Well blow me down. Every time in the last few years when I pop in the group is always there. In a conversation with some regulars who were leaving they said to the barmen, "you'll be busy in a minute the Times Crossword group will be in", to whit the barmen says 'I know it's weird. They've been coming to the pub every Sunday for 20(!!!!) years, you'd think by now they would have finished it'Originally posted by MarillionFan View PostI'm in my local pub Reading the paper and posting crap on a contractor bulletin board using my iPhone . Opposite me is a table of eight people between 20 to 60 who I note meet every week at the same time of 930.
They are doing the times crossword one clue at a time. Meanwhile I am writi g this post on my phone.

Come 2025 I'll have outlasted these feckers.Originally posted by MarillionFan View PostI'm in my local pub Reading the paper and posting crap on a contractor bulletin board using my iPhone .

Does killing them off in a Fish Called Wanda style series of disasters really qualify as outlasting them though?Originally posted by MarillionFan View PostHA!!!! Now there is only five of them left.

No doubt they've been here in my local every week for the last five years. As I've been out of the country almost every week for the last 5 years then I reckon we have some form of Status Quo!
