I'm still trying to arrange a work meeting for the friday before to avoid the travel costs, but even if I can't do that it should only be about 50 or 60 quid for trains/planes.

When was the last time I wasn't at a London Meet? No, really.

It still IS far too long, but I struggle by.

 

I will do my damndest to attend.

I'll be there in body but perhaps not in mine until the third or forth pint.

I'll be doing my best for ya!

Unless someone finds some wild horses and uses them to stop me getting going, I'll be there.

Standard disclaimer: I might not be there.

Matt: come!!

 

Everyone else: can I suggest a motion that we make sure that Matt doesn't have to buy a pint all day?

If the amount of people come that are foretold then he will indeed be a drunk man.

I would love to be there, and sincerely wish I could be there to buy Matt a beer in particular, but alas it is just too close to Christmas for me. I'll be thinking of you all though.

That's just not good enough.

I am undecided due to many factors. I have at least 3 Christmas parties/night outs/meals to go to in the two weeks running up which will put a large dent in my pocket (read: overdraft). I also need to try to work at some point before Christmas since I have no money due to being a poor post-grad. Clearly I am just making excuses now :((

 

I shall try my best to sort things since I really want to come down. Issues would be where to stay.

I can't help with accomodation but other attendees may be able to...

:Y

THAT is just not good enough! :P

(giggle)

I have just bought a house, and the whole thing's worked out a damned sight more expensive than I'd expected. Not just the house, but all the associated crap. Consequently, I am quite poor at the moment. :(

:'(

Pardon?

Not good enough.

I was giggling at you taking the piss out of Ant...

:Y

Ah! Hmmm. the giggle signifying thingy must be broken here. I have noticed several blank posts lately. Perhaps that explains them.
