As some of you know the intent is to get a bit of a group together for a beer or two before Christmas. Nothing fancy - just turn up, have a few drinks, and go home.
Date: Monday 16th December
Time: 6pm onwards
Venue: The Ship and Shovell
To be clear I've not booked anything with the pub, so no deposit is required. This also means there's no food laid on, however they do the usual pub fodder of snacks, small plates, sandwiches and burgers. If you want to eat there, I'll probably be doing so!
A List:
Flat Footed
Gladys
Flyaway
Meldy
UltraCas
Mouse
Ditchy
Golden Boots
Engineer
Funkin
Mrs Funkin
Jaffa
Cat5

The Ship & Firkin Shovel .. what sort of a pub name is that !
How many Christmas / London social threads do we need anyway ?
The ship and funkin shovel...if we must.
And to answer meldy, as many threads as you have shoes....yes that many.
Christ on a bike ... !!!
That many
Shovels, passages .. its not looking good is it
Smiffy comes off his last night shift that morning...I'm sure he'll come and fall asleep in the corner.
It's actually two bars joined by an underground passage.
I am not sure that makes it any better !!!!
I never said it did!
A monday you say ... :0
A list only?
We might stretch the entry to B List celebs too. Keep your fingers crossed
(I never thought of it like that, actually. I was using the indefinite article)
It's already sub B List, Gladys is on there
The more the merrier.
Don't worry, Gladys will probably only stay for half of it.
oh .. is he going home with GB then ??
is there room for a young newbie to tag along as well??? (work permitting of course) or will i have to be on the b list, not being a fully fledged pirate and all that?
I've taken home worse.
But you've never taken home better!
sadly - we no can do. would really love to but we'll be pretty manic that week as we're heading off to India on the 19th so need to organise things both at office and home, leaving too little time.
Banksy most definitely .... gives us old ladies something to look at
Like TheEngineer and myself aren't already enough!!
You only have eyes for each other these days
You taking your spectacles and hearing horn then, deary?! Don't leave them in a corner next to your zimmer, like last time!!
I would have thought that GB and TE would be glad of additional eye candy to spread the dreadful pirate laydee leering! I know I am...
Gladys, Gladys .... I really dont know where to start with that one.
Perhaps you could think of some last goodbyes you might like to say?
I'll make sure that anything I say is nice and loud and slow so you can hear me!!
I will say it again.Meldy is a young woman.in her prime..........just cause some of your are barely out of nappies........and Flatfooted still wearing them......
I feel I should point out that GB is the one with a pink bike.
If I can co-ordinate a work trip I may cross the border for a cultural exchange.
I'm in so I can show my mentor how much wine I can drink, am in training already.
The only culture you're likely to find around Charing Cross would grow in a petrie dish!
