Friday

[eca00cdy]

Hi,

Well my first weekend in E.Dulwich. Was curious if any of the other newbies to the area would be interested in going out for a drink etc tomorrow... I think either way I will go out and latch on to a group of people somehow anyway ;)

Chris where were u thinking of going? *raises eyebrow*

[Michael Palaeologus]

Head for The Plough. Keef and Ive-met-Jimmy are hosting an open mic session and a number of Forumites will be lurking there.

[Keef]

What Mike said.

[SteveT]

Goose green gym is full of people on saturdays;-)

[Mark]

yes, go to the Open Mic session at the Plough (http://www.beerintheevening.com/pubs/s/13/1375/Plough/Dulwich *) tonight, I've never been before but from what I've heard it's going to be a good laugh.

*it's been totally refurbed since the picture on that site

[Brendan]

Whoo-hoo! Happy Friday all. Open mic at Le Plough is always a laugh. :)-D

[Jah Lush]

Indeed it is. Get yer arse down there.

[Keef]

I'm starting to feel under pressure here! :-S

[Brendan]

You aren't going to be doing a Queen cover are you?

[Keef]

No, I was going to use the bass line and get Dems to do his Vanilla Ice impression!

[SeanMacGabhann]

oi! stick to the original and let's be having none of Vanilla Ice (who even denies he lifted the bassline from the song - he maintains it's actually different!)

[Keef]

Does he really? I do love a liar who will stick to their guns even when cast iron proof is shown to them!

To be fair, it has it's own bass line in the verse, but the chorus is exactly the same!

Seriously, Dems' version has to be seen to be believed! However, he has retired it, and it will probably take a very special occasion for it to be reborn... The last performance was at The Dartford Beer Festival 2005 :)-D

[Brendan]

Is it Friday yet?

[KalamityKel]

It is if you want it to b ;-)

[Jah Lush]

I can't wait until Friday as I have the day off and intend to take full advantage of it. Only thing is this week seems to be going extra extra slow.

[Brendan]

So I have just looked at my calendar and apparently it isn?t Friday today either.

I think I need a new calendar.

[Cassius]

Bored bored bored bored bored - but luckily less than 90 minutes to go..........

[ClareC]

Me too!

Its Friday though :)-D

[Brendan]

Bored, hungover, unchallenged by a job that is apparently ?Oh so fucking important? but takes all the creativity of a lobotomised eel to achieve and surrounded by prats who get hardons for things like well drafted contracts and cross referenced appendices.

But it is all nearly finished.:)-D

Well until Monday but let us not dwell on that.

[Brendan]

I would like to take this opportunity to wish you all a most sincere and heartfelt, Happy Friday. It may be a bit longwinded for a mere weekend salutation but I have 5 minutes to kill and do so dearly not want to spend it on work. So may you wind-down slowly onto a silk-cushioned plateau of stress free comfort which will carry you through until Tuesday. May the beer be cold, may the queues at the butchers be cheerful, may the gurgling laughter of little angels never break into the banshee screams of brats and may the rain bugger off.

And so it begins.

[KalamityKel]

Roll on 8pm... :)-D

[Jah Lush]

Cheers Brendan, I salute your salutations and...oh good grief it's pub time. Byeeeeeeee!:)-D

[KalamityKel]

Wooooooooooooooooooooohoooooooooooooooo it's the weekend!!!! :)-D

[Brendan]

Friday afternoon

Like swimming through treacle

The last few yards of soul-slashing, turbid surf before you collapse drunk on the shore of weekend

Seconds drip like water torture slowly growing longer with each ones passing as time stretches compensating for those hours that skip by in a flash before last orders

I don?t think it is very good for me at all you know
