Christmas Meet Up for all the Gin Hags (and Wine Witches and Vodka Vixens)

[HepsibarCrinkletoes]

Righto, we're at that time of the year again where a Christmas Piss Up in London Town is needed. I propose a date a few weeks before so as many as possible can join in - how about Saturday 23rd November.

This has only been mooted last night, so I've not even got a venue as yet, but I have some ideas. I will, of course and usual, try to make it an easily get-to-able-near-a-traveldodgy place so that those that come into London can take advantage of cheapy rooms in advance.

So...please can y'all start putting names down so I have an idea of numbers initially and I'll get cracking with a venue in the next week or so. Further down the line I'll put the usual FB Group together (for those who are both on FB and happy to join) - I won't be posting the venue on MN as I'd prefer the hairy of hand not to know. Those not on FB I'll chat via PM near the time.

Arf at MN convention in Walfamstow. I'll be expecting you darlin'

Oooh I want to come but can't do that date

I still have my badge from 2 years ago!

MrsD there's a lovely travel lodge right near where I live.

Beautiful view of Asda on one side and no car parking unless you spend £10 in Asda and only want to stay in the car park for 2 hours, it's great.

I think everyone should stay there and enjoy the delightful ness of Edmonton

Anyway, stick my name on the list. But..I have to go on a course in November, I haven't had the date confirmed.

Hopefully it will not be on the actual day of the meet up :(

SayCool that's not on. Especially as I was your personal chauffeur at that one.

Tantrums I was convinced you were talking about Clapham Junction for a moment - but our Dodgy not only has an Asda view, but a Lidl AND a steady rumble of trains 24 hours a day. Bet you're well jell of that.

Oh Hepsibar stop name changing, tis tres confusing!! I didn't know that was you.

Oooh, yes please! I'd like to come!

HepisbarCrinkletoes My first thought was CJ as well! Are you in my 'hood?!

Sorry SayCool I'm not but you know now eh!

Marvellous Reg (if I may call you that)

I am indeed in your hood. Well more Balham, but yeah.

Everyone does

So, er.... About the date then.....

CoolioWhippio it's possible that we can go either side... I shall go with the throng. As you were.

Soooooo - let's say 16/11, 23/11 or 30/11 and the majority will have it.

My vote is the 23rd or the 30th.

Aw Heps, there's a voddy in it for ya! I vote 30th.

Sooooo read that as 'go with the thong'.

You would read it like that you dirty cah..

Maybe along with the Mumsnet Scarf and the Mumsnet haircut there should be a Mumsnet thong?

There's a mumsnet haircut?! do share please...

Is the same as Mintyy's??

Can't do Nov 23rd {sad vadge}

Oh Mintyys was old and I think she gave up.

So if it's the 30th can you grace us Hulls?

Possibly, I have a wedding that isn't the following day.
