Bletch and Fowllyd's big night out

OK, muthafuckas, the great Bletch* and I have hit upon the novel idea of going out and drinking beer. A radical and ground-breaking thought, yes - controversial even - but I do feel that those who are more forward-thinking will be able to put aside their preconceptions and accept this new concept into their lives.

At present, we have a known known and at three known unknowns. There may be unknown unknowns, but we simply don’t know. To elucidate:

The known known is that this event willl take place on the evening of Friday the 30th December.

The first known unknown is the venue. This may be the Hyde Tavern on Hyde Street in WInchester, or possibly the Wagon Works in Eastleigh (or Eagle Shit, or The Silage, depending on your preference). This depends in part on whether Bletch and I can be arsed getting a train to and from Winchester.

The second known unknown is the exact time. This is relatively unimportant.

The third known unknown is who will be in attendance, apart from Bletch and me.

To summarise: the good point will be an evening of drinking beer, be it in Eastleigh or Winchester. The had point is entirely obvious from the thread title and contents.

*This is, as you will all realise, a shocking example of over-politeness on my part. But what the fuck, it’s Christmas.

Let’s just make it the 30th, as I put in my original post. Pedantic wanker.

I’ll probably be in the Hyde Tavern anyway. Will say hello if I see you. I’ll be the one in the toilet.

Is there graffiti on the wall that says?

If you want to have Fun With Words, get in touch.

The only graffiti in there is about my bum.

I might be there depending on jet lag and domestic harmony - as am flying back from Mexico (where I am currently- don’t know if I mentioned that) the previous day

Then we could repeat previous Eastleigh experiences later on. Possibly not the ones that went wrong last time though

Who’s Dave - your imaginary friend?

Won’t be a long night out, Bletch’ll be wankered after half a pint of bitter.

Whoa, OK everyone, just calm down…we can’t let you all come on Bletch and Fowllyd’s big night out.

So far, confirmed for Bletch and Fowllyd’s big night out we’ve got…

  1. Bletch

  2. Fowllyd

We’ve got a ‘possible’ for SO5 who is coming all the way from Mexico for the occasion.

And Dinger’s arse* will be there but only if we go to the Hyde Tavern in Winch.

My favourite venue for Bletch and Fowllyd’s big night out would be The Wagon Works in Eastleigh because it’s small, intimate, it’s right outside the station and the ambience of an evening is fantastic, oh, and did I mentioned that it’s cheap as fuck.

That said, Flyd may convince me to go to Winch if they sell Punk IPA from Brewdog**.

So, to accommodate the numbers we’re expecting we’ll be operating a waiting list on this thread from now on.

Please add your name below.

*only in cartoon form on the wall of a loo at the Hyde Tavern where he’s thoughtfully left his mobile number in case people want to visit his ‘country cottage’.

**Brewdog - the best brewery in the world.

Surely the operative words in the sentence are Bletch and Fowllyd’s?

No mention of any other names, one is probably safe in the assumption that no other fucker was invited, except SO5 who will porbably “forget” his wallet in Mexico somewhere…

My (admittedly severely depleted) wallet and I will be there

Wagon Works good for me

Do my quiz you fuckers

Ok, so I’m here - early, not so I can get a head start on Flyd and SO5, but so I can line my stomach.

I expect no amount of mirth from telling you that I’m suffering from dizziness already and am on anti-sickness pills (true story). I’ve got vertigo at ground level. BPPV to be precise.

So I’m a little concerned that my hard earned reputation for drinking might be tested tonight. Started with a pint of Shipyard which is evaporating more quickly than I’m drinking it.

Starting before 7pm…is that wise?

Starting is never wise for Bletch, irrespective of time.

He’ll have been taken to A and E before the other two amigos arrive.

By 7:45PM he’ll be falling into random women on a “KRG scale” of 7.8.
