Thanks for clarifying Marty.

in other news I am currently sat outside the creperie on chatsworth enjoying a coffee in the sunshine and jolly pleasant it is too

 

[Stig]

Can we come to your drinks? We're only a little bit foreign. (Haringey)

I'd vote Cock, Hart or Butchers.

 

[dolly's gal]

YES!!!! COME!!!

i is also foreign cos I lives in walthamstow init

 

[blossie33]

Hope your hospital appointments go well dolly's gal.

 

[dolly's gal]

thanks blossie. I'm now sat in the sunshine on mare street by the church. I've had a successful shopping jaunt round primarni and I'm munching on a bowl for a paaand of flat nectarines. quite enjoying myself truth be told. weather helps I guess...

 

[dolly's gal]

it sure beats work, put it that way

 

[Stig]

I can do the 10th, on strike that day will be on the picket line in the morning , shouting scab at work mates

Venue?

Jolly Butchers in Stokie
Clapton Hart in errrr....Clapton
Crooked Billet ...Clapton
The Cock on Mare Street
The Plough in Homerton (haven't been there yet)
Coach and Horses ...Stokie
Any other suggestions ?

I'd be happy in any of those but have also never been to the Plough. We should investigate this.

The Plough has recently been done up - probably very similar to the Hart/Butchers now

[marty21]

can't make it tomorrow I'm afraid - I have to go down to Bath as my dad is in hospital

 

[dolly's gal]

sorry to hear that marty - hope it's not too stressful a trip for you and your dad isn't too ill

i'm also not going to make it - sorry peoples - something's come up at home. have a drink for me though!

 

[Stig]

This is why I swore I would never go to an urban meetup again. Everyone always cancels on the day. I had totally forgotten I'd sworn this on the last twelve or so meetups.

I got to thinking, does everyone just really not like me? It's not a very nice position to put yourself in, having to wonder that, so I won't take the risk again.

 

[dolly's gal]

no! sorry you feel like that. i guess people just lead busy lives. and it's only me and marty that can't make it, as far as i can tell

 

[Stig]

It was only you two going wasn't it? And littleseb but I don't think I've ever met them unless they changed their name without me noticing, which isn't unlikely.

Last meetup as just me n' Rich, and while I'm more than happy drinking in pubs with rich!, we can do that round the corner in our local.

 

[Stig]

[sensitivity] BTW marty21 hope your dad is OK of course, not blaming him for your tardy pub attendance. [/sensitivity]

 

[dolly's gal]

It was only you two going wasn't it?

and rutabowa

 

[rutabowa]

er i didn't know it had been decided for this eve sorry, i didn't check back on thread!

Will do! We like it there. And the Crooked Billet. (That's the one with all the miles of new decking isn't it?).

not a like for the post but a show of sympathy for you and your dad

 

[rich!]

A quiet pint in the Hart: just what the doctor ordered!

 

[marty21]

Cheers, been to see him, he is very poorly, connected to multiple machines atm, but it looks like he is stable atm.

 

[rich!]

Good luck with that, and best wishes to him.
