London ILB - FAP?

/new_screename_superfluous_post

haha I thought of an ilb screen name the other day but fucked if I can remember it

Something in mid-Feb anyone?

Thursdays aren't quite feasible for me but how about Wednesdays - 11th or 18th?

Sounds good but no doubt the date will be kicked up and down the street like an old football until agreed on.

Not tonight Josephine

No, not tonight - although I am go in for game pie tonight anyway, see what my mood is like for that.

Shall we set a day for this. 18th?

Good for me.

Didn't go in the end.

Doesn't sound like the usual crowd (the other 3-5 of us lol) have time at the min.

Have been under (seemingly unceasing) attack by a succession of colds and viruses since Xmas, so would have to be feeling better by next Wednesday.

I might be able to do the 18th, but, yeah, things have been busier than normal lately.

No worries - lets see how everyone is feeling by Tuesday and make a call then.

Otherwise we can delay till March and beyond.

This on? I can make it early.

Wednesdays are totally out for me (not at work, so not in town) but hope you have an excellent time.

Yeah lets do it. Should be there by 5.30 - 6.

Branwell - we can do it Tue or Thurs next time in Spring.

Staying off the booze :( so I'm out too

I can make it, maybe not that early tho.

I can't. Sorry.

Hmm. I'll have to clear off about seven. Maybe we should postpone?

I know that Tuesday for FAP-ing is a bold move, but if we were to FAP on a Tuesday I might be able to stay out past early doors for once!

(Maybe I would even be able to spot the elusive Pinefox?)

ok looking at more dropouts...lets postpone this one till March then.

We'll see what day we can set this then. Might as well be bold to make up for no winter FAP.

I may stop in for a drink anyway 5-6, but I don't think it'll be worthy of the name fap.

I'll drop in for a pint and pie.

Always have a book for company if no one else tuns up :-)

sketchy ilx presence meant I was totally oblivious to this but wdve been difficult anyway. one in March wd be good.

pf and I can talk about his favourite author tom mccarthy's latest.

Lol

Always up for a bit of fun.

I'll revive early March..

I will revive my rusty Latin and think about picking up Greek to discuss my latest obsession. Cave Branwellem! (That joke is funnier with my government name.)

Thursdays then: 19th or 26th ok for me.

Either is fine

I can do these.

Can't do 19th (seeing Antigone), but 26th ok.

26th it is, see you all then.

Can't do 19th (seeing Antigone), but 26th ok.

bring her along ffs.

This week?

yup i'm around.

I'll be there, dying to meet this Antigone woman, heard so much about her.

Just make sure to stay well clear of her dad.

Buried in it right now - looking at 7pm.

in basingstoke today, will be heading over as soon as I can but i've got a cocking meeting that finishes late. kroney on the train and hit the pub at about half six I hope?

Should be no problem, 6:30 I'll guess. Ants has had some family trouble, something to do with her brothers, might not be able to make it

i'll be there just after i've had some healthy noodles.

Have been keen to attend this. It should be good.
I won't be present, though, because at the last minute I bought a ticket to see THE WHO tonight.

The pinefox sells out

envious of you guys. i have nobody in real life to do good bookchat with.

that was A+ convivial.

Sorry; I went home and fell asleep about 7.30! Maybe the next one...

A quick one while the pinefox is away

Not so buried in it - thanks to all. Actually broke up what was a trick-ish week.

If you ever find yourself in London let us know!

Not sure of the coordinates of Real ILB James but fake James just found a pair of origami crickets on a windowsill at the V&A.
