North of England appreciation evening
7pm Friday 4.Apr.2008 @ Molly Malones
Hahahaha, awaiting instructions on baps/rolls/barmcakes etc etc Don't think they're likely to sell stotties in Bristol.
Dave..
You could bring the biggest fuck off tin of Mushy peas with you...and a pickled egg or 5
Oops, My name aint on the list.. but I will probably be there, wearing my drinking head too!!

Thought about mushy peas too but thought Maurice might think we were taking the piss and once again not sure if they have such a delicacy in Wurzel country.

Robin Hoods Bay, a small village 20 minutes north of Scarborough. The picture is taken from Ravenscar which is reputed to be the place where Dracula visited . 10 miles Further north is Whitby.
Robin Hoods bay what a beautiful place, park at the top and then walk down the long steep winding hill, love the place . I might just pop along on friday night myself, nothing wrong with talking some northern shit

Haven't sung that since I was in the Girl Guides!!
I've never seen it translated.
and the last line before the chorus gets an extra "Wi'out thy trousers on".
Got word back from the boss at Mollys. If we had a cook we'd be allowed to cook Yorkshire Puds or something like. Anybody fancy cooking?
BlueDaves on the case on some Bread. I've asked him about Mushy Peas as well but I suspect you won't get them where he is.
Hiya
Tanya was going to offer to make some Cheese n Onion pies and bring and cut up, understanding shes Ukrainian and its my guidance on how they are made, we can bring some along ?

Got the peas covered in water and Bicarbonate of Soda has been added.Will all be ready for Friday Night.I am however not responsible for the well known side effects of this dish.Pas reckons half a dozen people will be wanting these.We could always have a mushy peas eating contest???

Great. Good idea. If possible I'll come along together with my +1.
Won't be needing the mushy peas etc. though.
Although I'm normal my Mum comes from Bolton and met my Dad somewhere up there. So, I hope I can make it to this Northern Monkey Night.

Looks like it could be a grand shin dig here.Peas are soaking now as we speak
Indeed. From a bit of a running joke between Madgibson and myself over the last 5 months to reality.
Need to go into the cellar tonight and see if I can find my late 80's Yorkshire Cricket Top. I doubt somewhat it will fit though.

Bread has been purloined purchased from Morrisons.
Right then..
To avoid any mess at the end of the Night.. I suggest that we implement a "pay as you booze" scheme.
Helles is 3.10€
Weißn is 3.20€
Suggest that we round upto 3.50€ a drink!
That way Service will be good and no one gets landed with a surprise at the end of the night.
Any thoughts on this?

As you may have spotted from other threads I'm somewhat passionate about ensuring the establishment and ourselves are level at the end of the evening as it almost always ends up off slightly. The Turkish the other night was a little embarrasing actually as we were out by 10 drinks between about 25 people. That's not to say they didn't make a mistake.
If they don't do pay on the bar this would be a good option in my opinion.

Morrisons in Bristol? I thought Morrisons was a "northern" chain of supermarkets?...obviously not...anyhow, I'm sure it'll be tasty with our fish & chips
The first Morrisons was in Morley. My mother lost me in it when I was a toddler.
Morrisons took over safeway a few years back.
I'm actually having flashback traumas now. The huge shelves towering above me. The really leaky roof and the small birds that perpetually flew around that place. Mama , mama.
Disturbingly it's one of my earliest childhood memories.
I think I might need to drink a lot of beer to blot the memory out again.

As to drink i'll opt out S.P. No alcohol for me for years and i do not drink that much anyway only a couple of Apfelschorles.

SpiderPig's "pay as you booze" scheme sounds good to me. Not that I'm much of a drinker though, at least when it comes to beer. Ooh, I see ThePosterWithNoChips has signed up - 'appen he'll be bringing his own bottle of Premier Cru Chablis fer them as likes summat a bit finer . Eee, an' he's half-Boltonian, too, that's grand.
Thinking about the chip butties - there's this white sliced bread called "American Sandwich" that you can get here, that I reckon would do the job of holding the chips together without crumbling away - I could get some on my way there, if needed. Or will we be OK with the bread that Bluedave's bringing over?
And let's not forget the other essential ingredient - butter. Will they have that at Molly's, or do we have to bring our own?
Hope they serve the chips nice and hot. The key to a perfect chip butty is for the chips to be served so hot that, even after being drenched in malt vinegar, they are still warm enough to just melt the butter on the bread. Mmmm, I really want a chip butty now.

P.S. Couldn't you jet down to Munich in your plane and drop off a food parcel over Molly's?
It's usual at this point for somebody to ask how we'll find each other. I think I know almost everybody and, quite frankly, it is likely to be the easiest group of people to find to Mollys tomorrow night so I'll not bother with instructions.
