Scottish Christmas Do

[nailpolish]

from othere thread...

here?

here?

here?

thats good geordie

s are you def coming?

We need to find out if the LR can offer us a table for the night and and then take it from there?

I honestly would rather sit in a cold bath and chew tinfoil then go to an organised Christmas Party night! However if it is a choice between that and wandering about Edinburgh freezing my bits off to find a bar we can all fit into after dinner so be it!

I must do some work now thou'.

Toodle pip

ill go into living room tmorrow

Can't be arsed with drunken office staff. I do like the living room.

NO to karaoke.

I would like to be able to blether without shouting over "rock DJ" and the hustle or other xmas party stalwarts.

Although yes the idea of traipsing about in the freezing cold from bar to bar is not appealing.

I am happy to do whatever everyone else wants to do. I am not singing karaoke tho.Never have and never will lol.

Kitty i will get Dh to phone his friend this week for a price for a cab home. He is at big job interview today so prob be tomorrow now.

girls

you may or may not have noticed i am rather impatient with these things

so i have just been to the Living Room and booked a private section of the bar for us hope you dont mind!

living room

i think its a pretty ok price, no?

they were SO helpful and nice, they are sending me more info via email

BUT i need a £100 deposit by next wednesday (17th)
i said there were 20 of us and its £5 deposit each

i have paypal.......

the section is luverly, ifyou want a peek go into the bar, turn right immediately and go round as far as you can go and thats the section we get ALL TO OURSELVES deember 15th (830pm - hope thats not too late) we get it FOR THE REST OF THE NIGHT!

Hey, hey - well done you!

All good for me.

Are you going to email your Paypal address out. Will you need to add a bit on to cover any 'admin' costs - don't have a scobby do how it works but recall that CD had to do something re: paypals costs.

Anyhoo let me know.

oh buggery bugger i dont know anything about paypal

i would ahve paid it today but i literally dont have £100 in my bank account

paypal address is my email address...

Are they happy enough to keep it until next Wednesday? If there is a prob I could pay the £100 now?

Thou' perhaps we should wait and see if anyone other then me and you will be going !

the woman i booked it with was called Becky and she was fantastic.
she is happy to keep it til wednesday.
its up to you if you want to pay it gomez.

i still owe you for the mn london flight
how much is that again?

I am happy enough to do it. Shall we wait a day or so thou' just to make sure everyone is happy with venue/price?

Eh, can't remember

Will check confirmation later - then send 'The Boys' round...........

yes lets wait a few days

awfy nice of you to offer. im a wee bit that i couldnt pay it there and then

Can you do a summer one and I will try to come?

It's crazy - I could go to the big meet up in London but feel happier to go to a Scottish one for some reason.

Living Room sounds good to me. Dh says he thinks he has a paypal account, so I'll try and pay via that. If not, I'll get in touch with you nailpolish and we'll sort something out.

Spookykitty - if you really want to come, then you can stay in our spare room in Glasgow if you want. Can't remember if I met you at a Glasgow meetup (or was it you who couldn't find us and so didn't make it?) - but I have been to loads of Scottihs meet-ups and I think most of the other Scottish mumsnetters will vouch for me

Looks great nailpolish - well done you!

I'll speak to missgriss tonight & paypal you tomorrow

Living room looks great nailpolish. I was filling with dread as I read about Christmas party nights tbh. Always some shite band or DJ or unfunny crude "comedian" and it's too bloody loud to chat. Ha ha ha how old am I???!!!

Am I the only one who will be sober? Any others who are non drinkers/pregnant/driving etc etc ??

I have a paypal account and will get a fiver to you asap.

Mawbroon I will only be having a couple as will have dd2 in the bed later.

mawbroon - am pg - so no bevvying for me - I think we met at one of the Princes Square meets - your wee one was v small then.

So we're Paypalling £5 deposit to Nailpolish ASAP - is that right?

Sounds great,don't know how to do paypal so someone will have to help me out there.
