i am am def intending to hook up w.duane and (i think) his friend roddy this afternoon (3-ish, 4-ish maybe more likely)

he is currently at tate mod and will call me later

anyone else free and has suggestions to meet up (it needn't be a pub at first as we can move on towards one)? (or if you want to suggest a pub to aim for at work-end time we cd calibrate our assignation thusly)

(i'm in hackney so somewhere vaguely central is probbly easiest)

erm bump?

― mark s (mark s), Thursday, 23 October 2003 11:51 (twenty-two years ago)

sounds like a Hanson song

don't think i can make tonight sadly

― stevem (blueski), Thursday, 23 October 2003 12:08 (twenty-two years ago)

I might be able to make it tonight but am at work this afternoon.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Thursday, 23 October 2003 12:16 (twenty-two years ago)

I'll try and make it but I'll prob still be living in New Zealand

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Thursday, 23 October 2003 12:50 (twenty-two years ago)

yes that is less central than i had in mind actually

― mark s (mark s), Thursday, 23 October 2003 12:51 (twenty-two years ago)

mark: can't think of any location/pub.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Thursday, 23 October 2003 12:53 (twenty-two years ago)

If it's a select group we could make it the Angel on St Giles High St. That's pretty central by the insane Ewingian / Skidmorian defn (i.e. its very near Centrepoint).

― Tim (Tim), Thursday, 23 October 2003 13:20 (twenty-two years ago)

I might be able to have one early doors (and I mean it this time)!!

― Sarah (starry), Thursday, 23 October 2003 13:23 (twenty-two years ago)

oh well, maybe just the one. i may go and get my hair cut first though and my mobile's almost out of battery, so i'll just toddle along to the angle and, if no one else is there, bugger off (possibly having a pint first just in case).

― CarsmileSteve (CarsmileSteve), Thursday, 23 October 2003 13:35 (twenty-two years ago)

yes it looks select so far, so angel it is: maybe i'll meet duane (and roddy?) somewhere slightly easier to direct to over the phone possibly then ferry them there perhaps

― mark s (mark s), Thursday, 23 October 2003 13:36 (twenty-two years ago)

Yes please. Never has the Angel brought me anything but good times. Plus I can't miss Duane for a third time.

― Tico Tico (Tico Tico), Thursday, 23 October 2003 13:38 (twenty-two years ago)

ok i am just now setting off to meet duane at the virgin megastore front entrance in oxford street c.4.30-ish (so if anyone wishes to keep me company there that will be nice for ~~you~~ me )

he has my mobile number so NOTHING CAN GO WRONG!!)

― mark s (mark s), Thursday, 23 October 2003 13:42 (twenty-two years ago)

can someone pull one of those fancy a pint things...or at leats name the nearest tube plz.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Thursday, 23 October 2003 13:44 (twenty-two years ago)

tottenham ct rd julio

sod i forgot to tell duane to look at this thread if he got lost

― mark s (mark s), Thursday, 23 October 2003 13:45 (twenty-two years ago)

When will ppl be getting to the pub - I still have more stuff to do at work sadly.

julio you're the laziest man I've ever met

― Tim (Tim), Thursday, 23 October 2003 13:46 (twenty-two years ago)

thanks.

x-post: not sure yet. work too.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Thursday, 23 October 2003 13:46 (twenty-two years ago)

I'll be there at some time like 6.30 or perhaps 7 because I want to go and look at records in shops first.

― Tim (Tim), Thursday, 23 October 2003 13:47 (twenty-two years ago)

Is anyone going to be rocking up early? I am supposed to be going for slapup steak meal but as nothing is organised I am assuming it won't be til 7 so I can fit one in before then YER SEE. If not I'll turn up and have a beer there anyway.

I will not go to Faith. I will not look at shoes. I will certainly not buy any.

SOB.

― Sarah (starry), Thursday, 23 October 2003 13:51 (twenty-two years ago)

I will aim for 6.30 also.

― Tico Tico (Tico Tico), Thursday, 23 October 2003 13:53 (twenty-two years ago)

I will go there straight from work, leaving here at 5 - is that when you finish, Sarah?

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Thursday, 23 October 2003 13:59 (twenty-two years ago)

i see enough of those bums (i.e. duane and roddy) already. all they do is mess up my house.

― cameron, Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:16 (twenty-two years ago)

I have to wander off at about 8.00 but can probably slip a few in before then.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Thursday, 23 October 2003 14:24 (twenty-two years ago)

I don't know about making it, but if I did go out tonight, I would go here:

It's Simon from Popworld after all.

― Barima (Barima), Thursday, 23 October 2003 15:33 (twenty-two years ago)

Matt and Barima sadly did not show! A good time was had nonetheless, but it did all fade out quite early - not just me this time.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Thursday, 23 October 2003 20:45 (twenty-two years ago)

haha every time it wz about to end new ppl arrived!! (viz andrew l, then toby revenant w.anna)

― mark s (mark s), Thursday, 23 October 2003 21:24 (twenty-two years ago)

maybe matt and barima turned up after you left martin.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Thursday, 23 October 2003 21:48 (twenty-two years ago)

hi duane, forgive me if this is dumb question, but were you in Say Yes to Apes?

― tokyo rosemary (rosemary), Thursday, 23 October 2003 22:07 (twenty-two years ago)

Hey it was v. 'choice' drinking w/ Duane and Mark, I just can't believe the rest of the hard-drinkin' hard-livin' London ILXers left so early! Yr reputations are in tatters!

― Andrew L (Andrew L), Friday, 24 October 2003 07:50 (twenty-two years ago)

i want to take this opportunity to say here and now that i HEART say yes to apes.

― The Lady Ms Lurex (lucylurex), Friday, 24 October 2003 07:53 (twenty-two years ago)

I turned up at 10.30 after the gig kicked out, and no one was there!

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Friday, 24 October 2003 08:10 (twenty-two years ago)

I left early to go for STEAK - you will be pleased to know it was practically raw'n'wriggling on the plate - mmmmmm tasty preciouss....

― Sarah (starry), Friday, 24 October 2003 08:14 (twenty-two years ago)

I hope Duane goes back to NZ and eats nothing but huge yorkshire puddings with gravy!!!

― Sarah (starry), Friday, 24 October 2003 08:15 (twenty-two years ago)

yeah we turned up at 10:30 for a sly drink or two on our way home and found andrew l, mark s and duane about to leave! the rest of you have some serious explaining to do.

― toby (tsg20), Friday, 24 October 2003 08:25 (twenty-two years ago)

on behalf of duane, yes, he was in say yes to apes. he is still messing up my house too. also, i wish i had had steak last night, instead of greasy kebab and cider.

― cameron, Friday, 24 October 2003 08:29 (twenty-two years ago)

Serious explaining, i had films to see. Any, Mr Hard Stay Out All Night, you faded away early on Wednesday.

I fear the month of ruin has made us shadows of our former selves.

― Pete (Pete), Friday, 24 October 2003 08:43 (twenty-two years ago)

I went home for dinner and pretty much fell asleep. I'd spent most of the evening after work trying to look for a birthday present for my dad but lucked out. I heard Si Popworld is supposed to be prety funny as a stand-up, so disappointments all round. Sorry, people.

― Barima (Barima), Friday, 24 October 2003 08:50 (twenty-two years ago)

I was at a work do, featuring some awful popstars reject singing while we ate curry.

― chris (chris), Friday, 24 October 2003 09:13 (twenty-two years ago)

well I had already done some hard oranje jiuce drinking the prev day but i thought I'd drop in for a bit since the angel wasn't that far off from where I'm at.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Friday, 24 October 2003 09:36 (twenty-two years ago)

Any, Mr Hard Stay Out All Night, you faded away early on Wednesday.

but not until 10pm! and it was quite clear that i wasn't going to be causing everyone to leave, meaning that latecomers found an empty pub. sniff.

― toby (tsg20), Friday, 24 October 2003 11:07 (twenty-two years ago)

But you weren't alone...

― Pete (Pete), Friday, 24 October 2003 11:14 (twenty-two years ago)

duane and i may go see tav falco play at the boston arms tonight, if anyone's interested.

― cameron, Friday, 24 October 2003 11:59 (twenty-two years ago)

yeah it's my last night in the country, come on! i only just found this thread, it's friday evening.

― duane, Friday, 24 October 2003 14:35 (twenty-two years ago)
