Missing the pub? 20:09 - Mar 18 with 2943 viewsbluelagos

Chatting to a mate earlier and our monthly catch ups over a pint aint going to happen.

He suggested we (there's around 6 of us) have a cyber pint by skype. We all get a couple of cans in and crack em open over a group skype chat.

We could have just solved the riddle of social distancing and people's needs for social interaction :-)

I'd love a binge on Shooting Stars right about now. I'll have to dig up some episodes online.

finally you post something sensible.

And so as the loose-bowelled pigeon of time swoops low over the unsuspecting tourist of destiny, and the flatulent skunk of fate wanders into the air-conditioning system of eternity, I notice it's the end of the show

Well Dyland used to do it a bit on here.

Then more recently Lucan took over.

Don't tell Lucan, but the service was a bit more cooperative under Dylers.

You order pretty much anything from Lucan and you get Stella regardless.

You're late to the party - we had one last week on zoom.

Doesn't mean it's not a fabulous idea and that you shouldn't be proud for thinking of it.

Yeah but you don't want kids in there really. They should be banned.

It was my mates idea, but yeah, does seem really appropriate given the issues of meeting in person.

Zoom any better than Skype or Whatssapp?

On Charlie Brooker's brilliant TVGoHome site there was one programme called 'Barfly Buddies'.

The description was something like: Retired Sgt Major Joe Bloggs challenges home drinkers to match him scotch for scotch as he recounts ever increasingly horrific stories from the front line.

Sounds ideal.

He also kept me waiting for three pages while serving people that came in after me.

Yes I remember the days of waving your 5 pound note about in the hope of some attention from the bar staff.

They were usually fecking useless and just served whoever was closest.

Lucan's approach reminds me a bit of the Swan back in the day.

"A vodka and orange juice please. But juice please, not that squash or whatever it was you gave me last time.

I don't mind paying more for the real thing".


*Gets given squash - or whatever it was like the last time*
