Seek Assistance Timetable

Jabba produced the following timetable of the day. Drinks listed are Jabba's own tipple, although in most cases most other folk had the same. There is some lack of certainty over the hour of leaving Times Square for the second time.

 

Station Arr. Dep. Pub Present Drink Alternate Pubs Notes:
St Enoch 12:55 13:23 Times Square Jabba, Norman, Alan & Colin Pint of Caledonian 70 - very nice.   Got rid of posters that were plastered all over the walls.
Bridge St 13:34 13:56 The Glaswegian Jabba, Norman, Alan & Colin 70 shilling   Another Rangers pub with a rather amusing advert for the Glasgow Psychic centre above a photo of Princess Marg and Queen MUM. Flock and baroque.
West St 14:10 14:30 The Laurieston Jabba, Norman, Alan & Colin Tartan Special   Pies available in the bar.
Shields Rd 14:50 15:15 Honours Three Jabba, Norman, Alan & Colin Miller Up for sale or lease
Kinning Park 15:28 15:40 The Doctors Jabba, Norman, Alan & Colin Whyte and MacKays Grapes or District Friendly and much more welcoming than the Grapes.
Cessnock 15:50 16:20 The Kensington etc. McEwans 70'   Reasonable Malt whisky selection. Is this the only CLYDEBANK-supporting club in Glasgow? (Signed WET WET WET shirt on wall)
Ibrox 16:30 16:55 Stadium Bar Calders 70'   Empty but friendly. Got my ticket replaced
Govan 17:04 17:35 Brechin Bar Special (despite the barmaid denying it existed).   Busy but comfortable.
Partick 17:47 18:12 Hayburn Vaults Bud   Gay disco feel of lounge now replaced with bad and loud karaoke feel. "Algy Baker 1998 luvs Mark Crawford 1998". Chip stop was much needed and very nice. Met up with other sub.
Kelvinhall 18:30 18:50 Dolphin Vodka and orange Partick Tavern  
Hillhead 18:55 19:20 Curlers Vodka and orange Jinty McGintys Happy fun pub not as busy as the marketing types who designed it would like. "Pete Docherty blows goats"
Kelvinbridge 19:40 19:58 The Doublet Vodka and orange   Norman and Jabba run up the Escalator of Doom. Leather clad blonde takes our photo.
St Georges X 20:15 20:41 Wintersgills Vodka and red bull   Barstaff helpful and friendly. Bar seemed nicer than the lounge bit. Knocked back from Captains Rest because Emmerdale barmaid thought we were too pissed. We weren't she just took exception to us. Jabba ran back into Captain's to tell them what a fine pint we had in Wintersgills.
Cowcaddens 21:00 21:25 Macintosh's Bar Vodka and orange   Stunning barmaid Jane. This is the mirror image of The Doublet.
Buchanan St 21:36 21:54 The Gallery   Pint of Calders I swear this is the worst fucking pub on the crawl. If you were on a hen night this would be the best pub ever. That should be warning enough. Closed circle by returning to Times Square
Closing the Circle 22:08 ??:45 Times Square     BIFTEKI did nice Kebabs, Pakora and Pizza
