― Mark C (Mark C), Thursday, 22 May 2003 15:14 (twenty-three years ago)

Mark, on what thread are the details for the 27th being discussed?

― james (james), Thursday, 22 May 2003 15:19 (twenty-three years ago)

On the Melissa Invades London thread. (Argh I have double booked myself for that date I am eeeeevil).

― Sarah (starry), Thursday, 22 May 2003 15:23 (twenty-three years ago)

So have I. Arsebuckets.

― RickyT (RickyT), Thursday, 22 May 2003 15:48 (twenty-three years ago)

*wonders what this "Arsebuckets" is and whether it'd be more fun*

And there were two FAPs last week too! A very poor turnout, I thought.

and no ILXers came out last Friday :(

― stevem (blueski), Thursday, 22 May 2003 18:16 (twenty-three years ago)

I felt bad about that Stevem - I had intended to come. I have moaned enough here about my ex lately, but I got a really nasty, hate-filled letter from her on Friday, and really didn't feel like going out. I felt that not curling up in a ball and crying was about the best I could manage that day.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Thursday, 22 May 2003 19:25 (twenty-three years ago)

Apologies again for the no-show, steve.

― Nordicskillz (Nordicskillz), Thursday, 22 May 2003 21:45 (twenty-three years ago)

Rick I have heard whispers that there may be late doors TM-pinting on Tuesday so that's a possibility.

― Sarah (starry), Friday, 23 May 2003 08:38 (twenty-three years ago)

A lot of the London mob had a prior birthday engagement stevem so turning it into an ILX carnival was not to be.

― Tico Tico (Tico Tico), Friday, 23 May 2003 08:58 (twenty-three years ago)

*cries*

nah its fine really...there have been a lot of birthdays this month anyway. also there would've been nowhere for you guys to sit as we got to the Glasshouse too late and had to wait about an hour or so before getting some half decent seats for about 10 people. it would've been a nightmare if more had turned up in that respect.

― stevem (blueski), Friday, 23 May 2003 09:10 (twenty-three years ago)

j0e and I don't count then, do we?

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Saturday, 24 May 2003 14:33 (twenty-three years ago)

no sir

― stevem (blueski), Saturday, 24 May 2003 18:07 (twenty-three years ago)

WE STILL NEED A TIME AND PLACE FOR MONDAY'S FOOTIE MEET!

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Saturday, 24 May 2003 18:16 (twenty-three years ago)

isn't this off since cozen isn't turning up?

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Saturday, 24 May 2003 18:16 (twenty-three years ago)

No, you better go ahead with it, even if just in case I get my bottle together and jump on a bus tomorrow morning.

― Cozen (Cozen), Saturday, 24 May 2003 18:33 (twenty-three years ago)

Much as Cozen will be missed, one missing person is not significant in terms of a football match. Actually I'd be just as keen to meet some fans to watch the 1st division playoff final, one of the biggest and most exciting games of every season. Or we could do both, play before or after sitting in a pub watching the game.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Saturday, 24 May 2003 19:57 (twenty-three years ago)

I am in negotiations to get a bus tomorrow at 11 (getting into London at 7pm) so if this comes through I will go to the football and FAP, so you better hold the football! I will bring my boots and everything.

― Cozen (Cozen), Saturday, 24 May 2003 20:43 (twenty-three years ago)

Hey, if you need a bed, etc., as before - just get in touch.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Saturday, 24 May 2003 20:59 (twenty-three years ago)

Martin, in case I can't get internet access tomorrow (I have a bed, I think) can you e-mail me a contact no. for you, in case I need to finalise FAP/football details.

― Cozen (Cozen), Saturday, 24 May 2003 21:04 (twenty-three years ago)

I will be at the football. Regent's park? What time? I will not be at the FAP. Martin I might need that bed after all. Will keep you posted, thanks for the offer, if I don't need it.

― Cozen (Cozen), Saturday, 24 May 2003 21:38 (twenty-three years ago)

sorry about that steve, i was pretty hungover that night, i really was up for going too:(

that girl gareth = grebt title for a wacky sit com abt something or other

― mark s (mark s), Saturday, 24 May 2003 21:58 (twenty-three years ago)

I've mailed you, Cozen, at the email addresses I have - I assume the one you post with is a fake, so I hope the ones I had are still good.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Saturday, 24 May 2003 22:22 (twenty-three years ago)

bump up new answers to try to get some sort of plan together!

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Sunday, 25 May 2003 09:49 (twenty-three years ago)

And someone should contact Tom, as I believe he would like to meet Cozen.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Sunday, 25 May 2003 11:21 (twenty-three years ago)

Okay, Mark C and I have agreed on the one pub we could think of by Regent's Park, namely the Green Man opposite Great Portland Street tube. If it's not called the Green Man it's still the large pub opposite said station. We plan to get there about 2.30pm tomorrow, Monday. Cozen is definitely coming, so tell your friends, especially anyone who might fancy kicking a football around.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Sunday, 25 May 2003 14:21 (twenty-three years ago)

Is he coming on Tuesday?

― Marcello Carlin, Sunday, 25 May 2003 14:25 (twenty-three years ago)

No, I don't think he can stay for that. We are still hoping Melissa is there Tuesday, of course.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Sunday, 25 May 2003 15:12 (twenty-three years ago)

opps! I thought the footie was gonna be off, and made other plans. Sorry! :(

― jel -- (jel), Sunday, 25 May 2003 16:37 (twenty-three years ago)

I don't think I can make it any more, sadly, as I have a new flatmate moving in and buggering off for an entire day might be considered bad form. Still up for Tuesday, mind.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Sunday, 25 May 2003 18:02 (twenty-three years ago)

bump as a reminder!

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Monday, 26 May 2003 10:08 (twenty-three years ago)

d'oh, it's a bit late to find out exact details now innit? Sorry, won't make it now.

― chris (chris), Monday, 26 May 2003 10:53 (twenty-three years ago)

haha, i'm pulling out of today's football (assuming there is any now?!) as well due to 'work commitments' - lets do it soon tho i.e. within next 3 weeks

― stevem (blueski), Monday, 26 May 2003 11:03 (twenty-three years ago)

There was football, but on a very small scale. Me, Dave B and his mate Simon, Mark C and Cozen, and after I dropped out due to advanced years and no fitness another young man I didn't know joined in. Still, a good time was had in one pub before and another after, I think, and it was great to meet Cozen.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Monday, 26 May 2003 21:12 (twenty-three years ago)

ah sounds good, sorry i didnt make it - esp. as i was one of those suggesting a kickabout a few weeks back.

― stevem (blueski), Monday, 26 May 2003 21:14 (twenty-three years ago)

What? People on this site have kickabouts together? When is the next time?

― Eyeball Kicks (Eyeball Kicks), Monday, 26 May 2003 21:17 (twenty-three years ago)

I think it's the first time I can remember being the worst player on the pitch. Part of that was down to being old and unfit (I'm a very bad asthmatic, and that hits me very quickly these days), but Simon in particular was a class apart - this man was once on Middlesbrough's books!

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Tuesday, 27 May 2003 10:36 (twenty-three years ago)

He could have been a contender
