South East beers - Tuesdays @ The Roebuck, SE1 4YG

Homeless. Really? You think there wouldn't have been any offers of help or spare rooms?

I agree that it is worrying though.

Yeah cos no one ever offered.

I'm just going to appear and laugh at Chainie and avoid his hugs.

In pub so will be brief.

The Albert has agree to give us decent discounts on food and possibly drink. Details to be agreed on Tuesday. By the sounds of it there will be big discounts on their snack platters, smaller discounts on burgers and 30 or 40p off beer. Levels of discount subject to agreement but the landlord has agreed in principle.

also, I think if you're having to stay in friends' spare rooms and on sofas and the like, you're homeless. you may not be sleeping in doorways, but you still have no stability/privacy/security and nowhere to put your stuff.

will add 'dan = goddamn hero' to thread tags, even though no-one can see them unless they're using v3.

I'mma gonna eat so many snack platters

I do appreciate that. Its not nice.

Personally, if I had a choice between a flat/room of my own that didn't meet all of my requirements and worrying about being homeless I'd choose the former.

I'm bitterly cynical about this from personal experience so I apologise for being a dick. For all I know, there may be no rental properties available at the moment.

michael, reply to text. I don't know where you live and I'm about to leave :)

Dan that's fucking huge. 30/40p off pints and discounted food is a huge result. Whoop!

buy a copy of the sun, shove that down the front of the dash. discard a few mcdonalds bags and burger boxes along the top, wind down the window and say caaaaaant alot and and you'll fit right in.

Vanist.

Completely correct. The legal definition of homelessness is much wider than just rough sleeping. (sorry...I do this kind of stuff for a job)

^ Expert.

So....any strong feelings about the Albert? What did people think of the burgers?

I liked it. The burger was bloody good. Seriously, I'm fussy about burgers, and I was surprised. That is a serious burger. Really delicious. Unfortunately the chips were slightly undercooked, I think the kitchen was busy and they were rushing to get food out a bit. I would rather have waited another minute or two. Undercooked chips are eminently fixable though, especially as the staff are all so nice and the service good.

A nice selection of well kept, not unreasonably priced beers. The Longitude was excellent. And they have Brew Dog! Shame about the football, but a table reserved at the back would have dealt with that. I look forward to next week when we have a reserved table and there shouldn't be footie on.

A lot of people have mentioned the A2, the noise didn't seem to bother anyone when everyone happily decamped outside at one point. I think Reeeeeeeeen's point about it not being nice to ride down is more valid. And come summer it will actually be warm! But the park looks good anyway.

Well done Dan on the negotiations.

hi.

Unfortunately the chips were slightly undercooked

Unlucky. I had chipses here a couple of months ago & they were lush.

I'm happy to lend a bit of limp muscle to the collective effort...

Iain already has one of those.

So I'm told...

discounts on beer you say?!

nice one dan

looking forward to trying the food too

(in case it wasn't obvious, previous post wasn't in immediate reply to you - slow phone posting)

If anyone wants to borrow my zipcar card tomorrow I will be in Camden all day. And not on a bike after my hateful tire exploded on the way home this evening. Loooooong walk home :(

Are you ok?!?!?!

Anyone being me for the card??

pretty please

I'm ok but it's not doing wonders for my anxiety levels. Everytime I get on a bike something goes wrong.

Didn't fall off though. BE IMPRESSED.

Anyone being you or OSR.

Dont worry, its the same for all of us :-)

And thank you! Ill organise with OSR tomorrow.

Iain, let me know what's going on tomorrow as I'm mostly free and happy to help.

Dont worry, its the same for all of us :-)

Cool beans, let me know tomorrow.

^^did michael get moved alright?
