Ah right Ted. I was in Aberystwyth on the 20th, you see. That would have been a mad co-incidence.

A week... and this was posted on the 27th.

Bally hell, you weren't in Aberystwyth on the 20th were you?

Yeah, I love The Skydome. Great for seeing fighting. I was due to be their Friday just gone, but the boxing was moved to Wolves Civic at the last minute.

I saw Misawa there (and Doug Williams, now I mention it) myself many a-year ago.

(p.s. LAAAAARRRIIIIIOOTTTOOOOO and so forth).

Who was there, then? And what was the big-head-drop count?

That's alright then. Long as it's nothing life-threatening.

Happy anniversary for yesterday.

"it's the cultural background radiation we're all exposed to throughout our lives"

'White Knowledge', as Terry Pratchett has it.

Having said that, I only knew 'first man on the moon' out of your six illustrative factettes, there. But then again I wouldn't complain about losing a pub quiz, and would (nay, in the past have) accept it as an inevitable consequence of Being A Bit Saft.

Not tea-specific, but still. Your campaign a-grows.

Blimey Jez, you didn't have to play if you didn't want to.

I currently have 18 unread too, aside from the two I'm reading at the moment.

I'm glad I'm not as badly off as I might be with this.

Would it be too glib to suggest that the simple solution to that is to NOT "dump out two year olds in front of TV... and then ignore them"?

Reasonable enough, ta. I had that cold, but I do like Christmas.

Only eleven-and-a-half months to the next one.

Whofore else?

I have never seen this done, though, in any licensed establishment. They always have a stupid machine that either doesn't work or doesn't know how to be worked by any of those a-working. Presumably there must be a reason why they haven't all decided to catch the nearest way.

Ice-cream is acceptable to me.

Nuts to tea and coffee in pubs. Absolute nuts to them and their tendency to take a barman out of comission for about ten minutes while they fiddle with those tea/coffee machine thingies.

Bah.

A ticket may be for the best, then.

You certainly seem to know everyone. It's the impression I've gathered, anyway.
Added to The Coffee Grounds on 06:34, 03 Oct 2007

I'd really recommend that you get a ticket for the Pram gig, if you're thinking of going. I understand they're on their way to disappearing.

This is, of course, assuming that you don't know people who'll get you in irrespective of whether or not it's sold out. Knowing you, you probably do.

Hyuck hyuck. I never said the man was stupid.

Is JBL doing commentary frequently now, or was that a one-off?

I tell you what, Jez - I have a pile of pro-wrestling stuff I could do with getting rid of (for space reasons). Ebay is too much fuss and I'd rather give it away to someone who would actually be interested (rather than just taping 'Eastenders' over it). It's mostly copied VHS, but with some original VHS/copied DVDs/original DVDs. There's a fair mix of Japanese stuff, American indies, mainstream American stuff, a bit of Mexican stuff etc.

All free, if you can take it off my hands. I don't mind sticking it in a bin bag and bringing it to a pub in town if needs be. I can type up a list if that's absolutely necessary, but for giving it away for free that sounds like too much fuss to me. There's some obvious stuff (J-Cup etc, AAA When Worlds Collide etc), some less obvious stuff (various sundry non-big NJPW events), some stuff somewhere between the two (a five video Misawa compilation), and loads else too.

Interested? Email me at the RussLStylee that happens to be at the Yahoo of the dot com if you don't want to talk about it here.

Hurrah for actual common sense rather than "Harrumph harrumph you can't take away my inalienable right to tell 'em all to go home and stop taking our jobs/to burn effigies of Catholics" common sense.
