I'm keen to meet both of you - I will try to stand the excitement of both in one night!

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Saturday, 10 May 2003 09:55 (twenty-one years ago) link

I'm not too exciting. Though I can turn my ears inside out.

― Cozen (Cozen), Saturday, 10 May 2003 09:56 (twenty-one years ago) link

I talk rubbish and then go silent for varying time periods.

So, is it May 27th?

When is Geeta coming to London?

― jel -- (jel), Saturday, 10 May 2003 11:16 (twenty-one years ago) link

In june (that's what she told me so that will prob be the june FAP).

*bump*

― Cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 10:05 (twenty-one years ago) link

I'll be along to this as well, then (I have a job now). Where is it, exactly?

― William Bloody Swygart (mrswygart), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 10:26 (twenty-one years ago) link

27th May is PAYDAY! I'll be there!

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 11:03 (twenty-one years ago) link

Depending on wherever 'there' is, of course.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 11:03 (twenty-one years ago) link

I can make this - Mel do you still want that Uncut magazine?

― Tico Tico (Tico Tico), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 11:05 (twenty-one years ago) link

27th? So that's next Tuesday? OK I can do that!

Oh hold on - June 27th?? Mel I am going to mail you my sodding mobile number just in case anyway. You may also wish to know I have an ITCHY BACK. Arrgh!

― Sarah (starry), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 11:06 (twenty-one years ago) link

Oh, I hate itchy backs.

― Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 11:10 (twenty-one years ago) link

So...where are we going? Let's go somewhere actually GOOD.

― Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 11:11 (twenty-one years ago) link

Wait, Cozen - can you make this or no?

― Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 11:11 (twenty-one years ago) link

Pakenham Arms?

― Pete (Pete), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 11:12 (twenty-one years ago) link

The Black Horse in Colindale!

― Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 11:15 (twenty-one years ago) link

Quaglino's!

― Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 11:15 (twenty-one years ago) link

Browns! China White!

― Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 11:15 (twenty-one years ago) link

Come to Croydon! We have Nando's!

― William Bloody Swygart (mrswygart), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 11:16 (twenty-one years ago) link

Also - All Bar One! Yates'! Tiger Tiger! Noodle Time (No Need To Book, Plenty Of Room)!

Croydon - It Is Great, Plus I Only Need To Take One Bus To Get There!

― William Bloody Swygart (mrswygart), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 11:18 (twenty-one years ago) link

i like Croydon - trams, Doughmasters, clock tower cinema, j0e lives there...

― stevem (blueski), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 11:20 (twenty-one years ago) link

I could fancy a Nando's, actually...

― Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 11:21 (twenty-one years ago) link

I think Melissa would like The Hippodrome. After an England game.

― Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 11:21 (twenty-one years ago) link

Teh Pakenham Arms is Radiohead favourite pub in London.

― Pete (Pete), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 11:22 (twenty-one years ago) link

And quite near Russel Sq eh? I think a nice ISLINGTON beer would be good! Where is Melissa staying though?

― Sarah (starry), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 11:44 (twenty-one years ago) link

Teh Pakenham Arms is Radiohead favourite pub in London.

This has so many potentially amusing connotations that I don't know where to start...

― Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 11:46 (twenty-one years ago) link

The Pakenham arms is full of lairy posties, if you mean the one near Mount Pleasant.

― chris (chris), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 11:51 (twenty-one years ago) link

The Pakenham Arms looks a bit of alright, actually

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 11:54 (twenty-one years ago) link

Phwoar!

― Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 11:55 (twenty-one years ago) link

Well I like it. Posties should be in bed by six.

― Pete (Pete), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 11:59 (twenty-one years ago) link

The Pakenham Arms is indeed full of Mount Pleasant posties but is, luckily, about five minutes' walk from our flat.

― suzy (suzy), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 12:08 (twenty-one years ago) link

Is it not bright yellow now? or am i suffering from false memory syndrome again? It gets rammed when there's footie on. And it's not as good as the apple tree.

― chris (chris), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 12:13 (twenty-one years ago) link

I think it is yellow now, but the Apple Tree is a good call too. Key point is that there aint no footie.

― Pete (Pete), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 12:14 (twenty-one years ago) link

The Apple Tree is open until 1.00. PH34R!

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 12:17 (twenty-one years ago) link

B-but FAP? Smiths surely?

― Tim (Tim), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 12:18 (twenty-one years ago) link

Also that area = not simple for our guests to find or get back from (though it suits me obv., being nearer to the Centre of London than our usual West End spots).

― Tim (Tim), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 12:20 (twenty-one years ago) link

Greene King, Tim, and 80 shilling!

― chris (chris), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 12:20 (twenty-one years ago) link

80 Bob + schoolnight = sulky me

― Tim (Tim), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 12:22 (twenty-one years ago) link

80 Shilling = mmmmmm, yes!

― RickyT (RickyT), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 12:29 (twenty-one years ago) link

I can't guarantee it as a guest beer in a months time though kids

― chris (chris), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 12:29 (twenty-one years ago) link

I believe melissa is staying in kate's room so apple tree is ideal.

― Ed (dali), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 12:32 (twenty-one years ago) link

80's not on at the minute, I think it's broadside or something.

Apple tree have nicer vibe than the packenham, which will still be full of posties. I never feel as comfortable in the packenham as I do in the apple tree. Apple tree is flexible to get to, as you can walk from KX or Farringdon in 10 mins, and chancery lane in 5 mins, and the 38, 19, 55 243, 341, 63, 45, 46, 17 go very close.

Oh my God, a FAP within 1 minute of my workplace?! Too good to be true!

― Vicky (Vicky), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 13:10 (twenty-one years ago) link

This is next Tuesday isn't it? Apple Tree and all.

― Pete (Pete), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 14:18 (twenty-one years ago) link

One minute? It's about 15 seconds, and that's if you're strolling!

― Mark C (Mark C), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 15:42 (twenty-one years ago) link

I will be there.

― Cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 16:16 (twenty-one years ago) link

kinda far out for me (and my tube hate), will try to be there.

― jel -- (jel), Wednesday, 21 May 2003 16:19 (twenty-one years ago) link

Hey there all... I'd still love to do the 27th, but there's a very very very tiny chance that I may be going to see Radiohead at Later with Jools Holland that day. I'll keep you all updated, I just don't know yet (it depends upon if I win tickets, unless some of you have a hot Jools Holland connection and can get me one).

― Melissa W (Melissa W), Thursday, 22 May 2003 07:08 (twenty-one years ago) link

starry you have caused MUCH CONFUSION by mentioning june up there (at least in my head anyway).

so this is next week then? i like the apple tree.

― CarsmileSteve (CarsmileSteve), Thursday, 22 May 2003 07:57 (twenty-one years ago) link

Don't blame me Steve, blame Julio, he's the one banging on abt June... next Tuesday @ the Apple Tree then?

― Sarah (starry), Thursday, 22 May 2003 08:14 (twenty-one years ago) link

Turns out, I won't be able to make it to Londres :(

― Cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 22 May 2003 08:21 (twenty-one years ago) link
