It was really lovely to meat you, Lindy. Huge thanks for making that huge investment in time and money to join us. I hope the bridge-jumping wasn't too bad for your heart. X

And thanks to everyone else who came. It was indeed a legendary meat - surely the largest Northern one ever at 14 bottoms (or 27 buttocks, BP's slender keister only counting for one) on seats. It was a delight as ever to shoehorn the overnighters into the dog basket. May says you're all welcome to balance her chop on her forehead for your own entertainment any time.

Also, yoh! to the idea that we hold an extreme northern Scotch meat next year. The Scottishes have made great efforts over the years to visit the warmth and civilisation of England; it's only fair that we should freeze our tits off and fur our arteries feasting on battered lard in return.

Thanks Manny, the pleasure was all mine.  I'd love to do it again (perhaps in Scottish lands).

Congrats dude on organising a swell-looking meat.

 

Told ya you'd get teh crown.

Ha. Cheers mate. It isn't that hard is it? Just a point of making sure you shout lots if someone suggests changing the date at any point.

Incidentally, I don't know whether to be impressed or dismayed that this thread is over 500 posts long.

Dismayed, I would think - over half the posts are Mouse weeping.

Battered lard dipped in battered lard, with added batter. And lard. But not a Yorkshire pud in sight.

But anyway, yes, people are welcome to come up and visit Scotland, and I can accomodate as many as are willing to occupy the same space, and I'll work it all out some time nearer a suitable meat-time.

Heh. I feel the same way about the fact I have read all of said posts, despite knowing I wasn't going to the meat.

In addition to Kenny, I can most certainly fit a few people into my flat whenever a meet should happen up here.

 

Although it wont be as fancy as Mr Manthorp, no pets and/or fancy breakfasts.....

Shouldn't this thread have become unsticky by now?

it claims it is unsticky

Looks like it was fun. Sorry I did not make it but was wroking all that weekend. A Scottish meet might just be the ONLY way to get Trig to come to one. May I sugest Glasgow, where I have a flat, lots ofl lovely wine and some fine cheeses?

Yes you may because then I will have another reason to come and visit you!

 

I really will get off my arse and come up sometime. Soon. Though having said that, it might be tricky before January. When would be a good time?

Yay, I want to meat Trig! :D

The first or second weekend in June would probably be good for me. :)

I like the idea of Glasgow... instead of travelling for ages, a short trip on the underground and I'd be at the meet!

 

Hooray!

I've always wanted to get oop to Galsgow sometime, so I'm in.

Me too. Depending on the time of the meat, I may be able to sort myself out with somewhere to stay overnight there as well, which would be nice!

I may make a weeks holiday oof or summat, whisk Jodi off to Glasgow on romantic week before meeting up with you retrabates.

There will be if you and Manthrob make it to the meat.
