The beer was cold, the conversation was lively... what more do we need? :lol:

I wondered where you'd sloped off to - I guess a Sunday morning meeting is a good enough excuse :lol: ;)

Good to see you again and thanks for Lost ;)

Sorry I lost track of you... it was damn near impossible to get back up front after I wandered out to the bar for a bit, at which point I ran into the lovely Jamie (he's coming to Moscow!!), Robder, Zarb, et.al. The next time I wandered out and came back I couldn't find anybody :lol: Thought I saw your hair go by in the crowd when I was in the coat line but was loathe to give up my long-sought position near the front of the queue!

Good to see you as well. Loved the hair ;)

by scalp it do you mean, mow it so there is hardly any grass and all the birds have a field (excuse the pun) day getting worms! ooops!

how do you actually work the turf you're gonna get into the rest of the lawn tho, don't you just end up with a good part and a bad part.

also, does just scattering a load of grass seed on your lawn actually work or should i be doing loads of preparation beforehand?

cheers mr. titchmarch!;) :lol:

To add the turf you slice to the top off the part of the lawn you're replacing and add it in almost like a piece of a jigsaw puzzle:)

If yours is that bad all over then you either get it completely returfed by a professional (not as expensive as you think) which is not very hard work except writing the cheque! If the lawn was once OK then I would buy or borrow one of those aerators and use that all over then add the grass seed all over the patches, maybe mixed with some lawn sand that you also get from garden centres. Remeber the birds will eat 50% of the seed as well as all your worms:twisted:

agree that smokin jo isn't amaaazing but she wasn't too bad. Same old same old electro tracks though, she rarely plays anything I've not heard a million times before.

but the fkukukuukuing bouncers and effng crowd! The beer boy who just took all his clothes off and waved his willy around = wtf? (but bloke wearing the fig leaf = hilarious :lol: :lol: )

bouncers peering over everone's shoulders if they looked like they might be fiddling with illicits :evil: :evil: :evil: - I ended up getting hauled out myself for a good searching by 3 bouncers working the room in tandem to nick people's stuff at about 5am. They're so aggressive as well. Towards the end they were literally pacing back and forward through the room looking for people in a group of 3, surrounding people they thought were doing stuff.

I think everyone was carted out by security at some point Saturday night :roll: :spank: (well cept for me obviously :lol: ). I've never seen the bouncers as bad as that in Ministry for years :roll: :roll: :roll:

basically, we had our front garden dug up a few years ago and the rubble that came up was dumped on a slope in the garden to level it off. so that was where the lawn was born from!8O :oops: :lol: we used topsoil and stuff but i just wanted to tan the seeds on it.......

when you say not that expensive, how much are we talking. the problem area is about 15 feet by 6 feet??

Grego - I got my lawn turfed 3 years ago its 35' by 18' then a 6' x 18' bit - it cost us well under £100 - and it looked fab.... Now its ruined around the borders mainly because of the amount of trees and shrubs we have that suck all the moisture and the grass dies near the edges. You really need to maintain it - specially if you have kids running all over it.... otherwise it looks crap in my book.....

We are having ours taken up next year, levelled again, and then having this put down....

How easy?
 
I know of three people that got taken on a little walk by the bouncers! (inc Rob and Nick :lol:)

Naked bloke (my boyfriend :lol:) got told to get off the podium for ruining everyone's view. :lol:

Where were the performances? It was an audience of pikeys with Moby!

£18 a ticket? For what exactly? It was like the Ministry birthday - bleurgh.

(still had a wicked time tho)
 
:lol: I know but the last one was sooooooo bloody brilliant!...and so is the Misery when you (seldomly) get it right. :lol:

How are you anyway Russ? I was quite looking forward to bumping into you on Sat but alas. :cry:

I know this is a controversial suggestion but y'know folks, there are other clubs in London.

hence why I don't go that much any more - I can't take many friends there cos they hate it so much :lol:

but for the occasional night when the DJ is someone I want to see in a big room with lasers etc or it's nude which (used to) have amazing production I'll go. The main room there is simply brilliant. :twisted: . And then I'll reserve my right to moan about it afterwards :lol: :lol:

To actually have that returfed is probably not going to cost more than about £50 - £100 in turf.I think the issue really is about sorting out all the sh1t under the grass.It's a common problem particularly on new houses that they have great looking lawns for about a year or 2 then it all starts just dying away as the roots reach the rubble and have used up any nutrients that was in the soil that the turf was laid on.

The reality is hard work of digging out all current grass and earth, putting to one side then removing as much rubble as you can and then put the soil you dug our back mixed with more good top soil and loam and then either reseed of better still turf. I think it might be worth getting soeone to quote you.This time of year landscape and gardening comapnies are always short of work and will readily take on jobs like this much cheaper than they would in the spring and summer peak when everyone want these jobs done.
I know 2 guys with gardening companies who say this time of year is always really slow for them.

HTH:)

So that's 3 of us? They really were on the prowl, weren't they?! :lol:

The big burley security guys were barging all over the place (I got bumped out of the way once), but I was more annoyed by some of the big elbow flailing losers on the dancefloor.

4 - you, me, robbieg, jamie :roll:

They dragged rob off like he was some kind of murderer :roll: - it was really scary 'erin, erin! tell erin I've been kicked out' - like a scene in titanic :lol:

Na, I didn't get toted off... though I did get watched for a bit when I was taking a breather (black guy standing alone on the edge of the dancefloor... must be a dealer!)

I was with Paul waiting for Erin to return from the toilets to inform her of Rob's apprehension (but with the problems in women's, he got back before she did :lol:). Everyone seemed understandably annoyed.

I suppose it's all part of the game... though I'd feel less benevolent about it if I'd been dragged off Titanic style :lol:
