Well, a trip to London and 15hrs drinking, in my case. We found the club. It was grotty, the music was terrible, and a single Bells was £4 smiley - cross. Still, apart from that, fun had by all! smiley - ok
How went it in the expensive pub? smiley - winkeye

Which isn't what post 4 says or *even* implies...smiley - cross

Well, Abi, Lightman, Rachie D, Jeff, 2Legs myself and Dave drank mightly, I believe I propositioned Abi (she reckons Sam is now the member of h2g2 staf I haven't done, although I can't remember doing so to Jimster), 2legs confused the strange little Italian bar man, I discovered that even when smiley - drunk I can carry five drinks (and amzingly get quite a lot of change out of a tenner), and err, lots of other stuff that escapes me for the moment.

Ahh, IC. While it is a good film, It's not one I've ever learn. I assume from the 'driving totally pissed with 'I' in the back' scene?

Indeed it is. i had only seen the film for the first time last Thursday (after Mina an I had decided who was going to putit in the DVD player), so it was fresh in my mind rather than learnt, but there are so many wonderful quotes...smiley - winkeye

Glad the monumental masonry of the Princess Louise was ok though...
