Title: Re: the friday night thread Post by: Simon Pieman on Friday, February 20, 2009, 19:36:05 If you wear your glasses tomorrow you'll soon realise just how bad your vision was before. I always put it down to excess beer before, but when I went to a couple of games in a row sober I knew my eyes were fucked.
I'm staying in and being boring again. Title: Re: the friday night thread Post by: suttonred on Friday, February 20, 2009, 19:36:26 I'm going to watch Appoloosa or Mongol, sink a few tinnies and then play poker later, not going tomorrow as spent too much on footie last couple of weeks, but wish i was, now we are starting to look good. Seems like at home quaffing is the order of the evening, be interesting to see how the thread degenerates later!

£180 for glasses?!?! if you want sunglasses or a spare pair, i suggest searching around the internet for them. I've found opticians to be a right old rip off for both glasses and contact lenses:) Title: Re: the friday night thread Post by: Miss Angry on Friday, February 20, 2009, 20:09:46 Revs is the worst place in the world if you're under 30.

I tend not to think about it at the weekend. If sausage and chips finishes me off, so be it :) Title: Re: the friday night thread Post by: ronnie21 on Friday, February 20, 2009, 20:30:10 £180 for glasses?!?! if you want sunglasses or a spare pair, i suggest searching around the internet for them.

My neighbour has just had an expensive visit to the dentist, he's shit scared of them so goes to the Anasethetic Town in Old Town. Cost him £997 for his treatment!!Title: Re: the friday night thread Post by: Sussex on Friday, February 20, 2009, 20:31:52 Does Birdy really eat spam fritters? Yes, don't see the appeal myself! I did let her have half my battered sausage though. Title: Re: the friday night thread Post by: Reg Smeeton on Friday, February 20, 2009, 20:33:51 Yes, don't see the appeal myself!

Title: Re: the friday night thread Post by: Reg Smeeton on Friday, February 20, 2009, 21:06:04 CURRY!!!! I can never eat curry without drinking quantities of lager....problem is if I eat too much curry, then there's not enough room for lager.....so the easy solution is not to bother eating the curry and just drink the lager. Title: Re: the friday night thread Post by: Samdy Gray on Friday, February 20, 2009, 21:21:59 No drinking tonight :( Saving it for tomorrow.
Tuna pasta bake and Ramsey's Kitchen Nightmares. Happy days. Title: Re: the friday night thread Post by: DV on Friday, February 20, 2009, 21:23:00 I've just woken up so I must have fallen asleep at some point...

Title: Re: the friday night thread Post by: flammableBen on Friday, February 20, 2009, 23:46:36 A bash at Cave Story for me I think, haven't completed it for a while. One of the best free games ever made, and one of the best games of the last 5 years full stop.
I recommend a download and a play if you haven't done so before... http://www.cavestory.org/index.php Title: Re: the friday night thread Post by: strooood on Saturday, February 21, 2009, 00:00:30 Straight from office to snooker hall. played a load of frames and ended up in some bar in kings cross. drank loads of beer now i', home watching Ricky Gervais on C4+1.

Good times Jeez didn't know chiquitos wa still there, must go back as cant still be barred.Title: Re: the friday night thread Post by: axs on Saturday, February 21, 2009, 01:18:18 I finished work today and went to the pub to meet some friends. We decided to put two coins in our hands and then hold up a certain amount (nought, one or two) in our hands to see which train we would catch, it was 1 (meaning we would get the first train). We then did the same to see how many stops we would go, it was two - this meant Reading.
So I had a couple of drinks on the way to Reading, and then a few pubs in Reading, including saying hello to mad karaoke chav pub and police sniffer dog. Then got the train to Pangbourn, found a nice little pub, very lively. Had a 30 year old gin, no idea why. then got the train to Goring and Streetly, found another pub to play 'I have never' and have a couple more drinks. Sang a few Swindon songs and met some randoms on the platform for Didcot, went to the pub with them before getting the last train back to Swindon. I am now quite drunk and covered in biro messages. Not sure why. Title: Re: the friday night thread Post by: Reg Smeeton on Saturday, February 21, 2009, 03:30:42 Saw Miss Angry earlier which was a pleasure.

Title: Re: the friday night thread Post by: nochee on Saturday, February 21, 2009, 10:15:36 Im as rough as fuck after my wine and cheese evening.
I think someone broke in to my apartment and trashed the place too, i dont remember it looking this bad when i went to bed! Title: Re: the friday night thread Post by: Simon Pieman on Saturday, February 21, 2009, 11:00:58 I realised yesterday that the clock in Swindon town centre (the millennium clock) has stopped at the same time as the one in the tower at Reading train station.
It's moments like that when you realise you need to get out more (away from clocks mostly). Title: Re: the friday night thread Post by: leefer on Saturday, February 21, 2009, 11:03:14 Some would say that time stood still in Swindon and Reading years ago.
