UK Watercooler 32: Fall Into The Meaning Gap

Aass is pretty well-regarded elsewhere in the country too actually, with "Friends of Drammen Beer" societies etc.

Is it pronounced like "arse"? God, I want to go to Norway even more, if I can walk in a pub and ask for a "pint of arse, please!"

No it is pronounced like AWES!

Aassome

Damn, you ruined my fun.

But, anyway, my fun has been ruined, since apprently the gossip from the tour is that these Lionhearts are nice, very religious boys from Trondheim and go home to pray instead of committing acts of naughtiness. Very disappointed with this. Although I could take one home to meet my mum and she'd be happy about that!

I'm a happy girl, though, coz I get to have Messican for lunch.

Aassome.

I am now full of lovely tasty Messican food, and I has an autoharp tuning key!

(Though I had to take Emsk with me to stop the lovely shopfolk from making me try out and/or buy every instrument in the shop.)

They had a lovely oud in the window, but she wouldn't even let me look at it!

The Bowlers Holding, The batsmans Willey

Classic quote there.

Ed, im afraid the Chambers Brothers album isnt much cop, neither is the live album I have. Time Will Come Today really is the stand out song.

Oh! I love that song! I didn't realise that was who you were talking about. My SOUL has been PSYCHEDELICISED!!!!

My former housemate used to play that all the time.

Is NH actually a little titchy thing, or are David Walliams and Anthony Michael Head just super enormo-huge?

Walliams is very very tall.

What, a man sadder than me, that he has to actually hire drinking buddies?

x-post he makes NH look like a toy:

NH is small, I saw him in the street once. Shorter than me.

Well at £3.49 from amazon, i shall have the album (plus about 4 psych and folk comps that they recommended at me)

I can't remember if you're taller than me or not.

He's taller than the Queen, but that's not saying much.

Ed, have you planned my birthday walk yet?!?!?

I used to be 5'9", but I've probably shrunk

Well, I'm 5'8" so if you've shrunk, that makes you about the same size as me and NH shorter than me. Teeny, titchy men, I just want to pick them up and put them in my pocket.

HA HA H AHA HA HA HAAHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!

I've just been told by Carruthers that I have no shame.

He's quick..

No, my blog's been down all day, I've only just seen it. I had to go and have a LOL in the loo.

myspace blog?

what is the cruthers laughing about?

Walk at wendover taking in the wendover woods, taking in, if possible the Grim's ditch and iron age fort.

Between Banbury and Biscester didn't have enough pictureques.

The MySpaz blog where I was talking about being chatted up about the S3 bio by the bookshop clerk while trying to hide the NH autobiography.

And he should be calling his former bandmate shameless for posing for photos IN THE NAKEDIDITY!!! rather than calling me shameless for, well, noticing.

yay for Grims Ditch! I just like the name of it. GRIMS DITCH. Woods and iron age forts, too. Picturesques are good! Remind Emsk of it, because she had the day wrong.

I'm glad that says forts

iron age forts

Sorry, for some reason, I can't read this without thinking "iron age farts"

oops xpost!

Trains are 27 and 57 minutes past the hour from Marylebone, taking 47 minutes. Which one are we aiming for?

Forts. What's wrong with forts? It is the plural of fort, isn't it?

x-post eh? I am confused!

Days are long at the moment, so we don't have to hurry. Marylebone is a bugger to get to, though.

Elephant then bakerloo i think is best for you.

almost haiku

Ha ha, that rhymes. Yeah, I think I've done that before, but it's a bugger to change at the Elephant.

(How do you know when you've changed an elephant, etc. fnar.)

What Tom D said
x-posts

And I dread to think what a walk with iron age farts lingering alongside would be like

Iron age fonts would long ago since have dissipated.

ha ha, I mean FARTS. I can't even type today. Carruthers has uploaded new music which I am listening to, and it's distracting me.

It depends on what they ate back then

Iron age fart = one of those beardy blokes who goes on archaeological digs, drinks real ale and listens to folk music

DON'T TALK ABOUT ED THAT WAY!!!

sing that in his voice

Ha ha, we do a cover of one of his songs, actually. (For A Friend)

he's in Show of Hands, right?

is this walk April 13th?

I think the best way for me to get to Wendover is to get a bus to Aylesbury, then a train from Aylesbury to Wendover.

which will take aaaaaaaages. BUT IT WILL BE WORTH IT!!!!

12 APRIL!!! It's a Saturday walk. This is confusing everyone, I know.

Please let me know details as soon as we've decided them, so I can invite people.

Shall we aim to get the 11am train for a noon walk starting time? Or aim earlier?

10:57 then?

Sounds good to me. Where does it go to? i.e. what station? If I need to tell people to meet us by car.

Wendover 11:44
