― dahlin (dahlin), Thursday, 9 June 2005 10:47 (eighteen years ago) link

the bus depot? south side? pah, that's the south side for pussies. it's eglinton toll! you can *see* the river from eglinton toll.

if you're, umm, very, very tall. or in a plane.

the real south side starts at battlefield, yo.

anyway. while you're at the bus depot, can you call them a bunch of total and utter cunts for scraping my car with their no 44? thanks.

RJG looks odd, in that picture.

I don't think he's seen it yet - he was puzzled by my txt.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 9 June 2005 11:59 (eighteen years ago) link

Hello Glasgow. I can't afford to visit you. I am sad about this.

― Alix with an i ? (alix), Thursday, 9 June 2005 12:00 (eighteen years ago) link

Aw Lixi, even with free board and lodging?

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 9 June 2005 13:05 (eighteen years ago) link

RJG looks odd, in that picture.

If he had his tie done up tight he would look like one of the Krays.

I have been listening to 'Showbiz Kids', the Steely Dan compilation, over the last few days & thinking of RJG.

Mädchen, did you know that there is a Haribo museum in France? see

― Mooro (Mooro), Thursday, 9 June 2005 15:07 (eighteen years ago) link

I do love the RJG photo there.

Stacey, you are the greatest human being ever to walk the earth. I just about wet myself with laughter when I picked up the Metro at work. Thank you!

I considered a response, but couldn't quite find the right words. Has anyone else taken up the gauntlet?

― ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 9 June 2005 15:44 (eighteen years ago) link

Have a good holiday, Nick? Hope you are well and will see you soon. You should come through tomorrow evening for Neil's club thing (and pop quiz!) if you've nothing else to do.

― KeefW (kmw), Friday, 10 June 2005 21:58 (eighteen years ago) link

Crackign hols. Can't make it to Edinburgh tomorrow as it's the Winchester and I'm a guest DJ. Genuinely excellent band Foxface are playing too - should be good.

― Alba (Alba), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:05 (eighteen years ago) link

Haha! "Genuinely" excellent band.

No bother. Actually, pity I miss your guest DJing. I hope you will play "Ride the Tiger" by Jefferson Starship.

― KeefW (kmw), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:08 (eighteen years ago) link

THEY ARE "GENUINELY" EXCELLENT

― Alba (Alba), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:33 (eighteen years ago) link

(Jefferson Starship that is - Foxface are really a load of old rope)

― Alba (Alba), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:34 (eighteen years ago) link

Haha. I never thought a lot of Jefferson anything or Starship either until Mourinho gave me "Dragonfly", by Jefferson Starship. It's terrific, and I've listened to all the other 70s Jefferson Starship records and great they are too. I'm currently getting my friend into them.

― KeefW (kmw), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:37 (eighteen years ago) link

Though, I did like "Jane". But then, who could blame me?

― KeefW (kmw), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:37 (eighteen years ago) link

anyone (smog)ing?

― jed_ (jed), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:39 (eighteen years ago) link

I don't know what you mean.... I'm currently Billy Ocean-ing.

― KeefW (kmw), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:39 (eighteen years ago) link

when the going gets tough...

― jed_ (jed), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:42 (eighteen years ago) link

Red light spells danger...

― KeefW (kmw), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:45 (eighteen years ago) link

what was the name of the postman that got to number one?

― jed_ (jed), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:47 (eighteen years ago) link

No idea... Did a postman get to number 1?

― KeefW (kmw), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:47 (eighteen years ago) link

I'm sorting out what I'm playing tomorrow.

Possibly starting with new wave stuff. Are we all bored with new wave stuff now? I will smell the crowd and see. I hope there is a crowd.

― Alba (Alba), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:48 (eighteen years ago) link

Annoyingly I think I am bored with New Wave stuff. I was a huge fan when I was 17. Still, if you did "Diamond Smiles", which might go with the G8 thing I would like it. That said, I won't be there! So just do what you like!

― KeefW (kmw), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:49 (eighteen years ago) link

Though I'm impressed by Mr.Stirmonster's recent Mr.Research advocacy.

― KeefW (kmw), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:50 (eighteen years ago) link

it was boris gardiner "i wanna wake up with you"

― jed_ (jed), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:51 (eighteen years ago) link

play that Nick!

― jed_ (jed), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:51 (eighteen years ago) link

Was he a postman?

― KeefW (kmw), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:52 (eighteen years ago) link

he was!

― jed_ (jed), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:52 (eighteen years ago) link

Oh yeah - I remember now. He was indeed! I'm not playing him though. I might play the Belle Stars.

― Alba (Alba), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:53 (eighteen years ago) link

I used to work with the drummer from the Belle Stars!

― KeefW (kmw), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:53 (eighteen years ago) link

Tell him to come along!

― Alba (Alba), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:54 (eighteen years ago) link

We used to drag her (Judy Hancock nee Parsons) along to the 80s club that Sim0m St3rt used to love and get them to play "sign of the times".

― KeefW (kmw), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:55 (eighteen years ago) link

The only things I'm certain I'm of playing are the Gipsy Kings and Björk.

― Alba (Alba), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:56 (eighteen years ago) link

Good calls. I love DJing. The last time I DJd, I played "Paperlate" by Genesis, twice.

― KeefW (kmw), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:57 (eighteen years ago) link

You can't argue with that. Or perhaps you can. Did anyone argue with you? I forgot that I'm definitely playing Kid Creole & The Coconuts as well.

― Alba (Alba), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:58 (eighteen years ago) link

And Kelis. I think I have too many certs now. I should get to DJ more often. Then I would be more relaxed about not playing things.

― Alba (Alba), Friday, 10 June 2005 22:59 (eighteen years ago) link

Which one? I'm a big fan of "Annie, I'm not you're daddy", but also the word "Stool" out of "Stool Pigeon".

― KeefW (kmw), Friday, 10 June 2005 23:00 (eighteen years ago) link

My next DJ exploits will definitely involve "Figaro" by the Brotherhood of Man.

― KeefW (kmw), Friday, 10 June 2005 23:01 (eighteen years ago) link

the words "stool pigeon" give me a horrible mental picture.

― jed_ (jed), Friday, 10 June 2005 23:02 (eighteen years ago) link

I've run out of wine, what am I going to do about it?

― KeefW (kmw), Friday, 10 June 2005 23:03 (eighteen years ago) link

I have played Annie I'm Not Your Daddy the last three times I've DJed (at different places) so I think maybe it's time for swtich to stool, exciting as daddy has been. Actually I think last time I played it twice by mistake but it was only a friend's party so who cared?

― Alba (Alba), Friday, 10 June 2005 23:03 (eighteen years ago) link

I'm drinking V&T and frankly I'm sick of it.

― Alba (Alba), Friday, 10 June 2005 23:04 (eighteen years ago) link

Cup of tea has to be the answer for me I'm afraid. I'm listening to Sylvia's Mother sung by Dr.Hook now.

― KeefW (kmw), Friday, 10 June 2005 23:06 (eighteen years ago) link

white wine - will be moving on to tea soon.

xp!

― jed_ (jed), Friday, 10 June 2005 23:07 (eighteen years ago) link

He he!

― KeefW (kmw), Friday, 10 June 2005 23:08 (eighteen years ago) link

I can't remember the time I made myself a cup of tea after nightfall. PERHAPS I NEVER HAVE.
