About time we had one now that summer is over. We have a potential new venue about 50 yards from Russell Square tube station in London.

We can have it any night but Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights are a real pain for me - I commute from Brighton every day and don't want to come up to London again if I can possibly help it!

However, it isn't all about me!

How many of you would come to one (and we need some firmish commitments here) and which of Mon, Tues, Weds or Thurs nights is best for you?

Of course I will be there George. I wont miss it for the world. I will offer to buy you a drink as usual, you will will refuse with a scowl, you will no doubt go to the loo if I do a turn at the mic. And so the world spins. Russel Square? Where? Thats my part of town. The best night for this kind of thing will be a Friday, believe me, thats what I do for a living. Ralph

Ah, but will you accuse me of talking through your turn?

Ralph

No George, not this time; as you know I was misinformed about that and I think I stated such. If I did not then I do know. You have smashing eyes. Ralph

I don't think I could stand Missi & Ralph making eyes at each other all night. Russell Square is very near the Arsenal Stadium you know Missi :-)

Please don't make it Wednesday 8th or Thursday 9th October. I agree that Fridays are best - I came to the last one - and distinctly remember the hangover the next day! Very bad, indeed - work was nigh on impossible.

Wow Tony, how could I resist an offer like that. But I'm not half decent looking. Ask Flash for the picture of me in the bikini he made for me. The circus people are still looking for their tent :-)

I thought you were in the throes of a torrid affair. But Nick Hornby is a good idea. I'll email him & see if he's free

Jay I'll have to bring some guys who are more macho than this lot. Dale Winton, John Inman and Julian Clary have said they're definitely coming [%sig%]

Oooh you are a wag, dear. But that was mildly amusing. Didn't I hear that something exciting happened in Northants today? A car drove through the town, didn't it?

You have to catch me first, old man. Waiting for your hip replacement aren't you?

What's a car?

Have you been taking funny pills, get a refund. A car? Think of it as a donkey with an engine. No, on second thoughts that's Frank Lump-lard.

Or a donkey without a brain Sol Campbell. I thought you said Freddie was gay the other night.

sabelle

Sol is a poor beleaguered defender who looked world class in a white shirt and crap in any other. The rumour is that Freddie is gay, I'm not sure, but he is gorgeous & the face of Calvin Klein. Ralph, I work with Peter from South Woodford. He tells me you're very confused

Sabelle leave well alone and put him down you don't know where he's been, for whatever you say about yourself which I bet is not true and even if it was your worth more than that offer. Trust me... PS Why should looks come into it that should tell you something.

And just how much of a woman are you Sadbelle? If that selection of rearenders is what takes your fancy I guess the rest of us are wasting our time anyway.

my prediction is you're all be as polite as anything to one another. lots of small talk. it will become quite mundane until the booze starts to work and then g-d help us i don't know what will happen.

sabelle

Thank you Flashy You are a true gentleman. Don't worry Jay. Tony is part of the Scum, it would be sacrilege. Looks aren't important as I said I think Ricky Grover is attractive because of his personality and sparlking wit (rare for a man)

Let me assure you that these are great events. No one fights, the readings are normally brilliant, the conversation is good, the drink flows and everyone goes home happy!

"single mothers who haven't got laid since the planes hit the towers" *sniggers* How's your sex life stuaart? Mine's outrageously fab since Ive been single...

Dreadful Liarnarr. Just don't even mention it. Is it natural for a man, once he's entered his mid-thirties, to start fancying girls of 18? I'm not comfortable with that.

Oh I think it's perfectly normal Sstuart. If you can live with the pitying looks they direct at you that is.

*directs pitying look at Stuart* nah... I really can't pull it off anymore damn

Never mind Vick - most men pull it off themselves pretty well....

For what it's Sadbelle, Tony is a dead ringer for Neil Sedaka, as those that have met him will testify. He is also an unashamed narcissist.

Can I just point out that women masturbate just as much as men. And also that some men have large shoe collections.

Tue, 2003-09-09 04:05

Liana

Oh - I was talking about pitying faces Stewart. Funny that you automatically assumed i meant THAT kind of pulling off... maybe you are thinking about it a little TOO much?

Tue, 2003-09-09 04:05

You can point that out by all means Stuart, it won't help your case, but you can point it out all the same.

Vicky you're not 18 are you?

Now that you mention it, of course you sound 18 i wasn't listening properly, a man you see poor attention span.
