London in January, Moi Lovelies!

I now have train tix and a sofa to sleep on, so I'm coming to London from 4 - 6 January. I have no wish to see the city through anything other than a drunken haze. You have been warned.

Kit-Cat Club

Oh, fabulous news, I will most definitely be around. You're not going to bring any of that there scrumpy, are you? No piskies either...

Shortfatdyke

15:24 / 30.11.02

No scrumpy, but put your order in for Cornish pasties!

Stoat-ROW ROW FIGHT THE POWAH

I'm so there. Oh, ignore the Cat- bring piskies.

bjacques

17:28 / 30.11.02

Shoot. Can't get there 'til the the afternoon of the 6th, at the earliest. Might come anyway, though.

Fingers crossed, I should be on holiday at that time, so up for fun and games. And I don't even know what piskies are, but I think it's a capital idea if we have some.

Aw.

I don't actually know when my term starts but I doubt that I'll be in Cardiff by then so I'll sail in on a cloud of self-pity (because I hate New Year) and doubt which will be lifted by the fair presence of the Barbe-folk.

fab stuff, sure I can manage a quick london run around then.

If you don't bring me veggie pasties, you won't be gettin' no sticks of rock/bags of candyfloss. That's all I'm sayin'.

wtf are piskies?

Ariadne

17:41 / 02.12.02

Piskies are the Cornish little people, of course. Think of trying to pronounce pixie while drunk on scrumpy.

I'll be around, I should think. Especially if there are pasties to be had.

18:01 / 02.12.02

hey, can we have a 'traditional foods' plus pub Barbemeet ? Ariadne, presumably you can break out the veggie haggis?

Ariadne

18:06 / 02.12.02

I can indeed. Though it's not the easiest finger food. Maybe a taster of haggis elegantly arranged on some mini oatcakes.

Goodness Gracious Meme

18:18 / 02.12.02

ooohhhh. Like your style, lady...

Shortfatdyke

20:35 / 02.12.02

Veggie pasties are in good supply down here. Wholemeal pastry too, if you like. Haven't seen either rock or candy floss, so a swap is definately on the cards!

Looks like Saturday is going to be the best time for me, probably late afternoon, early evening. So put it in your diaries and I'll try and think of somewhere nice for us to go.

Shortfatdyke

12:41 / 13.12.02

Okay, after thinking about it, I'm reckoning on the Black Cap in Camden again - thought about other queerish bars, but they're either none too 'pubby' or right in central London, which will be terribly crowded, so this seems sensible. Time? I'm getting into London just before 2pm, hopefully to be met by mine host, so I might be at the pub early - 4 or 5 pm.

pinstripe fictionsuit

13:18 / 13.12.02

I'll try and be there, 5ish at the latest.

Our Lady of The Two Towers

14:41 / 13.12.02

So that's Saturday the 4th of January, neh?

pointless and uncalled for

13:52 / 14.12.02

I'll see what I can achieve.

Shortfatdyke

16:52 / 28.12.02

Well you lot may be getting sozzled together tomorrow, but save a bit of your Christmas money for drinkies next weekend - the 4th, 5pm at the Black Cap. You can laugh at my new haircut.

Stoatie - I have a Bagpuss t-shirt for you, if you want it. And Chol's cancelled, so no one else is allowed to: Potus - see if you can achieve getting on a bus/tube to Camden Town.

Tezcatlipoca

For those who've yet to sample the heady delights of the Black Cap, a map can be found here.

Goodness Gracious Meme

21:32 / 28.12.02

so you're actually going to make it this time, are you?

Shortfatdyke

21:52 / 28.12.02

Yeah, he'd better. Although after the angsty guilt trip he went on after missing the last one, I wonder how much I can make Tez squirm if he misses this meet!

Tezcatlipoca

22:28 / 28.12.02

Hey, I wasn't that angsty...

Stoat-ROW ROW FIGHT THE POWAH

00:19 / 29.12.02

I would LOVE a Bagpuss T-shirt, sfd! I'm SO there. But again, I'll have to leave early for work, unless I can scam a night off.

16:37 / 29.12.02

Sounds like enough of a gheias for me.

Tryphena Absent

04:10 / 03.01.03

Quick, this post must be bumped so that it exists in the top three as the time gets nearer and soon we will be in the pub they call Theblackcap. Ah, Camden, the part of London where locals and tourists mix in heavenly harmony.

Rex Feral

10:28 / 03.01.03

Will be there!

Ganesh

11:24 / 03.01.03

Will be working until 7pm but might head there later if there's a chance (oooh, just a sliiight outside chance) that the merry carousing will be in continuance. Xoc may be along earlier, though...

Hattie's Kitchen

15:19 / 03.01.03

I've never been to a Barb meet before and I'd love to come but will be stuck in work until 7pm - I may pop into The Black Cap for a swift one on my way home though. Faces to names and all that.

Shortfatdyke

16:48 / 03.01.03

Yeah, Hattie, all are welcome. I'm easy to spot - I'll be showing off my new tattoo!

Bear

17:17 / 03.01.03

Can't make it and couldn't make the last one either. Have fun everyone.

Next time (Gadget).

telyn

17:52 / 03.01.03

I think I'll be along to say hi and all that, and then sprint for the last train home (as usual). Irritating public transport!

Tryphena Absent

18:57 / 03.01.03

Well my car might be travelling with me because I am sick of sprinting home for the last train!

Bill Posters

19:50 / 03.01.03

I'll try, but due to giving up various pleasant but damaging things I may be no fun whatsoever to be around (really, I've been starting on everyone for the littlest things... peps here have seen how stupid I can get when I'm in this headspace and will testify to the fact it may be rather more utilitarian for me to stay at home while my brain chemistry sorts itself out. So yeah, basically yous all have fun if I don't see yous.
