Because it's hard to keep track aside from the core group.

Anyone in the UK, post here! I'm wondering if we have a big enough contingent to take over America yet. Or at least the Isle of Man...

A Uk Chewer here.

From Wales as well, not that dodgy *Other* place.

Here, sir.

Oh and for the record, I think I saw Dan Whitehead smoking behind the bike sheds with the Wickerman. I don't know what the Wickerman's cigarette was doing stuffed in his belt buckle, but it didn't seem to be hindering Dan's puffing technique any...

Another Englander here. Let's talk about the weather like we should.
That burst of warm sun was nice yesterday.

Alice in Wonderland

I'm here. The party may now officially start.

Let's kick off with, "Well, yeah, that bit of sun yesterday was nice. Felt like Spring. And it's equally nice today too. I hope it holds."

Man, we're out of control! There's just no stopping us!

Things will liven up a bit in May.

Ah, you know we await your return with tremulousness of knee...

Jennifer

And several pints of lager!

I still can't drink Stella. I've turned into such a... a.. girl!

03-19-2004, 01:04 PM

Strax, april. Are you mosdef up for it?

Dan Whitehead

03-19-2004, 01:07 PM

It's my birthday mid-April, so the prospect of getting the gang together Up Norf for booze and a movie is mighty tempting. We can pretend we've been to see Hellboy and get all excited at how awesome we imagined it was.

Jennifer

03-19-2004, 01:09 PM

Why pretend to have seen Hellboy when you could actually see KBv2?!?

Charlie Brigden

03-19-2004, 01:11 PM

We can see KB and pretend we saw HELLBOY.

"The bit where Ron Perlman sliced David Carradine in half was awesome!"

Sounds like a mighty fine plan d000dz...*uninvites himself in spectacular fashion*

Alice in Wonderland

03-22-2004, 06:04 AM

Sounds good to me.

Is this the point where I say I'm looking forward to KB2 more than Hellboy, thus unleashing a ton of geektastic hatred and loathing at myself?

Dead guy

Dead Guy here in darkest Glasgow.. counting the hours 'til Dawn of the Dead opens. :)

I'm an Edinburgh lad born and raised but let's hear it for Glasgow's better shopping selection anyway.

Shaun of the Dead. All I can say is, Bring it Shaun. (see what I did there)

Babylon Five's a big pile of shit.

Alice in Wonderland

04-14-2004, 06:25 AM

Weren't we making noises about seeing a movie? There was talk of Kill Bill 2, but that's a little soon.

Hellboy? Seems appropriate.

Charlie Brigden

04-14-2004, 07:51 AM

Yeah, but that's not til like September.

I say SPIDER-MAN 2.

Ken Savage

04-15-2004, 10:38 AM

bristol is a splended place - where in that land do you reside?

Alice in Wonderland

Spidey Deux works for me. Are we to hie ourselfs up North?

Man, that sounds like a plan. End of June isn't it ?

Alice in Wonderland

04-15-2004, 12:25 PM

I would probably be good to give some folks a lift up there, if that helps.

Don't know where people would stay though, as I am good to stay at my mate's in Manchester, but that offer is probably only valid for me.

Charlie Brigden

04-15-2004, 12:37 PM

I have room for one, or two at the most on my floor, although one of the spaces is advance booked for Strax, assuming he wants to stay in my fleapit again.

Although, it's a new fleapit...

Straxboy - An Anthony Hickox Film

04-15-2004, 01:17 PM

I get dibs on who I spoon up against though, right ? Right ?

I'd be delighted to partake of your hospitalities, Mr Brigden.

Delighted.

Potishead, 13 miles from the centre

Ken Savage

04-19-2004, 05:43 AM

I live in the evil that is Bradley Stoke.

Only thing i know about Portishead is that there was a band named after that place.

i have driven through Bradley Stroke couple of times i think (well, been driven, i can't drive)

The nickname for Bradley Stoke here is Sadly Broke, is that name used locally?

No ofence intended, just wondering:)

Ken Savage

04-19-2004, 10:48 AM

they call it that here as well, although ive never understood it as house prices here are some of the most expensive in bristol - this is also why i cant afford to by a house.

i always thought that was ironic too!

Alice in Wonderland

04-19-2004, 12:50 PM

Spacktard is truly Sadly Broke... that said, show me anyone nowadays that can afford to buy a house in the UK.

If you could afford to buy it, it would be in some place where they don't pay enough money for you to live.

And the irony is that most rent bills are the same as you'd pay on a mortgage. But they need to know that you're bringing in some vast income to the tune of fifty grand.

Bah.

Yeah, house prices here truly suck:(

the way of the renting trap is to rent from a friend who was clever and A) got a very good job and B) bought a house before they skyrocketed

works for me anyway
