unless someone else knows

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 6 October 2005 12:29 (eighteen years ago) link

for definite

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 6 October 2005 12:29 (eighteen years ago) link

and so on

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 6 October 2005 12:29 (eighteen years ago) link

I was sure she said once she did.

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Thursday, 6 October 2005 12:31 (eighteen years ago) link

I just thought if that was the case, it'd be really bad to get so many mails about Gerry going to a wedding.

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Thursday, 6 October 2005 12:32 (eighteen years ago) link

Or how he walks.

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Thursday, 6 October 2005 12:32 (eighteen years ago) link

Which is definitely an amble, in my opinion.

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Thursday, 6 October 2005 12:32 (eighteen years ago) link

She has nobody to blame but herself.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 6 October 2005 12:35 (eighteen years ago) link

Well, quite.

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Thursday, 6 October 2005 12:38 (eighteen years ago) link

Although that could be construed as harsh.

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Thursday, 6 October 2005 12:39 (eighteen years ago) link

I mean, I'm sure once she xplained why she did it, and it wasn't that bad a reason.

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Thursday, 6 October 2005 12:39 (eighteen years ago) link

I was very conscious of how I was walking at lunchtime thanks to this thread. I ambled over to St Enoch's and back. Maybe I should listen to faster music.

Sigur Ros cause ambling, you heard it here first.

Glasgwegians: never rent a mobile phone in America :(

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 6 October 2005 13:57 (eighteen years ago) link

yes, i do. and thanks for flooding my inbox with such amazing musings!
the reason i do it: this thread breaks my computer at work. so in order to keep abreast of breaking glasgow news and important developments, i need only check my excite account. tho for some reason RJG's posts tend to get sent directly to my 'trash' folder. hmmmm
madchen: when did you hop the atlantic? i thought you were just going to dublin.

― dahlin (dahlin), Thursday, 6 October 2005 16:42 (eighteen years ago) link

She did, but for some reason she decided to hire an American mobile phone for the trip, hence her problems.

April, 2004.

― Ally C (Ally C), Thursday, 6 October 2005 17:50 (eighteen years ago) link

Tardy cunts.

― Ally C (Ally C), Thursday, 6 October 2005 17:51 (eighteen years ago) link

Ally sums up my thoughts exactly. I am hoping they are mistaken tardy cunts. Mistaken to the tune of €555. Euros!

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 6 October 2005 18:24 (eighteen years ago) link

ey up glasgow, i'm back.

and i think i can help solve tomorrow night's space problems, 'cos i'm not gonna be able to make it now ... i'd kind of overlooked the fact that the 7th is my best mate's birthday. erk. this is an unfortunate clash, because i was rather looking forward to trying out some of my new-found greek skills on dahlin.

apologies if this fucks anything up, but to be honest it sounds like i'll be doing you a favour. if there is any deposit misery, let me know and i shall bung a fiver towards the ailsa beer fund.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Thursday, 6 October 2005 20:05 (eighteen years ago) link

My birthday is the 7th Jan... You must've made a mistake.

Birthday or not, you won't be trying out your 'greek' skills on me!

― KeefW (kmw), Thursday, 6 October 2005 20:23 (eighteen years ago) link

gosh i'm confused. no matter. all shall be revealed tonight i'm sure
8pm? i hope so.
later taters

― dahlin (dahlin), Friday, 7 October 2005 09:03 (eighteen years ago) link

So is the prematch build up in the note?

― scotstvo (scotstvo), Friday, 7 October 2005 14:27 (eighteen years ago) link

I'm going to the gym (!!!) so I'll see you at the Russian at eight. Cheerio!

― Mädchen (Madchen), Friday, 7 October 2005 14:54 (eighteen years ago) link

I didn't make it to the gym. Hahahahahaha!

― Mädchen (Madchen), Friday, 7 October 2005 17:44 (eighteen years ago) link

That was good. Thanks again, Glasgow, we're getting quite good at this now. Mmmm vodka.

― ailsa (ailsa), Saturday, 8 October 2005 09:17 (eighteen years ago) link

Mmmm, nail varnish remover.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Saturday, 8 October 2005 10:19 (eighteen years ago) link

so what did i miss? how was the beetroot? i was in the lismore, which was full of men with moustaches. i felt bereft.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Saturday, 8 October 2005 10:53 (eighteen years ago) link

You missed vodka which tasted like mango-flavoured nail varnish remover. Nice food. Beer. A phone call from Barry Lasagne. A bill in excess of £200. And a laugh.

And we missed you. *cue violins*

― ailsa (ailsa), Saturday, 8 October 2005 11:12 (eighteen years ago) link

aww! *touched*

"barry lasagne"?!

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Saturday, 8 October 2005 11:22 (eighteen years ago) link

Markelby. (see Internet Hardman requires new moniker for details)

― ailsa (ailsa), Saturday, 8 October 2005 11:41 (eighteen years ago) link

ha! superb.

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Saturday, 8 October 2005 11:49 (eighteen years ago) link

Chris Tarrant has been removed from the masonic :(

Glad you had fun (if drinking nail varnish remover constitutes fun, that is).

I got very very drunk until 5am. Now I have to go get drunk again and watch Scotland.

― Onimo (GerryNemo), Saturday, 8 October 2005 11:50 (eighteen years ago) link

one would have to be drunk to do that, yes

― dahlin (dahlin), Saturday, 8 October 2005 17:04 (eighteen years ago) link

Pity poor Scotstvo who had to stand at Hampden in the pishy horrible hailstones sober and watch it. At least it was bearable in the pub (by virtue of beer, free pies, no hailstones and the bar staff turning the TV over just in time to see Beckham getting sent off).

― ailsa (ailsa), Saturday, 8 October 2005 17:09 (eighteen years ago) link

oh, football

― RJG (RJG), Saturday, 8 October 2005 17:10 (eighteen years ago) link

Top night everyone. On the way home I got abuse from some pissed lassie who said I should have gone to specsavers. But I DID go to specsavers, I drunkenly pointed out, which left her rather confused.

Anyway, I didn't get the Metro job. :( Oy vey. Better things await me...one day.

― Stew (stew s), Saturday, 8 October 2005 17:47 (eighteen years ago) link

I almost got in trouble, for bringing a friend along
it was okay, in the end, though, I think

a good night but wish I hadn't had anything to drink

― RJG (RJG), Saturday, 8 October 2005 17:53 (eighteen years ago) link

You didn't get in trouble, though, and all was well, once we'd completed our takeover of all the tables and menus in the place. Has he remembered how he knows me yet?

I wish I had had more similar things to drink rather than a variety of vodka and red wine and nasty Sam Smith stout.

― ailsa (ailsa), Saturday, 8 October 2005 18:23 (eighteen years ago) link

i got specsavers abuse in stirling, funnily enough
sorry about the job! maybe it was a blessing in disguise.
i've just spent the past hour doing long-term financial planning. how scary is that? it's official: i'm an adult now

― dahlin (dahlin), Saturday, 8 October 2005 18:50 (eighteen years ago) link

I too am the recipient of specsavers abuse, from a drunk guy carrying a bottle of buckie along princes st.

I'm going to see Deerhoof tonight at Mono. One D.Geraghty may well be coming along also.

― hmmm (hmmm), Monday, 10 October 2005 14:23 (eighteen years ago) link

deerhoof are good live

― cozen (Cozen), Monday, 10 October 2005 14:29 (eighteen years ago) link

Yeah, I saw them play almost 2 years ago in Edinburgh. They were tight and funny. The new album has moments of absolute genius so I'm really excited about it.

― hmmm (hmmm), Monday, 10 October 2005 14:40 (eighteen years ago) link

I'll be at Deerhoof too. Hurrah! They were tip top at ATP in Feb.

― Stew (stew s), Monday, 10 October 2005 15:15 (eighteen years ago) link

And they were even better tonight. Fucking incredible.

― Stew (stew s), Monday, 10 October 2005 23:37 (eighteen years ago) link

I thought the last 2 songs were really incredible. The rest, I wasn't conviced about. The songs from the new album seemed to have difficulty translating to a live performance. Also, the sound in mono is really quiet.

― hmmm (hmmm), Tuesday, 11 October 2005 07:35 (eighteen years ago) link

Quiet? I had my earplugs in for about half of it. It was fine.

― Stew (stew s), Tuesday, 11 October 2005 09:04 (eighteen years ago) link

hmmmm, I don't think I'm particularly deaf. I was standing under the dome so that may have had an effect.

― hmmm (hmmm), Tuesday, 11 October 2005 09:15 (eighteen years ago) link

I'm with hmmm, when I saw them in Bristol last week the last two songs were amazing but the rest of it was only OK (and I really enjoyed them at ATP). It was very quiet here as well.

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Tuesday, 11 October 2005 09:32 (eighteen years ago) link

I saw Deerhoof play a couple of years ago. They were boring.
