I'm aiming to have a social beverage after my hours of work tomorrow evening in the London area.

As planning things too far in advance dont work very well who would like to join me now?

(I cant promise any hardcore tramp action but I'll see what I can do)
Posted by beargod, 15:23, 8th May 2003:
 
I would do if I could be bothered
Posted by Sul, 15:25, 8th May 2003:
 
fuck ya then :p
Posted by cal, 15:26, 8th May 2003:
 
ok
Posted by Victor Menendez, 15:27, 8th May 2003:
 
I might be able to make it. (no surprises there)
Posted by cal, 15:34, 8th May 2003:
 
surely you're busy with your non-stop social life?
Posted by Victor Menendez, 15:34, 8th May 2003:
 
who me?
Posted by cal, 15:41, 8th May 2003:
 
:)
Posted by Sul, 15:55, 8th May 2003:
 
yes you
"not me"
then who?
"Cal's too busy with his non-stop social life"
Posted by Victor Menendez, 16:08, 8th May 2003:
 
ah ok, we just knock around with the tramps.
Posted by Sul, 16:20, 8th May 2003:
 
Well if its just us three we'll have an almost decent chat up line. As we come from the north, middle and south of the country we can approch a bird and ask her "top, middle or bottom?"

This is the reason I'm single isnt it?
Posted by Victor Menendez, 16:21, 8th May 2003:
 
one of the reasons.
Posted by chandler, 16:24, 8th May 2003:
 
depends on the type of girl, if its a skanky one she will probably pick all three points of entry, at the same time
Posted by cal, 16:25, 8th May 2003:
 
i am distrubed yet intrigued
Posted by chandler, 16:27, 8th May 2003:
 
well you get the middle one cal
Posted by Sul, 16:29, 8th May 2003:
 
Woohoo I get the bottom. Now that would be striking it lucky :)
Posted by arsepuppy, 16:32, 8th May 2003:
 
Or striking it mucky.
Posted by Miki, 16:33, 8th May 2003:
 
Do you have to be skanky to apply ?
Oh London Folks, pity I'm not in London ...
Posted by chandler, 16:34, 8th May 2003:
 
Sul, may i remind you that if cal has "the middle" and you get the bottom then you will be either side of the girl. and well it doesnt bear thinking about
Posted by chandler, 16:35, 8th May 2003:
 
MIKI!!!!!! OMG
Posted by chandler, 16:36, 8th May 2003:
 
I cant believe miki said that. I mean I know shes Dutch but jeeeez.

Posted by beargod, 16:41, 8th May 2003:
 
It is rather rude
Posted by Miki, 16:44, 8th May 2003:
 
only if it happens, and since no-one is responging to the 'offer' I'm going home alone
Posted by beargod, 16:47, 8th May 2003:
 
yeah but no-one said no to the offer
Posted by Miki, 16:48, 8th May 2003:
 
Ignoring a girl is answer enough :D
Posted by cal, 16:48, 8th May 2003:
 
hehe
Posted by Sul, 16:53, 8th May 2003:
 
O_o

Miki, you are seriously concerned that no-one is taking you up on your 4some offer? Are all Dutch girls this promiscuous (sp)?
Posted by chandler, 16:56, 8th May 2003:
 
she was saying to me that she would do it "with the right GUYS"
Posted by Sul, 16:59, 8th May 2003:
 
Respect to Miki :)
Posted by beargod, 17:00, 8th May 2003:

Posted by chandler, 17:02, 8th May 2003:

Posted by beargod, 17:03, 8th May 2003:

Posted by Sul, 12:23, 9th May 2003:
 
James: Yeah, it was planned that way ;)
Posted by jlittle, 12:23, 9th May 2003:

Posted by beargod, 12:23, 9th May 2003:
 
I don't know I am a cheapskate and can't be bothered to get into Lndon, well not too far. The train goes to Charring Cross or waterloo. and I probably won't go anyway, so make plans and if i fit in then i may come
Posted by cal, 12:24, 9th May 2003:
 
fuck you then :)
Posted by arsepuppy, 12:25, 9th May 2003:
 
Shit, London's not that far for me by train.
Posted by cal, 12:25, 9th May 2003:
 
sul: no idea. don't ever go to pubs. i'm right near leicster square and covent garden...
Posted by cal, 12:25, 9th May 2003:
 
ap: you coming then?
Posted by arsepuppy, 12:28, 9th May 2003:
 
dunno, always a chance. Found out I'm not going to Leicester tonight so who knows? Chances are though I'll be too wrecked to come though. Friday night is binge night at the old Brothel.
Posted by Sul, 12:29, 9th May 2003:
 
Oh, I forgot you moved offices. West end it is then.

"Oh facking 'ell, we're goin' up west int we, oh facking 'ell"
Posted by Sul, 12:33, 9th May 2003:
 
Leicster Square weatherspoons? Cheap booze, probably packed, ideal don't you think?
Posted by Victor Menendez, 12:37, 9th May 2003:
 
fine by me.
Posted by cal, 13:51, 9th May 2003:
 
sounds like a plan
Posted by Victor Menendez, 14:05, 9th May 2003:
 
i hope to be in the pub opposite my work in about an hour and 10 (or 5 mins after my boss leaves, whichever is soonest) what time are we talking about?
Posted by Sul, 14:08, 9th May 2003:
 
I dont finish til 6 and it'll take me around 15 mins to get there so 6:15 for me.

Cal?
Posted by Victor Menendez, 14:17, 9th May 2003:
 
I'll get to waterloo for six and hang around looking sinister then.

also, have you seen this? sul?
Posted by Sul, 14:19, 9th May 2003:
 
Eeek. I'm a slacker.

Ok then hang around waterloo looking sinister then

Callum?
Posted by beargod, 14:23, 9th May 2003:
 
Its scary how I am still catching up to you all
Posted by Victor Menendez, 14:25, 9th May 2003:
 
why dont you catch up to us in Leicester square you big nancy?
Posted by beargod, 14:26, 9th May 2003:

Posted by chandler, 14:27, 9th May 2003:

Posted by beargod, 14:32, 9th May 2003:
 
probably, I will try it later
Posted by cal, 15:12, 9th May 2003:
 
Leicester square at 6:15 is good for me
Posted by jlittle, 15:45, 9th May 2003:
 
country? i thought you lived in tonbridge! that's enough to scare anyone! ;P
Posted by beargod, 15:48, 9th May 2003:
 
true, I came from Heathfield though in the country of Sussex, I have only moved to Tonbridge, people in Tonbridge scare me
Posted by Victor Menendez, 15:52, 9th May 2003:
 
right, off to the pub, see you at six sul, six-fifteen cal, the rest off you who can't be arse to show *whatever*
Posted by arsepuppy, 15:56, 9th May 2003:
 
Still dunno what I'm doing, but it will involve me getting wrecked.
Posted by cal, 15:59, 9th May 2003:
 
come to london!
Posted by arsepuppy, 16:04, 9th May 2003:
 
My choices:

1. Go to London. And get wrecked. (woo!)
2. Go to Oxford. And get wrecked.
3. Go to Leicester to see Mrs. Bumdog (otherwise I won't get to see her for a month. Although her dad's funeral is in a few days so she may need to be with her family and sort it all out)

So it's 1 or 2.

Posted by Sul, 16:08, 9th May 2003:
 
what he said
Posted by Sul, 16:13, 9th May 2003:
 
Just think of the fun you'll have when people ask, "are you coming to Oxford?" and you say "No, I'm going to meet three blokes who I know from the internet and have never met before"

Thats always fun :)
Posted by Sul, 11:53, 12th May 2003:
 
Noone's asked us how it went :(
Posted by chandler, 11:54, 12th May 2003:
 
how did it went?
Posted by jlittle, 11:55, 12th May 2003:
 
i lost this thread, but wanted to ask!
Posted by beargod, 11:57, 12th May 2003:
 
how did it went?


Does that sound odd?
Posted by cal, 11:58, 12th May 2003:
 
i was wondering why nobody asked


it went well, i think. especially the bit where vic tried to make some guy smoke to use the toilet...
Posted by cal, 11:58, 12th May 2003:
 
beargod: yes
Posted by chandler, 11:59, 12th May 2003:
 
smoke to use the toilet?
Posted by cal, 12:01, 12th May 2003:
 
yup, you heard me
Posted by chandler, 12:03, 12th May 2003:
 
ok
Posted by Sul, 13:35, 12th May 2003:
 
Yeah. It went really well. We chatted like old friends. We're great together. We were like the 3 musketeers. Only better. And more pissed. And Vic tried to make some guy smoke to use the toilet...
Posted by cal, 13:44, 12th May 2003:
 
..which is always good for a laugh

there'll be more iamcal.com action next friday if anyone wants to go
Posted by Sul, 13:46, 12th May 2003:
 
dont overdo it. I dont perform well in big crowds. But if we are having some hardcore iamcal action I'll wear my iamcal boxers. And T-shirt.
Posted by cal, 13:50, 12th May 2003:
 
woohoo.


(err, i hope you're joking)
Posted by Sul, 13:53, 12th May 2003:
 
Yes. But I wont be after tomorrow night. :D
Posted by Victor Menendez, 13:53, 12th May 2003:
 
goddamn burgerking facists, its macd's for me from now on.
Posted by cal, 14:02, 12th May 2003:
 
i'm pretty sure that macdonalds also have a no smoking policy
Posted by jlittle, 14:03, 12th May 2003:
 
they do indeed
Posted by Victor Menendez, 14:28, 12th May 2003:
 
maybe so, it seemed a good idea in my drink-addled mind.
Posted by 100% kitten, 14:32, 12th May 2003:
 
random fact: the distance from the doors to the counter of mcdonalds in st albans is further than in any other mcdonalds in the world.

Like you, I went out with people I'd met on the internet (b3tans) on Friday, which was nice.

One of them had some amoosing health warnings on his cigarettes along the lines of these, but better. he's sending me a link to his later, which I'll share if anyone's interested
Posted by cal, 14:37, 12th May 2003:
 
nice
Posted by cal, 14:37, 12th May 2003:
 
and yes - interested to see them
Posted by 100% kitten, 14:39, 12th May 2003:
 
is there any particular reason why iamcal has become a rumbling juggernaut of annoyance?
Posted by chandler, 14:39, 12th May 2003:
 
yes cos someone said it
Posted by cal, 14:41, 12th May 2003:
 
can someone dig up the thread?

but basically, the tag line changes every now and then, usually to something someone posted
Posted by cal, 14:41, 12th May 2003:
 
i think it was vic who described the riddle thread as a "rumbling 700 post juggernaught of annoyance"
Posted by Victor Menendez, 14:57, 12th May 2003:
 
can't remember which thread it was.
Posted by 100% kitten, 14:58, 12th May 2003:
 
it's a nice expression, but it's not how I'd describe it :)
Posted by cal, 15:00, 12th May 2003:
 
think you can do better?
Posted by 100% kitten, 15:00, 12th May 2003:
 
not the riddles thread, I don't think I've ever actually read that, I meant the site as a whole.
Posted by cal, 15:03, 12th May 2003:
 
ahh, ok. how would you describe the site as a whole?
