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

Still good for Thursday? I still am..
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 21 March 2022 08:54 (two years ago) link
I need to test today and tomorrow but would like to come if I’m not contagious! I miss you all!
― mardheamac (gyac), Monday, 21 March 2022 09:01 (two years ago) link
Having a tooth pulled earlier that day :/
― Daniel_Rf, Monday, 21 March 2022 09:43 (two years ago) link
Gl with tooth Daniel, am still positive today so not going to come. Next month hopefully.
― mardheamac (gyac), Monday, 21 March 2022 10:19 (two years ago) link
I'm unexpectedly out of town this week for family reasons so can't be about, I'm very sorry to say.
― Tim, Monday, 21 March 2022 10:25 (two years ago) link
I'm also positive today (day 8, LFT line getting thinner finally!) but would like to try next time.
― Chuck_Tatum, Monday, 21 March 2022 10:27 (two years ago) link
Sounds like a good reason to start planning the April FAP date to me, Chuck.
― mardheamac (gyac), Monday, 21 March 2022 10:28 (two years ago) link
Ok let's cancel this and go for April sometime. It will be good to meet, Chuck.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 21 March 2022 10:30 (two years ago) link
April when?
― mardheamac (gyac), Monday, 21 March 2022 10:30 (two years ago) link
A Thursday where most are about. All of those are good for me.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 21 March 2022 10:33 (two years ago) link
Out of the country between the 7th and 14th, so after that would be great #noworriesifnot
― Daniel_Rf, Monday, 21 March 2022 11:36 (two years ago) link
Up for the 21st or 28th.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 21 March 2022 12:30 (two years ago) link
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.
― Fizzles, Tuesday, 22 March 2022 18:21 (two years ago) link
Here’s a controversial thought: let’s have it on a different day.
― mardheamac (gyac), Tuesday, 22 March 2022 18:27 (two years ago) link
always with the solutions.
― Fizzles, Tuesday, 22 March 2022 18:31 (two years ago) link
How is Thurs 5th May?
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 23 March 2022 10:43 (two years ago) link
Far away! But far away enough I have no plans, so fine for me.
― mardheamac (gyac), Wednesday, 23 March 2022 10:58 (two years ago) link
Still on for the 5th?
― xyzzzz__, Thursday, 21 April 2022 13:58 (two years ago) link
I can do this
― gyac, Tuesday, 26 April 2022 10:05 (two years ago) link
Yeah, I'm in.
― Daniel_Rf, Tuesday, 26 April 2022 10:25 (two years ago) link
Is this still on? Where?
― gyac, Monday, 2 May 2022 09:50 (two years ago) link
This Thursday at the Royal Oak.
― xyzzzz__, Tuesday, 3 May 2022 10:02 (two years ago) link
I'm 75% sure I'll make it but won't be there until a little later than usual.
― Tim, Tuesday, 3 May 2022 11:20 (two years ago) link
Would be good to see you :)
― gyac, Tuesday, 3 May 2022 11:25 (two years ago) link
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!
― Chuck_Tatum, Tuesday, 3 May 2022 11:44 (two years ago) link
I'm unlikely to be there, health does not permit.

Sorry to hear this Tom, get well soon
― gyac, Tuesday, 3 May 2022 11:54 (two years ago) link
Chuck - Royal Oak in Tabard street, near Borough
― xyzzzz__, Tuesday, 3 May 2022 12:52 (two years ago) link
Obv no worries we will do another FAP late summer. Do shout about dates that are good for you when it's being organised too.
Tom D - get well soon.
― xyzzzz__, Tuesday, 3 May 2022 12:53 (two years ago) link
How do you find each other and do you only allow certain people in? Do you have to wear a badge? (These are hypothetical questions.)
― youn, Tuesday, 3 May 2022 18:05 (two years ago) link
I think most of the people who go to ilb faps are the same crowd who know each other? The last one I went to I knew about half the people going so I just showed up and hoped that one of the people I knew would turn up. Then others came and then we all froze to death.
― gyac, Tuesday, 3 May 2022 18:18 (two years ago) link
All ilx people allowed (non-ilx allowed too but they might not be able to follow some of the conversation, or even get to it, how would they know of it).
If a new ilx person who has never been to one of these turns up we can have a book on the table.
― xyzzzz__, Tuesday, 3 May 2022 19:23 (two years ago) link
In or outside btw?
― Chuck_Tatum, Tuesday, 3 May 2022 19:31 (two years ago) link
Royal Oak is an inside pub.
― xyzzzz__, Tuesday, 3 May 2022 19:40 (two years ago) link
Have you ever had a FAP in one of your wonderful parks and how late in summer would such an event be seasonable?
― youn, Tuesday, 3 May 2022 19:44 (two years ago) link
Do they serve beer in parks?
― Was Hitler a Hobbit? (Tom D.), Tuesday, 3 May 2022 19:50 (two years ago) link
We could get cans, but these FAPs have always been in pubs.
Youn if you come maybe we could put this radical ideas into action. Are you in London sometime this summer?
― xyzzzz__, Tuesday, 3 May 2022 19:53 (two years ago) link
The questions were hypothetical. If the hypothesis were to be tested, it would be in September.
― youn, Tuesday, 3 May 2022 19:58 (two years ago) link
It’d be excellent to see you, Youn - goodness knows how long it’s been. I might even be tempted out of the ale house and into some park.
― Tim, Tuesday, 3 May 2022 20:01 (two years ago) link
I'm just gonna ask, since I can't puzzle it out: what does FAP stand for?
― immodesty blaise (jimbeaux), Tuesday, 3 May 2022 20:02 (two years ago) link
Fancy a pint
― gyac, Tuesday, 3 May 2022 20:03 (two years ago) link
Ah, thanks. Given the context, I figured "pint" was in there.
― immodesty blaise (jimbeaux), Tuesday, 3 May 2022 20:03 (two years ago) link
FAC in the Park
― Was Hitler a Hobbit? (Tom D.), Tuesday, 3 May 2022 20:04 (two years ago) link
The other problem with parks is you have to sit on the ground.
xpost - that's where I gather all the old action happened ...
I still remember the glasses and the half pint glasses.
cup?
wear jeans or white trousers worthy of grass stains?
― youn, Tuesday, 3 May 2022 20:06 (two years ago) link
The other problem with parks is you have to sit on the _ground._
