Ha, it was a beautiful sight: Justin and Craigy bashing the crap out of each other and tussling in the middle of the road one minute, then hugging each other the next. Baldy man love - can't be beat.

Wasn't in Moshulu but apparently he kept having to ask folk if he'd already played that song.

Oh good lord!

Awful. I actually quite like her and I think 'Thank God I'm Pretty' which is further down on the player is ace but this is shite. It sounds like a William Shatner song or something.

My boyfriend and I are going to Edinburgh for a night or two next week and trying to find somewhere nice but reasonable to stay, preferably in the Old Town. I've had a look on Google but there's hundreds out there and I've no idea where to start.

Any recommendations?

Back to the topic...

Don't suppose anyone knows who it was who was stabbed? I hate hearing that people in my age group have been attacked or injured but not named, I instantly think it's someone I know, especially in that area of town. A few of the bouncers at Snafu are Polish...any link, anyone know?

This thread past me by the first time round, but two thumbs up for pure entertainment value. Although that's probably more down to Alan's relentless punning than the original topic.

Just got me wondering what Dow does all day. My curiosity has been awakened, I want answers! Someone make a Wikipedia entry about the chap.

I probably won't go to this but Thrashist Regime is a fantastic name for a band.

I agree, gives me a warm fuzzy feeling everytime I say it. Although it normally takes a few goes. Not the easiest thing to say after a few drinks...

In all fairness, I only saw one girl turn away. Well, not turn away, but hold something up in front of her face. The rest were fucking loving it.

Why the fuck i decided walking around with a hoodie as a mini-skirt for an hour is beyond me.

Miss Moorings would be fucking yaldie. But I would not be taking part.

Im gonna work out for next year.

It was probably a camera

yeah, I wouldn't imagine they'd have the same phone mnumber as they did before. You're already on the internet...how hard is it to google questions like this?

It wasn't just the first row *shakes head*

Awesome night though, fucking great atmosphere. Can we expect a Miss Moorings contest to follow up? Probably featuring Teabags in drag...?

can we use blacktooth flyers for this? And if not what's the doorcharge?

Been an expensive weekend.

Various tickets to shows at Edinburgh Fringe

a rather spiffy handbag and dress (although apparently 'one size fits all' doesn't cover colour variations. I tried on the red, it fitted. Bought the black and it didn't)

a gift for the boyfriend

electric bill. Boohiss

It's not a good sign when I got paid on Friday and I'm already trying to calculate how much I'll get payday But it was worth it

In no particular order

The Princess Bride

Chasing Amy

Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind

Little Miss Sunshine

Secretary

Fargo

Brick

Spirited Away

City Of God

The Shining

There's a place in the market. And didn't One Up have rolling mats and pipes downstairs for a while? But it depends what you're looking for I suppose.

lol at the end of the night all you could do was laugth tbh lol

At the end of the night I was supporting aforementioned drunken twat (and his guitar) going down Union Street trying to stop him from falling into traffic. And he's a lanky bugger too, 6ft4 or so of drunk Justin versus 5ft 6 of drunken me...

actually yeah, it probably was pretty amusing

the whole line up seemed plagued with technical diffculties. Although I suspect Bloodnut's problems were mostly because Justin was twatted

In the Bassment last night getting paid to drink (!) and eyeing up the laydees with a glint in his eye...or that could have been the cider.

Basically in his element

Utterly fucked up, and I know it sounds daft but you don't really hear about Canada in terms of gratuitous violence so it seems a lot worse.

Gah. Reminds me of the Jasper Carrott sketch 'When you're on the bus...does the nutter sit next to you?'

I completely agree with you, I'd never even heard that this had happened and it's disgusting. How on earth did it take so long for that article to be written.

Admittedly I'm not as up on current affairs as I should be and never have been, but even so.

fixed...

Yawn.

Good on you Greg, it is good to see wee alternative stores and such like popping up.

city seagulls are completely malicious, they look like they know they're protected and that there's really bugger all you can do about them. Smug bastards.

It's true though, it is our fault that it's got to this stage. I was sitting outside Chi a few weeks ago and watched a couple actually feeding 3 huge fuck off gulls the remains of their food. Who the hell does that?! It's bad enough up there with the damned things flying around and eating food off the plates that the barstaff leave outside for hours without people feeding them on purpose.

I feel sorry for pigeons though, they look so grubby and stupid sometimes. Plus the females seem to get a raw deal - pigeon rape is rife in Aberdeen.

Winner! Love the Conchords. I've been watching and downloading clips for the last few months and finally bought the DVD on the weekend.

Everyone I've met who likes them thinks they're the only one, it's ace. You can be in the middle of a conversation, drop in a random quote which you're sure is going to be ignored and they say the next bit back. Love it.

'I'm not crying, I've just been chopping some onions. I'm making a lasagne...for one'

Yup, Dominos is the shiz. Always tasty, always scalding hot when it's delievered and with Snapfax discount it's a bit of a bargain.

Toppings wise I usually got for roast chicken, green peppers, black olives and sometimes anchovies. Only fault with Dominos is that the anchovies are huge and can be a bit over powering.

59...which is weird because I thought I was a bit more ruthless than that.

I'm inclined to say Motorcity Brags because they sound arrogant as fuck and I reckon that they'd turn out to be pussies when faced with the crowd (and booze) in The Moorings.

Although the songs aren't loading for me, so I'll reserve judgement. I like the sound of something rockabilly though.

Back at the spiritual home, yas!
