Sorry I had to leave, drinkers. I ended up in the Cathouse, so let's just draw a veil over that, eh?

oof, okay, i'm home. cheers to jackmo for a right good evening. (and the rest of you, too!)

Yikes, I only awoke at 4pm. And I feel I ought to apologise for the levels of carnage reached...

A few vague memories: an art history professor screeching about being fucked by lions, a Kylie-obsessed hairdresser with a veritable pharmacopeia in his pockets, a lady persistantly offering to give me a blow job in my kitchen, and Marquis plotting to become 'the friendly face of cannibalism' in order to solve the pensions crisis. Also, there was some manner of Canadian ex-pat face-off. Sarge no doubt even more eager to attend the Glasgow School of Art now.

More pics.

Roll on the next Scottish meetup, I say.

Today is the proudest day of my life. Finally, I am somebody.

I'm now reading your comments in my head with a heavy Scottish brogue, and it's great. Carry on.

Um....where are the kilts? This post sucks.

If Jack had been wearing a kilt I think the girl in the kitchen would have gotten further.

Two observations:

1. It is very dark in Scotland.

2. There aren't very many women in Scotland.

I'll post my conclusions when I reach them.

Easy, take the left to lame assumption, then it's just a jump from there.

I think he's talking about the pics (which are very noir considering the eyeball-searing flash on Jack's phone) rather than the girl in the kitchen, eriko

Hahaha. That were fun. I'm now regretting deciding to head home from the Art School at 2, instead of hanging around for further debaucheries. Incidentally, I just met said pharmacopeia-equipped hairdresser down at Optimo. And he said: "too much of that music which sounds like records skipping, and not enough Kylie."

So when's the next meetup?

What pub was that? It looks like a good time was had by all. I will attend the next one if I can. Relative newbie at posting but been lurking for years. BTW I know Bonaldi from somewhere...

Eep, forgot about that. Or blocked it out.
posted by jack_mo at 8:48 AM on December 13, 2005

I thought it was the Ship. A great wee pub. Especially with some munchies. Noticed the Laphroaig in the pics too.

Yes I am a guy. No stories, just recognise your face from the Flickr pics- probably frequent the same boozers- Glasgow being so wee and all. I dont know you or anything though.

My profile will be updated very soon for all other weedgie-based Mefites to peruse.
