In Shrewsbury town centre, by St. Alkmund's Church, is an alley that has the delightful title of Gropec**t Lane (redacted as it would never get through outside the BP). I am sure that I remember the full horror being displayed on a local-authority manufactured street name plaque, but nowadays it has been downgraded to Grope Lane.That’s excellent, I regularly pass butthole lane in shepshed

I have seen the name elsewhere, City of London for one.

I will be there.
I am back from being abroad for now and will be there; looking forward to it:)
I will try hard not to talk so much.
It’s better to hear your stories than Paul’s tales of pigeon street!
Zoom invitations to follow later, I’ve been having IT issues
Alec we love your stories

I’ll be along later (10 ish), I’m out early evening in a real pub drinking real beer
Someone’s going to be tired (again)I’ll be along later (10 ish), I’m out early evening in a real pub drinking real beer
I am available and my inbox is clear! The missus is stuck in the U.K. and the kids will be in bed!
Perfect situation for a good night in.
Sadly I'll be out watching some live sport so won't be able to make it. Have a good one everyone.
Don’t drink too much, as I have a technical watch related question to ask you!I’ll be along later (10 ish), I’m out early evening in a real pub drinking real beer
Note to self: don’t drink a bottle of red during a vGTG….back to alcohol free beer next time!
I’m sorry I missed you Kirk was ready with first beer in hand and then the on call hone went and work beckoned

Not good on a weekday.
Best joke I have heard for a long time last night. Thanks Christian. it was so funny that I think I will make it up myself.
+1…. a belter!
Sorry all, must try harder.

Another fortnight passes Gents….
Not for me this time. I am on my holidays with the family as we can travel from Germany as double vaccinated without too many hoops and with free tests for the kids.
Apart from trying to visit home in the UK and see family of course. Apparently the Pfizer vaccine is given differently here than n Germany to how the NHS does it! Must be that extended delay between doses or something that does it!
Will be driving to London mate - hopefully will be there in time to jump in.

I’ll be on. Will be a welcome end to a tough nights work!

vGTG - 29 July 2021
Time moves fast....we are all another two weeks older. Some of us may even be wiser!
Another vGTG tomorrow Gentlemen? (All genders are welcome, of course)
I wonder if 'Janet' will forgo his real pub friends and join us this time?
Also, remind me to ask where my mate can best sell his Speedmaster...the password last time was supposed to act as a prompt!
I'll be there (as usual) - but leaving before midnight (as usual)
z
Hopefully I'm in, but maybe later than usual.
Invitations sent via PM. I've tweaked the invitation list this time to avoid spamming people, please let me know if you are missing an invitation and would like to attend.
At most vGTGs we have someone join us for the first time, and it's been a great way of getting to know the TZ community. If you'd like to attend please drop me a PM. Sometimes we even talk about watches!
Does anyone want to suggest a theme for this vGTG?
Another great vGTG last night, good to see those that could make it. 🍻
Kirk I would love to join you this Thursday on the 12 th, but Im dancing with wolves, sorry Foxes! Or it could have been a mangy dog as I was” tired”
Permission to be absent for this one - I'll be having beers with Rkid & mi dad in Manchester ...

Basil Brush costume would be appropriate.....Kirk can be Mr Rodney.....boom boom!
You lot are keen this week. Another vGTG is on tomorrow night, I’ll send invitations out via PM in the morning. As ever ‘newbies’ are very welcome….just PM me or post here.
I’ll be wearing my new Fox stole! Or is that my mangy dog scarf?
Apologies from me - I’ll be at somebody’s leaving do tomorrow night. Effectively the first after-work pi$$ up for 15 months.
Die Zeit verwandelt uns nicht, sie entfaltet uns nur.

....And invitations sent. I know some of you can't make it, but you got a zoom link anyway (don't mess with my spreadsheet!).
Wimm: clear your inbox!
