The Great North Dissensus Pub Session

[IdleRich]

Cpuld of got a hotel room for thst!

Which Oxford hotel near Cowley Road should I have checked into at 4am, The Randolph?

And they would have kicked me out in a few hours anyway. Taxi was better option.

When I came back from Lisbon the other day there were no coaches back to Oxford from Gatwick for hours and so I spent the night in Quality Inn, cost more than a ton. They kept hassling me to check out next day but I fought back by sleeping until 2pm.

On the other side of the Pennines, I'll probably go to this:

[Slothrop]

Oh, no I won't, it's sold out already.

 

[Slothrop]

I'll be going to see Vibracathedral at Shakespeare's a couple of days later, though.

 

[catalog]

Sack all that off and come to Manchester.

 

[catalog]

Or K-Billy can dj?

I'm afraid to say that this event was interrupted by 4D machine elves who spirited my pouch of tobacco away into another dimension

after shifting furniture and patting pockets we made haste to the legendary P3 where they announced "we don't serve rum!"

I had to make do with shots of double sake

still, I had fun

 

[william_kent]

@catalog should be able to confirm that we witnessed transdimensional effects

 

[IdleRich]

How many people were at the great meet up?

 

[luka]

2. it's never been higher than 2. 2 is the record.

 

[william_kent]

2: still great

@IdleRich and @Murphy should have been there, but "reasons"

we can still make this happen

if @luka can persuade @woops to risk "up North" then we can wreak havoc and change the timeline

 

[IdleRich]

Should have minutes recording all the attendees, matters arising and so on.

 

[william_kent]

"POINT OV ORDER!"

 

[william_kent]

on exiting p3 we bumped into my 'fake daughter" and @catalog gave her bad directions to a venue neither of us knew anything of, but he did direct the fake niece of the drummer of famed ANARCHO PUNK BAND CONFLICT to the location my of fake daughter who was about 10 feet away, and we all waved at each other, so all cool

 

[IdleRich]

What's a fake daughter?

 

[william_kent]

What's a fake daughter?

it is complicated, I don't really want to get into it

 

[william_kent]

it was a confusing evening all around

a pouch of tobacco evaporated from a table and it just got stranger from that moment on

 

[william_kent]

what sort of venue announces "WE DON'T SERVE RUM" !!!! ?????

 

[luka]

as soon as kent walks in the door, staff scrabbling to hide the wray and neph NO WE DON'T SELL RUM HERE over the PA system

 

[william_kent]

I was out of place for sure, I mentioned to @catalog "I don't have a hat"

there was a guy with a baseball hat embroidered with "BUXTON"

MIDDLE CLASS OPERA FESTIVAL FOR THE WIN

lol

I immediately rejected the venue as a potential INJECTION SITE rave

no rum is automatically a NO

edit: I did share with @catalog a story about how I enquired about the availability of the limited edition Dealy Plaza JFK assasination limousine from a model shop in Manchester and was required to leave the premises before the police were called

"WE DO NOT SELL CONSPIRACY RELATED MODELS!"

"PLEASE LEAVE OR I WILL CALL THE POLICE!"
