Actually, I think an "Instant Tea-Shirt" would be one you soak to make 
tea.

But you were not yet arrived on planet Earth then. Tea has been used
as a dye since olden times. I've also made Tea wine, it is a tonic
wine.

For a dye or wine?

Now we know that you will be wearing a T-shirt, would it be too late to ask 
that you also wear some lower-limb coverings. They're a bit funny about that 
in the Jack Horner. (The Spanish Bar probably wouldn't give a damn)
I personally will be wearing Levi 501s (Red tag), whichever shirt is the

    Possibly make-up for ladies eyes. The Egyptians were good at dye making.

Hmm... how did you obtain this information? I'm currently trying to plan 
my route also, but I don't have a timetable to hand... If the last train 
from Euston back towards Northampton really does leave at 21:30, I'm 
screwed too. :-S

Don't worry - I have the information I want now. (The error page does at 
least provide a nice, clear, prominent link back to the search page.)

As you've no doubt discovered it's only the trains that continue on to  
Brum that stop running late at night, looking at one timetable Euston to  
MK seems to run every 15 minutes up to about midnight suitable for all  
those late-night commuters.

Four Povers in a crowded pub full of demonstrators against the church
of scientology soon became. Four Povers in an empty pub, what do you
know? 
I had a good night, Andrew has only one head with a wicked sense of
humour and Dr. John and St are probably still there. No one disgraced
themselves, what more can you ask for?

When St and I left, there were still a few surreal demonstrators around;
shame no-one had a camera :-( Really weird evening (view-wise). Shame
also that The Spanish Bar was too full to get near; I really wanted to
listen to Blueberry Hill played on their '60s juke-box (the real thing,
not an imitation).
Further to a short thread initiated by St and I last night, I have
posted two screenshots of my desktop over in p.b.i. Now that I've shown
you mine, you show me yours :-)

     Heh, yes it was a great night! Thoroughly enjoyed all of your company, 
and the best laugh I've had in ages! :)

     I've just got back in the last 20 mins when I should have been back 
last night - long story, so I won't go into it now, but am I really the only 
guy in the world that gets a London Cabby that *doesn't* know where he's 
going?

      "I'll drop you off here mate, it's the nearest I can get. If you go 
down that road, I think it's down there"

       Nearly an hour later, I'm ringing Stephen at the place the cabby 
dropped me off!! LOL

        Ah, I love it! :)

        Great night guys, would love to do it again sometime, and I'm glad 
Andrew got back safe! (I was worried!)

         Ah, 800 emails to get through - nice.  ;)

          ~Steve~
