lol yeah Fizzles there wasn't much about London Bridge that I could see from my search.

great, ws gonna revive at the w/end!
When?
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 21 March 2012 19:40 (twelve years ago) link
Next week would be good for me (my last week working in London before becoming a full-time home-counties daycare dad)?
― Stevie T, Thursday, 22 March 2012 10:04 (twelve years ago) link
That's ideal. Not Thursday though.
― Fizzles, Thursday, 22 March 2012 10:40 (twelve years ago) link
Or Wednesday.
― ledge, Thursday, 22 March 2012 10:43 (twelve years ago) link
Monday/Tuesday would be good for me I think: things altogether hairier towards the weekend.
― woof, Thursday, 22 March 2012 11:18 (twelve years ago) link
Like that previous tenant of my building Virginia Woolf, I can do Monday or Tuesday.
― the pinefox, Thursday, 22 March 2012 13:23 (twelve years ago) link
Tuesday?
― Fizzles, Thursday, 22 March 2012 19:15 (twelve years ago) link
good for me.
― xyzzzz__, Thursday, 22 March 2012 19:43 (twelve years ago) link
OK!
― the pinefox, Friday, 23 March 2012 11:13 (twelve years ago) link
btw Royal Oak is hardly an outdoors pub (assuming it's not thunderstorming by Tue pm anyway). does ILB FAP need a special alternative spring / summer venue?
― the pinefox, Friday, 23 March 2012 11:32 (twelve years ago) link
A new era for ILB FAPs may be upon us!

If we want to stay in the area, The George?
― woof, Friday, 23 March 2012 11:43 (twelve years ago) link
Curious, that doesn't show up on FancyAPint's list of pubs with garden. I don't love the george tbh - how about this (which I've never tried): http://fancyapint.com/Pub/2175 ?
― ledge, Friday, 23 March 2012 11:48 (twelve years ago) link
yeah, got my reservations about the george too, but it seemed easy. But we can do better than easy! Ship looks good.
― woof, Friday, 23 March 2012 11:57 (twelve years ago) link
*sniffs suspiciously* I guess that might be ok. Also not a fan of The George.
― Fizzles, Friday, 23 March 2012 12:00 (twelve years ago) link
working round here this week, something about the combo of the area, its pubs and the weather really makes me want to sit and drink and read for a while after I get off. And at lunch.
― woof, Friday, 23 March 2012 12:09 (twelve years ago) link
if the ship is bad we can stroll up to the george. via the lord clyde and the blue eyed maid - ilb crawl!
― ledge, Friday, 23 March 2012 12:13 (twelve years ago) link
BELUSHI'S

Happy to go w/ship.
It'll probably rain anyway :-)
― xyzzzz__, Friday, 23 March 2012 12:16 (twelve years ago) link
Ship is fine, obv. Yes, it'll be freezing.
Agreed, woof - god this weather gives you a thirst. The thought of sunlit daytime pubs brings tears of WANT to my eyes.
― Fizzles, Friday, 23 March 2012 12:35 (twelve years ago) link
Reckon I'll make this at about 8 tomorrow, what with a meeting inconveniently scheduled for 6:30.
― the pinefox, Monday, 26 March 2012 14:20 (twelve years ago) link
will be there uncharacteristically early I suspect, as I'm dodging the toad work in the afternoon.
― Fizzles, Monday, 26 March 2012 17:03 (twelve years ago) link
"Think of being them"
yeah it's great thanks.
― Fizzles, Monday, 26 March 2012 17:04 (twelve years ago) link
As long there is no madness (coming in from Hemel) I'll be there round 6-6.30

spent a happy hour, on friday, reading the spoils of poynton by henry james, in the sunshine, by the duck pond, in queen's park, glasgow.

Anyone want to have a read of Englischer Fussball, the book that Ismael sent me? He said to pass it on, but there haven't been any takers. I'll bring it along just in case.
― Fizzles, Tuesday, 27 March 2012 08:04 (twelve years ago) link
Unfortunately I won't be able to make this after all :(
― Stevie T, Tuesday, 27 March 2012 08:46 (twelve years ago) link
Hiding in the road like a Pasolini toad?
I might pop along as I actually have more of a connection to books these days, besides occasionally getting pished with a load of blokes who read 'em. Depends on how the day goes.

xpost. I had to google it. I haven't knowingly heard Chariot Choogle. I'll listen to it later and let you know. it certainly sounds more appealing than sitting in our head office pretending to work.
just staring out of the window dreaming of drinking and fapping.
― Fizzles, Tuesday, 27 March 2012 10:11 (twelve years ago) link
I can get there for 6 but unbelievably for ILB I don't have a B with me in case I need to pass some time on my own. Might have to hang around with the toad for another half an hour, at least he has the internet.
― ledge, Tuesday, 27 March 2012 10:15 (twelve years ago) link
I am looking forward to this FAPthough it is a pity Stevie won't make it!
― the pinefox, Tuesday, 27 March 2012 10:29 (twelve years ago) link
I can probably get there for six, ledge. Can't provide the variety of the Internet, can stare moodily into pint.
― Fizzles, Tuesday, 27 March 2012 10:52 (twelve years ago) link
xpost yeah seconded - wd've been good to see Stevie before he retires to his happy garden state.
― Fizzles, Tuesday, 27 March 2012 10:57 (twelve years ago) link
will aim for 6 then.
― ledge, Tuesday, 27 March 2012 13:03 (twelve years ago) link
I am heading for the Ship now. Hope you are there!
