Yep im up for it again,i missed the last one due to a funeral,but im ready now to unleash my new tunes on SE London once more,

Toby..

[Rbman 247]

The good news is that the carpet has been removed and a wooden dancefloor laid......

Glad to have you back Toby. Not sure if Mr Guarnori is available that night so may have to sort out an extra special guest DJ.......

My son needs to be in Coventry by 10.30 the next day so I'll be the bloke on pop all night and driving home.

Actually it isn't only the carpet that has gone the whole pub has been done up. Although it remains broadly the same it has been repainted throughout and is looking pretty good.

OOh now that sounds interesting unlike most of the bars which are as rough as f... and most of them don't sell alcohol this being a the biggest muslim country in the world and all. I will see what I can find in termas of record places on Wednesday as I have a shorter working day then.

I wish I wasn't here having to put up with all this warm weather. It must be great back in the UK

You know I love you all

Really looking forward to seeing you and Jan again, think the last time it was a Sunday Snug...........well no need to worry about big smoke debut at Blue Skies.....its sort of like Sunday SNug but in some ways in reverse.

Its the night before 100 club instead of the day after.

No Bingo

but then

Loads of great music .............well thats the same (apart from my Mamsey Pamsey shite)

Great relaxed atmosphere.......and that's the same

Loads of beer and great people so no change there then

............and Liz makes great birthday cakes, infact at Martin's birthday in January there were 3 cakes

I am very tempted to play a certain motown record we discussed on soul source about 6 months ago especially for your birthday....that's if you are unfortunate to get there early enough for my set

Just got back. Completely effed.

Excellent mails Chrissie. We have decided Liz is up for baking the cake. I would of course bake it myself except for three important considerations. First I wouldn't have a clue what goes in one, second I don't know how to mix the stuff and lastly I haven't got a clue where the kitchen is. .

Not long now.

Will find out tomorrow if we are going with four lots of speakers.

Woo hoo!

Always a very nice start to the weekend.

Have a good one guys,

[Pete Bennett 1]

We will miss you Dave

Why will we miss him? He will be missed by the Horseshoe as he is a regular for the fish and chips. In fact I distincly remember him saying "Pete can you keep Chrissie on for an extra 10 mins because I'm not taking over 'til I finish this meal' .

Seriously Dave yes we will miss you. The pub is now looking better than ever and as you know it now has nice wooden floor to go with the real ales.

Martin, I promise i will remeber to take the flyers to Boogaloo tomorrow.
