A few degenerates seem to have the idea that some of us would for some reason once again want to get together for some drink and inane chatter somewhere in London sometime around Christmas.....

So with that in mind the date of 29 November is being paddled around.

Grin and Wine and much fun to be had!

EVERYONE welcome.

There's talk of doing it at lunchtime Boob. So that either gives you more drinking time or more sobering-up time, whichever way you prefer to look at it!

I should still make it - ESP if a daytime /lunch - tho may need explicit directions or someone to meet me at charing cross as soooooooo bad at getting lost

But don't know anyone :( where are all the usual regulars :(

Its the wrong time of day to do it but a AIBU or chat thread directing people here is usually the way to go. AIBU to invite everyone to the MNet London meetup, etc.

I think based on what I heard about last year (I couldn't make it), we might be best to do somthing where no deposit is required and people can just order food/ nibbles if/when they want it.

limitedperiodonly · 23/10/2014 15:43

Yes, you are in cos I posted you on the list Limited.

Yeah, all right mintyy.Just out me as dense and needy, why don't you?
Grin

Where are you coming from blondes? I'm not that good at directions but I might be of help and I can give you my Walking Dead zombie plan for avoiding meandering texting tits with wheely cases.

PS I am about to watch episode 3. You're envious, aren't you? Aren't you? Grin

FruVikingessOla · 23/10/2014 15:47

Oh! It's moved from Meet Ups into Chat Grin

StepAwayFromTheEcclesCakes · 23/10/2014 16:57

well if I am going to come all the way from Plymouth I don't want a little lunch and a few drinks.... I want a major piss up and a proper night out Grin

TreadSoftlyOnMyDreams · 23/10/2014 17:40

Gah - have to go out of town for PIL significant event on 29th. Angry

Hmm, considers feigning D&V and sending DH with children by himself. He'd smell the booze on return though...

whattodoforthebest2 · 23/10/2014 17:42

Go for it, Tread.... A bag of mint imperials and a kebab on the way home should sort that out Grin

whattodoforthebest2 · 23/10/2014 17:43

Oops, am I lowering the tone? Blush

Blondeshavemorefun · 23/10/2014 17:52

im from kent, so will arrive at charing cross

and yes VERY envious at twd s5 e3!!!!

limitedperiodonly · 23/10/2014 18:09

Charing Cross is excellent for our purposes.

Episode 3 of TWD is also excellent.

Look forward to meeting you.

PotOfYoghurt · 23/10/2014 18:18

Good thinking, we must look out for walkers.

Vigilance, even in depravity.

LadyWithLapdog · 23/10/2014 18:27

If it is/starts around lunchtime I might be able to join you too.

nachohousekeeper · 23/10/2014 18:33

I'd like to come if I can find a cheap enough hotel.

limitedperiodonly · 23/10/2014 18:35

Pot, when you get off at Charing Cross or wherever, have a short stabby thing in your dominant hand to eliminate annoying people who get in your way. Keep walking in a confident fashion through the meanderers that you've offed. Don't worry. CCTV footage is often blurred and sometimes wiped in 24 hours. Often the cameras don't even record.

Remember that your ultimate mission is to reach our lunch.

Blondeshavemorefun · 23/10/2014 18:39

where are we going? and does anyone want to meet me at cx and escort me to the premises makes a change from being escorted off the premises Grin

Sleepingbunnies · 23/10/2014 18:50

That's rubbish :( it's my stepmums 50th birthday so won't be able to come

PotOfYoghurt · 23/10/2014 19:08

I normally just use my umbrella and open and close it at sporadic intervals in front of me. Element of surprise and all that.

I'm not sure how well it would fare against a walker of the bitey variety.

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 23/10/2014 20:59

OMG OMG OMG
I turn my back for two months a second and here everyone is! I honestly thought this thread and the idea were dead and I think I actully managed to hide my own thread

I can't tell you how pleased I am Grin

Thank you Mintyy for the PM.
