Just posted on the main site about my lack of social life and was wondering if there are any planned meet ups soon?

Thanks in anticipation

I don't know, possibly. I'll go if mynd does Wink

flushes Oddly, the first person I met at the last Knott bar meet up was someone I had known for years, Hair said "I wonder if we'll see anyone we know, and I said "well, I know her for a startGrin".
I'm the short one, and theonewiththehair is predictably, the one with the (fairly distinctive) hairSmile.
We'll be getting the tram in, can arrange to meet at the tram if anyone doesn't want to walk in alone (that's easiest by PM).

I've met 'theonewiththehair' at the MOSI meet up. I used to be suwoo.

MrsGeologist · 29/08/2012 15:09

I'm a maybe, I'm off out the week after though, so may be strapped for cash.

I didn't go to the Knott last time, but I was at MOSI.

Stevie77 · 29/08/2012 15:28

Would have loved to come but unfortunately Sat nights are 'our' time. A thurs/fri would have been good though.

TheOneWithTheHair · 29/08/2012 16:26

Ok - blanket apology!

To anyone who was at MOSI I am sorry but I won't be able to put names to faces but I will recognise you if I see you. Ds2 wacked his head on a steel pole quite early on and his ear swelled up like a balloon so I wasn't really concentrating. I will try harder to remember names this time though. Grin

Maat · 29/08/2012 18:14

Can you put me down as a maybe for now? I really would love to attend a meet-up but usually back out at the last minute (see me on the Introvert thread).

If I remain a "maybe", I might gather up the courage at the last minute or sneak in and hide in the corner Grin

UnnamedFemaleProtagonist · 29/08/2012 18:38

MrsGeologist are you my mate with a name change?

ohforfoxsake · 29/08/2012 18:43

I'm a maybe Smile

MrsGeologist · 29/08/2012 19:14

Yep. I decided it was time for a change. I don't even like chemistry. Sorry I didn't mention it before.

UnnamedFemaleProtagonist · 30/08/2012 01:40

You don't have to apologise to me! Or anyone. I sussed you right out, anyway!

flushes · 01/09/2012 17:26

Will we have to twist a few arms (not literally!) come on ladies. hope you can make it out Smile.

Finding it hard to believe that we are now in September, this year will soon be over!

Hope you are all enjoying the weekend.

No one needs to twist my arm. Grin

whyme2 · 02/09/2012 08:55

My arm might need gently twisting so I don't back out nearer the time Blush scaredy cat

HarleenQuinlan · 02/09/2012 09:19

I'm in! (this is MyndandMist under my new name)

InMySpareTime · 02/09/2012 12:33

Who do we have now? Seems like a decent number already.

RillaBlythe · 02/09/2012 12:41

I could be in depending on when. Shit rota coming up.

TheOneWithTheHair · 02/09/2012 12:46

I'm curious about your hair TheOneWithTheHair, do we have to wait till the night out to see it?

Sat here watching Atonement, it was on C4 the other night, I'm surprisingly impressed with Keira Knightly in this! Good movie so far, up to the sister becoming a nurse.

Flushes it's not that Hair has oddly coloured hair or anything, there's just so much of it, it's a notable feature.

TheOneWithTheHair · 02/09/2012 18:47

Gloria Estefan
Minnie Driver
