Top Nite Out - Leeds in Spring

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

:eek: You know I'm a follower not a leader John, so I'l give you a choice of three:

a) The Angel (upstairs bar). Up side: it has previous Heartland connections. Down side: it's been know to shut at the drop of a Leeds game.

b) Fab Cafe. Up side: I can give the pinball machine a good seeing to while you play bootleg bingo and discuss least-loss transfer protocols. Down side: you might bump into your teenage daughter at the bar.

c) The Fenton. Up side: guaranteed to be open. Down side: it's a good old-fashioned Tetley's boozer.

Dave seems to be in a decisive frame of mind these days, so he can decide. We'll be there from about 1pm onwards.
And you know that she's half crazy but that's why you want to be there.

Right you fcukers. Here's the deal. Fenton's 'too far' from the station, so fcuk that. We need easy quick jaunts, and given that we're not in the Dam, Ode widj Voorburgwaal will have to wait. So I recommend The Angel. It's trad, it's groovy(ish), and hopefully it won't be shut. If it is, erm, tough s**t. We'll worry about that later. (I have Johnnys mobile no. , so there'll be no loss of drinking time - very important given my 'window of opportunity).

See you all there. Anyone fancy an 11 o'clock kick off? Say yes, or die.

I think Kerry and I are making independent arrangements for lunch, but yeah, we can pop down The Angel afterwards. ;D

We'll probably bail before nightclub shenanigans.

Just heard that Our Man is currently stocking up on duty free at Cape Town airport. :)

Don't expect any of it to still be available by the time we hit Leeds ... :innocent: :twisted:

If there's no duty-free by the time you reach Leeds, I'd suggest you won't so much 'hit' town as stumble hopelessly into it, with all spew on your chins.

Twas ever thus. I assume you're making a beeline for the Angel as soon as you're here (in whatever state, but the trashedier you are the better). I'd meet you at the station, but I don't wanna be seen to be accountable to you, or have to clean you up. :lol: :kiss:

TBH, I plan to get to the pub for 12ish, so there's every chance I'll be similarly refreshed by the time you get there anyhoo.

See you Sat. 8)

I guess straight to The Angel or maybe via The Hotel? That's Frankie Boy's call as I don't know the geography or logistics. :?

Rest assured we will be presentable. My duty free consumption comment was referring to Luke's first night here (tomorrow). :innocent:

Welcome to England. Welcome to hang over hell. :lol:

Indeed. :von:

A rather short and terse text from Our Man " ...Engine failure ...back in Cape Town ..."

I'll keep you updated ... :|

Of course, I think for such long distance flights you need at least three, no? But still, not a pleasant thing to happen right. :wink:

Is he off again?

Latest: Alles klar. Problem fixed and he's leaving Cape Town at 20:30 BST to Windhoek (Air Namibia) and they've delayed the Windhoek-Gatwick flight to wait for the Cape Town passengers. So besides being naturally pissed off at the delay, the upside is that he'll arrived into Gatwick tomorrow morning at 10am :) as opposed to some god forsaken 5am. :urff:

You're a baaaad man Keith but the latest is that Our Man has " ... got on a plane again ..." 8)

Which makes sense because he can't really swim here, can he? :lol:

He's not stupid. :innocent:

Normal service has been resumed ... :D
