Ahh, the thing is, it isn't overpriced beer. It's dirt cheap at outlet, or it was 2 months back. I'm at the WU LYF gig on saturday, the gig's usually good so long as (and this is just worrying that it happens often) there's not that much press and bellends arriving just to slag off the people there.
Also, spotted, bare loads of bikes outside Saki. Was/is that you lot?
no borders benefit last night at the whitworth followed by reggae thursday next door at saki innit.

They're yours, and you have very good manners!
I'll be playing polo Thursday, somewhere, I can bring the pedals for Woody (although given he will be blind drunk I could just give him two empty cig packets and pass the pedals off to someone else) and the shoes for Nes. Otherwise I'm always happy to cycle somewhere if Thursdays no good for you both.
hahahhaa..erm, i shan't be at polo on thurs as I have sukk marshal training in town followed by a wimmins bike zine meeting in hulme. you playing in hulme though? i could try to drop by?
