Well that was fun.

Might leave half an hour earlier next time, trains seem a bit unreliable at this time. Still, only two more minutes before we leave Victoria.

Pretty crowded train too ... lots of people coming from some crappy mainstream concert thing.

T'was gooooooooooooooood. Good to see everyone, including those few whom I hadn't met before!

 

Kids (hah!): don't do drugs, mkay?

Was indeed a good time, despite the
GIANT VOID
caused by those incapable of organising themselves, booking ahead, or just suddenly deciding not to turn up.

:@


But yeah, nice to see everyone that did turn up.


I'll put all my photos online tomorrow - anyone have a preference for flickr, facebook, or a simple gallery ?

Nothing wrong with crappy mainstream concerts, Mr.

Yup, had fun and nice to see old and new faces. Pity I couldn't have stayed longer, but I drank quite a lot in a short space of time on an empty stomach, and by eight I wasn't sure I had the brainpower to get home OK (I did).

I'll slow it down next time and stay a bit longer.

Xmas Meat!

Yeah, sorry about that, had to go see a man about getting a new car for the missus as her old one passed its MOT but with 2 pages of advisaries!

But it passed? Clearly fine until next year!
From: Peter (BOUGHTONP)12 Sep 2010 15:12
To: ANT_THOMAS 353 of 398

I suspect his devious plan is to sell it as a car with a fresh MOT, not mentioning the adviseries, and thus make more money than otherwise.

 

And whilst not the best excuse for not coming, it is better than other lightweights who dropped out last thing.

Sure, not if you like teenage queen-wannabe music, absolutely nothing wrong with them. :P

It was actually oddly nice that several random strangers started talking to each other on the train about it. Pity people aren't more like that on regular journeys.

While one or two of their tracks may have a bit of a Queen influence,  I don't think I've heard anyone suggest they're Queen-wannabes before. Each to their own I guess :)

Bah, you don't bite properly. Paul would be gesturing madly at this point. :P

Meh. Can't actually remember anything of theirs myself, which at least means they're not a terrible engineered-to-be-catchy band, but also that they don't do anything for me.

So what was the final count then? Did you all have fun? An Xmas meat might be out of the question for me as the wife might be dropping our bundle of joy then. But ya never know.

I'm home! Thanks for a good meat. Kudos to everyone who came, special mentions to:-

 

Patch for still being bummable even though he needs to trim back his eyebrows.
Serg for his arm fur.
Boff for a good strangle-hug.
Paul for being a FUCKING LOUD MOUTH.

 

Negative Kudos to those who didn't turn up. Cunts, all of you, especially Kos.

It was good! Would've liked to have stayed longer and will try and plan accordingly for the next meet.

not so easy to do now that the DVLA have started putting all the advisories online for prospective buyers to check

Heh. I'm always pleasantly surprised when government agencies do useful things.
