I must join you some Thursday, before they knock the place.

I'd have to stay in Maida Vale though. Couldn't be trekking back to Reading at that time of night.

**paul_oshea** · 01/07/2005, 8:44 AM

Just a place to get my head down while I'm in London.
It's actually down market compared to my place in Reading.

So was there any craic last night?
Did my good old Yoga master turn up?

Nah I go lost in central Landaaaan trying to find the Comedy Store for a works night out. Also had that thing of needing a slash so I had to go to a pub to use the toilets and of course had to have a pint so I was walking around and half hour later of course I need another slash, so on it went.

Got to the Comedy Store three hours late!

Was it good?
I was suggesting that we all meet up for something like that one night.
Could be good craic, so long as Paul doesn't get on stage and start singing, again.

Time to share my thousand post with you all.

No it was very quite, just done the usual, chewed over Euro 88, Italia 90, USA 94 and Japan/Korea and at closing time made the now often mistake of going into the pub down the road from Raffs that has become the norm for a late drink.

Mind you the Rossie was well behaved, no drinking at all from him.

Sure he'd spent all his money on a pink shirt.

Ooooop north, I'm afraid, and drink is out of the question for the night.

I have no idea I only seen the last ten minutes of the last comedian, you know yourself a night out is wasted on me sometimes.
But reports about the comedians were good. �15 a ticket 4 comedians so not to bad. The bitter was rubbish (�3 a pint) so I hate to think how bad the lager was like. Ended up in O' Neills fiver to get in for one bloody pint then got fed up cause the music was loud and crap and I couldn't hold a conversation. Must remind myself that no matter how much I want a late scoop I'd rather drink ropey cans of Carling at home then subject myself to that.

**paul_oshea** · 01/07/2005, 10:25 AM

pa went to one of those in camden its the well known one can think of it, was very good, very funny night, but all comedians materials are generally the same...repetitive and always crude.

**Peadar** · 01/07/2005, 10:42 AM

Paul, are you coming to St. Katharine's Dock for lunch?
Anyone else who wants to come along is welcome.
A train derailed at Hammersmith this morning and caused severe delays on the Hammersmith line and delays on the Circle and District lines.
Not sure if things are running smoothly again yet though.

**paul_oshea** · 01/07/2005, 10:46 AM
