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

Of course the best bit of the evening was waiting 20 minutes for pajamas to pack his bag, roll up his jeans and get ready to leave, before realising he hadn't got his lights on, unpacking to find them and wasting another ten minutes....only then to take no more than 30 seconds to nearly get wiped out at the crossroads with Kings Ave/Bedford Road...

every fucking week!

Personally I thought it was less chilling and more treating the driver like an idiot dog - "down boy. Naughty boy".

Actually you've got it spot on! It was exactly that - but I'm not sure who was taken more aback - the dozy driver, or pajamas when he realised it wasn't some ruffneck yoof trying to take him out for death race points....

And let's be clear here, until jimjams learns to leave a pub before we go through a change of at least two seasons, he won't be winning any races either....

Hang on, which girls were kissing??

Did anyone bang it out on 3G? I'll get down earlier next week

I was quite stern about it and rather hurt. And yep I did expect to get stuck in with a couple of yoots slouching in their reclined seats. Then I saw two old dears in the back and a rather sullen guy in his fifties at the wheel. I maintain he swung wildly at me in a manner befitting one of his more errant nephews.

now, regards the getting-ready-to-say-goodbye bit...

a) I was about to leave when someone (I won't name names) rolled up at ten past ten of all times, leading to another pint;
b) I was ready to go when Festus, not ready, asked me to "help him with his drink a bit" which led to another ten minutes
c) I was blinded briefly by Clefty's new front power beam when I asked her to "see if you can see it across the London sky..like batman" and had to have a moment to myself (okay this one isn't true)

all good excuses - but apologies again for keeping the wagon train waiting...

These excuses just don't wash.

But tell me, why do you have a picture of David Coulthard and the woman off one of the TV property shows wearing leeezure wear in your avatar? Hmm, answer me that, see if you can.

no murts, they were actually having a massive snog while SH was hacksawing the lock off..

it was a bit after wasn't it?

when the BC one was leaving. Girl-on-Girl action.

I was watching, but not looking like I was watching. Jageddit?

It's not wrong for a man to be turned on by two women kissing.

nope

Who's in tonight? I is. Jim I have your A to Z with me - yay!
Hoops I forgot the Swrve cap i've been promising you - lame.

very lame.

but i am a forgiving person.

so you are lucky.

I really want to show up to southies, its great.

But not tonight, josephine.

I'm in but probably bikeless, 'cos I ache a bit.

i may bring along a prototype LFGSS keyring/dangley thing if i get time to machine it.

Dude! you don't want to be machining your dangley thing!

that sounds interesting, have you been working in your underground lair perfecting something brilliant?

Oh and Hillbilly I will have a burger with your name on it for all your help on Sat.

deffinatley maybe.

I'm looking to pop in after I take a ride over Crystal Palace Hill in preparation for Sunday.

i may bring along a prototype LFGSS keyring/dangley thing if i get time to machine it.

that sounds really cool...new shiney dangly thingy... yippeee!! Alas I am too sick to contemplate biking anywere this evening. Will you post pics when / if you get it done?? please, pretty please?

just flagging up that I won't be there, as Joe kindly pointed out last night I'm getting fat. It's the drinking that's going first, then chocolate leading to carbs if that don't work, then if I'm still Tubsy Malone I will be implementing an autumn regime of purging that should see me through to Christmas Eve.

I don't wanna hear this nonsense about "yeah but just stick to soda". Pajamas don't roll like that these days and the burgers have become quite irresistible.

Apols to Bobob who I have sorely missed for weeks and now decides to come out of the pre-dad closet for one night only..we'll catch up soon dude.

sorry people, it's the last in the series of Extreme fishing and I need it in my life.

Next week for sure!

Sorry about that, Phil... I was only teasin' buddy... I need to get Scott to make me a muzzle, I don't half talk a lot of shit when I'm pissed... Gonna have to swerve tonight, having a medicinal pint in the Effra now... Feel like death... :|

shame on you Chug-it I'm even missing the first in the new series of America's Next Top Model for this!

Known fact: only short people get fat.
Excuse dismissed.

no Paul, the track day photos confirm what I already feared and Joe articulated. A week or two off the booze is where I'm at, Camber Sands this weekend..
