Cool, you are a stop or two after us I think?

RoobyMurray · 13/02/2011 17:22

oy oy, how did I manage to miss all this then?

I'm tramming from oop north too, same stop as hairy.

EM on FB btw.

And I am truly excellent at drinking wine Smile

shinyblackgrape · 13/02/2011 19:01

I'm coming too. Very handy for work. I don't have any MN Facebook friends so wont be able to add any of you. However, maybe I could pm someone a link to my FB page and you could add me?

I am also most excellent at wine drinking Grin

MissMarjoribanks · 13/02/2011 19:10

Check your PMs shiny.

I am very terrible at wine drinking and would be plastered after the second glass.

I can do vodka though Grin.

MissMarjoribanks · 13/02/2011 20:52

I've realised I've got no leave left, so will have to get up at 6am the following morning for work. A 25 mile drive.

So, although I could drink you all under the table possibly I'll have to hold back a little. Sad

TSC, it wouldn't surprise me if it had been one of my friends, I am really shit at remembering names.

I am a bit rubbish at drinking wine nowadays too!However, I've seen Rooby in action and, soz shiny, but my money is on her.

I've been so busy digging out my curly drinking straw that I seem to not be able to find what the actual date is.

Can anyone confirm

fenner · 14/02/2011 17:22

Hi shiny, it's the 22nd of March.

I'm LJ on FB by the way if you want to add me. (Or not - that's fine too!) Wink

shinyblackgrape · 14/02/2011 17:26

Thank you Fenner. Will, of course, be adding you on. Looking forward to goggling at your wedding pics!

fenner · 14/02/2011 17:31

Er, be prepared to be at slightly disappointed! I think the others we're just being friendly. But hey hoy, it's all good.

shinyblackgrape · 14/02/2011 20:38

Fenner - back from gawping. You looked gawjus!

I love your dress, where was it from?

fenner · 14/02/2011 23:46

Thanks. It's from Monsoon. I've been trying to sell the shoes online but no luck.

Are you planning a wedding?

fenner · 14/02/2011 23:46

And, don't worry, I'm not trying to sell you my shoes! Smile

hairymelons · 15/02/2011 00:04

ooh, fenner just had a nosy at the wedding pics too- they are lovely.

fenner · 15/02/2011 08:57

Thanks, Hairy.

mazcat · 15/02/2011 20:16

Hiya, common as muck Salford bird here. Any other Salford birds knocking about on here?

bilblio · 15/02/2011 20:53

Ello. I'm a bit late :) But I think I'm off work that week so a night out would be lovely.
I remember a few names from the Giraffe one.

Oh and I'm out in Stalybridge... which is also Cheshire. I've never worked out quite why it's Cheshire but it is.

fenner · 15/02/2011 22:09

Hi mazcat, I used to live in Swinton, but only for 6 months so I guess that doesn't count. Hmm

Hi bilblio, can you tell me this - why is it called Stalyvegas? I've heard different explanations. I don't believe the one involving Johnny Vegas.

shinyblackgrape · 15/02/2011 22:44

Evening all - just back from making a complete tit of myself on the AIBU thread. Please don't search!

If I have to name change, I will advise via Facebook Grin

Fenners - getting married in September this year.

fenner · 15/02/2011 23:31

For what it's worth, I didn't think you were being that unreasonable. Certainly no need to change name.

suwoo · 16/02/2011 07:53

Hi Biblio!
Mazcat, I'm in Whitefield but at uni in Salford. Isn't Stalyvegas called such just cos its meant to be a good night out, and its just a paradox because the real Vegas is classy and Staylybridge erm isn't. (Sorry Biblio, but you know what I mean- and I know there are very nice parts of SB).

IIRC, Skegness is referred to as Skegvegas for what I imagine to be similar reasons.
