Is this a joke?

― N. (nickdastoor), Saturday, 17 January 2004 15:26 (twenty-one years ago)

haha this is not a joke.

― cozen (Cozen), Saturday, 17 January 2004 15:27 (twenty-one years ago)

Everyone will think it's a joke.

― cozen (Cozen), Saturday, 17 January 2004 15:37 (twenty-one years ago)

Is this in the easter holidays? If it is I may travel for it...

― Llahtuos Kcin (Nick Southall), Saturday, 17 January 2004 16:10 (twenty-one years ago)

yup. easter holidays.

― cozen (Cozen), Saturday, 17 January 2004 16:12 (twenty-one years ago)

Barry can me and Cozen sleep on yr floor?

― Llahtuos Kcin (Nick Southall), Saturday, 17 January 2004 16:22 (twenty-one years ago)

wah? it's 10 days before Easter.

― jel -- (jel), Saturday, 17 January 2004 16:29 (twenty-one years ago)

nick - that's quite the sentence.

― cozen (Cozen), Saturday, 17 January 2004 16:33 (twenty-one years ago)

happy birthday!

clearly the pint pot will be the venue for this.

― toby (tsg20), Saturday, 17 January 2004 17:46 (twenty-one years ago)

This is four days before my birthday. I want you all to remember this and buy me drinks at this FAP.

― Anna (Anna), Saturday, 17 January 2004 17:56 (twenty-one years ago)

And happy birthdy Cozen for now. I would buy you drinks, but you're in Scotland.

― Anna (Anna), Saturday, 17 January 2004 17:56 (twenty-one years ago)

i feel bad. it's not my birthday : / teeny this is all your fault!

― cozen (Cozen), Saturday, 17 January 2004 18:25 (twenty-one years ago)

This is four days before my birthday. I want you all to remember this and buy me drinks at this FAP.

this should clearly be on a drinks for songs basis.

― toby (tsg20), Saturday, 17 January 2004 19:44 (twenty-one years ago)

bwahahahahaha.

― teeny (teeny), Saturday, 17 January 2004 20:43 (twenty-one years ago)

It's nine days before my birthday. Do I get bought free drinks for that, too, or do I have to wait? (Dammit, I can't even have a birthday party on mine own birthday cause my boyfriend's opening is that night.)

(Anna, I didn't know you were an Aries, that makes sense!)

― the river fleet, Saturday, 17 January 2004 22:14 (twenty-one years ago)

you have to sing

― Ed (dali), Saturday, 17 January 2004 22:17 (twenty-one years ago)

fleet, where are you?

― Ed (dali), Saturday, 17 January 2004 22:17 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm in Bennington, Ed! My god, it's pretty! I think they filmed Betelgeuse here! Do you want a postcard?

(Buy me enough drinks and I will sing. Regardless of whether there is Karaoke on or not. HAH!)

― the river fleet, Saturday, 17 January 2004 22:19 (twenty-one years ago)

ooh postcards, yay. Is it snowy there?

― Ed (dali), Saturday, 17 January 2004 22:25 (twenty-one years ago)

Actually scrub that. I saw SABC Africa news yesterday and they swoed firement with icicles on there helments in PA, so the question is:

is it nice twee snowy or ice storm dead pensioners snowy?

― Ed (dali), Saturday, 17 January 2004 22:26 (twenty-one years ago)

Is the River Fleet who I think it is or is it someone new? (If the latter, hi there!)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Saturday, 17 January 2004 22:27 (twenty-one years ago)

There's the remains of a three foot blizzard on the ground - which is about a foot left - right now! It's SOOOOO pretty! Very snowy, very cold, but not actually snowing right now. I want to go cross-country skiing at Hillsdene but my mum would rather go snow-shoeing.

X-post, it's icicle twee snowy up here, (because this is the tweest village in Vermont) but I'm sure there are pensioners dead in Maine or something.

Erm, should I start a "FAP Vermont?" thread? ;-)

What, Ned, you won't wave to me unless you think I'm someone other than who I am? ::flounces off::

― the river fleet, Saturday, 17 January 2004 22:30 (twenty-one years ago)

++++BRING POWERBOOKS STOP ROB APPLE STORE STOP++++

― Ed (dali), Saturday, 17 January 2004 22:34 (twenty-one years ago)

Heh heh. I am ordering the Powerbook on Monday. It should be in my hot little hands by the end of the week! (Bar blizzards and the Green Mountain Boys.)

― the river fleet, Saturday, 17 January 2004 22:42 (twenty-one years ago)

What, Ned, you won't wave to me unless you think I'm someone other than who I am? ::flounces off::

All is clear. :-)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Saturday, 17 January 2004 23:59 (twenty-one years ago)

It's 14 days before my birthday, I don't really drink, so don't worry.

― jel -- (jel), Sunday, 18 January 2004 13:03 (twenty-one years ago)

It's barely more than two months before my birthday. Do I get bought... no I suppose that is pushing it.

I'll be up for FAPping I expect.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Sunday, 18 January 2004 20:51 (twenty-one years ago)

It's only six weeks before my birthday: I demand booze!

― Llahtuos Kcin (Nick Southall), Sunday, 18 January 2004 20:56 (twenty-one years ago)

uh it would actually be cool if any ilxer's had some free floor-space / sofa-bed action going.

― cozen (Cozen), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 22:24 (twenty-one years ago)

David, I have a mattress and a sofabed, so you can choose. Anytime, pretty much.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Tuesday, 20 January 2004 22:29 (twenty-one years ago)

one month passes...

bbbbbump.

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 15 March 2004 01:34 (twenty-one years ago)

hmm i am a bit worried about this what with the glasto ticket issue and all - tickets go on sale at 8pm, right? this could be a problem.

― toby (tsg20), Monday, 15 March 2004 07:16 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh gawd. KarokeFAP ruin beckons.

― Liz :x (Liz :x), Monday, 15 March 2004 09:57 (twenty-one years ago)

Aw man, I'm boycotting the P*nt P*t for non-work socials, please no...

― Sarah (starry), Monday, 15 March 2004 10:00 (twenty-one years ago)

Yeah, Glasto ticket buying is going to make this pretty much a non-starter for more than half the London regulars.

― Ricardo (RickyT), Monday, 15 March 2004 10:05 (twenty-one years ago)

Finally, we can weed out the hippies in our midst.

― Jerry the Nipper (Jerrynipper), Monday, 15 March 2004 10:10 (twenty-one years ago)

let's all meet at the Easy Everything, buy our tickets there then go to the pub then

― stevem (blueski), Monday, 15 March 2004 10:15 (twenty-one years ago)

I shall be buying Glasto tickets as well, sorry Cozen. I would go to EasyEverything but I do not expect the sites to be working properly at all, and can see hours of exasperated refreshing ahead.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Monday, 15 March 2004 10:52 (twenty-one years ago)

stupid glastonbury.

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 15 March 2004 11:40 (twenty-one years ago)

(cozen, I think they're just setting up a joke for you, shh)

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 15 March 2004 11:46 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm just looking for something edgy, a little bit hardcore.

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 15 March 2004 12:49 (twenty-one years ago)

we could go to that pub you're all barred from.

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 15 March 2004 19:19 (twenty-one years ago)

I'll be up for a FAP, as I am not going near Glastonbury - oddly enough, the combination of loads of hippies, didgeridoo workshops and the likelihood of accidentally seeing the Stereophonics or Travis or some such doesn't entice me.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 13:26 (twenty-one years ago)

me and martin!

― cozen (Cozen), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 13:58 (twenty-one years ago)

sitting in a tree (being hugged by some Glasto hippies)

My agent friend Susan (gives Texas a good name) and her fiancee are stoked when I tell them there's a Margiela party in a derelict house in Belgrave Square, so we herd some fucking cats and finally ruck up with my friend Steph (one of the fashion editor kidnappers) and Corinne and Mark (nice photographer and her partner). I'm told by a model boy who's been party-stalking me that the gay lawyer I was talking to at Westwood is going out with someone...

suzy is this a deliberate brett easton ellis parody?

― toby (tsg20), Friday, 2 April 2004 09:51 (twenty-one years ago)

The Nipper's camera is magical and makes everyone look much more gorgeous than usual. kudos Sir kudos.

― stevem (blueski), Friday, 2 April 2004 09:52 (twenty-one years ago)

Gee, thanks, Stevem. I guess the only way to make me gorgeous is to make me invisible.

Now I'm even more depressed...

― Super-Kate (kate), Friday, 2 April 2004 09:53 (twenty-one years ago)

invisibility is a beautiful thing, don't knock it. i wish i were invisible, but that's another (pervy) story we haven't got time for.

― stevem (blueski), Friday, 2 April 2004 09:58 (twenty-one years ago)

Toby: yeah yeah, all it's missing is that 'white lines on the coffee table, White Lines on the stereo' moment Ellis is usually kind enough to provide. And of course there's nothing upthread about doing speedballs, either. I don't get to Belgravia that often, usually - the Margiela party vibe was minimalist with drinks in yr. classic white water-cooler cups, olives, and some quite unctuous salami. But the 'house' had been converted into office space and may now be turning back, hence the resemblance to Ed's school.

― suzy (suzy), Friday, 2 April 2004 10:05 (twenty-one years ago)

that sounds fabulous suzy but i doubt it can compare to the utter misery and despair we endured in the Great Glasto Ticket Fiasco

― stevem (blueski), Friday, 2 April 2004 10:09 (twenty-one years ago)

Some of us are still mired in that one...

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Friday, 2 April 2004 10:14 (twenty-one years ago)

That thread is giving me the PHEAR.

I have never been to Glastonbury and it's everything to do with the lunar cycle and nothing to do with a lack of mod cons as I'd be 'working' and therefore have access to a toilet upgrade at the very least. Ed thinks I hate camping, but I don't at all!

― suzy (suzy), Friday, 2 April 2004 10:15 (twenty-one years ago)

The toilets aren't that upgraded backstage Suzy. By night time there's pretty much no difference.

― Anna (Anna), Friday, 2 April 2004 10:20 (twenty-one years ago)

Bleurgh. Though I am not a squeamish indie toilet user, sod's law dictates the only thing for the screams of an angry uterus is some kind of contact with hot water, and also dictates I'm painfully ragging it whenever it happens. Blame the moooooooon.

― suzy (suzy), Friday, 2 April 2004 10:25 (twenty-one years ago)

i wonder if anybody ever brings their own chamberpot to glasto and just empty them in the loos.

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 2 April 2004 10:28 (twenty-one years ago)

Trying to talk sense into the Glasto folks is like shouting down the tide. Honestly.

― Super-Kate (kate), Friday, 2 April 2004 10:29 (twenty-one years ago)

Fun limps on without Kate or Mark C shocker.

― Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Friday, 2 April 2004 10:33 (twenty-one years ago)

Some people's idea of fun is better than other people's idea of fun.

― Super-Kate (kate), Friday, 2 April 2004 10:35 (twenty-one years ago)

exactly

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 2 April 2004 10:36 (twenty-one years ago)

And I, in my infinite superiority, will be at home with a nice clean shower.

― Super-Kate (kate), Friday, 2 April 2004 10:38 (twenty-one years ago)

while the rest of ILX are in a field in somerset dancing around a giant statue of our god FREYA

― Rob Bolton (Rob Bolton), Friday, 2 April 2004 10:41 (twenty-one years ago)

How nice for you.

― Super-Kate (kate), Friday, 2 April 2004 10:41 (twenty-one years ago)

Speak for yourself Rob. The rival Cult Of The Missing S will smash your false idol.

― Tico Tico (Tico Tico), Friday, 2 April 2004 10:42 (twenty-one years ago)

am i insane that i'm now going to both glastonbury AND roskilde, which is the following weekend? at least at roskilde i have a private room at a hostel with a shower and stuff...

― colette (a2lette), Friday, 2 April 2004 10:47 (twenty-one years ago)

a guy at work has just become the latest beneficiary of freya!! another guy is still trying i might let him know of the "no s" as well.

xpost colette is a festival-addict!

― ken c (ken c), Friday, 2 April 2004 10:47 (twenty-one years ago)

can't quite drop as many names as suzy there but i did bump into Jorge from The Salon in the virgin megastore beforehand...

― stevem (blueski), Friday, 2 April 2004 10:49 (twenty-one years ago)

(um, aren't glasto and roskilde usually *the same* weekend?)

― CarsmileSteve (CarsmileSteve), Friday, 2 April 2004 11:04 (twenty-one years ago)

I had a great time, not least due to The Pinefox waxing extraordinarily enthusiastic about a comic I edited many years ago called St Swithin's Day - "one of the key texts of my youth" "I can't overstate its importance to me" "a really beautiful comic" - which delighted me hugely. And of course Anna's new hair, which looks great, and seeing Cozen again, and everyone else too.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Friday, 2 April 2004 11:46 (twenty-one years ago)

Freya is soon getting an unbeliever in me...

― Pete (Pete), Friday, 2 April 2004 11:47 (twenty-one years ago)

Anna's hair is REMARKABLE isn't it?

― Jerry the Nipper (Jerrynipper), Friday, 2 April 2004 11:55 (twenty-one years ago)

roskilde is one weekend later than glastonbury for some reason this year. i want to go!

― lauren (laurenp), Friday, 2 April 2004 13:18 (twenty-one years ago)

Oranges are best for a cold.

― the pinefox, Friday, 2 April 2004 13:57 (twenty-one years ago)

orange juice is best served cold

Isn't it Kumquat?

Either way, they ming

Anna, fab hair!

I look awful in those pictures up there. : /

Blame the jetlag, Coz. (Besides, you don't look any worse than I would after 5 hours of FAP drinkies.)

― Nichole Graham (Nichole Graham), Monday, 5 April 2004 22:29 (twenty-one years ago)

I knew this was a joke.

There are no second acts in Glaswegian lives.

maybe I am just going through the motions, these days.

thanks, gareth! thanks, jtn!

RJG: I'm not even going through them.

I am still.

― the pinefox, Tuesday, 6 April 2004 15:42 (twenty-one years ago)

now, I am still, I realise that gareth isn't being fair.

― RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 6 April 2004 16:35 (twenty-one years ago)

Hey, RJG.

You know how you never reply to my e-mails?

I am not saying that you should - honest, I am not. I am just interested to know: do you actually RECEIVE them?

― the fairfox, Wednesday, 7 April 2004 12:58 (twenty-one years ago)

I do reply : (((((((((((

I will reply, to the last one, before tomorrow.

― RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 7 April 2004 13:02 (twenty-one years ago)

If you receive them, it's OK.

I just thought you might not be, receiving them.
