Tonight 16th - Barb drinks go norf

10:55 / 16.07.02

Okay - for a change and 'cause Lurid has outlazied even me, we're having drinks in norf lunnon. Tonight 16/7, at the Hobgoblin, 274 Holloway Rd Islington. Just about opposite Holloway Rd tube. 7.30-ish. So far, present will be myself, Lurid, Mordant and Kit-Cat Club.

So if you live/work/strut anywhere in the vicinity, or just fancy a trip on the pleasant (ha!) Picadilly Line to scenic (double ha!) Holloway, then come and share my curiosity regarding what I have been reliably informed is a quality jukebox ...

I think I'm going to try the 43 bus route - if I don't turn up, I'll have gone to sleep and be in Friern Barnet...

This map might help.

11:56 / 16.07.02

Will try and make it for a swifty.

Am very tired since I haven't managed to sleep properly over the last few nights, but hey, maybe alcohol will help.

See you there I hope.

12:17 / 16.07.02

I will be at the bar with my head on the bar ...

(sorry!! I've become addicted to this game and I just couldn't resist)

12:17 / 16.07.02

Errrr .... What?

ONLY NICE THINGS

12:38 / 16.07.02

Will try to make it- depends when I leave work.

Bear

12:38 / 16.07.02

I think he's switched over to Morrisey mode again, I think I'll try and make this, I need a drink.

I'll be wearing a white shirt with big squares on it, I usually wear black, I feel so dirty....

I take all the credit for that suit's Moz-fu. All of it.

Ahem.

So what time are you there? And, more importantly, will KCC's phone be out and audible?

Hurry, stocks and time are limited...

12:42 / 16.07.02

Isn't it past your bedtime young man?

I might come - I'd like to but I have a test thingie at the gym and it depends what they do to me. Ouch.

12:46 / 16.07.02

Bedtime schmedtime. I can't sleep properly anyway.

And besides. I just downloaded Ghosts and Goblins. Arcade emulation is draining my soul away.

12:50 / 16.07.02

Be good if you could call/text/teleport yourself or whatever you're planning.

If I get there, it'll be about 7.30/8.

12:54 / 16.07.02

Ahhh, it all becomes clear, ish, errr like a muddy puddle after the rain ....

Ah, piddle! So did you guys all sit the Morrisy 101 class at school or something?? Sadly, I must have been at home that day

And it looks like so much fun too! Damn!

12:54 / 16.07.02

The original Ghosts and Goblins? Genius! I used to love that. There's something about that 80s style that we grew up with that just draws you back. Well it would if I were to play computer games. Ahem.

Ariadne I hurt at the very thought of what you just said.

12:57 / 16.07.02

I've hurt you, Loomis? Or you just ache at the thought of gyms? I hope it's the former....

12:58 / 16.07.02

no, the latter!! d'oh. I'll just go away now...

13:01 / 16.07.02

I actually think I might be able to make this - Holloway Road is not too far from my pad and all. Yeah, I'm gonna plan on it.

13:02 / 16.07.02

Well it's a little from column A, a little from column B ...

No not really. The thought of gyms is scary enough, but if they're going to be testing you for who knows what, then I start to get all Gattaca about it. Mostly because I know I'd fail and then they'd never let me marry Uma and fly to the moon.

13:06 / 16.07.02

Flying to the moon is hard work. You need strong wings and powerful lungs. Hence tests and programmes and big men shouting encouragingly at me. Ooooh.
You can have Uma, though.

13:07 / 16.07.02

That's only 'cos you're not Mr Dare, Loomis...

13:16 / 16.07.02

Ah yes he is rah-ther a smoove mofo. And I don't want Uma anymore. I saw her on Letterman a while back and she was a losing combination of tedious and annoying.

If people are going there from work then let me know and me and Mordant will get there a bit earlier to keep you company.

Bear

14:07 / 16.07.02

So I take it this bar is viewable from the tube station, I've hardly ever been to North London, its a whole new adventure. Do people speak different? Do I need a passport?

I'll be going there right after work (18:00) so I can have a few drinks so I'll actually talk to people

Actually I don't know how long it takes to get there but I imagine I'll be there sometime after 18:30

We will be there from about half six or so then. I'll be the one wearing the pink tutu.

Bear

14:39 / 16.07.02

What if it's tutu night? Could you possibly wear a hat?

14:49 / 16.07.02

Lurid's tutu is always worn as a hat.

15:05 / 16.07.02

Loomis, you've been into the sugar again haven't you dear!

Kit-Cat Club

15:15 / 16.07.02

But I find the picture of Lurid wearing a tutu as a hat all too plausible...

15:35 / 16.07.02

Damn, other plans; I'll try to drop in though.

Cherry Bomb

15:59 / 16.07.02

Be there probably close to 7pm or 7:30pm...

16:41 / 16.07.02

I would come out tonight but I haven't got a stitch to wear. (I know, it's gruesome that someone so handsome should care...)

Bear

10:15 / 17.07.02

I'm so glad I didn't have to start work today until 11am - It was nice meeting everyone, it was exactly what I needed, Thanx! Happy vibes sent to all.

Jammy sod. I slept on the bus again. At seven in the fucking morning...

11:03 / 17.07.02

You were happy in the haze of a drunken hour but heaven knows you're miserable now ...
