    Lyra - The EDT

    I went in today. They've only gone and got a babyfoot table. I can't fucking believe it. I take it all back. The place is now in my top one pubs in Dulwich.

    And to think I ignored it to drink in that horrendous hive of aioli, The Bishop.

    HAH.

    Qus: is it free? or if not. how much? Is it a proper glass topped one? are the balls proper ping pong-type ones?

    I really really really really really really really want a game.

      I didn't like to get too close. There were people eyeing me suspiciously as it was, and given my traumatic experience in the CPT yesterday (which stands for Crystal Palace Tavern, and not Compton, as Dr Dre had me believe) I was keen to keep a low profile.

      Anyway, it appears to be a decent table. Definitely glass topped. Almost certainly a garlando or derivative. I'll go investigate properly tomorrow. I'll then be able to determine if it's the kind of table I can rig to get free games out of. I assume it will be. There's not a table been made can stand up to my terrible cheapness.

        I mourn the table at the Rosie in New Cross, which was free. And the one at the Wickham Arms, on which I once won a pint off a drunk Irishman who had previously reigned more or less unchallenged. I have often thought of writing a pub guide based on availability of tables, number of students, quality of players, ethical awareness of issues re spinning (NEVER) etc

          I miss my game sin the Yorkshire House so much it makes me cry.

          If this table is up to scratch, then I suggest, nay demand, a babyfootathon.

                All are welcome.

                Tomorrow lunchtime may be too soon. I shall check tomorrow afternoon, after I wake up. I have a long night of losing at FM2008 lined up. Promotion has proved a difficult step to adjust to.

                    Oh aye, here we go. The hustling has started already. Next you'll be suggesting we play for money.

                    Well I've been there. I fell for it. And I shan't fall for it again.

                            I wish I had saved a copy of the story I wrote about losing money to a small town gangster at table football. But I didn't.

                              I would say that was really funny, but under new board rules I am not permitted. So instead I say it was shit and that you are in fact a cunt.

                                    So if I pushed you with a fingertip, you'd, er, swing gently from side to side?

                                      Something like that. And let me get this straight - I HATE motion sickness.

                                            Count me in for a table footy tourney. I'm sorely out of practice though.

                                              Which rules do you people play: spinning allowed or not? I think it's unfair if spinning is not allowed, because then I don't win so much. When spinning is allowed, I fucking rock.

                                                Spinning should never be allowed. There ARE no rules by which spinning is allowed. That's like saying do you play footbvall by the rules when everyone can handle the ball?
