This one? http://www.beerintheevening.com/pubs/s/38/...rown/Bloomsbury That'd be fine aye. Or if we want to be more Strand-side, there's the Lyceum Tavern which is also a Sam Smith's. Don't mind either way really!

I hope so. We've started a thread specially for him. Come back, Craig!

that's almost funny Even older than you though.

Stevie, I've never known anyone else quite so capable of giving with one hand while taking away with the other.

Being entirely selfish, Covent Garden would suit me brilliantly.

What happened then like Stevie? Haway man, don't you remember? btw Mackem ?

or fewer serious words Word.

Thursday this week? Well it's Eurovision night at the Retro Bar near Charing Cross if you fancy it. And in all seriousness - it doesn't start till 8.30, so give us a shout if you fancy a brew somewhere a bit more normal before I nip off for my night of camp glee. As for further meet-ups between us soft southern lot, nowt planned, but any televised game (or London-based away match, not that there are many in the near future) is fine by me. Can't do Ipswich due to being in Lanzarote at the time, mind.

I avoid Ryanair where possible, but sometimes the only airlines competing on a given route are just as bad in terms of hidden "extras" and lack of service - we looked into Aer Lingus for Gatwick-Dublin in November, say, and they were asking more for basically the same level of brutal indifference towards their customers. So we're flying Ryanair. To be fair to them, aside from one horrendous delay in Lübeck about eight years ago, I've never had a real problem with them - it's just rare to find a company where you feel unclean at the very prospect of using them.

which one ?

Jim would be devastated though.

Pedantry hat on again, but wouldn't it be a bit difficult for the 23 non-EU members to vote for more far-right MEPs?

Chance would be a fine thing. I hadn't seen the thread until now, wouldn't have done either but it came up on the front page as the top thread. "Haway" was the first thing that caught my eye. (Not bothering to click on the Newcastle forum until there's pedantry points to be won - now that is Newcastle United in 2009 for me.)

I just dreamt about her the other night, actually. She was appearing on Gladiators as a last-minute stand-in for Nightshade.

I'm boycotting the correct spelling of the word "boycott". (Please remember me for future translation jobs and don't hit me sorry sorry sorry )

Clearly insecure that the suspiciously similarly-named Richard Herring has had a better Edinburgh than him this year.

Strawmantastic.

What they all said mate, glad it's good news!

Well yeah, I didn't think it actually would be Badoer. But yeah, don't see why it wouldn't be Liuzzi since he has recent F1 experience and all.

My parents have a fairly expensive pedigree cat that they basically keep under lock and key. They even have this cage thing so she can get some fresh air in the garden without actually having any semblance of freedom. It's kind of warped.

The "Badoer to Force India" campaign starts here!

Apparently when representatives from the South African organising committee went to Germany to discuss the preparations for 2010, they were more interested in going out on the lash than actually gleaning any information that might help them. One of them actually asked the head of the Gelsenkirchen team if he knew where they could find some cheap Polish whores. It could be an interesting summer.
