I just came across this Blog randomly when searching for something else. Anyway just wondered what sort of stuff do you write? You said you were working on some unfinished pieces in the Pub? Just interested I guess.

Nice Blog, I don’t usually pay much attention to them other than MS Developer ones (Coding).

Cheers,
D

If I spent 7 hours in a pub the taxi home would be the cheapest part of the night and I can assure you it would be more than 10 quid :)

Yeah…I’ve had a few creepy experiences at places like Starbucks where I go with my Laptop to get some work done. I’m sure it’s a lot harder for a woman to sit there without being stared at, but trust me, us guys get it too…just not always from women we’re interested in…or women AT ALL! :o

Anyways, these Pubs sound awesome, and they’re part of the reason why I want to live in the UK, AT LEAST just for a few months.

Good post!

you’re from PS3F, right?

It was great sitting there all day. I went back there yesterday and would’ve done so today if it wasn’t for the weather turning a bit, well, meh..

Well, I thought it was a bit on the creepy side, you know?!

Thanks, mate. :D

I like the sounds of that first bullet point aswell. Sounds brilliant :o

But i found the part where people were staring at you, even when you made direct eye contact, to be absolutely hilarious (for some stupidly strange reason!)

Nice blog here Cat. keep up the good work :D

I went there again today and very much enjoyed it. Plus it’s superfast and free internet!

I like meeting new people, but hate making the first step..

I mean the groups normally stay within themselves. And surely my headphones should have given it away!

If I want to talk to other people I go somewhere like Purple Turtle.

But i suppose if you want to be alone…going to a social enviroment probably isn’t the best start. But i can see the appeal of doing that.
