Ok so I was confused by Conrad but now that I think I e figured out who that is I am sad you missed the party too.

Wait I think I am wrong in thinking I knew who it was but will assume I am still sad because I like to think most ppl are ok despite what lived experience has shown me.

Good to hear it went well. I am 15 years out of sync and currently enjoying a quick drink at the former mid 2000s FAP venue the Pineapple in Kentish Town. (Looked out for the ghosts of Dr C and A N Other as I went past the Bull and Gate earlier)
― Luna Schlosser, Sunday, 4 August 2019 19:20 (four years ago) link
I went to Berlin the next day so just reviving now to say Herne Hill FAP would be a good idea (to this resident of the area).
I'll revive this late August and see if people are up for that.

Autumnal FAP? Where is HH? Could do it there I suppose.
― Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Monday, 23 September 2019 09:01 (four years ago) link
alphie's lair! we'll all wake up the next morning chained to a godard boxset
― imago, Monday, 23 September 2019 09:08 (four years ago) link
Yes even I could make it to Herne Hill.
― the pinefox, Monday, 23 September 2019 09:10 (four years ago) link
There are worse things. Being chained to a Ken Loach boxset, for instance.

― pomenitul, Monday, 23 September 2019 09:10 (four years ago) link
I don't think I've ever visited the People's Republic of Herne Hill tbh.

PRHH has an excellent West Indian take away right by the station, so post-drink fuel needs are v well catered for.
― coup de twat (suzy), Monday, 23 September 2019 09:19 (four years ago) link
Half-moon or Commercial for options. There are a couple more but those are best.
ENBB - HH station is 10 mins by train from Victoria or 15 min walk from Brixton tube. The pubs are by HH station.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 23 September 2019 10:51 (four years ago) link
Man alive, I loved the Commercial in the mid/late 80s, so much so I have trouble drinking in there these days (not so much trouble that I refuse to drink in there, just enough that I go on endlessly about how much I liked it in the old days.
― Tim, Monday, 23 September 2019 11:03 (four years ago) link
When do you all want to do this. I can do mid-next week. More flexible after that
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 25 September 2019 09:07 (four years ago) link
I will do this if possible. ENBB, are you going to bring PWB?
― the pinefox, Wednesday, 25 September 2019 10:30 (four years ago) link
I could make a crafty mid-next-week, after which I'm out of action until late October (don't let that stop you).
― Tim, Wednesday, 25 September 2019 10:33 (four years ago) link
Next week weds or Thurs sounds good
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 25 September 2019 10:57 (four years ago) link
Sadly not for me, especially not Wed 2nd. I might possibly be able to do Thu 3rd, but probably shouldn't due to work.
― the pinefox, Wednesday, 25 September 2019 11:00 (four years ago) link
I might be able to come on the 3rd
― Colonel Poo, Wednesday, 25 September 2019 11:03 (four years ago) link
Ok let's tentatively go for Thurs.
Any other HH, South London locals?
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 25 September 2019 11:27 (four years ago) link
Me! Can't do any nights next week unfortunately

"If every time I lost a case I was called on to resign I would probably have never had a practice," says Geoffrey Cox.

― nashwan, Wednesday, 25 September 2019 11:37 (four years ago) link
oops ha ha
probably in for this tho, WHENEVER
― nashwan, Wednesday, 25 September 2019 11:38 (four years ago) link
Cool let's see where we're at. We could delay till end of month.
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 25 September 2019 11:40 (four years ago) link
The soon to be sacked Geoffrey Cox also welcome.
Drinks are on him, though - literally or not left to individual taste.
(I could also make this!)
― Andrew Farrell, Wednesday, 25 September 2019 11:53 (four years ago) link
i think i can make this (effortfully walls five metres down road) tho like stet next week not amazing.
― Fizzles, Wednesday, 25 September 2019 19:49 (four years ago) link
thread is lacking plax imo.
― Fizzles, Wednesday, 25 September 2019 19:53 (four years ago) link
be good to see Andrew F who i conversed with for about two minutes at the last FAP where both of us were present. the rest of you i can take or leave obv.
― Fizzles, Wednesday, 25 September 2019 19:54 (four years ago) link
Next Thursday would work. Since it sounds like some can’t make it we could do another towards the end of the month/start of Nov?
― Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Thursday, 26 September 2019 09:34 (four years ago) link
Sounds good.
― xyzzzz__, Thursday, 26 September 2019 09:46 (four years ago) link
Let's go for the commercial
I agree with Fizzles.
― Andrew Farrell, Thursday, 26 September 2019 10:10 (four years ago) link
So are we doing this thing then?
― Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Wednesday, 2 October 2019 09:02 (four years ago) link
I am planning to be there (though the chances are I won't make it until about 7.30).
― Tim, Wednesday, 2 October 2019 09:05 (four years ago) link
Fuck, I'm not sure about this one, plus it's tomorrow!
― Let them eat Pfifferlinge an Schneckensauce (Tom D.), Wednesday, 2 October 2019 09:13 (four years ago) link
I will swing by, but probably not for long.
― Michael Jones, Wednesday, 2 October 2019 09:15 (four years ago) link
Will be there by six-ish I reckon.
See you then!
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 2 October 2019 10:02 (four years ago) link
Fizzles? Farrell? Poo?
― Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Wednesday, 2 October 2019 14:55 (four years ago) link
No worries if this experiment in non-central drinking yields low numbers or you all want to do something at the end of the month I'll be at the commercial reading over a drink anyway.
― xyzzzz__, Thursday, 3 October 2019 08:24 (four years ago) link
I hope to attend.
― the pinefox, Thursday, 3 October 2019 08:29 (four years ago) link
All being well I'll have a finished copy of the book I've been working on for a couple of years - I did the final print run last night.
― Tim, Thursday, 3 October 2019 08:41 (four years ago) link
Ooh that’s exciting. PF I was just coming to check if you were.
― Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Thursday, 3 October 2019 08:43 (four years ago) link
I'm going to have to play this one by ear I think. Might see you later. Will be there at 7ish if I am coming
― Colonel Poo, Thursday, 3 October 2019 09:43 (four years ago) link
Aw hope you do.
― Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Thursday, 3 October 2019 09:51 (four years ago) link
Will prob get there around 6:15
― Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Thursday, 3 October 2019 15:50 (four years ago) link
Cool
― xyzzzz__, Thursday, 3 October 2019 16:13 (four years ago) link
Or 6:50 because the trains fucking suck.
