Shy?  Classic spotty adolescent behaviour.  Saint Lucy would eat a
wimp like Hugh for breakfast.

No, Tag.

Violence may be the only solution.

There's actually an ever increasing number of such places all over the
city centre, all basically the same.  All playing Massive Attack or
variations on that theme.

A bit far.

>> British Protection - gay pub but really nice

Briton's Protection.  Is it gay?  Smog played there a while ago, and
that wasn't gay in any sense of the word.  It's minute, but it's good
and pubby.

Square Albert gets my vote.

Does that mean full of cable-knit sweaters discussing their pints of
Roger's Old Smegma.  'I like a pint wi' dead flies in it'.  Give me
lager any day.  Well not today, anyone who was on line at 12.30 lst
night will know the state I was in.  Never again.

I'm sure Dina could tell you about the Lass.

Fisting in the bogs?  And felching in the marshes.

There are lots of places to eat nearby, too many to list.

Yes, this is true.  It is a bit far, and the possibilities of ending
up somewhere a bit dodgy are plentiful.

Paul, you're so crazy.

Damn right.

Looks like all go for the after show disco dancing extravaganza.
Learn the mashed potato, the madison, the hustle.  The best dancer
gets a snog from me, the worst gets one from Julian.  And anyone who
won't dance gets fisted in the bogs by Hugh.  Details to follow
tomorrow or as soon as I've spoken to the elusive promoter man.

My hangover is now clear and I love everyone again.  Unless they
support Middlesboro.

Bye

Love
