I just wanted to come in and write Glaswegian to see if it’s as much fun to write as it is to say.
Well, that was disappointing. As you were.
You’re in Ireland, yes? So would you come over on the boat?
It’s well known that Scots couldn’t organise a Dopefest in a brewery, but it’s possible to reserve alcoves in Waxy O’Connor’s if there’s a good few people. If it’s only a three or four of us, how about the 13th Note?
I like the 13th Note. Yep, I’m in Ireland and might take the ferry for the crack. Whichever is cheapest I suppose. Not exactly minted at the minute.
I like Waxy’s, haven’t been to the 13th Note since my student days, but have heard good things about it
I can probably persuade **RealOmegaMan **to come along too, although I think Cicero’s going to be a no-show
Sadly, the budget doesn’t extend to Scotland this year.
However I did send 50 pounds to buy a round of drinks. Don’t pretend you didn’t receive it! I addressed it to Cinnamon Imp, Scotland.
The only trouble with the 13th Note is if someone really wants to eat animal products. Both there and Waxy’s would be fine with me. I’m hoping we get enough of a crowd to justify reserving a wee room at Waxy’s, though, as I’ve only been there once and it’s an interesting place.
Yeah im easy to persuade
13th notes food is good and i say that as a meat eater.
I’d still be up for this. Train to Glasgow is no problem at all - do it all the time for live music.
if youz bawbags n dafties r goan tae Glesga yi’ll prob see me oot the auld toon wi ma fleeto, clutchin ma Buckie n deep fried pizza in full trackie… ah widnae say nowt tae ma face tho, aye ah’ll be runnin fae polis oot ma heed, mad wae it ya bamz!!!
[sorry, just had a flashback trance… I’ll bow out now]
Rocket.
Missed edit window - above post needed smiley.
Yes, and we’ll want to avoid these people. Perhaps NSFW if your boss is a Weegie:
Eh, right. So, you know, I realise we’re Scottish and all, but perhaps we should all try to show up at the same pub at the same time.
Suggestion: Waxy O’Connor’s, Glasgow, early November. Thoughts?
Handy for Queen Street station; good suggestion. Count me in, although I can’t do the first weekend in November.
Well, if you’re there you know I’ll be there.
This thread makes a lot more sense now I’ve realised who Dunkelheit was pre-namechange
I also can’t do the first weekend in November, but sounds good otherwise!
OK, how about second weekend, Saturday 10th November. For Waxy’s, ideally we’d start in the afternoon because it can be ridiculously busy in the evenings and we’d struggle to get a table. It may be possible to reserve an area, but so far we only have a few confirmed attendees:
Cinnamon Imp
RealOmegaMan
Dunkelheit
PaulParkhead
Scougs
with An Gadai as a possible. I’d feel stupid reserving an area for five or six people.
I’m a possible.
One more, need to think about rooms Friday and Saturday night
