Does anyone fancy a pint next Friday Nov 24th. Fractured www.fractured.info are headlining the B&G, onstage sometime after 10pm.http://www.bullandgate.co.uk/

But regardless of whether you feel like some hot rock action, it would be great to meet some ILXers for ale and maybe a game of pool in the B&G or somewhere close by. Anyone up for this?

That's us hot rockin if you click on thee link. It was supposed to come out as a picture, but I didn't do it right, I think.

― Dr. C (Dr. C), Thursday, 16 November 2006 14:58 (nineteen years ago)

I can make this I think. I'm not keen on the B&G as a pub itself though so a FAP within spitting distance would be nice. Maybe the Pineapple?

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Thursday, 16 November 2006 15:02 (nineteen years ago)

Assembly house?

― Ed (dali), Thursday, 16 November 2006 15:03 (nineteen years ago)

It's the Doc!

I think, if I'm free, I'd like to come for a pint and a gig!

There was a FAP nearby once before - masses of people crammed into a tiny room. Can't remember which pub though.

― Dr. C (Dr. C), Thursday, 16 November 2006 15:07 (nineteen years ago)

I think it was the Pineapple? I seem to recall talking to Rob B and Rob B about Star Wars videogames there despite having never ever played any myself!

― Bhumibol Adulyadej (Lucretia My Reflection), Thursday, 16 November 2006 15:15 (nineteen years ago)

That was the Pineapple, which is a bigger pub than that FAP would suggest. I think the first few people sat in a very small corner and everyone else crammed in there afterwards.

I haven't been to the Assembly Rooms.

So that's how to do it.

― Dr. C (Dr. C), Thursday, 16 November 2006 15:33 (nineteen years ago)

New acronym for Fancy A Pint should be LONDON.

― teh_kit (g-kit), Monday, 20 November 2006 14:12 (nineteen years ago)

Is there a Kentish Town anywhere else in the UK? (Even in Kent?)

― Breaking Under The Crush (kate), Monday, 20 November 2006 14:14 (nineteen years ago)

You could probably go to this and still get home before some people who actually live within Zone 6

― 2 american 4 u (blueski), Monday, 20 November 2006 14:16 (nineteen years ago)

It worries me that you know where i live.
FAP + A13 = jail/death

― teh_kit (g-kit), Monday, 20 November 2006 14:17 (nineteen years ago)

Don't you have these amazing things called TRAINS in Essex?

― Breaking Under The Crush (kate), Monday, 20 November 2006 14:20 (nineteen years ago)

someone once tried to organise a FAP that wasn't in london and instead somewhere near kent.

DID ANYONE GO?

― ken c (ken c), Monday, 20 November 2006 14:22 (nineteen years ago)

― ken c (ken c), Monday, 20 November 2006 14:22 (nineteen years ago)

Trains scare me, so I don't like using them. xpost

That's my point, dude.

― teh_kit (g-kit), Monday, 20 November 2006 14:23 (nineteen years ago)

that's a crap point.

― ken c (ken c), Monday, 20 November 2006 14:23 (nineteen years ago)

Can anyone tell me anything about the Assembly House? Is there likely to be room for a FAP?

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Monday, 20 November 2006 14:24 (nineteen years ago)

phone ahead lol

― 2 american 4 u (blueski), Monday, 20 November 2006 14:25 (nineteen years ago)

We've had FAPs in places that weren't london! In fact, you've been to some, Ken!

I've FAPed in Cambridge, Oxford, Brighton, Liverpool, Ramsgate...

Depends whether there's a big gig on at the Forum, it gets pretty rammed between seven and nine if there is. It's a large pub though.

I would pop my head in for this, but my schedule is chock a block this Friday.

Nothing on at the Forum on Fri.

― Dr. C (Dr. C), Monday, 20 November 2006 14:49 (nineteen years ago)

I was one of the "first people" at that Pineapple gathering. It was in the heady days when Jerry the Nipper was a local resident. We did end up kind of boxed in. I can't remember much else about it. As usual, somebody fancied the barmaid. I think she engaged in some kind of friendly banter with us, not knowing that this inevitably leads to being fancied.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller 68), Monday, 20 November 2006 15:03 (nineteen years ago)

Ah! Is that the secret, then? Dispense banter and booze?

― Breaking Under The Crush (kate), Monday, 20 November 2006 15:06 (nineteen years ago)

The Pineapple barmaids have a habit of being quite comely.

Also a low cut bodice/dirndl and a collection of saucy winks and expressions.

― Ed (dali), Monday, 20 November 2006 15:16 (nineteen years ago)

Maybe it's time you revived that thread, Ken.

― teh_kit (g-kit), Monday, 20 November 2006 15:17 (nineteen years ago)

The Pinefox is showing interest. I am interested in this barmaid thing.

― Dr. C (Dr. C), Tuesday, 21 November 2006 16:33 (nineteen years ago)

i might have to learn more puns from shit tv comedies before i revive any more threads kit.

― ken c (ken c), Tuesday, 21 November 2006 16:37 (nineteen years ago)

All gatherings/events in Kentish Town should happen on Tuesdays.

― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 21 November 2006 16:39 (nineteen years ago)

Why?

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Tuesday, 21 November 2006 16:44 (nineteen years ago)

St Et lyric, the only thing I know about Kentish Town.

The review and the rating don't seem to match in any way, shape or form on that one. They quite like it but give it a two pints.

― Ed (dali), Wednesday, 22 November 2006 11:59 (nineteen years ago)

What's the most pints they give?

― Dr. C (Dr. C), Wednesday, 22 November 2006 13:01 (nineteen years ago)

well if you read between the lines it says "this used to be a shit pub, but now they've tidied it up a bit, could be worse".

i *think* there are a small handful of five pinters...

― CarsmileSteve (CarsmileSteve), Wednesday, 22 November 2006 14:40 (nineteen years ago)

It's a bit of a characterless barn, the Assembly Rooms. Very noisy on Friday nights, full of post-work office drinks.

― Jerry the Nipper (Jerrynipper), Wednesday, 22 November 2006 14:45 (nineteen years ago)

The Pineapple is lovely and does have a room out the back that we didn't really venture into last time.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 22 November 2006 14:48 (nineteen years ago)

The George & Dragon in Shoreditch gets a full five pints and that place is a hole.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 22 November 2006 14:49 (nineteen years ago)

Feck! I meant to link to The Pineapple, but for some reason linked to the Assembly Rooms. Anyway :

― Dr. C (Dr. C), Wednesday, 22 November 2006 15:40 (nineteen years ago)

IIRC, some people came in through a secret door at the Pineapple, right at the back.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller 68), Thursday, 23 November 2006 09:10 (nineteen years ago)

Really? I want to do that.

― Dr. C (Dr. C), Thursday, 23 November 2006 09:14 (nineteen years ago)

I don't quite know what Laurel is talking about.

I miss FAPs. I wonder if I will have to miss this one. I hope not, really.

I am not sure how the FAP and the gig relate: are people going to start at one, then go to the other?

Trouble for me is, I am supposed to be elsewhere tomorrow night. But possibly I could forget about that, this time.

― the pinefox (the pinefox), Thursday, 23 November 2006 15:21 (nineteen years ago)

I miss FAPs too.

― 2 american 4 u (blueski), Thursday, 23 November 2006 15:21 (nineteen years ago)

PF - I was hoping to meet some folks for a FAP in the Pineapple. I have not Fapped for too long! Obv I hope some people will make it across to the Bull and Gate for the gig, but I know how it is.

― Dr. C (Dr. C), Thursday, 23 November 2006 15:37 (nineteen years ago)

So, when does this FAP start? Or have I missed that fact upthread?

― the pinefox (the pinefox), Thursday, 23 November 2006 16:48 (nineteen years ago)

I'll be around from 6.30 ish. Is anyone else coming?

― Dr. C (Dr. C), Thursday, 23 November 2006 16:50 (nineteen years ago)

I'd kinda like to, but nah.

― teh_kit (g-kit), Thursday, 23 November 2006 16:51 (nineteen years ago)

2 london 4 u?

― 2 american 4 u (blueski), Thursday, 23 November 2006 16:54 (nineteen years ago)
