Ok, so after last weeks spectacular, who is up for beers this week?

I ma pretty much out of pubs to suggest, though I don't think we managed to get to The Bavarian Beer Cafe, and I do recall that Todd suggested the Redoak.

Any advances?

Well, I enjoyed it ... even if I did leave my pool skills back in the UK 20 years ago! Have spent the whole week pointing at toilet doors .... Not sure I have any suggestions ... there's a bar in Reiby Place but it's generally pretty packed and the tables are mostly on the path outside or there's the bar outside Customs House ... but neither are really pubs and I'm not being much help am I?!

3 wise monkeys on george st?

never been but got 3 bars so at least one must be half decent....then again, this is australia....

Swerv-o

I've never been myself, so I guess it could be worth a try.

Are you going to be coming out this week sir?

We have been there before although it was almost a yr ago... we ended up there on a thurs night when everyone else bailed on us (sound familiar...?) it was ok and i think i remember the drinks being a decent price?

anyway... what do i care, i have better things to do this week so I won't be out... with that in mind I propose that next week (thurs 10th) we go ten pin bowling in darling harbour - thought i would mention it now as I know how some people need advance warning of such activities....

Bonch

not sure yet, going to try and get out as could do with the alcohol...

amazed vix isn't out to crow about newcastle finally figuring out what all king kev's gesticulations on the touchline are about and winning 2 games in a row...

I was waiting for the inevitable football conversation to start...

It would be good to see you mate, if you can make it...

Can I suggest not the 3 Wise Monkeys, its the worst pub I've ever been to in the world.

Yeah don't know what to make of the Spurs newcastle match, Can I just say that its probably been 10 years since I've seen Viduka, Owen, Butt play like they did.

I hate football anyway , its rubbish I'm foing to avoid tomorrows big 4 love in between Ar5ena1 and the scousers like the plague:curse:

What about Customs House?

vix77

beaten 4-1 at home ny newcastle... i really feel for you, imagine being embarrssed by the joke team of the premiership...

customs house is a good plan... i may come along after the gig if people are still out, all i need to do is jump on a ferry et voila...

Bonch

is this the customs house we went to when it persisted it down with rain in the middle of summer...or have i got my pubs confused again?

If it's the Customs House behind Circular Quay it is the one that's outdoors ... and also across the road from where I work so shouldn't be too difficult for me to make it over! Can't stay out to play too late though ... have been coerced in going to see Maroon 5 on Friday night and need my beauty sleep! Might be able to get a couple of new recruits for Thursday too.

I was about to suggest The Ship, as I am skintos of Sydney this week, and could have done without a poncy bar serving tiny shmiddies at $9 a punt, but there you go, it's a democracy (unlike Zimbabwe - I really Home that Gelectrox and his partner make it out this week - there is much African dictatorship conversation to be had this week. Perhaps, we may even know the Zim election results by then, however, I digress...)

So, fresh recruits - always welcome. I think I may have also recruited the owner of the local Deli, who appears to be a bloke from Buxton (Derbyshire), so we shall see.

And Maroon 5 you say. Which reminds me, did you have any further thoughts Re. that Stereophonics ticket?


S

Just remind me what date the Sterophonics is ... if I don't have anything booked in I'd like to go, let me know how much the ticket is...

Swerv-o

It's Monday May 5th, at the Metro in the City. That's the night that Vicky and I are going, and is sold out now.

The ticket is $70.

That should be fine - I'll see you on Thursday to sort it out
