The Konaki on Sauchiehall Street is nice, and has the advantage of being very near my house. It is Greek, but no plate-smashing I don't think. I went last Saturday night and it wasn't that busy.

The Thai Fountain does cheapo and v. nice half-price food between 5 and 7, if people are up for earlier eating (I am, obviously, inviting myself out, I trust this is OK - I will be a lonely soul as the mister is off being rowdy in Morecambe this weekend).

But I like Cathy's idea too.

I prefer the greeks, to the thais.

I got a job!

― cºzen (Cozen), Tuesday, 2 November 2004 17:58 (nineteen years ago) link

Well done! Is it nice?

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Tuesday, 2 November 2004 18:04 (nineteen years ago) link

I start in 2006. it's my real career and it is real nice.

― cºzen (Cozen), Tuesday, 2 November 2004 18:05 (nineteen years ago) link

Is it lawying?

― Cathy (Cathy), Tuesday, 2 November 2004 20:17 (nineteen years ago) link

: )

― RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 2 November 2004 21:49 (nineteen years ago) link

Hurrah for Cozen!

― Madchen (Madchen), Wednesday, 3 November 2004 09:07 (nineteen years ago) link

This is old news. What about dinner?

― Ally C (Ally C), Thursday, 4 November 2004 01:46 (nineteen years ago) link

that is even older news.

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 4 November 2004 01:57 (nineteen years ago) link

Old news is good news. I am on holiday.

― Ally C (Ally C), Thursday, 4 November 2004 02:05 (nineteen years ago) link

sweet relief!

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 4 November 2004 02:19 (nineteen years ago) link

Why are you up so late? Why am I up so early?

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Thursday, 4 November 2004 07:12 (nineteen years ago) link

What about bonfires?

― Cathy (Cathy), Thursday, 4 November 2004 09:11 (nineteen years ago) link

What about malfires?

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 4 November 2004 09:38 (nineteen years ago) link

Do they have bonfires, where we're going?

― Ally C (Ally C), Thursday, 4 November 2004 09:48 (nineteen years ago) link

hell is one big bonfire.

― cºzen (Cozen), Thursday, 4 November 2004 09:50 (nineteen years ago) link

no sparklers, mind.

― cºzen (Cozen), Thursday, 4 November 2004 09:50 (nineteen years ago) link

Ally, yes, but it's the Guy that starts them.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 4 November 2004 09:52 (nineteen years ago) link

QUESTION TIME, next week, is from Glasgow.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Friday, 5 November 2004 09:01 (nineteen years ago) link

Will there be a bonfire at question time?

― 3underscore (___), Friday, 5 November 2004 09:17 (nineteen years ago) link

I applied to be on Question Time. I do hope I get picked.

― Cathy (Cathy), Friday, 5 November 2004 09:24 (nineteen years ago) link

You normally have quite a good chance. It is more difficult to get to actually ask a question. My ex went to it in Manchester, and (as it turned out) her now boss was on the panel.

― 3underscore (___), Friday, 5 November 2004 09:30 (nineteen years ago) link

A guy I went to school with asked a question on Question Time once. I can't even remember what he asked because I was so amazed at seeing somebody I knew on telly. The same guy also turned up on Blind Date. I can't remember if he was the picker or pickee, but he looked like a right idiot when he bought his date a tacky, red velvet, heart-shaped cushion thing. She gave him what for and the audience sided with her, quite rightly I thought.

― Madchen (Madchen), Friday, 5 November 2004 10:38 (nineteen years ago) link

madchen, do you speak italian? could you aid in the purchase of a t-shirt?

― cºzen (Cozen), Tuesday, 9 November 2004 13:14 (nineteen years ago) link

could I resist a 'deleuze' t-shirt?!

― cºzen (Cozen), Tuesday, 9 November 2004 13:15 (nineteen years ago) link

I could!

― the bellefox, Tuesday, 9 November 2004 13:39 (nineteen years ago) link

Cozen, I'd resist anything sold as 'highbrow streetwear'.

But the answer is yes, I do. Pick your colour:

(background/writing)
white/black
black/white
royal blue/white
navy blue/white
red/white
english green (bottle?)/white
yellow/white (this seems like a silly colour choice unless you want people to squint at your chest)

Men's sizes - this is for you, right?
XS - age 12-13 (48.5 x 65 cm)
S - continental size 36-38 (48.5 x 69.5 cm)
M - continental size 38-40 (53.5 x 72 cm)
L - continental size 40-42 (56 x 74.5 cm)
I'm not sure which of the centimetre sizes are chest and which are length - get a tape measure and compare with a t-shirt you already own.

The t-shirts cost €31.20 including VAT. However, they only do mail order to people in Italy. However again, Ally and I will be in Milan from 11th to 14th December, so we could track down the Deejay Choice shop and make a purchase on your behalf if you wish.

― Madchen (Madchen), Tuesday, 9 November 2004 13:43 (nineteen years ago) link

will you buy me glass polar bears?

― RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 9 November 2004 14:27 (nineteen years ago) link

yes, 'highbrow streetwear' ugh and also the rest of the designs (exc. maybe 'lacan') are rub rub rubbish.

― cºzen (Cozen), Tuesday, 9 November 2004 18:12 (nineteen years ago) link

oh! thank you madchen, for your kind offer, and the translation. I will think about whether I want to pay £24 (??) for a 'deleuze' t. and then get back to you.

― cºzen (Cozen), Tuesday, 9 November 2004 18:13 (nineteen years ago) link

I'm pretty sure, that you don't want to.

― RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 9 November 2004 18:15 (nineteen years ago) link

I'm so sure myself but I ought to think.

― cºzen (Cozen), Tuesday, 9 November 2004 18:20 (nineteen years ago) link

Where is Glasgow going?

― Ally C (Ally C), Tuesday, 9 November 2004 18:37 (nineteen years ago) link

hollywood.

― RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 9 November 2004 18:48 (nineteen years ago) link

Bollyrood.

― Ally C (Ally C), Tuesday, 9 November 2004 18:48 (nineteen years ago) link

Glasgow (well, the Renfrew division) will be going to the pub tomorrow night. Do you fancy some united-across-the-Old-Firm-divide football watching, Ally (and anyone else?). It was so much fun the last time we watched an Old Firm game together...

― ailsa (ailsa), Tuesday, 9 November 2004 18:57 (nineteen years ago) link

my friend had a D&G t shirt that said "Deluze and Guattari" under it rather than "Dolce and Gabbana".

― jed_ (jed), Tuesday, 9 November 2004 21:40 (nineteen years ago) link

I wish I'd been around a few posts ago to make an ill-thought out "don't be saussure" joke at cozen. Oh well, next time.

― Cathy (Cathy), Tuesday, 9 November 2004 22:00 (nineteen years ago) link

hahaha

― jed_ (jed), Tuesday, 9 November 2004 22:11 (nineteen years ago) link

I'm sure I don't want one.

there's a thread around, with a string of posts with puns on intellectuals' names.

― cºzen (Cozen), Wednesday, 10 November 2004 22:20 (nineteen years ago) link

Sorry Ailsa, didn't watch the game in the end. You'll be glad I missed the opportunity.

― Ally C (Ally C), Thursday, 11 November 2004 01:05 (nineteen years ago) link

Just mentioned that on the thread started by the amusingly named Billy Mason!

― ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 11 November 2004 01:06 (nineteen years ago) link

goodness nick, 'the boiler', what a horrible song.

― cºzen (Cozen), Monday, 15 November 2004 14:59 (nineteen years ago) link

I had the delightful experience of hearing Isobel Campbell ~~wheeze~~ sing two songs last night.

― Madchen (Madchen), Monday, 15 November 2004 15:23 (nineteen years ago) link

I don't have a lot of experience.

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 15 November 2004 15:29 (nineteen years ago) link

Lay it on us, Madchen, preferably via the medium of Sinister.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller), Monday, 15 November 2004 17:29 (nineteen years ago) link
