Duh, duh-duh-duh. Duh, duh-duh-duh.
Duh, duh-duh-duh. Duh, duh-duh-duh....
And you may find yourself
Living in a cycle target city
And you may find yourself
In another forum on the world wide web
And you may find yourself
On the seat of a functional bicycle
And you may find yourself
In a ridiculously busy pub
Being warned for making too much noise
And you may ask yourself, well
How did I get here?Letting the days go by, let the beer hold me down
Letting the days go by, beer flowing underground
Into the dark again after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime, beer flowing undergroundPosted 6 years ago # -
Thanks jdanielp, anyone wondering just how good talking heads were should watch their video for once in a lifetime, 1981, no special effects I think he genuinely falls down then crawls under the camera and pops back up again.
Anyone wondering WTF? When I bought my first suit on what I thought was sale or return I tried it on back in maryhill and asked my flat mates what they thought and they immediately went into the opening bars of Once in a lifetime, the duh,nnn, nnn, nnn, bit that jdanielp includes above. Because David Byrne in the movie stop making sense wears suits with infeasibly large shoulder pads. Hope that clarifies things.
@unhurt, some barmen, eh?
@chdot any chance I can have David byrne's cycling book that IainMcR leant you, you must have finished it by now?

@jdanielp ha!
@gembo No appreciation for storytelling performance.

Posted 6 years ago # -

Which night is the next beer social which I said that I would and wouldn't attend?
Posted 6 years ago # -
@dougal, that is scary
@jdanp, down the bailie bar mon 18th Dec, sadly for me a school night.
Posted 6 years ago # -
@gembo ah yes. That may yet be doable.
Posted 6 years ago # -
It's a school night for everyone. Some of us just have less common sense (and, okay, live substantially closer to the venue...)
(But does anyone want to risk having @Iain McR repeat his sad & lonely too-early-for-PY experience? The humanity etc.)
Posted 6 years ago # -
was in the Bailie earlier - asked to leave as the 'children until 5pm' rule is actually children over aged 5, until 5.

You mean under 5 not allowed ever?
Posted 6 years ago # -
ever

Mmm
CCE boycott?
Posted 6 years ago # -
suddenly the Stockbridge Tap does seem a lot more attractive
Posted 6 years ago # -
??? is that even a thing they can do?
Also: if not Tap, The Antiquary is also a possibility?
Posted 6 years ago # -
The Tap doesn't allow any children at any time.

Grey Friars Bobby not keen on under 18s (after six pm)
Posted 6 years ago # -
I think under the current system, licensed premises can choose what restrictions they put in place as part of their operating plan. Banning under 5's overall just seems to be very arbitrary and surely can't be about protecting udner 5's from harm....
