I only meant I wasn't sure because I am not at full fitness (and one should be, really, for eurovision) and not because I don't want to be in madchen's house.

We're exempt because it was our idea. Of course you can come. Does that email address work? I'll send you my real life address.

RJG, have you been in my house before? I'm thinking the only people who've been in my house are Ally, N, family and non-Glasgow people. Oh, and my ex-boss.

I haven't been in your new house, no, even thought you have been, for a while. I like to leave my house as little as possible, as I'm sure many would testify.

― RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 11 May 2004 14:20 (twenty-two years ago)

Thanks, Madchen. Yes my email should work.

I think I'm getting pity fatigue, RJG.

― Cathy (Cathy), Tuesday, 11 May 2004 14:20 (twenty-two years ago)

that's a pity.

I should be putting these pictures on another thread.

― Madchen (Madchen), Tuesday, 11 May 2004 14:23 (twenty-two years ago)

No, it'll be OK when Scotland wins the competition & Eurovision tries Glasgow more because its hosting the event.

― Mooro (Mooro), Tuesday, 11 May 2004 14:25 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah, I just noticed there's a proper Eurovision thread. For Eurovision purposes Scotland is just an unimportant province of England. Although if it were ever to break away, maybe it could be the new Ireland.

― Cathy (Cathy), Tuesday, 11 May 2004 14:28 (twenty-two years ago)

or wales.

20 million can't be right.

― RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 11 May 2004 14:29 (twenty-two years ago)

20 million can't be wrong!

I just realised the first Eurovision I remember clearly was in 1991, when France and Sweden drew but Sweden won because they had more 12s. 1991 is also the first year I remember knowing what year it was. So I haven't missed one since I was 6.

― Cathy (Cathy), Tuesday, 11 May 2004 14:35 (twenty-two years ago)

I thought 1987 was a double year when i was young.

― Robbie Lumsden (Wallace Stevens HQ), Tuesday, 11 May 2004 14:36 (twenty-two years ago)

Stop making us feel ancient. I've emailed you Cathy.

― Madchen (Madchen), Tuesday, 11 May 2004 14:37 (twenty-two years ago)

so, what about that maryhill blowing up, again, eh?

― RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 11 May 2004 14:38 (twenty-two years ago)

A double year? I don't understand.

Pretty much everything I know about European geography I learnt from Eurovision...

Thanks Madchen :)

― Cathy (Cathy), Tuesday, 11 May 2004 14:38 (twenty-two years ago)

i don't really understand what i was getting at either. some how i thought that some years just go on twice as long as others. it seemed sensible at the time.

― Robbie Lumsden (Wallace Stevens HQ), Tuesday, 11 May 2004 14:41 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm going to go home in a bit and have a look. G20 might possibly be Glasgow's unluckiest postcode.

― Madchen (Madchen), Thursday, 13 May 2004 21:19 (twenty-two years ago)

thank you!

I bumped into cathy and RJG on the street (love yr visor!!!) and cathy said she would forward your details, madchen. so. see you on saturday. is it OK if I bring a girlfriend?

― cozen (Cozen), Friday, 14 May 2004 00:41 (twenty-two years ago)

cathy has forwarded your details and all I can say, among other things, is: fucking hell, the buses?

love, david.

― cozen (Cozen), Friday, 14 May 2004 00:46 (twenty-two years ago)

I 'ate you, 'owie.

― RJG (RJG), Friday, 14 May 2004 01:30 (twenty-two years ago)

whose girlfriend, btw?

― RJG (RJG), Friday, 14 May 2004 01:30 (twenty-two years ago)

Lots and lots of lovely buses. That is why everyone wants to live in Dennistoun. You could walk it - it's 25 minutes from George Square or probably 20 minutes for a bloke with a long stride.

Girlfried, eh? OK, as long as she doesn't puke on my flowerbeds.

― Madchen (Madchen), Friday, 14 May 2004 07:07 (twenty-two years ago)

Do you think people will see my invite on friendster or should I send an email just in case?

― Madchen (Madchen), Friday, 14 May 2004 07:07 (twenty-two years ago)

sp.

― cozen (Cozen), Friday, 14 May 2004 07:10 (twenty-two years ago)

Sorry.

― Madchen (Madchen), Friday, 14 May 2004 07:12 (twenty-two years ago)

she won't mind.

― cozen (Cozen), Friday, 14 May 2004 07:14 (twenty-two years ago)

1000

― RJG (RJG), Friday, 14 May 2004 10:55 (twenty-two years ago)

I wish!

― Madchen (Madchen), Friday, 14 May 2004 14:21 (twenty-two years ago)

I met dastoor on the street and he said something about the puking in the flowerbeds comment above and so I can only guess he's refraining from posting for some reason (over-pallyness? who knows) or other reasons.

― cozen (Cozen), Friday, 14 May 2004 16:03 (twenty-two years ago)

Just to remind anyone that steve and I shall be runnin' tings down at the Double-T pub Quiz tomorrow....

― Robbie Lumsden (Wallace Stevens HQ), Monday, 17 May 2004 14:55 (twenty-two years ago)

"james joyce round"?!

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 17 May 2004 17:12 (twenty-two years ago)

.....there is a question on James Joyce. perhaps....

― Robbie Lumsden (Wallace Stevens HQ), Monday, 17 May 2004 19:12 (twenty-two years ago)

How far is it from Manchester to Glasgow? Would the unsuspecting visitor benefit more from a sojourn to Edinburgh or to Glasgow, or indeed to Dundee?

― Mary (Mary), Monday, 17 May 2004 19:15 (twenty-two years ago)

Ooh, pub quiz! Where?

― ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 17 May 2004 20:35 (twenty-two years ago)

the doublet, on park rd. off gt. western road, behind the hogs head...

best bar in glasgow!

― Robbie Lumsden (Wallace Stevens HQ), Monday, 17 May 2004 20:36 (twenty-two years ago)

No it isn't (I used to live about a hundred yards from it, and it's full of scary people). I think we should try this, but I bet none of the others want to...
