    LOL! I'll do my best, but despite all my diesel torques I'll sadly be at the mercy of the fickle M4.

    18.30 I think is a realistic estimate

    I'd like to get to condor to pick up an insurance quote but it's not that important as I can pick it up tomorrow (while giving me an excuse to cycle a bit more)

    MM you're welcome without your bike of course.. what sort of time can you get there? (I need someone to look after my bike if I'm going to get a beer before brun turns up

    Looks about right. Then you just have to walk round checking out people's shoes.

    Just to make your life more difficult, there always seems to be a roadie in there who's nowt to do with us.

    TFL says I can get there in 44 mins from here so 6.30 is not a prob at all. I am of course old enough to get beers from pubs - especially with my comic facial hair atm so you can keep stroking yer bike lovingly that little bit longer if need be :)

    You'll be in good company. I'll be there for 6.30 or shortly afterwards.

    Living up to your name? Well, not really...

    Yeah, I really quite fancy a morpeth pint. It's just my startling inability to just have one that's an issue.

    I've decided not to drink in the flat for the time being, in a half-hearted attempt to cut down a bit.

    Would you believe I'm spending more time in the pub?

    No; he being a she makes a mess of it though.

    Kings Cross .. you know ... home of the urban prostitute ... maybe his present was to have been a free trick ... pretend you don't know each other ... thrill of the forbidden and all that ....

    Oh never mind. These things never work that well when yon have to explain them syllable by syllable.

    Now I really will duck, get coat, and run away. I think the need to is more pressing now.

    Pffftt. I'm bored of the Morpeth, we should go to the Cask; it has a constantly changing choice of Ale and a rather affable Landlord. Also has a stonking range of German bottled beers. Does lack in bike parking though...

    Also no slightly stalky barmaids.

    That was completely unintentional...

    I might be able to do tonight as well as long as there are a few later drinkers around, got a few at work first
