Right, so some voting (for dates), and some venue checking has been done, and Me n NappiesGalore have made executive organising planning decisions (based on us having little time and few options )

Saturday 22nd November

Dust Bar (website here)

Nearest Tube Station - Farringdon

It will be canapes, so if you want more food, eat beforehand.

The canapes are being chosen for us - they will be clearly labelled as meat, fish, veg and will allergy advice.

The music we can bring a dj, ipod with playlist set up or have music piped up (music is a very varied mix so should suit everyone). We can use any/all of those options.

Music is quieter at bar end, plus we will have volume control.

They have some fabulous sounding shots

Price will be £20 per head max. I will phone tomorrow to find out when they need final numbers for food etc, and when we have a more accurate numbers list, I can work out the right cost - it WILL NOT be more than £20. If we end up paying more than is needed, then obviously I will buy a new dress divide it up and refund people OR put it behind the bar - whatever you think is best.

How's it all sound?

Please sign up FOR THIS DATE AND VENUE here:

Oh sorry - I forgot to put a comment on it

I'm Alison.

Surname is something from a nursery rhyme that rhymes with 'how I wonder what you are'

HTH!

LapinOnTheEventHorizon · 10/09/2008 18:13

Alison Twinkle is a fabulous name

LapinOnTheEventHorizon · 10/09/2008 18:14

Flamey, can I just send you a crisp twenty?

BecauseImWorthIt · 10/09/2008 18:17

Twinkle used to be DH's nickname!

Thank goodness he doesn't know I'm telling you all that.

DanJARMouse · 10/09/2008 18:19

Flame, is it ok to pay at the end of the month, and a bit brassic til then.

If for any reason me and Pillock dont show, we are either lost in london somewhere, or didnt even make it that far! Feel free to use my £20 for the bar!

CountessDracula · 10/09/2008 18:20

I have emailed you FS

BecauseImWorthIt · 10/09/2008 18:31

OMG - do you think he's really want to be anywhere near the MN Massive?!

TheBournemouthConspiracy · 10/09/2008 18:37

BIWI - You were the first payment so fairly easy to spot even without the very cryptic name clue

Lapin - Only if it comes in origami form (DSis has a mate at work who does fancy things with money, so any money as presents come to us as shirt n tie, boxes, swans etc )

Once again: Paypal - [email protected]

Emails for bank details etc - [email protected]

Not a with thems who have emailed the other address (before all the faces appear ), just easier for me as that one goes straight into an outlook folder

LapinOnTheEventHorizon · 10/09/2008 19:01

Oi who are you calling massive?

FredAndGeorge · 10/09/2008 19:26

Remember to do paypal as a GIFT to avoid fees.

POTC · 10/09/2008 19:31

Ok, so now I'm scared that JARM plans to lead me astray in London and I may never be seen again

Also thinking I'm going to get lots of funny looks if I go round with a badge saying pillock

FredAndGeorge · 10/09/2008 19:32

That's who you are!! Have been thinking pirates of the Caribbean

GeorgeAndFred · 10/09/2008 19:41

hello FredandGeorge

PillockOfTheCommunity · 10/09/2008 19:50

Back as me now

PillockOfTheCommunity · 10/09/2008 19:51

I have never actually seen Pirates of the Carribean

Always confuses me when someone refers to it as POTC and often takes me a while to work out it's not me they're talking about

FredAndGeorge · 10/09/2008 20:02
Shock
Overmydeadbody · 10/09/2008 20:08

Zippi please come! It will be fab.

SheikYerbouti · 10/09/2008 20:09

Yeahinaminute is going to let me know whether she can come.

If she can't, can somebody let me know if they are travelling from my way and hold my hand in London, because I bumpkinified now and I'm likely to get lost [inept]

SheikYerbouti · 10/09/2008 20:12

Oh, and Marsy had better not nick my point again, or else there will be trouble

PillockOfTheCommunity · 10/09/2008 20:12

Not coming from your way sheik, but JARM and me could come and meet you when you arrive in London and hold your hand from there on?

TheDevilWearsPrimark · 10/09/2008 20:16

Re- the music, I have done many 'mumsnet jukebox' bar nights on weekends.

We could do similar, and I'm happy to compile favourites onto cds/ mp3 player which we could give to the venue beforehand.

I'm thinking some jazz and funk, some power ballads, some dancy house and maybe some funky swing/ ska.

What do you think?

FredAndGeorge · 10/09/2008 20:31

can we have some rock too please

GeorgeAndFred · 10/09/2008 20:37

and some 80 dance floor stuff too
