London ILB - FAP?

ilxor fizzles arrives in one of those big Guinness hats

we should be so lucky for that level of taste

Wins you should come to this btw

xp Oh dear, yes I see why 17th might be unfavourable..

Lol ah ok..

24th it is :-)

Surely Royal Oak, whatever its flaws now, is not a St Patrick's Day kind of pub?

I wonder, on the other hand, what an actual Irish pub (NOT a chain O'Neill's or the like) - for instance McGlynn's near King's Cross - is like that night. I really don't know.

I've never been in McGlynn's on St Patrick's Day but I've been there on plenty of other occasions!

xp the greatest horseplay of all time

McGlynn’s a classic of course but also never been on St Patrick’s day.

Xyzzzz___ seems to have decided the 24th now?

Are we still on for the 24th?

My assumption though ofc this might now not be good for some.

I'll be in Scotland on the 24th anyway.

i haven't expressed a pref bcz these days i don't really know till the day how tired i will be on the relevant evening (i am old and on beta blockers)

but i wd like to see everyone and all dates are fine with me!

oh *this* is why the 24th has been in my head. it’s the afternoon of our work christmas party, and i kept on thinking “but isn’t there a clash?” and looking at my work and home diary and not finding anything.

read this as "woke christmas party" tbrr

17th is good for me btw. Can we all agree to switch?

Er, I'll be in Paris on the 17th!

Ah ok then :)

they seek him here they seek him there

It’s alright Tom, hint fully taken. ❤️‍🩹

Still good for Thursday? I still am..

I need to test today and tomorrow but would like to come if I’m not contagious! I miss you all!

Having a tooth pulled earlier that day :/

Gl with tooth Daniel, am still positive today so not going to come. Next month hopefully.

I'm unexpectedly out of town this week for family reasons so can't be about, I'm very sorry to say.

I'm also positive today (day 8, LFT line getting thinner finally!) but would like to try next time.

Sounds like a good reason to start planning the April FAP date to me, Chuck.

Ok let's cancel this and go for April sometime. It will be good to meet, Chuck.

April when?

A Thursday where most are about. All of those are good for me.

Out of the country between the 7th and 14th, so after that would be great #noworriesifnot

Up for the 21st or 28th.

out of the country for both of those. i will hold my own book fap. with me. a “by-myself meeting” as ghostface killah says.

Here’s a controversial thought: let’s have it on a different day.

always with the solutions.

How is Thurs 5th May?

Far away! But far away enough I have no plans, so fine for me.

Still on for the 5th?

I can do this

Yeah, I'm in.

Is this still on? Where?

This Thursday at the Royal Oak.

I'm 75% sure I'll make it but won't be there until a little later than usual.

Would be good to see you :)

Which Royal Oak, what time? Probably can't make this Thursday as my partner's working late and I have to do nursery pickup that day. But I'll try if I can!

I'm unlikely to be there, health does not permit.

Sorry to hear this Tom, get well soon
