try glasgow more

was disappointed it wasn't twice the size as mono

The seats are rubbish in Stereo. Should be quite quiet on a Tuesday, right enough. That's the first week of my holiday, so I might not actually be here if we get something booked/organised, which would be a shame, but if I'm around, I will be in a pub with you lot.

78 is the best of the lot.

Is that the "old" Stereo on Kelvinhaugh Street? Still not been since it reopened, although I walked past it the other week and it looked ace.

Sure is. It's really cosy and they have Samuel Smith's cheap and tasty Taddy Lager on tap.

i was at 78 last wednesday for their 'dub and grub' night - place was REALLY busy/crowded

I am tempted to believe it is better than Mono and Stereo, yes. Also nearer the Clyde Tunnel for taxis home, which makes it a winner in my book. Those wobbly high seats in Stereo are totally rubbish, I was in with Madchen and Stet last week and we were all rather precarious. Mono has gone up a wee bit in my estimation since they started serving real Guinness and not that Sam Smith's shite, and also by comparison to the Note, which was full of smelly metallers.

The sofa was good, though.

sofa so good

dr c might like the rec shop in mono?

Sofa was good, yes, until I had to try to manoeuvre my broken arse out of it (though after six pints, two ibuprofen and two co-codamols, I'd stopped feeling anything the pain by that point)

Am I to understand there is a meet-up in the works? If I'm about I'll put my social hat on and come along.

food is best in stereo; anything else is just challops

When I come I don't need food, just ale. Food is OK if general concensus though. What are Mono and Stereo?

Hope you can make it Ailsa!

shame the west brewery is stupidly far away from everything. st. mungos beer is A++

though obv i am a total west-ender, and going east of saltmarket is just inconceivable

bad but understandable attitude

I'm up for a meat up. Haven't seen some of you for a while.

meat up

Dr Freud! Quick, come and see what he's said now ...

Well, believe it or not it was actually just a subtle 'can we not go to Mono' point!

Tuesday is now fine because the football's on the Wednesday, was going to have to be a pub with a telly if the Champions League qualifier second leg was on the Tuesday. My attendance is entirely dependent on holiday plans now. Hopefully we can make it though, would be good to meet Dr C.

hello
coming to glasgow sept 4-11
who wants to translate?

Not me, you won't understand a word I'm saying. But we're nice to our visitors.

you'll be okay El Tomboto

Hey Tom - sounds cool, should meet for some sweet beers

Gukbe: they sell St Mungo's in the Bier Halle on GWR. They even have the West stein-style glasses. Also I think maybe the Goat? Should check it out.

(Hello all. To the people I know: yes, I've not been around in a while, but I am trying ILX more.)

Count me in for Tombot beers too, aye.

def. up for that

I will do all these beers, I think.

Definitely in for Tombot beers, will try to be in for Dr C beers.

I will tombot and dr. c

why u in glasgow tombot and dr.c, if yous don't mind me bein nosey?

To drink beers with you.

I am cool, I must admit

i will tombot beers, on holiday for dr c beers.

I'll do both, if my busy social schedule allows. I'm interested to meet real-life ILX folks.

you've met me, for about thirty seconds!

(I like how we've all arranged tombot beers, even without tombot asking for beers)

it's the protocol!

Aye, we'll just go for beers every day for a week. Turn up whenever.

so , yes.... Ñext tuesday?

I'm in. I'm 99% sure I'll be on a 10am start that day, so I should be done by 6.30-7pm and can hoy along and glug beer wherever you and the others might choose to meet. (Note how I'm absolving myself of any responsibility for choosing a venue there.)

I'll be there

Wherever there is

Mono!

Gah!

I have it in my head that Dr C is a real ale kind of guy. that requires a real pub.

How do people feel about the Pot Still? It is great, and we have been there before with little dissent.

I have it in my head that Dr C is a real ale kind of guy. that requires a real pub.

Ha, yes- real pubs are very much appreciated, but I'll leave it up to you folks. The Pot still looks great - my drinking capacity is somewhat reduced at the moment, so I won't be demolishing gallons of whiskey. Good ales are OK though.

the pot = the pewter pot?

No, Ken, the Pot Still is a real pub.

no idea why I put a question mark there, sorry.
