Love to be there but… Hope a jolly good time is had by all.
As an aside if anyone fancies a little light rekkid shop browsing and a sherbet or two in Chester on the 7th Nov. with Steve T and I let me know.
Unfortunately that clashes with Stackridge playing in Bolton for the first time in over 40 years. We will arrange something before Christmas assaults our lugholes.
Also Joe R and Lenny (formerly of the previous parish ect ect) couldn’t do 13th – I’ve tweeted them to see if 27th is any better in the light of above posts. 🙂
Let’s stay with the 13th then, which after all is the date you expressed a pref for (and Drakeygirl) and I am sure others now have earmarked. I doubt we’ll ever find another one which suits everyone. Happy to hand over the organisation reins – I was just getting the ball rolling, but we seem to have some momentum 13thwards. ?
Are we still on for a meet?
If Nov is no go, I will be in London for a meeting on Fri Dec 4th. In my line of work this NEVER happens, so I’d like to take advantage of the fact that someone else (not the taxpayer you will be pleased to hear) is paying the train fare.
Yes please.
Sounds like you need a pint!
Yeah, know what? I’m in. Just as long as it’s not the 20th. It’s been far too long since I mingled.
Good!
I well might. Depends on a few factors, but the idea is very appealing!
@adman – do come if you can! It’d be great to see you again. 🙂
ONE pint?
2 or 3 would be preferable (so says the borderline alcoholic sitting in the corner)
Any chance of it being on the 13th? If so, I’m in! Or hopefully OUT!
Any thoughts on venue?
Friday nights in Nov good for me
Somewhere I can easily get back to Waterloo when I realise it’s 15 mins til the last Windsor train!
I’ll give thee a lift back @disappointmentbob. You’re on my way.
I imagined the usual, whatever it’s called. Good location, decent beer. Our own room etc. @hannah is the go-to for booking it. What do you think H?
Me too, but can’t do the 20th.
yes
diary permitting
Go on then.
@disappointmentbob
Cheers Bob.
Likewise! Be good to see you.
Yes please!
Friday night always works well
13th looking good. How does that work for everyone? Suits Bob and DG anyway and I am easy.

I might manage the 13th. Might. There’s a possibility I’ll be out of town…. However I’d love to come.
@twang Yes I do but annoyingly I’m not drinking. Bad time to go teetotal.
13th looks good to me but might be around 8 depending on childcare.
Ta @dogfacedboy – that’d be great 🙂
I think we should bully @bingo-little until he agrees to come.
I will struggle to make either the 13th or 20th work, sadly.
What time do these things usually start? I might be able to poke my head round the door for the first hour to say a long overdue hello.
Let me check the flight schedule …..
Always up for a bevy and a blether…
People tend to rock up from about 6.30 onwards…
Can’t make the 13th which seems to be the mode at present. Have one on me.
Negotiations to extract myself from a quiz team that night have started well. Should be able to make it along with the right compromises.
I’ll make a note of it and see how the land lies.
Just to put a downer on the plans, I CAN make both the 13th and 20th.
Both tip AND top.
13th doesn’t look good for me, unfortunately. 20th and 27th probably OK, if they’re still possibilities
I’m in. Any of 13th, 20th or 27th are doable.
27th is a tiny bit better for me than 13th, actually.
Er… And me.
Also Joe R and Lenny (formerly of the previous parish ect ect) couldn’t do 13th – I’ve tweeted them to see if 27th is any better in the light of above posts. 🙂
I officially hand the “deciding the date” to you Bob.
Go on then.
I do lurk you know, but my mental arithmetic is rubbish so I keep getting the sums wrong at log in.
And my work computer tells HR if I stray from the path.
Be great to see you
@twang Not me guv! Too much responsibility.

13th good for me. Thanks for getting the ball rolling. 🙂
