It doesn't look like I'm going to make it unfortunately. I've been really busy securing this new job and fixing two pc's and going to speedy dating!! (don't laugh), and have been well busy at work wrapping things up and training someone up. It's all been really hectic and I've had no internet access at work & a broken PC at home, I've still got all my xmas shopping to do, and this meet has sprung up and I haven't prebooked the rail ticket or anything!
Sorry! I'll definately try and make it at a later date though.
More bad news........
I'm definately going to be there!
I was there first, fresh from shopping for a presesnt for myself. I had intended to keep Wattsy company but he managed to get lost despite the fact that this is the 7th/8th time we've been there.
Edd was next and then Wattsy. Kos turned up after we had found a table at our usual spot.
Milko and Matt made an appearance later on and squeezed onto the table. Matt complained about the Organic Lager they had, even if the glass it was in did suit him.
Kos had a large sandwich and was shocked when the bar staff pointed out that it would come with salad. They didn't mention that it wouldn't be deep fried but I guess they thought he might take offense.
I also purchased some Nachos as tradition demanded but without Fozza there wasn't the usual feasting.
There was much celebrating of my beard, which lead Kos to name me Rasputin.
Milko and Matt left about the time the latecomers arrived (Paul and Helen, later joined by Martin). About this time Wattsy left although I can't be too sure as i'd had a few.
Dyl didn't turn up but EP did (in photo form).
The rest of the meet lies unremembered except for eating in KFC with Edd.
I then tried to get home but ended up on the Edgware branch. Once on the right line I got off at East Finchley and changed platforms and headed back into London!
Eventually got back to High Barnet and went to a mates where I tried my best to pay attention to Battlestar Galactica and then stayed the night.
The bonus was waking up without a hangover.
Then spent 20 minutes at home before heading to a mates and getting home at 11:30pm last night.
I think that covers it.
Hangover I did have, then was forced into going carol singing at the chuch I got married in. Fucking shite that n all!
Carols make me laugh they are soooo shite!
Many thanks to <whoever> for getting me there!
Although I do seem to be labouring over that pint....
My bad.
Oddly enough, I had no hangover either!
:D
