2009-01-24 Sat - The Tweed Run I

This is my first ride in London and it would be nice to meet up with a few guys/girls beforehand. Anyone going for a pre-ride beer or coffee between Kings Cross and the meet-up, and wouldn't mind some extra company?

Mr. Skully! It would indeed be a terrible shame if your fine self and your Mercian were not to join us on such an event.

Can't wait for the ride and looking forward to meeting all of you. Just got here last week from Chicago. Cheers!

Mr. Skully! It would indeed be a terrible shame if your fine self and your Mercian were not to join us on such an event.

Your comment is recieved with the gratitude it truly deserves, with decorum yet my passionate agreement thereof, and I shall endeavour to reflect this sentiment and this encouragement in any further discourse I may enter into with Mrs Skully regarding the events that shall unfold this week's end.

(can you tell I'm reading Sense & Sensibility at the moment?)

I knew this kind of nonsense would happen when they started letting ladies into the snug bar, Thin end of the wedge old bean

Give her a slap and wipe down the Mercian, skull of kintyre - you're DEFINITELY coming down.

I am smiling at that image, Big Red Man.

ew.

I say, what japes are those young turks at nike up to

Flip! Especially for this ride? WOW. Teddy you got some contacts baby.

Me, Mrs L and Clever Pun will be warming up at The Windmill on Windmill Street at 1pm which is right round the corner from Hannover Square. A delightful hostelry which does cracking food as well if people feel that way inclined.

All welcome to join us!

Just round the corner? do you mean Gt Windmill st?

Just round the corner? do you mean Gt Windmill st?

My mistake...I meant MILL STREET! Which is directly opposite Saville Row across Conduit Street.

The Windmill is just on the left hand side.

thank heavens for couriers

Yes indeed!

My complete lack of sense of direction doesn't bode well for me getting a job doing that though eh?!

It never stopped me; and now I own two houses in Islington and bought the wife a £2000 mink coat for Xmas.

Bang!

Flip! Especially for this ride? WOW. Teddy you got some contacts baby.

They are quite a few seasons old now, nothing to do with the ride.

Bang!

And the dirt is gone.

Bigging up Bonk's caps here. Came today through the mail. Love it, perfect fit and looks the poodle's giblets! Green lining is particularly pimp might I add.
Thanks a bunch!!

Is that what the wife will be wearing on Saturday?

I think I need some career advice from you!

Is that what the wife will be wearing on Saturday?

I bloody hope not, it'll give Mrs Littigator ideas above her station...or above my wallet at least

Anyone wanting any plus fours taking to North Drinks let me know and i will bring them along!

hi jd,

any chance of bringing a pair of 32' breeks to easts tonight ?

I'm in! Dammit why is my Tweed Suit at my folks house in Sussex? They're away so no chance of getting it sent up in time, dammit.
