> [@Jennyrosity](#): > > Union Street is a dog-rough part of Plymouth, populated by sleazy bars, massage parlours and navy-types on the razz. Can I be the first to ask why there has never been a PlymDope then? Or if you like: Plymouth Ho! PS Glad you liked the piggy back jousting, **Jenny**. Who is refereeing the duel? ---

> [@Jennyrosity](#): > > **Angua** , what if I just keep my hands in my pockets? Oh wait, that’s going to make drinking difficult, erm, I’m clearly going to have to put some though into this. You drink “girly” drinks yes? Straws are the obvious solution. 😃 See… Not just a vaguely pretty face. There’s some brains in here somewhere… ---

Place names here still crack me up. Not only is there a Plymouth Ho(e), there’s also an Admiral’s Hard, and Pennycomequick (I swear I’m not making this up). ---

Someone else can sort out the location/day’s entertainment. I intend to be bladdered before I even get on the train. Hurrah! and if anyone who can get to High Barnet (end of the northern line) fancies it, I shall be having a pish-up in my local on Saturday March 6th, email for details. 🙂 ---

> [@garius](#): > > cool - we’ll need to get there early then to stake out an area before it fills up with tourists. Well, we’ll leave that to you and **Pauly** then. There is _no way_ you are getting me into a pub at 11am Saturday morning. ---

Rar! sounds good to me. Time we get there depends on what time I can drag **Twisty** out of bed. I fear the Hamster Dance is losing it’s power… :eek: oh, and I aint leaving on the 26th, I’m leaving on the 14th! **SQUEEEEEE!!!** 18 days! 18 days! 18 days! BOING BOING BOING! ---

Have just checked the train times, and I can get there for 12.30 too, or there’s a later one which’ll get me in for 13.50, but takes half an hour longer. How exactly are the two of you planning on holding a spot anyway? You could try claiming you’re both schizophrenic and all the seats are for your other personalities… ---
