London ILB - FAP?

I'm away till Friday.

That should not have posted twice (twice).

Might Thur 29th be a good day for this? Would be nice if anyone is about.

Could potentially do monday 26th, too. Confirm in a week.

Yep, I'm up for this. Either date, but I'd probably prefer the Thursday.

Noted. Royal Oak again, wdn't have it anywhere else by this point :-)

Think woof was keen on the FAP as well, but I think he's away for a couple of weeks. Not that it need affect anything of course, but he did say it wld be good to have one. Good to see Stevie drumming up custom on the london thread as well!

yes, i will not be able to make it, but there in spirit, complaining about James Wood, Michael Wood, etc.

Will mutely thump the table shd their names be mentioned.

George Wood?

Ron Wood?

Roy Wood?

Royal Oak? Ou est le Royal Oak.

Actually Thursdays are out, but still.

Borough. Down a back street - Tabard Street I think. V nice pub.

We haven't actually named a date for this, have we?

no.

er, 'Thur 29th'.

woof/PJ Miller - would the next Thursday be better for this? Alternatively, can come along on Tue/Wed this week (in fact wd be able to stay a bit longer if that were the case - probbly need to be off by 9.30 this Thur). Not sure if Gamaliel or PF would be able to make that.

That Tuesday might be difficult but other than that I'm easy.

Wednesday is cool w/me.

let's make it one night this coming week. I can do most of them, at the moment.

Wednesday's fine by me.

Wed 28th then!

Best not to count on me at the moment (not at my best), but Thursdays are always out.

Just recovered from fluey roughness - see you tomorrow, round 6.30-7.

I'll leave a book at the table in case anyone else wants to come along and doesn't know anyone here - Female Man by Joanna Russ.

Enjoy! Sad I cannot be there.

(Wood ranking:

Roy>Victoria>Ron>Michael=James>Elijah.

I don't know about George.)

any ETAs anyone?

had to work late, puncture, just missed a train, half seven? Still, at least I've got Ada to read.

I have heard that Ada can improve just about any situation.

I have been very busy but am planning to head out now - so hang on there?

we'll hold the fort.

we did the FAP.

I enjoyed the FAP.

Did you come to any conclusions?

That you were missed :-)

Especially when we touched on M.Wood's article on the Wake.

Fizzles, re Stevenson at the Edinburgh Writers' Museum - a free gem:

a few coments about it on that page.

Thanks pinefox! I'm going to try and get there before the end of the year. Sedulous = 1.assiduous or diligent 2. painstaking

ORIGIN L sedulus from se dolo without deception, hence in earnest.

Is actually an essay by RLS, didn't know that, makes more sense for Wyndham Lewis to have called him that now.

How about a drink next Thurs at the...Royal Oak :-)

(Jan 19th)

sounds… plausible.

also, ilb awaits return of the pinefox

Suspect he may have got slightly lost en route to the sandbox and possibly given up ilx for dead, or at least semi-vegetative state, to be checked in a couple of years maybe.

Oh yeah, drink. Drink is good. Any day of the week. That day? Yes! That day!

he'll be back I'm sure, have a vague recollection of wanting to do this pre-xmas before ilx went into a coma.

See you next thurs.

astonished to find ILX exists

hope to see some of you tomorrow. be about from 5.30-6pm

apologies to the pinefox for assuming he mightn't have the nose to truffle out a book FAP. Folly on my part. I'll be there with a copy of Walter de la Mare's Collected Perms. Probably from about quarter to seven, not later, possibly dependent on what time a colleague from work whose company I'm rather keen on gets her train. We talk books. It's preparation!

so this is tonight ???

Yes!

I'd have been there regardless tbh. Since xyzzz__ mentioned it last week had game pie on my mind.

Will prob be there about 6.30-7. V conveniently timed this fap, need to do some Dickens street-tramping research round that end of se1 anyway.

feel like i should show my face, i hope they're doing their famous suet pudding.

Be great to see you ledge.

Fizzles: this is the sound of Stevie (vocals) and me (lead guitar) playing a gig years ago.
