Honker Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 Well, I've just awoke after my 3 day coma in ICU. Had a great night though, must do it again soon!! I'll be drinking water (don't worry). I learnt another valuable lesson - don't drink on empty stomach. Do you all make it out for curry??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honker Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 Ha ha, yeah I like the odd one at home but haven't had a session since my wedding in June. Thought I could keep up with my brother 'Sumo' of Heywood. He keeps telling me to practice the drinking but I've given up with it - I will never be a master!! I need to move on to bitter or something with less bubbles - I'm getting old (27). It was good to meet up with you all and nice for the ladies to see eachother too. Not had time to check out the rest of this site yet as just started a new job yesterday. Anything worth looking at? I'm never been on a forum before.

the scouser Posted October 12, 2005 Author Share Posted October 12, 2005 Falangaman has been in toiuch and suggested a monthly do. How does that grab everone? If you're up for it, we thought we'd have the return leg in Liverpool and make it a Saturday afternoon kick off. That way the Manchester crew can pour themselves onto a train and still be home for last knockings at the Dog and Partridge. How 'bout 5 November (pyromaniacs need not attend)? Opothai also suggested having a UK-wide do, perhaps making a weekend of it. Any thoughts? Scouse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the PM's i got for the last do, Birmingham or the Midlands seems to be the favourite for most people to get to but i'll leave that to the southern whimps who didn't make the last one The wife and i will be well up for a Brum do along with a few of our Thai friends down here in good old Bristol. If we can think of a time to do it and what area then all we need is someone in the area that will be willing to organise it. I can organise one in Bristol, but that might be a bit too far south for you dodgy Northeners. If you fancy a get together in Bristol then let me know i am more than happy to organise one. I have a friend who owns a b&b with a restaurant and bar so i can get a good deal on accomodation and food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProfessorFart Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 (edited) What we need is someone on the ground to sort out venues etc. If BS is a brummie then we could let him make some reccomendations. Sod it! No time like the present to get the ball rolling! I'll throw in a few ideas into the pot for a foundation and we can see where we end up. I'm taking it we're all settled on Brum in mid to late November as a host city as its easy to get to from pretty much anywhere in the mainland. Its only 1.30 hrs from Manchester and 1.30 hrs or so from London by train. I always think a Saturday afternoon (around 1-2 ish) is best as it gives people time enough to get there in good time, have a good drink and chinwag before heading off into the sunset. In my experience these things tend to break up around 7-8PM especially when people have to get trains etc. A central place is also pretty important. Somewhere within stumbling distance of stations etc. If we can't get any on the ground info, it could be worth maybe thinking of hiring a function room in a pub and splitting the cost between us all. That way we are assured seats and no interuptions. If we can all agree on the basics then the finer details can then be introduced. Over to you.......................

Thanks for the reply MrBojangles. I'll see if the budget will stretch to Liverpool as well as Birmingham but I'm trying to get out to Thailand to see my girlfriend at Christmas so we'll see. So if anyone wants anything taken out to Thailand for Christmas then then let me know and we'll arrange something at one of the meets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the scouser Posted October 13, 2005 Author Share Posted October 13, 2005 Come on up to Liverpool, Matt. If you book your tickets well enough in advance you can get them pretty cheaply. I've had a look on the national rail enquiries site, and you can get 2 singles for £12.00 each for 5/11. Scouse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

london-matt Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Go on then, twisted my arm! Thanks for checking Scouser. Yeah I'll take a look later then and if they're only £12 then I'll be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trying to get my girlfriend to let me know where she wants to go. She has family in Phitsanulok and wants to go see them. Also I found out today that my brother who lives on Ko Tao has Dengue Fever quite bad so I should go down to see him for a few days while I'm over. But I'm out for 3 weeks so will be in Bangkok for at least a week (pretty sure I'll be seeing in the New Year there) and am definitely up for a piss up out there!

falangaman Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Alright folks... I've been offline for a few days, working in London Seems like things are progressing nicely then, so its Liverpool on 5th Nov if I'm right? I can see another damaged liver on its way.

the scouser Posted October 13, 2005 Author Share Posted October 13, 2005 OK, shall we say 2 o'clock either at the bar at Lime Street station or the concourse itself, and we can then move on from there? Perhaps go to the Philharmonic. Nice pub: they don't let in the feral types flogging car stereos, rolex watches and batteries. Scouse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
