Ashley Posted December 1, 2010 Posted December 1, 2010 As I said on Facebook earlier (and others have said) nut up. Making the effort will prove your desire more so than just talking a casual stroll to town would have done. Nothing in life worth having comes easy.
Dan_Dare Posted December 1, 2010 Author Posted December 1, 2010 I don't think you all understand just how far away Crookes is- or how hard it is to walk that distance in snow 14" deep. It's not the end of the world- we're planning another day this weekend and I'll see her at work tomorrow. I'm just in a pissy mood.
Nolan Posted December 1, 2010 Posted December 1, 2010 I don't think you all understand just how far away Crookes is- or how hard it is to walk that distance in snow 14" deep. I'll be honest, I do not understand how far away Crookes is. However I offered alternatives to just walking. Get out there on a sled with a stick and plan your route to have hills. Downhill both ways.
Ashley Posted December 1, 2010 Posted December 1, 2010 *checks Google Maps* If Jake FUCKING Gyllanhall can go across New York in a world ending blizzard I think you could make that journey!
MoogleViper Posted December 1, 2010 Posted December 1, 2010 I'm guessing you live near the uni in which case no more than 2 miles?
Dan_Dare Posted December 1, 2010 Author Posted December 1, 2010 it's at least 3- and all up fucking huge hills.
MoogleViper Posted December 1, 2010 Posted December 1, 2010 Do you live near the university? If you do then it's no more than 2. And there are no huge fucking hills. Now you're just telling fibs.
jayseven Posted December 1, 2010 Posted December 1, 2010 Crookes means walkind down to eccy then up the other side, yeah? It is a bit of a mad route with snow and ice (and it is hilly!). If you had some decent shoes, mate...
Gizmo Posted December 1, 2010 Posted December 1, 2010 Gizmo; sounds like your heating is on a timer. Check that shit! Oh you're in halls or something. Ha! Yeah, its on a timer, I just don't get to choose how to set it. Murano? Didn't realise you were at uni in Glasgow (the rest of what I'm about to post is going to assume you are, so if you aren't, sorry ). What are you studying? In first year I take it? Unfortunately yes...Cheviot 1A bitches. Physics/Maths/Astronomy/First Year/16/Cali
Charlie Posted December 1, 2010 Posted December 1, 2010 Yeah, its on a timer, I just don't get to choose how to set it. Unfortunately yes...Cheviot 1A bitches. Physics/Maths/Astronomy/First Year/16/Cali Halls are great fun. You go out much? I've probably seen you before on a night out or something!
Gizmo Posted December 1, 2010 Posted December 1, 2010 Yeah a fair bit. ABC is good, and Arches is awesome especially on a Wednesday. OCouture is shit. Garage is ok. QM is dull. Hive is scummy. This is off topic.
Fierce_LiNk Posted December 1, 2010 Posted December 1, 2010 Aw, Dan. Can't believe you missed out on some serious Hot Dickings because of mashed potato that falls from the sky. Well done for posting that video. Now I want to shout out of my window, too. I love snow. But, I also love women more. I wouldn't let a thing like the weather conquer my love for the females. Shit, I'd swim if I had to. Through a sea of baked beans.
Charlie Posted December 1, 2010 Posted December 1, 2010 Yeah a fair bit. ABC is good, and Arches is awesome especially on a Wednesday. OCouture is shit. Garage is ok. QM is dull. Hive is scummy. This is off topic. You're spot on with oCouture being shit. Garage Saturday's are awesome (for pulling). My other favourite nights: Monday Viper Tuesday Kushion/Strath Union Wednesday Octo or Bamboo Thursday Karbon/Kushion/Jellybaby (ABC) Friday ???? Never found anywhere I really like on a Friday, Bamboo was good last weekend though Saturday Garage Sunday Bamboo One last point, I hope you've discovered how to get into clubs for free?! Either PRs on the street (go hunt them down!) or through the online guestlist (http://www.socialanimal.co.uk for any G1 place and most other clubs have their own website where you can get guestlist. Anyway, back on topic!
Nolan Posted December 1, 2010 Posted December 1, 2010 I wouldn't let a thing like the weather conquer my love for the females. Shit, I'd swim if I had to. Through a sea of baked beans. But, would the females still want you after a dip in the baked beans?
Fierce_LiNk Posted December 1, 2010 Posted December 1, 2010 But, would the females still want you after a dip in the baked beans? It's a bit like The Shawshank Redemption. I'll come out clean on the other side.

Shorty Posted December 1, 2010 Posted December 1, 2010 And there are no huge fucking hills. Now you're just telling fibs. Don't know if I'm missing some humour here but Sheffield is essentially seven huge fucking hills. The route Dans talking about would take an hour in perfect weather and, after having been out in Sheffield today, I can safely say you'd have to double that right now. Still, I have no sympathy because I am loving being snowed in

Still, I have no sympathy because I am loving being snowed in It wouldn't take an hour in normal weather conditions. (I'm still assuming he lives near uni here.) I'd say 30 mins. Also the hills aren't very steep. Edited December 1, 2010 by MoogleViper
jayseven Posted December 2, 2010 Posted December 2, 2010 He doesn't live near uni. He lives atop one hill, and his destination is atop another. It's far more precarious than you've given him credit for.
Dan_Dare Posted December 2, 2010 Author Posted December 2, 2010 Thanks for the back up guys! I'm seeing her today anyway, so there's that. I just wish it wasn't at work.
Dan_Dare Posted December 3, 2010 Author Posted December 3, 2010 So I'm not so mad any more. Massive Win last night
nightwolf Posted December 3, 2010 Posted December 3, 2010 Crookes means walkind down to eccy then up the other side, yeah? It is a bit of a mad route with snow and ice (and it is hilly!). If you had some decent shoes, mate... Oh come on I'm the lazy fecker ever and I'd still do it, I mean SNOW! Anyway, can we make this a general mad as hell thread? Because I'm on a rage this morning and I've been up an hour..
