On this day in 1566 Nostradamus died.

What do you prophecise?

Okie doke, pending any work disasters I will be there - just say where and what time! (I gather Neros if Frith Street, but where if Soho Sq?!)

In Soho Sqaure we end up in the corner nearest Tottenham Ct Rd tube station outside Hill and Knowlton PR agency who are at No.20.

Sorry, I can't make it today. Brazil is playing and work is making me make up the hours I spend watching it, at least they provide a big telly.

How the hell do you know that? Is that the building right besides the flats or the one that has a large glass façade which always seems to have a party on a friday night?

So we gather on the pavement?! What time so I'm not done for loitering :-P

I'll be there :)

@ darkdreamsgal: make sure you bring something with you to cover your licence plate - a shopping bag or 2 will do.
And also if you want to make sure we don't miss each other, it would definitely help if you posted a photo of yourself on here (preferably in swimwear) so that we can make sure we spot you wondering up and down the street ;)

H&K is the glass one and they do the PR for adidas cricket so I've been to a few events in that bar they have on the ground floor. It's very nice in there, maybe we should ask if we can host SV evenings on Fridays.

Ha ha - so sexist. Oh hang on,we've had similar images of Zig posted. Glad you never asked me to do that when I first turned up - those photos of me on an XJR in Thailand in a bikini will never be published on here!

me, a perv? nooo ;)

Should be there around 7ish

Speaking of pervs; is Bear coming? that would be shame if our new Orger missed out on meeting him on her first Soho appearance ;)

I'll be there around then. You know what I look like from my avatar but I'll be the one in a frock and sandals without a motorcycle - as usual. And I only have the Glock you see in my photo on special occasions. :smt072

A shame or a blessing? I haven't spoken to the Bear for a whole week. He's messing around on the water somewhere where they talk funny.

EDIT: Peahead please respect the rights of the Squid. There is only one option available to him and that should NEVER be taken by a non Squid. Thanks.

I missed out again! ;) No worries, sure there will be plenty more opportunities to ogle in the future :D

Sorry Mr Squid, who is off on a trip buying me teabags with Treacle in Ireland. I'm just in a S'pose sort of mood today - didn't go to sleep last night at all and already had 6 cups of coffee.

LOL!!! Not sure I should subject the world to a pic of me in a swimsuit! Proving a bit difficult to find a solo pic of myself, but here: http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4094/4754051035_7f18807f95_b.jpg

At the risk of sounding a bit Chinese-ist ('cos I can :-P), it might be difficult to spot me amongst the tourists wandering around though!! Some say we all look alike :-P

Won't be on the bike (coming from work on the tube) so licence plate not an issue.

My new chain and sprockets for the SV have arrived so I'll probably spend the evening covered in grease, swearing at my sprocket nut.

But if it all goes well I might pop down later.

If I didn't know better I'd say there are plenty of men in Old Compton Street who will be doing similar things in some of those bars.

I know, everyone's day's just a little brighter now isn't it?

Mine is Jambo :)

Jo will we be able to spot you as you're quite small going by that picture?

darkdreamsgal
02-07-10, 12:37 PM
LOL! I'm not that small - 5'6" is pretty average for a girl :-P

But if you're referring to the picture sizes, I can't help it - it's either super tiny or super large so I opted for super large in the end since the objective is to recognise me on the street! :-P

Ps Just noticed the bloody great piano keys in the pic, so that must've been what you were referring to *doh!!*

Perv... And yet, she posted a picture... hmm...

You have far too many perks in your job, any chance you could transfer some to me? :)

Ha ha - so sexist. Oh hang on,we've had similar images of Zig posted. Glad you never asked me to do that when I first turned up - those photos of me on an XJR in Thailand in a bikini will never be published on here!

Don't worry there is time, there is always time... and alcohol.

Let the world decide! ;)

I'll be there.

Mine just got a bit dimmer as I won't be there. :(

Brazil better win, otherwise I will be really ****ed off. Oh well, there is always goodwood tomorrow! :)

Ouch.
So England, Portugal and Brazil are out. ...
Poland and Scotland failed to qualify...
Anyone still got a team in the running from our lot?

Technically if Argentina win I get £18 from the work's sweepstake. But that will mean that Argentina would have won, and I can't have that.

Still... :(

Yes, Spain. My great-grandpa was Spanish.

Unless they've been knocked out now too...?

monkey
03-07-10, 12:57 AM
They're still in! They're playing Paraguay tomorrow.

That was a lovely ride home wasn't it just? I had to thank a corsa for nearly taking me out if I wasn't nervous enough on the greasy roads.
