bookmarking, and really looking forward to it!

BettySwollux · 22/02/2010 21:59

Oh yes indeedy.

Om nom nom

BouncingTurtle · 22/02/2010 22:05

6 sleeps to go

Mermaidspam · 25/02/2010 07:56

2 more sleeps!

SPBInDisguise · 25/02/2010 08:01

Am I meant to be coming- did I say I was? Would love to if I can but I've maybe left it a bit late to say yes

SPBInDisguise · 25/02/2010 08:04

ignore me, have already had a conversation about it, somehow blanked that out of my mind
Didn't ever hear back from dizzytrout, won't email again or she'll think she's being stalked, but if you're lurking and reading this please come!!

Indith · 25/02/2010 14:44

You want me to drive SPB? You usually end up driving me places!

Could pick SLF up on the way down too

We're all set to meet 7.30pm in Market Tavern yes? There will be Spiggy, MermaidSpam and ButterPie coming with me!

good morning! Looking forward to seeing everybody tomorrow

Indith that would be lovely if not too much trouble... What time do you think? It would save me wandering around Durham marketplace short-sightedly smiling at strangers, which can only be a good thing I guess!!

StealthPolarBear · 26/02/2010 15:56

Right, found you (saw message on the other thread, Indith, thanks).
I'm happy to drive as I'll have A with me anyway, but if A plays up or whatever I may need to leave as soon as possible, so it's completely up to you two if you want a lift. I have no reason to think she'll play up, after attempting to eat my food she usually feeds and sleeps after 8pmish. Of course you're welcome to a lift in and then saying you'll make your own way home but I wanted to warn you rather than giving you a lift then stranding you
Where are you SLF? Where is this place - can I park nearby?

StealthPolarBear · 26/02/2010 15:57

"this place" being the restaurant, not slf's house

Indith · 26/02/2010 16:12

SLF if you hadn't gathered that means SPB is driving! I'm guessing we would pick you up from where I dropped you off last time?

What time SPB?

The restaurant is on Claypath SPB.

StealthPolarBear · 26/02/2010 16:14

ok will leave the parking to you, you know the area much better than me!

I'll park in Prince Bishops (I think that's what its called) but I'll try and go in the right way this time

OP posts:
BouncingTurtle · 27/02/2010 08:46

I'm going to park opposite the Youth Centre, as it is only down the road from the curry house.

StealthPolarBear · 27/02/2010 10:09

is PB 70p all night or something? Or is it still charged by the hour?

Indith · 27/02/2010 10:54

Slf 7.15 where I dropped you off last time?

stickylittlefingers · 27/02/2010 11:42

Hi - yes please - I'll be standing there 7.15. Lovely, thanks ever so much.

StealthPolarBear · 27/02/2010 11:45

I have a mud splattered grey Polo

stickylittlefingers · 27/02/2010 11:53

shall be looking

ButterPie · 27/02/2010 14:40

Excited! DP is grumbling, but he goes out nearly every night, I have never ever been out without DP from this house, and we moved in last summer!

BettySwollux · 27/02/2010 16:50

Looking forward to it.
Anyone fancy a bar and bad dancing after? Make a night of it.

StealthPolarBear · 27/02/2010 16:54

this is a real, proper night out isn't it?
I won't be doing bar/dancing after but am thrilled even to be going on the first bit of such a night

juneybean · 27/02/2010 16:57

I won't be staying out after the meal unfortunately lol

OP posts:
ButterPie · 27/02/2010 17:02

Ooh, betty, I am tempted. I would have to make my own way home though, and public transport between Durham and Washington is terrible, plus I bet I get too tired

Maybe next time, when the new baby is sleeping a bit more and I'm not as tired?
