There was me thinking that obduct was the American spelling b.

I’ve just done a HIIT rowing session and have quaffed a .6l bottle of BrewDog’s Punk IPA*.
I can’t drink at the best of times, but with the blood flowing I was convinced it was obducted.
* Blame ant for that.
We’re just a bunch of pansy Brits. Kicking dustbins in Shaftsbury Avenue* is about as bad as we get.
*Hope I quoted that right, Bill.

It’ll be safe the grey skinned one, I for one will not be there leading the impressionable members of the SEC ( Sotonians Executive Counsel) astray with my bonhomie and amazing quaffing prowess…
Yes, fair point, Roswell; it’s good that your kids are aware of the dangers of Internet grooming.
Tell them that their father is travelling thousands of miles to a strange pub in a foreign land to collect a badge from a random bloke going by the name of Goatboy.
That should put their minds at ease.

Not that I wish to be pushy, Halo, but where do you stand on the three questions laid out above? The forum awaits your response with bated breath. Please don’t make me fetch the water-boarding equipment again…

Table booked at Stable from 12.45 you forum duckers and weavers. No special chairs for anyone outside of the first 8 to arrive.

I like you being pushy, Fowllyd; but perhaps we should save the water-boarding until we’ve got to know each other a little better?
Anyway, the answer to your questions:
- No
- No
- I’ve accepted a better offer
sorry I can’t make this, no reflection on the quality of the guest list, more about the dull things that seem to be invading my lifestyle.

Woah, woah, woah - if Punk IPA’s your drug then I’m not even the dealer, let alone forcing you to partake!*
*Shhh, we agreed not to speak about that night.

Hey Sotonians, remember that tomorrow is our first ever christmas party!! All is in place* to make the pre-match venue 
feel like its Christmas and to really put you in the mood for the joyous stuffing of Spuds to follow.
The Pre-match venue here: http://stablepizza.com/locations/southampton/ Table is booked from 12.45 but given the huge range of beers I need to choose from, and hence lots of samples to taste, I will be there from 12.30 latest. No excuses for late arrivals among you locals…
Post match will be at the South Western Arms. Unless we lose, in which case it will be at the morgue.
Look forward to seeing you all in fine spirits tomorrow.
*this is a lie. Its just a bar that sells food. What else were you expecting, hats and streamers FFS?

Well, I’m feeling delicate this morning. I went to Ireland yesterday to get pissed. That most certainly happened. Flew back this morning after bringing my flight forward. Leaving at 7am tomorrow, which should get me in for around 11ish. I will be at the Stable for 12:30, even if it seems impossible right now

That depends on whether I’m the only * one in the South Western Arms for post-match drinks. (again)

Have a Strongbow for me!
Oh, and technically, you have a huge range of ciders to choose from **.
* Well, me and the pub dog(s).
** I thought a cider snob would have known that.

I don’t care about your traffic dramas - as long as you make it down in time for the South Western.
