If he makes it...

MikeH · July 11, 2003, 09:39

He's not going to wuss out of another meeting is he?

*End Is Forever* · July 11, 2003, 09:41

He's moaning about the train fare, and he appears to have declined Rich's offer of a lift.

MikeH · July 11, 2003, 09:45

FrustratedPoet · July 11, 2003, 09:48

Well, he's already giving up a whole £30 in wages?!

What more do you guys want? Blood?!

MikeH · July 11, 2003, 09:54

Yeah. Well that and that he buys all the drinks for everyone.

Makeo · July 11, 2003, 09:55

I'll be giving up half a days if not a days work, plus spending the night in a hotel to meet you bozos.

MikeH · July 11, 2003, 10:00

I've got to tell my housemates that Rich and Iain are coming back...

*End Is Forever* · July 11, 2003, 10:06

Are we that bad...?

MikeH · July 11, 2003, 10:10

At least I can tell them the scary swede isn't coming this time.

*End Is Forever* · July 11, 2003, 10:16

No, there's a scary German instead.

Az · July 11, 2003, 10:50

Btw, what's the appropriate behavior in England when drunk?

MikeH · July 11, 2003, 10:53

Talk loudly, drink more, humiliate yourself by trying to talk to girls who put you down viciously.

Az · July 11, 2003, 10:57

Oh, no cultural adjustment needed then.

MikeH · July 11, 2003, 11:03

Talking politics and religion are, of course, banned.

Acceptable topics are girls, drinking, and how it's Boddington's round or how he's a big wuss for not coming.

*End Is Forever* · July 11, 2003, 11:06

Would yer like a flake in that, luv...?

Az · July 11, 2003, 11:06

understood.

Makeo · July 11, 2003, 11:28

are arguments over who is the better pool player allowed?

MikeH · July 11, 2003, 11:30

We can settle them over pool if we find a pub with a table. I'm really terrible. Are we playing for money?

Makeo · July 11, 2003, 11:39

hahaha not after that. duh jeez lookit that funny green table wif the funny coloured golf balls onit. i bet i'm no good at that game..........wanna play for money. ha.

MikeH · July 11, 2003, 11:41

It's a double bluff, I really am bad.

So you going to play me?

(I love the colour of money)

st_swithin · July 11, 2003, 11:42

I think anyone who took more than 2 years of physics shouldn't be allowed to play pool. It's an unfair advantage over the rest of us who can't bisect or trisect an angle on sight.

I could use a Guinness and a cigarette about now, though. And I don't even smoke. Or drink. Apparently I do both, now.

Makeo · July 11, 2003, 11:43

for a penny

MikeH · July 11, 2003, 11:54

I have a degree in physics and it doesn't help at all. It's all about experience and natural ability. Unless you take a load of scales, protractor, measuring tape and a book to do all the calculations in I don't think you'll have much luck.

Az · July 11, 2003, 11:57

I suck at pool. hard.

MikeH · July 11, 2003, 11:59

You can be on Makeo's team.

Makeo · July 11, 2003, 12:28

good hustle azazel

*End Is Forever* · July 11, 2003, 12:41

Knowing the right angle to play the shot helps you play online pool, but if you can't hit the ball in a straight line it means jack-**** in real life.

Sadly true

Solly · July 11, 2003, 13:18

Yeah because people sometimes hit a ball in a bendy line.
