North Drinks. Every Week, Wednesday 6pm - The Maynard N8

I can't believe Michael Winner has died!!

No rocks in my TNWC. No claret either, although there was some brief blue language to accompany the brown briefs.

I'm really sorry about starting this whole whisky thing.

Hic

ouch, did you manage to face plant yourself into the road or are you still the same ugly bugger as before?

No and yes. Thanks for your concern.

Oh well never mind, you're welcome

@M5k - was this pretty much our ride-out route?

Brun - well done on staying rubber side down!

another unofficial suggestion (following the way-points to Norths idea of yesterday: York Bridge, The Spaniards):

a Northians WhatsApp group, :-)

PM me your phone number to get involved!

(last nights survey at the pub showed that few active Northians are likely to actually use this app - but just in case....!)

Howard - yep that's pretty much our route - a bit more through Regents Park - main issue is that it doesn't go up Swains!

There's an alternate twist where just after the 5k mark you go from along Cressy Rd, then Savernake then cross into Parliament Hill Fields cycle path which delivers you to the bottom of Swains!

The trouble with What's App is that bloody annoying whistle alert thing.

You can change that Mikey.

I only use whatsapp for receiving weird videos from my boss.

whats whatsapp?

is it modern technology? will it ever replace pigeaons?

Hahaha. I actually googled the same thing this morning!

Uhm....think I'll stay where I am thanks. Can you imagine being woken in the night by the ghost of Michael Winner?!!!

would recommend against a group whatsapp group. get ready to check your phone after a day to see 74 unread messages

what about the up-side?!

(namely - an easier way to check if anybody has already left or is already at the Flask! - amongst other uppy things!)

my favourite way of seeing who is already there is by going along and seeing who is already there.

call me old skool but hey, I'm funny like that.

^ yep - Ride up hill, have beer, chat to Northengers/ read the paper and savour the vibes until other Northengers turn up.

unless it's a TNRC week, obviously

alright! - my quest for a 'WhatsApp Northians? Group' is at a rest!

(until the future-proof yoof start attending!!)

((can Indra Ripster cycle uphill yet?!))

I plan to keep my crown as the youngest norths drinker.

will fight for crown.

and what ramseye and 5k said.

i hate technology

Or bring your ipad and sit at the bar watching telly on it.
