January/ February Beers

Dr.Giggles

Right, the plan is to head to the Round Table, on Friday, starting 7:30-8:00. They do food in the pub, in case anyone's wondering about grub before booze.

Anyone up for some drinkies this month? I am notoriously bad for organising stuff, and as I tend not to venture out of beautiful Tooting (as it has all my wants and needs) I am not too aware of pubs etc

I was thinking we could do a meet in the middle like last time perhaps (I was not there but I heard that worked out pretty well for people)

so lets me know what ya think, I need some Irish peeps to update me on all the nonsense that is happening in Ireland, I am currently out of touch as I have become somewhat fixated with the weird section of The Metro.

oooh i may actually be free on friday 4th. big maybe. i'll keep an eye on this!

Early Feb sounds great - January's been the usual bastard of a month for me with no money available for beverages

Central sounds good too, though I'd like to venture somewhere new. I'll have a look around the interwebs this weekend and see if I can find somewhere that looks interesting.

I voted Friday the 4th but really I'm pretty flexible and keen for boozage.

I somehow misread that as "keen for boobage", and was going to ask exactly what expectations you had for a boards beer session... o_O

Boobage...boozage, it's all fun! Although if we end up in a camra pub it may be more like moobage.

Right folks, from the poll it looks like Friday next week is the most popular date. I reckon somewhere around Leicester Square is the best idea - we could try and do food again, but tbh given what Fridays are usually like it's probably best to go for a pub that serves food.

I suggest the Round Table as it's a nice pub, it's handy in terms of location, it has an upstairs section, and it does food. Plus if it all goes pear-shaped we can try the Carrick Arms down the road or the Ship & Shovell.

Wouldn't you know it - I finally book a night to go see Grease and boards drinks are arranged!!!

As it is starring Ray Quinn, I may need a drink afterwards so will drop someone a text to see if you are still out.

Fysh

Right, gang, I'll be sending texts tomorrow to confirm, but I get the impression from this thread that booze on Friday's not exactly a goer. What say Friday week (ie the 11th) instead?

ballsymchugh

i'm very 50/50, if it's on earlyish, i'll be able to come in for a bit.

Either one is alright for me at the moment.

Dr.Giggles

D-Generate

Arrah feck off with you so.

I'm free this Friday. I can't really tell after that; too far into the future. Maybe.

Fysh

Ah grand, looks like there should be half a dozen or so of us. Right so, let's say the Round Table, Friday, starting 7:30-8:00. They do food in the pub, in case anyone's wondering about grub before booze.

I'm going home this weekend, but have a great time!

silvervixen84

I seem to always be back in Ireland when the beers are on!! I promise to meet up again with you guys really soon

Lemming

One weekend I'll actually make it down to London for a beers night ...

ballsymchugh

had to be at liverpool street at 9 and was battling it through the traffic enough so couldn't risk going to the pub beforehand, sorry!! will make one sometime soon!!

bluedolphin

Sorry for the no-show... I appear to have come down with the plague/man flu/a head cold and couldn't muster up the strength to go in... Been dosed up on tea on the couch watching rugby all day under my blanket. Atchoo. Cough. Cough. Sniff. Hopefully better for the next beers!

Jack B. Badd

You & me both. I stayed for grub & a few cokes & then ran away when it became apparent that I wouldn't be leaving Fysh on his lonesome :-s Stupid illness...
