1. Vacancy at Good Ship, 2. Is it your birthday soon? 3.Engerland

Dear all, if you know a good bar manager who would fit into the Good Ship let us know as our man Neil is returning to Australia soon as his visa is running out, which is a huge shame cos he is ace.

We have a couple of Saturdays free in the next few months where we are looking to hire all or part of The Good Ship (for FREE in most cases). So if you or anyone you know may be interested in the 8th July, 26th August or 30th September then please let me know as soon as possible.

England's next game in the World Cup is tonight as I'm sure those of you who care know only too well. We will be open from 2pm to catch the Ecuador v Costa Rica game which will probably be better actually but I am sure I will be watching that one alone. If you have bunked off work then come and keep me company else I hope to see some of you for the England match.

This weekend we have a private party on Saturday until 12 after which anyone is allowed in until 2am. Sunday we have the Australia v Brazil game followed by the legendary Aussie blues guitarist Geoff Achison.

All the best

nudity

Warning...the word naked will appear somewhere later in this email.

Hello all. Right, the world cup starts on Friday and whilst we are showing every game there is also lots to keep those of you not interested in football interested in us. Hope so anyhoo, don't leave us. July is taking shape too with 2 free comedy nights and 2 free film showings but in the meantime here are some bite sized morsels for this week so that you don't have information overload.

WORLD CUP
Firstly for fans of AUSTRALIA we have the last warm up game v Lietchenstein on Wednesday evening at 1030 and we will show all Aussie games on the big screen. Of course, all ENGLAND games too (in fact virtually every game in the tournament) and I strongly recommend arriving no later than 1pm on Saturday so that you can get a good spot. We will also limit numbers as I don't want it too crowded so please try and come early.

THURSDAY
We have a very interesting live bands line up tonight.
Upbeat indie rockers Kaned Citizen, the gorgeous layered sounds of Big Sur, Blondie alike post punk from The Mighty Roars and Brighton loon rockers The Flesh Happening. The lead singer is a bit interesting and naked by the end of the set is not out of the question.

A great line up, free jukebox before and afterwards and bar until 2am.
Have a listen at..
