South London Beers: Reboot - Last Thursday of the Month at The Prince Regent, Herne Hill, SE24

See you later with Mattz

As recommended by C&D last week I will make a concerted effort to save on heating costs ie. this evening I will buy some Rapha softshell trousers.

Is that a saving?

How is arse-rape for a man-made fibre a saving?

Am happily ensconced in the half moon don't leave me hanging good people. Not sure I can eat two pizzas by myself...

You seemed to be doing alright...

Thought I would get this in early then perhaps some of you might be tempted to come. I will not be at the next drinks because I will be setting up an screening the October show of the HBFS https://www.lfgss.com/thread94338.html

Zebra enjoy the screening, for the rest of you, we will be at the cambria this Monday!
The Cambria, loughborough junction.
See you all there from 7ish

Bump!

Will be there round 7, not planing to stay very late though...

L

Probably more like 8.30 for me....will check the thread to check people are still around

I am here and might be getting food, two courses for a tenner...
Mmmmmhh

Good to see folks tonight, including some rare attendees.

Loved christening the temporary new Souths venue last night. Good beer, food and above all company. I was also impressed by the friendly service, including table ordering of beer. Nice.

Slight downer that I managed to crash outside the pub, snapping my derailleur hanger, two spokes and grazing me all over. Ouch. Cue walking home with my, thankfully light, road bike over my shoulder.

Thanks for the help guys. See you soon.

Join the dots.

The dots are so close together that the line is nearly as short as the one from where he started to where he fell off.

And then join these dots you plastic dustpan & brush bike riders.

PS hope you're not too hurt Mashton!

it was the metal components that snapped! (spokes and hanger)

Another good evening at South(East)s.

It had the feel of sit-com writing, when Loic left and there was the surpise arrival of Mashton, taking up Loic's seat and talking about Kenny Everett and Steptoe and Son, just as we had with Loic.

Owen, having also just arrived, you might have found our response perplexing!

Hope it is just the gear hanger and spoke, Matt:
Also sure you carried home the full carbon weight at full arm extension above your head, as in your avatar.

Looking forward to next week.

The bars are bent too, so I am replacing them. South drinks are more expensive than Chelsea.

What happened? You clumsy fucker!

The Cambira is very close to home for me and would have loved to have popped in - if nothing else than to have met some locals. I am new to South London after all.

Sadly, the reality of getting my flat into a liveable state took precedent - that struggle continues.....

Hopefully, I should make future gatherings - are there any thoughts for next week?

I'm sure it's intended to be the Coach and Horses on Mon 15th, Mr Jackal.

Tbh, all this venue-swapping can be detrimental to a good turnout.
Yes I enjoyed the Cambria, even to the extent of ordering a sticky toffee pudding (!) but the menu is never a clincher for me: any pub food costs more than I feel I can spend.

I can manage on a packet of fig rolls until I'm home for proper food. (that's HTFRU).

I think we should stick it out with the C+H for the next little while.

Damn, the rear mech was also funked. Ultegra. This is turning into the most expensive pint in history.

@smiff - I bunny hopped off the top of a speed platform and, for some unknown reason, lost control of the handlebars when landing.

Me dickhead.

"some reason"

How many had you had?
