try glasgow more

Me and Andrew are heading into Glasgow just now. Will be in Bar 91 for 6, though could be earlier if needed. Text me if any changes of plan.

apols

fantastic night. i am suffering slightly for it today. andrew, chris: superb to meet you.

carter for life!

so glad i came out last night, had a superb time too - glasgow ilxors always make ppl feel welcome, and it was wicked to meet new ppl, just sorry i didn't get a chance to talk to chris and hayley for longer.
not being much of a boozehound i am v. much feeling the effects of four pints of blanc drunk rather too quickly, apols if i got slightly incoherent/sweary - today i'm staying in feeling sorry for my poor aching head

EVERYBODY SHOULD COME TO BOREDOMS AT THE ARCHES ON TUESDAY

i will very much try to do that.

apols if i got slightly incoherent/sweary

what, you turned into me? brilliant!

I would very much like that also, but I think I'm broken. Will attempt to recover for monkeyfap next week. Top night, all.

shame to miss Ward Fowler

i will be boredoms

what about the rest of them RJG?

We all missed him!

Also great to meet you Chris and Andrew. I hope the fat men jumped.

I don't know now

i didn't go to the boredoms. didn't get out of work till 9pm. now i feel i should have made the effort.

you didn't miss anything, it was a tub of shite.

oh jed

Glasgow: I will not now be trying you this weekend - I've been redeployed to NYC instead. See you soon, though.

lol i just had my shower and was still brooding on jed's diss cos i totally thought this was the best ive ever seen boredoms, they went flat out right from the start, more aggressive, louder, more hardcore than before - friend i went with, who had never seen them before, was also raving afterwards - different strokes i guess but wld love to hear jed's objections (poor old M Gira really suffered from bar chat overspill during his set)

why is this thread always just revived whereas threads of lesser magnitude are replaced by new ones with numbers on the end?

Because we are hard.

This one works.

xp that too

uh

I heard a rumour of Accentmonkey: is it true?

oh jed, were you telling grimly boredoms were shite to making him feel better abt missing em? my irony detector always seems to go on the blink when I'm on ILX

"to make him"

i'm in a training course today being run by a dude who's a huge fan of japanese psych-rock antics. i know he was going last night, too. i haven't yet asked: "what did i miss?"

curses.

I heard a rumour of Accentmonkey: is it true?

Yes, West Beer, Saturday, 5-ish, I think (unless it gets MONOed).

not by me, it won't: i'll be away. curses and indeed boo. say hello to accentmonkey for me, dudes: she appears to rock, and i'm annoyed i won't be about to test that hypothesis.

hello glasgow! it was good to meet you! shame it was so fleeting

TM Glasgow, more.

Who is the other person?

Oh, I have just found out the answer. Hoping it's senior and not junior, otherwise bye bye yet another crush of my youth (Tim Burgess fell away last night).

EDINBURGH, Scotland (AP) — Sixties pop singer Donovan and cult film director David Lynch unveiled plans Friday for a new university in Scotland, where students will learn regular subjects while adhering to the principles of twice-daily transcendental meditation.
Donovan, whose hits include "Hurdy Gurdy Man" and "Mellow Yellow," announced he will open the Invincible Donovan University in either Glasgow or Edinburgh, bringing the hippy dream of world peace to his home country of Scotland.
The singer was joined by Lynch, an equally unlikely academic who directed film classics like "Blue Velvet" and the television show "Twin Peaks." The pair are part of a British tour to promote transcendental meditation, or TM, as a means of reducing violence, crime and stress in schools and colleges.

ah, TM.

i was, for about two days, a PPC for the natural law party for the 1997 election.

i told them my finals were probably more important.

some of what they said contained a fair degree of sense.

some of it was absolutely fucking barking.

TM is a very good technique, which sadly i don't seem to have time to practice more. TS: getting up 20 minutes early, or giving it big Zs.

i should, of course, do it in the evenings, but i was never any good at getting into that habit.

practise! not practice. bloody hell, simon.

Hello Glasgow types. It was lovely to see you all last night. I'm sorry if I talked about myself all the time. I do that.

You're doing it now :)

Great to meet you all too. Sorry for nerding out on Mr Monkey!

hello yes, it was very lovely and please apologise again to mr monkey that we vanished off while he was in the loo (we never made the train, but we raced it down the motorway and got them on it at a further away stop!)

It was lovely to meet Accentmonkey, Mr Monkey, Brother Monkey and Mrs Brother Monkey. I left West with aching cheeks, which is a sure sign a good time has been had (other sure sign: headache next morning). I invented a new pome, as follows:

Beer then gin & tonic
Feeling chronic

lol at "mrs brother monkey" - I already left a message on facebook calling poor L3sl3y "monkey-in-law" :-)

hey guys i'm so going to be in glasgow the 10th november one night only (+ sat afternoon i guess, and sunday morning).

hope to see some of youse.

top. if i'm about, i'll be out.

BE about, grimly

I'll do my best to manage out. (+ obligatory NOT MONO plea)

13th note cafe then?

why not? i've not been in there for ages and have many happy memories of it.

ah topp

Last time I was at the 13th Note, it smelled like a tramp's trousers. I'm working that afternoon, but should be free from about 6pm, I think.
