I had a great time. Feeling it today I think it was the shots that finished me off.

Tee hee. Xmas Grin

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 02/12/2012 13:12

Back home now, feeling slightly otherwise. DS making me macaroni cheese.
SGB, really sorry to hear about your fall, take care, it can be 24hrs or so before anything develops.
Trills, any news about your purse?
Great night all you lovelies.
Thank you everyone,'specially cat for organising.

TrillsCarolsOutOfTune · 02/12/2012 13:44

I'm home now - on the phone cancelling my cards :(

TrillsCarolsOutOfTune · 02/12/2012 13:51

I am always scared of going down the stairs on buses for that very reason SGB! Hope you're not too bruised.

(I always sit on the top though, I like to sit right at the front of the double decker bus)

Corygal · 02/12/2012 14:05

SGB - you are my personal hero. I hope you are OK. Thanks so much for everything.

Heleninahandcart · 02/12/2012 14:52

It was great to meet so many of you Atrocious Cunts in one place.

SGB I hope you are ok
You are indeed all lovely Grin

CrispyHedgehog · 02/12/2012 15:14

Oh my god.. I think I might be dead.

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 02/12/2012 15:43

Whiter there were shots?!?! Thank god I left when I did Wink One of these days I will stay out past midnight I promise!

I finally feel like I am re-joining the land of the living. Have just ordered nice greasy pizza and chicken wings. Yummmm.

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 02/12/2012 15:47

Trills sorry about your purse, how awful. I hate stuff like that.

SGB I hope it was only your pride that was injured & nothing major sustained

BBB loved our chat, lovely to meet you

And last but certainly not least, cat you looked stunning in your sparkly tights and red party shoes and thank you thank you thank you for organising

TrillsCarolsOutOfTune · 02/12/2012 15:57

The shots were Shirley's fault.

BIWIshYouAMerryChristmas · 02/12/2012 16:00

Thank goodness I left when I did!

And yes, big thanks to Cat for organising.

SirBoobAlot · 02/12/2012 16:06

Hope you all had fun Grin

I heard threats rumors that I had been volunteered to help sort a big Brighton meet up?

Happy to do so if people want.

Whitershadeofpale · 02/12/2012 16:07

Yes there were shots it started with the apple sours, then a ill advised tequila and I think I introduced bewitched and alphabetti to jaegerbombs. No wonder I felt so sick!

icclebabyjesusheave · 02/12/2012 16:11

I lost my hat.

It was probably a good thing though as apparently I threw up in it.

Fucking tequila. I was fine until the tequila.

icclebabyjesusheave · 02/12/2012 16:14

it was all that Shirley's fault.

SpringHeeledJack · 02/12/2012 17:10

cor!

I ain't never heard of some o them there drinks!

and throwing up in a hat is a bit awesome. Better in yer 'at than on your shoes

am now quite glad I couldn't come. Can't drink so would have been sat there like a Puritan all night

BellaVita · 02/12/2012 17:25

Did Shirley go? Shock

Trills, you and Shirls are the dream team when tracking stuff down - what happened?

marriedinwhite · 02/12/2012 18:33

Happy to help with Brighton. When are we having the first drinks to organise committee meeting BBB?

BewitchedBotheredandBewildered · 02/12/2012 21:45

Fucking hell, let me recover from this one, you lot are seriously hot to trot!

SirBoob, sorry if I misunderstood, I'd thought you'd offered, can't remember where, don't feel pressured.

Had thought we would approach the project in a dignified manner in the new year. Do you want to meet before that? Might be able to squeeze you in Grin

marriedinwhite · 02/12/2012 22:06

Well remember I was being dignified last night Grin.

The New Year is fine. Fully booked until early Jan anyway. London, Brighton or somewhere in the middle - what is in the middle? Horsham? East Grinstead? Three Bridges? Departure lounge at Gatwick with all their paypal deposits Grin

SolidGoldYESBROKEMYSPACEBAR · 02/12/2012 22:42

I am a bit, erm, delicate and dazed. Probably mildly concussed - if falling downstairs on buses, it's best to try to land on your arse, not your head.... But it was a most excellent night, thanks everyone.

SirBoobAlot · 02/12/2012 22:54

First I'd heard about it was MABS on Saturday telling me I was sorting it out Grin That's fine, I don't mind, I would have volunteered if someone else had suggested it anyway!

There is fuck all not much in between here and London, really. Haywards Heath is half way between but there is one pub that has seen better days Wink

Shall I start a thread? We can debate location / date over there.

cat · 03/12/2012 03:52

ugheg

I am going running at 6am with my running friend

I have woken up with double-hangover mouth

I spent yesterday at my parents' house - mostly eating roast and drinking more wine

I will return to the thread and read it properly when my vision is back to normal

My running friend probs won't be v impressed in the morning. I won't be running - I'll be doing what we call 'The Saville Shuffle'

cat · 03/12/2012 03:53

I also blame Shirley BTW
