OK. I will be out of work at about five - that'll give me time to go home and get dinner and come back out rather than hanging around the town for two hours.
(Unless onimo or someone else fancies keeping me company in the pub for a couple of hours and a dodgy beer'n'burger)
― ailsa, Friday, 18 May 2007 19:41 (sixteen years ago) link
I could maybe finish a bit early and grab something to eat with you - depending on how busy I am and what time I get in at. I'm on a flexitime mission at the moment and I've become a total slave to the clock.
― onimo, Sunday, 20 May 2007 20:05 (sixteen years ago) link
i'm working till 10pm on wednesday but i should be able to join you for a swift one somewhere.
― grimly fiendish, Sunday, 20 May 2007 20:40 (sixteen years ago) link
Wednesday? I thot yese were going out on Friday, no?
― stet, Sunday, 20 May 2007 20:42 (sixteen years ago) link
Friday was a plan, yes. But now aldo is coming up on Wednesday, so that means pub-going is happening then. Friday is still possibly a possibility, perhaps, though probably not since it was something me and grimly had said ages ago and he's probably gone and double-booked himself, the big tit.

not sure i'm going to be able to get out tonight now. sorry. i'll try to play it by ear. although you'll all be so pissed by the time i finish work anyway ... :)
― grimly fiendish, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 09:49 (sixteen years ago) link
I shall look forward to seeing you if you make it. First one in Sporto to grab a decent table pls.
― aldo, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 10:17 (sixteen years ago) link
I think I'm having a dodgy Wetherburger with ailsa at 6pm so we should be in Sporto by 7.
Rhoderick Dhu next door might be less busy and still has big screens...
― onimo, Wednesday, 23 May 2007 10:20 (sixteen years ago) link
I will probably meet you for a Wetherburger, though 6 might be slightly pushing it for me. Which one?
I am easy on the pub front.

so how was it? sorry i missed you, aldo (and indeed fappery in general). i ended up working late, with the car, because i had to drive to kilmarnock at lunchtime. think tomorrow's fucked as well. i'm off to hide under a stone and mutter into my sideburns.
― grimly fiendish, Thursday, 24 May 2007 21:21 (sixteen years ago) link
But great sideburns they are. Probably.
― aldo, Thursday, 24 May 2007 22:31 (sixteen years ago) link
This never happened.

Without having read a single word of this thread I say this: I think we will be visiting, but it might take us a year or so to save up to do it. I'm really excited about this trip.
― AMD, Monday, 28 February 2011 15:45 (thirteen years ago) link
Tell me about it!
Long story but, within a morning's notice I booked a 4 night trip there beginning this friday.
And yes, there's both an Optimo and Instruments of Rapture nights on the same weekend (!!!!!!!!).

Also, I have no idea about anything in Glasgow other than the Sub Club, so I will take any tips I can get. Thanks.
― EDB, Tuesday, 31 July 2012 19:54 (eleven years ago) link
I'll be at optimo on Friday and Horse Meat Disco at the berkeley suite on the saturday. see you at one (or both?). You are coming up from London but you're from the US, is that correct EDB?
― jed_, Tuesday, 31 July 2012 20:34 (eleven years ago) link
Close! I'm from Canada, specifically Toronto, and am generally just impressed that anyone here knows/remembers that.
― EDB, Tuesday, 31 July 2012 22:04 (eleven years ago) link
damn, i should have known that, in fact, since i've spent so much time there. are you on your own or with friends? i used ilx webmail to send you a PM with my number and my direct email.
― jed_, Tuesday, 31 July 2012 22:10 (eleven years ago) link
Cool, though I received no such webmail (that email address was recently deactivated and evidently doesn't forward things anymore) but if you'd like to resend it to 3dd1e b4cal at gmail.com feel free.
I'll probably be a mix of time with my brother and time alone.
― EDB, Wednesday, 1 August 2012 18:47 (eleven years ago) link
Is it standard practice to arbitrarily weed out people in the queue for optimo? On the dubious allegation I was too drunk to get in, I was refused entry at like 11:30 - a bitter pill for someone who hasn't drank since he was 18.
Anyways, I am NOT impressed.

― conrad, Saturday, 4 August 2012 10:37 (eleven years ago) link
what!? that is bizarre. i've never heard the like of that EDB.
― jed_, Saturday, 4 August 2012 13:43 (eleven years ago) link
Yeah, I even stood on one foot, touched my nose, and volunteered to recite the alphabet backwards. It didn't make any sense, and he refused to hear me out. Sucks cause that was among the primary reasons I came here.
