You are, at the moment, a long way away. We should probably both be grateful for this.

Potential violence already, two months in advance of even a single being consumed.
I hope someone is going to clear away the rubble of the pub afterwards.

Who said anything about violence? Kerr, you say anything about violence?
When?
Felonious Monk - h2g2s very own Bogeyman Posted Sep 13, 2003
I mean, 'if this carries on I'll knock yer bleedin' 'eads together!' 
When?
Kerr_Avon - hunting stray apostrophes and gutting poorly parsed sentences Posted Sep 13, 2003
No violence from me. Why, d' y' want some?

Hey, thats foreplay where i come from...
When?
Kerr_Avon - hunting stray apostrophes and gutting poorly parsed sentences Posted Sep 13, 2003
Which says more about where you come from than I care to think about.

Sod the pub. Let's all meet down the Bus Shelter...I think we'd be among people who understood us better.

If they drink Thunderbird, Mad Dog or 20-20 I think you may well be right...
When?
Kerr_Avon - hunting stray apostrophes and gutting poorly parsed sentences Posted Sep 13, 2003
20/20, oh that brings back memories can you even get it anymore? My mates used to sneak it into clubs under there coats, as being poor 15 years we couldn't afford to but from the bar
When?
Felonious Monk - h2g2s very own Bogeyman Posted Sep 13, 2003
The stuff that they drink doesn't bring back any memories. In fact, it obliterates them.
When?
Kerr_Avon - hunting stray apostrophes and gutting poorly parsed sentences Posted Sep 13, 2003
You'll note I said my friends drank it, not me.
When?
Blues Shark - For people who like this sort of thing, then this is just the sort of thing they'll like Posted Sep 13, 2003
I'm pretty sure the offy down the road still does Thunderbird *and* 20/20, to be honest. Sad really isn't it?
I think perhaps obliterating their memories may be the point...
When?
Kerr_Avon - hunting stray apostrophes and gutting poorly parsed sentences Posted Sep 13, 2003
I think I'm already there- my mother spent hours last week trying to remind me of going to Austria to see the total eclipse of the sun, and I can't remember a single thing about it. 
When?
Blues Shark - For people who like this sort of thing, then this is just the sort of thing they'll like Posted Sep 13, 2003
How long ago was this obviously life changing event?
When?
Kerr_Avon - hunting stray apostrophes and gutting poorly parsed sentences Posted Sep 13, 2003
Err, when was the last eclipse of the sun? When I was 16, I think? say 5 years ago. I may be very wrong though. I could have been before my A level mooks, so when I was 18, 3 years ago. You see, no memory at all
When?
Kerr_Avon - hunting stray apostrophes and gutting poorly parsed sentences Posted Sep 17, 2003
Right- Bruce has his new shift patterns, and is definately off on the 15th and 16th, so you can bung him down as an attendee too

Just in case anyone will be going to the pub without a Derbyite to herd them, here's a map showing where it is. The road it's on is called Station Approach. Well, actually for the 500 yards or so of it's length it goes from Midland Road to Station Approach to Railway Terrace, but the bit where the pub is is Station Approach.
