London Xmas Do - 22nd November!!!!! Come see here for details and final sign up!

[Flamesparrow]

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?

I haven't decided yet...is there a dead line we need to commit by?

[SaintGeorge]

Yeah, 8 o'clock tonight.

[Flamesparrow]

I'll know in a bit when I have phoned - just gotta go to post office then calling

[Flamesparrow]

Nyeh,

So i will be confirming things tomorrow seeing as they ain't open on a Tuesday

[SaintGeorge]

No, the deadline is 8 o'clock tonight.





Psst, how the hell can I scare them all into signing up in a hurry if you keep checking things 'eh? sheesh

[Flamesparrow]

Ah, yes, tis def 8pm tonight - they erm, went in to work to check on something, found my message and called me back.

[POTC]

Question. If this place is over 21's, what about those MNers who are under 21 - will they be able to attend as it's a private booking?

[POTC]

And can you make the deadline a bit later and get MNHQ to make this a sticky? I think the reason you've not got many signed up is that those of us that only get on for a few minutes at a time might miss this being in Active Convos?

[Flamesparrow]

Ooh that didn't occur to me I will check that tomorrow!!!

I will see about stickying too, they may well say no though

[POTC]

If they say no, they sticky-d last years so claim favouritism

[psychomum5]

[DanJARMouse]

im a first-timer too!!!

But, i have met POTC before and she is my chauffer!!!

[psychomum5]

I was a first timer last year, and I had not been on MN for about 6mths previous either due to RL calling!!!

I did go with flame, who is my best RL friend anyway, plus two others who I had met for the first time that day, and yes, it was scary, and I was not able to drink for medication reasons which made it scarier....

but, you know what.....

I loved it, and spoke to loads of people, and then nappies came and thrust alcohol at me and told me I would be fine (I was), and she is now a good RL friend also.....and I have been on MN ever since (altho DH does not think that such a good thing).

I am friendly

and I am gonna wear a badge so everyone knows who I am

[psychomum5]

one tip tho.......take at least two scarves.

I got mine stolen borrowed by marsy last year

she steals borrows one every year, her way of making sure she is known I think!!!

[DanJARMouse]

ive got my badge planned already

[DanJARMouse]

but i am very fat and short so not hard to miss.

whats the dress code? all fancy togs? Because i dont own fancy togs!

[POTC]

I'm staying sober, that way I will remember all the embarrassing details next day

[DanJARMouse]

i dont really drink so will also be sober!

At least pillock hasnt got to worry about dragging some drunkard home!

[DanJARMouse]

woo hoo its a sticky!
