Pub for London meetup chosen!

[Dave]

Alright ladies and gents, we've finally chosen a pub for an Explosm fan meetup in London. Thanks for all the suggestions! There's been so many however that its been hard to come to a decision, so please bear with me if this pub is an uneducated choice. We will start our pub shenanigans at...
The Prince of Teck bar on Earl's Court road.

More info on the address can be found here:

http://www.fancyapint.com/pubs/pub1562.html

We'll be there on Saturday the 19th July straight after the convention. Come say hey at our booth that afternoon and we'll be able to inform you of any updates! Also, we're only starting at that pub so we'll hopefully be playing it by ear and visiting a few others in the area after a couple of hours. Tag along! A meetup would be awesome. Forumers and fans alike are coming. See you there!

...with bells on!

...nothing but bells.

[Dragunov07]

Yeah you guys should go naked.

Then wiggle ur asses at a swiss bystander who appreciates wine glasses at dont shout at busses.

What the fuck are you talking about? But I wish I could come to bad I'm not legal or live in Europe.

[CharlieH]

I'm already there. :)

If i can get the night off work i'll come...

I wish I could come, but I'm only 15; I doubt I'd be allowed (and fit) in :(

Get a beard, sneak in

"Can I see some id?"
"Oh I don't need any, I have a beard."

[John Travolta]

I'll be there.

[John Travolta]

I'll be the one molesting the choirboys.

[Shoot_The_Moon]

I presume that this is the first pub of many, until we find the pub that sells absinth? Am I right? Also, the under-agers should try to get in, like there's no harm in trying... And by 6 they don't really ask for id's and people in the pub never get asked for id, so at the end of the convention they'll be no bouncers and just go in. And many drinking pleasures shall be had! Of course, this is what happens in Ireland, so I don't know what it's like for ye English peoples..

And any English people who know the bar, do they server Magners or Bulmers or any cider at all? If not, I'll have to stay on the shots... I just hate beer! It's just so yuk!

Another thing, I may not be going over yet, it all depends on my brother, and how expensive ryanair flights are, but mostly my brother. Also, what time does the tube stop?

[HolySardines]

And after all this, come to Australia.
Yay, good plan.

[_Chris_]

I'm set to work Saturday night... 7pm-2:30am, must fix this, then get a mate or two to come with me, not sure if i should bring my girlfriend or not... All you geeks hitting on her... LOL

(that was a joke people, no flaming please;))

And if i do show,i'll be the one with my avatar on my t-shirt. Dead embryo, not too hard to miss;)

Oh and seeing as i'm not going to con, what time are you all thinking of getting there? Fuck turning up to find everyones already moved on, i'm from Greenwich, Earl Court of a bit of a trek as it is.Only worth it if people are actually there.

[Chrono]

If Chris has a girlfriend i'm going to hit her

[CharlieH]

They will be there about half 6 i think, because the con ends at 6.

Also, my girlfriend is coming, but only because she is obsessed with heroes.

[_Chris_]

If you hit my girlfriend i would have to stab you, hate to make the knife crime go up but hey, thats my girlfriend, hit her and i'll kill you. Simple.

Bare in mind i don't carry a knife.. Its fine, theres enough glass in a pub to cut people into pieces. I'm not a violent person:). Really. I'd simply kill anyone that hurt my girlfriend. I'm sure people can understand that ;)

Thats if i even bring her... Or even get the time off work to come myself...

USER WAS PUT IN TIMEOUT FOR THIS POST. (http://forums.explosm.net/eventlog.php)
Reason: You probably don't even have a girlfriend, but you're fucked up.

That is fucking scary

Haha it was a joke. But obviously if someone hurt my girlfriend i would hurt them.

I wish I was going now

[Chrono]

I said hit and I meant hit

why do you keep finishing your posts like that? you're not writing a letter and we know it's you from that bit over there <<<<

[_Chris_]

Well its cool, any fucker hitting a girl for no reason deserves something sharp and painful inside them. She would probably knock you out before you even landed a hit anyway :D

[Assassin]

I'm going to hit her too

[John Travolta]

I'm going to punch her in the back of the neck.

[John Travolta]

Chris, get her pregnant first so I can punch her in the uterus.

[miketastic]

I may be coming up :D but only for the pub. I haven't got tickets for the comic con. Anyway, I'm only 15 [though it's said i look 17] but I can still get into pubs, I think. And yeah, you can get cider over here.

And fear not, for I have a wafro

okay, it isn't like i was insulting your mother's honour or something, it's just people don't usually sign off all their posts

[stanley]

I've never been to this particular pub before, but i'd say with confidence that they'll have some kinda cider there (hope you aren't too picky to drink strongbow).
I presume that this is the first pub of many, until we find the pub that sells absinth? Am I right? Also, the under-agers should try to get in, like there's no harm in trying... And by 6 they don't really ask for id's and people in the pub never get asked for id, so at the end of the convention they'll be no bouncers and just go in. And many drinking pleasures shall be had!

Another thing, I may not be going over yet, it all depends on my brother, and how expensive ryanair flights are, but mostly my brother. Also, what time does the tube stop?


As for the tube, I think it stops around 12:30am, but it depends where you're going and all that. Also, I think the only tube line that serves Earl's Court is the District Line (green) so plan accordingly...

What time is the con over? I think I'll go for a bit in the afternoon (unless they stop selling tix at the door at some point?) and then hit the pub with you lot. Anyone have experience with these comic cons and know the scoop about ticket times and stuff?

[Shoot_The_Moon]

Unfortuantly, due to my brother being unable to travel, I shall not be travelling either. I'm not going to a comic con on my own. Anyway, have fun. I'll be over in ireland drinking my jealousy away... :D Maybe next year perhaps!

okay, it isn't like i was insulting your mother's honour or something, it's just people don't usually sign off all their posts

Actually most people do sign the end of their post. Take yours, for example:

Picadilly Line also runs through Earl's Court

[Quadros]

I'm gonna beat the shit out of her then rape her in front of you.

[CharlieH]

Too far dude.

[Oofie]

It stopped being funny after Chrono's second post.

So yeah cool, seems like a nice choice. Should be an interesting night if nothing else.

Signing your post outside of your signature is against the rules.

[Rob]

Hey guys lets save the fighting for when we're drunk.

BTW if you're not going to the con, a safe time to show up at Prince of Teck would be between 6 and 7 PM, or AM if you wanna get a head start.

See everyone tomorrow!

[John Travolta]

See you tomorrow, Rob.

[Greger]

Just a simple question, how much booze do you need to get any of you guys drunk enough to fuck with me(and to get a stupid t-shirt afterwards)?

[GCBC]

Oh the humanity!

[John Travolta]

It would only take a plea for your life to make me rape you.

[Greger]

Will I get a t-shirt? if not then no :(

[Matt]

Just a simple question, how much booze do you need to get any of you guys drunk enough to fuck with me(and to get a stupid t-shirt afterwards)?

That depends. By "fuck with me" do you mean mess around and play jokes on you, or have sex with you? Messing around? 3 drinks. Sex? 1, 2 tops.

[15personalities]

And after all this, come to Australia.
Yay, good plan.

YES!! Come to Oz! That would be so cool!

But atm I'm in England so I may be able to come to the Pub! Besides, Earl's Court is where all the Aussies in London go so I should fit in. :P

[Quadros]

Besides, Earl's Court is where all the Aussies in London go

Oh shit, ABORT, ABORT!!

[Greger]

That depends. By "fuck with me" do you mean mess around and play jokes on you, or have sex with you? Messing around? 3 drinks. Sex? 1, 2 tops.

Alright, how good does the sex have to be for you to make a stupid t-shirt for me, or honor me in acomic?

[Prawnatron]

I thought I'd just mention that it is legal in England for anyone older than 14 to be in a pub. But you'll have to have lemonade or something.

[stanley]

Has anyone posted any pictures from the meetup? I would do it, but I'm not familiar enough with this forum yet.

[Quadros]

This meet up was the best idea to ever come out of this forum for so many reasons.

[Oofie]

Has anyone posted any pictures from the meetup? I would do it, but I'm not familiar enough with this forum yet.

I'm sorry I thought you were American :(

I'll post pics as soon as I upload them.

[sabrielle6]

can't wait to see the photos :)

did everyone get home alright?

[sabrielle6]

Perhaps we should make the meet up a semi regular thing?

[Oofie]

Since Facebook is being a dick and won't let me upload my pics, I'm just linking my fave one for now. But you can see the rest once I've sorted out facebook :)

[sabrielle6]

That is such an amazing photo :)
I remember the double piggy back and everyone falling over haha!
:)

[stanley]

Haha well done guys, that's a good picture! I look like quite the lurker unfortunately, which I suppose is fitting since this is my... what, 6th post or something?

I've got a few pictures from the evening on my facebook and some videos on my harddrive. One's a good rave video from that SWEET club we went to!

I bet that was uncomfortable since Matt's a lot taller than you.

[natalie137]

I get it, Quadros is short

[Chrono]

Well what actually happened was i gave Quadros a piggy-back then Matt jumped on his back. Ouch

[CharlieH]

Where did you find matt in the end?

[Mirrorman]

I get it, Quadros is short

Nope, I wasn't being mean. I really meant since he's shorter than Matt.

[Shoot_The_Moon]

Yes, I'm jealous. wish I was able to go :( I'm up for any future explosm meet-ups. Just tell me where and when, with reasonable time, and there is a slight possibility I'll be there! :D Same time next year I presume? If so, I'll make it my business to be there! And how was the pub in the end?

[UKJess781227]

Sorry I didn't come along in the end... when i came out of the cosplay thing you guys had already gone, and even tho i had a map i didn't wanna head there on my own lol plus it had been a long day so i just got on the tube and headed home.. before deciding to go to a gig in camden i'd wanted to go to haha. Was awesome, and I made a new friend so all in all very good night, sorry again!!

[Anonnymoose]

I thought I'd just mention that it is legal in England for anyone older than 14 to be in a pub. But you'll have to have lemonade or something.

It's only legal up until 9pm [?] at which point they tell anyone under 18 to leave.

At least in Surrey that's how it works.

Bucks fizz is still dished out to the youth at that time if under the wing of an elder, also Surrey is full of backwards faggots but whatever.

[Oofie]

It's a SECRET

[RedRevolver]

I was there. And was too scared to actually say hello, hahahaha.

I just got my friend to take a picture of you and signed your banner when you were off doing something or other.

LFCC rocked.

[MistyTehMoose]

Stupid Australia.

[Chrono]

What on Earth is HURRRR!?!?!

[Gaura]

I wanted to come to the pub but was bored of the convention and being hit on by a midgety Darth Vader lol, so left- wish I could have had drunken shenanigans with ya'll :)

[MattBruvs]

Hey guys, great show. I totally forgot all about you lot going to a convention thing as I only found out about the LFCC the night before and totally went up on impulse and it wasnt until I saw your stall that it clicked. Earls Court pub meet... durr, lol. I was the 'Petty Crime' guy, thanks again for that doodle, it shall become the movie's poster no doubt, lol. Cheers for signing the T-shirt too

You know, because we had gay anal sex in the back of the pub.

[Quadros]

I'm bleeding internally and when I shit it feels like I'm ripping in half.

[Chrono]

I assumed that you couldn't feel anything when your poo dropped out, your arse looked pretty wide

I think this meetup needs to happen in Australia too, thoroughly worth flying 20 hours to our country for a meet and greet with the 5 or so Australian members of these forums! (and the one or two that would go)

[MistyTehMoose]
