Be Excellent To Each Other

Ok chaps, any suggestions for pubs to go to? Someone already suggested Ye Olde Trippe toe Jerusaleme (Thee Oldeste Pube in Englande). If it's a nice day it'd be worth going there, as they've got a nice patch of grass you can sit on outside. It's a bit dingy inside, as it's mainly made out of caves.

Also, shall we have a rollcall? It'd be nice to see who's actually coming (or maybe coming).

Me.

I did eggs yesterday, I did not use the method discussed at the pub.

Malc

Probably me. Depends how my brain is.

Also, anywhere without a cunting dress code to go to. I don't have any "smart" clothes being a dingy metullur.

FTFY

Nope, no dress code. I shan't be taking us anywhere very trendy, don't worry.

I'll put you on the maybe list.

The list of people attending will be on the first post shortly.

Why not go to the smallest pub in Britain?

The Thalidomide Arms.








So so so so so sorry

Very good.

Anywhere that chooses who to let in like that won't get my custom. Simple. Also: Any bar that charges for admission.

Anyway: I'll be coming if I'm not dead.

I'm going to put you on the 'Yes' list, because being dead is not a good enough excuse.

I'll be sure to arrange my funeral for "Myoptikas house, 9th August" in the event of death.

Time to go off to amend my will accordingly.

Can I have your Call of Duty 4 Dave?

Bagsy your Eggbox.

I'll probably come, and will request the use of the spare bed that I so expertly slept in last time I was there.

You're sleeping with Dimrill. That is the way it shall be. I hear he gets quite handsy in his sleep.

I am a maybe. Providing that this doesn't turn into "bunch of people who already know each other meet up for a drink".

I don't want to unduly alarm people.. but this is true

I don't think it will. You're very welcome to come.

You can, but you will probably have to share it with someone else.

You'll know me. And I will mercilessly mock you if you get as pissed as you did last time we had an internet meet.

Fixey fixey.

I'd hate to disappoint.

Are you coming, Crasty baby?

Somewhere like Oxford would be more conveniNO NO NOT MY EYES MY BEAUTIFUL EYES!

Er - dunno. It's my 3rd wedding anniversary in 2 weeks, which means I'm about 13 days away from making some decision about whether we should do anything for it. How well through planning mid-August do you think I am?

OK, well let me know when it's 5th August or whatever.

Are there good veggie friendly food things around? Or do I have to do my Golden Child impression?

There used to be a veggie fast-food place called V1, but it closed down a couple of years ago. There's a continental cafe-style place that does an amazing array of veggie food, but I remember it being a mite on the expensive side.

There's also a pub called The Old Angel that did veggie food last time I was there, but it's a bit cliquey there so I don't go often (Jonarob would love it).

Most pubs and sandwich shops do decent vegetarian options.

Chips, innit.

I've spent a lot of my life in the Nottingham though I'm in London at the minute so won't be joining you I'm afraid.

Still I back myoptika and say you should go to the Old Trippe as it is super-mega-old and really damn interesting because of it.

If I don't come on the train (fnarrr) I'll need somewhere to park. Do you have a dropped curb?

Die.

"The" what?

You're all just going to be playing CoD4 in Mypinips lounge aren't you?

In the nudsie.

Cunts.

I'll almost certainly be there, depending on workloads. I'm sure I can spare a weekend though.

Could do with crashing at myp's house too, if space is still available. Unless there's any decent and cheapish B&Bs about - I really don't want to wake up and find bits of Dimrill's beard in my pants.

Can't make that day. Consider yourself lucky.

Yep, still room. To be honest, even if I've run out of conventional sleep space I'm sure there will be room on the floor to crash out on, as long as a few people bring sleeping bags. I've got two double beds, two sofas and I'll buy a couple of £8 camp beds from Tesco for my spare room.

Wow. This looks to be a comfy trip! I've always just slept on the floor like a peasant in the last few innerneh meets I've been to. Bagsy a camp bed!

I'll sleep on Dimrill. I hear he's very soft. And has a built in face pillow.

Sorry, Dave's going to be between my dirty pillows.

I might come just to secretly video you all.

Given what you apparently get up to on Faceparty, I don't think you'll find much that's too shocking at the meet.

Boo

So shall I add you to the list then GJ?

Heh, not *just* yet Myp. I'd love to come but I have a job interview soon (yikes!) and I'm not sure what the hours would be should I get it. I don't want to be too cheeky asking about my working hours as I'm going to need just over two weeks off when I go to the US. Whoops!

I'll let you know next month, feel free to put me down as a maybe.

Can you put me in the "maybe" pile, I don't know what I'm doing in June, let alone August.

And I bloody well will!

I might loiter outside staring through the window looking wistful. I'm not so far from Nottingham so I may be a maybe. I'll have to start speaking more on CoD4 though otherwise I'll be too scared to meet the mighty Dimrill and CUS et all.

It's difficult to yell 'cunt' continuously for an hour in front of the missus though...

Try practicing 'at' her before you do it to us.

Whereabouts are you going there?

@Ian Aris: buy a cat, call it Cunt. Problem solved, dude.

South Carolina and Florda both via Georgia. Can't wait!


*Jiggles*

Two very different states there, I was at a wedding of a friend from Florida... in North Carolina last year but I've been to both before. It's almost possible to even reduce it as far as "Florida = touristy customer facing America", "Carolina = The south that you've heard so much about", although the Carolinas are a considerably more pleasant place than say, Alabama.
