenty-three years ago)

BTW, AIP has been changed from meaning An Important Poet to An Important Playah. Dope fresh, you be down with my New Verse, ya'll here? Word. Sworth.

― kate, Wednesday, 30 April 2003 12:31 (twenty-three years ago)

*ker-ching*

Well played, Kate.

― suzy (suzy), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 12:33 (twenty-three years ago)

oh Ally I'm just upset Mary didn't say "hey your date was nice" or "hey your date was cute" or other nice things. : (

― hstencil, Wednesday, 30 April 2003 12:34 (twenty-three years ago)

Did you ever consider that maybe Mary didn't find her nice?

― Ally (mlescaut), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 12:36 (twenty-three years ago)

but we had a nice 2 minute conversation or whatever!

― hstencil, Wednesday, 30 April 2003 12:37 (twenty-three years ago)

Well, don't argue with me, I didn't meet her, I'm sure she's lovely.

― Ally (mlescaut), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 12:38 (twenty-three years ago)

(aside to kate, I think the guy who's to the right of Ice-T is the guy who did all his beats, so maybe it'd make sense that that's HSA? But then again, he's the main pimp, so...)

― hstencil, Wednesday, 30 April 2003 12:38 (twenty-three years ago)

PETE! I don't want to freak you out, but are you a fair(ish)-haired chap currently sat in front of a computer with something green on the top of it? I think I passed by your window earlier!

! -----> Stalker alert!

― Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 13:04 (twenty-three years ago)

I'm upset that hstencil didn't say that the 2 minute conversation that I had with him was nice. It is obvious that he only considers the conversation with Mary nice.

― felicity (felicity), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 18:13 (twenty-three years ago)

Maybe if you didn't kick him in the shins and run away, he'd like the conversation better?

― Ally (mlescaut), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 18:15 (twenty-three years ago)

sorry, felicity, I meant the conversation with both of you. My conversation with the both of you was nice, although I feel a bit silly for accidentally calling my date by your name. I hope you weren't offended. Some sort of Freudian slip there, surely.

― hstencil, Wednesday, 30 April 2003 18:15 (twenty-three years ago)

hstencil, your date was indeed lovely, but i am worried that you are not concentrating enough attention on her and are already dreaming of the next girl, the next date

― Mary (Mary), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 18:16 (twenty-three years ago)

You called your date felicity!!! Did she agree to ever see you again?

― Ally (mlescaut), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 18:16 (twenty-three years ago)

oh no! but after we saw you we spent an hour in Tompkins Square Park, talking and smooching!

― hstencil, Wednesday, 30 April 2003 18:17 (twenty-three years ago)

sorry, by kicking you in the shins and haranguing you about squash goggles I meant "Your date is a fox."

It was not obvious to me that it was a date but if I start evaluating their looks now, then one day I might just say nothing and you'll take it to mean your date is ugly. SO best not start.

― felicity (felicity), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 18:18 (twenty-three years ago)

well it wasn't so much a date date as it was a get-together-for-a-little-while-before-hstencil-leaves-town-and-date-is-sick date. That is, it wasn't as phenomenal a date as our first one, last Thursday. That said, it was still lots of fun.

― hstencil, Wednesday, 30 April 2003 18:19 (twenty-three years ago)

and I like her a lot.

― hstencil, Wednesday, 30 April 2003 18:27 (twenty-three years ago)

Damn, with this and the obviously thrilling discussion on another thread of Felicity revisiting London, I can just see me doing this (calling her Felicity) on my next date. It's not until next week, so with luck the likelihood will fade.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 18:28 (twenty-three years ago)

I too shall call my next date "Felicity."

― felicity (felicity), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 18:30 (twenty-three years ago)

Must we use the word "date"?

― Mary (Mary), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 18:30 (twenty-three years ago)

what is wrong with that word, Mary?

― hstencil, Wednesday, 30 April 2003 18:30 (twenty-three years ago)

it's just so ugh

― Mary (Mary), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 18:33 (twenty-three years ago)

Yeah, it's like calling an Asian person "an Asian." Objectifying.

― felicity (felicity), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 18:34 (twenty-three years ago)

How about "sexual liasion"?

― Ally (mlescaut), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 18:35 (twenty-three years ago)

in reference to a person or an activity? Or both? And what should I call her then? Don't wanna use her name here, and I think it's way too early to be saying "girlfriend" (yikes!)...

― hstencil, Wednesday, 30 April 2003 18:35 (twenty-three years ago)

May 1, 2003, henceforth you shall be known as "Felicity."

― felicity (felicity), Wednesday, 30 April 2003 18:35 (twenty-three years ago)

but we didn't have sexual liasons last night, Ally! She's sick.

― hstencil, Wednesday, 30 April 2003 18:35 (twenty-three years ago)
