Honestly!

OK, I´m a believer! Galactic theme makes everything look suspicious in Madrid and surroundings these days.

And how much would be for a train fare btw Liverpool and GLW, btw

olenska (olenska), Monday, 16 January 2006 16:58 (eighteen years ago) link

I'm sorry--I don't know

I bet it...depends

RJG (RJG), Monday, 16 January 2006 17:01 (eighteen years ago) link

You could probably walk.

Looks like you have to change trains twice, though

Oi, Glasgow, tomorrow night. Belle and Sebastian. Virgin, ABC. Somewhere between those lies a pub. I will be in it. Will anyone be joining me?

ailsa (ailsa), Monday, 16 January 2006 17:54 (eighteen years ago) link

The Variety is a handy sort of bar.

Mädchen (Madchen), Monday, 16 January 2006 20:04 (eighteen years ago) link

Last time I was there, it was me plus five gentelemen. I want to try it again!

Mädchen (Madchen), Monday, 16 January 2006 20:05 (eighteen years ago) link

The five gentlemen or the pub? I still have no idea what I am doing - Neil is threatening to take me out for food now since I have no firm plans. Shall I text you tomorrow?

If anyone needs 2 tix for tonight let me know as I know someone who's trying to flog a pair for 45 quid.

nothing cheaper than 230 euros ; ryanair, why madrid is not a cheap destination? Please, hooligans of the world, start holidaying here!

olenska (olenska), Tuesday, 17 January 2006 11:15 (eighteen years ago) link

OK, tickets are gone to some mug.

RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 18 January 2006 12:25 (eighteen years ago) link

Impromptu ILXor meeting last night: Cozen
Not-very-impromptu ILXor meeting: Madchen and Stet
Fairly impromptu, but not entirely unexpected, ILXor meeting: Keith W
Celeb count at B&S gig: Gerry Love, Stephen Pastel (Madchen took a sneaky photo), that bird what used to do that late night debate thing we talked about upthread that Stew was on once - oh, yeah, Trial By Night.

We think Murdoch's had singing lessons.

ailsa (ailsa), Wednesday, 18 January 2006 14:29 (eighteen years ago) link

Oh, yeah, other celeb at B&S = Sandy Nelson who plays the postie in Still Game and was in the Century of Fakers video. Glasgow's good for liggers, isn't it?

sandy nelson at jongleurs at the end of march

RJG (RJG), Wednesday, 18 January 2006 22:18 (eighteen years ago) link

he went to my school.

jed_ (jed), Wednesday, 18 January 2006 22:23 (eighteen years ago) link

He used to be in a comedy musical thingie called Tequila Mockingbird. They were like an indie version of the Barron Knights. He used to be in my social circle when I moved in different social circles several years ago. He made a shed-load of money for being in Braveheart for about ten seconds. There ends my knowledge of rubbish Sandy Nelson facts.

sorry, art school

I'm wavering but I sorely regretted not going to d.eulberg

cozen (Cozen), Wednesday, 18 January 2006 22:35 (eighteen years ago) link

Murdoch's not had singing lessons - he's just channelling Leo Sayer

I too am wavering about this. I was spectacularly dissapointed with the mayer/kohnke night in april. Plus, I have to work on sunday, although not until the afternoon.

hmmm (hmmm), Thursday, 19 January 2006 10:22 (eighteen years ago) link

Well done, Madchen.

the mayer/kohncke black rabbit? I loved that!!

I don't think I can afford r.the dog but I might persuade myself

todd bodine (tresor) is playing this weekend too

cozen (Cozen), Thursday, 19 January 2006 10:25 (eighteen years ago) link

I was given a banana in Glasgow this morning.

Onimo (GerryNemo), Thursday, 19 January 2006 10:28 (eighteen years ago) link

i am cripplingly and frighteningly hungover today.

grimly fiendish (grimlord), Thursday, 19 January 2006 11:27 (eighteen years ago) link

I haven't had a drink since last Saturday! Worrrying, I feel more fuzzy headed in the morning than I usually do. Last night seems hazy.

Well it was given out along with a promotional leaflet for Gl4sg0w Ch1r0pr4ct1c - with whom I've previously associated Sc1ent0l0gy type practices (see Chiropractors...do they work?) so they may be adopting new techniques to get us all to pay cash money to eradicte musculoskeletal subluxations.

Onimo (GerryNemo), Thursday, 19 January 2006 12:12 (eighteen years ago) link

*eradicate

and no, I haven't eaten it yet, but it looks more appetising than the dry looking clementines I brougt from home.

Oh, that's been on for years. It's one of the things we Highlanders made up to make you lot laugh :)

ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 19 January 2006 19:29 (eighteen years ago) link

are you wetting yourself with hott anticipation mandee? i would.
no. not really
enjoy!

dahlin (dahlin), Thursday, 19 January 2006 21:37 (eighteen years ago) link

Can you get off the subway at Buchanan St and get back on the same train at St Enoch's? Mebbe. See The Subway Challenge (note you probably need to Save Link As... to see the video)

stet (stet), Sunday, 22 January 2006 22:20 (eighteen years ago) link

haw, that was rubbish! Saying that, I usually take the car to Govan and get the subway to Buchanan Street. On Friday, I left the house at the same time I usually do, but instead of going along Govan Road, I cut through the Clyde Tunnel, parked just off Dumbarton Road, and got an earlier train than I usually get by the time I've fannied about parking at Govan and getting to the station (yet, sadly, no brownie points for being in work earlier). Perhaps I should film it.

ailsa (ailsa), Sunday, 22 January 2006 22:33 (eighteen years ago) link

they kinda set it all up first time round so that the continuity proves whether he succeeds or not. he doesn't. but then on the second try he does succeed but the continuity isn;t there. also there are too many cameras filming him coming out of the station for the second try, which there isn't first time. i caLL shenanigans.

jed_ (jed), Sunday, 22 January 2006 22:37 (eighteen years ago) link

But, first time, they start by concentrating on one woman in the carriage, then once he gets off they concentrate on other people. Then, when he turns up, it's not about the people on the carriage at all. (I might not have been paying full attention, but still, surely it would be more continuity-friendly to be concentrating on the random passengers?). Seconded on the shenanigans front (hence why I said "that was rubbish" but I failed to explain why)

ailsa (ailsa), Sunday, 22 January 2006 22:42 (eighteen years ago) link

yeah, i guess the continuity is wrong both times.
