I'm not sure that I want grammatically challenged people at the party. Sorry.

AnnieNotalobster · 29/03/2011 22:44

Objects to cocktails on cultural grounds? WTF?!?!?!

Oh and fresh bar snacks too please Val.

Olives are good, but not the ones that look like they've just been chopped out of bladder wrack.

Green all the way.

ChaosTrulyReigns · 29/03/2011 22:57

And is there somewhere safe to put our coats - and none of this raffle ticket for a coat malarkey.

I lose things.

Chaos. You;ll dump your coat and bag in a pile with the rest of ours and be done with it.

If (and I stress if) there are olives, there will only be green ones.

What with it being my (and Method's) party and I only like green olives...

Now back into your box and no more of your diva demands

ChaosTrulyReigns · 29/03/2011 23:06

In fact, I think I need to sleep on it.

Riders are so very important dontcha know?

It shall involve voles, Hotel Chocolat Poire Williams, averted eyes from the proles and hexagonal mirrors.

I will consider it and formalise my requests in the morning.

To whom shall I address my massive?

Shodan · 29/03/2011 23:18

Never mind all this talk of massives and olives.

What are the lavatory facilities like?

Will there be hand towels laundered by nuns and fragranced with roses and lilies?

Will there be carpet on the floor? That doesn't smell of wee?

Will there be shell-shaped china dishes by the basins in which are reposing dainty little cakes of soap from Molton Brown?

The usual hole to hover over and pee into

Will there be hand towels laundered by nuns and fragranced with roses and lilies?

If the local laundrette is staffed by nuns, then yes. I may have to have a word with them get them to use the rose water for the ironing that week. But leave that with me.

Will there be carpet on the floor? That doesn't smell of wee?

Afaik there is carpet. I will arrange a recce post haste so I can smell it.

Will there be shell-shaped china dishes by the basins in which are reposing dainty little cakes of soap from Molton Brown?

This is an unknown. They may have recently ended their supplier contract. Will it be a massive problem if the soap is generic coral pumped soap?

I am something of a loo connoisseur, you know.

Why, at the last (and only) meet-up I attended I even had the taxi driver take a slight detour so I could investigate some prime facilities at a local eaterie.

(They were poor, frankly. Not a sniff of a shell-shaped soapdish. I gave the staff a Hard Stare on my way out)

Anyway.

I can cope with pumped soap, I think.

But the carpet must be fragrant.

(So that when my sense of balance deserts me (sometime very soon after the second drink) I have somewhere comfortable to topple onto after attempting to pee down a hole.)

Shodan · 29/03/2011 23:39

'Scuse me.

I see Chaos trying to evade me.

I'll just go and catch up with her...

BecauseImWorthIt · 29/03/2011 23:55

Never mind all this bollocks about toilets and soap and the right coloured olives.

Does this place serve white wine by the vat?
