[Brendan]

At the moment it looks like I can't but I would like to. Can I stay as a maybe for now?

[SeanMacGabhann]

Bren

I've just booked 8 tickets - we have 7 confirmed as yes (including Mark as of last night) with the 8th going to you unless someone comes in with another definite yes (at which point I'll still give you a final chance - fair?)

[hibbs]

Sean

I'm now free on Sat eve if Bren doesn't take the ticket may I have it please? If not is it just a case of picking up the phone and calling the Forest Hill Hob to book tickets?

Ta.

Hibbs

Good news - Bren, over to you!

TO be honest hibbs I never book for EDF but because it's Stewart Lee I'm not taking any chances. Turning up is usually good enough (if it's by 8ish). Some nights have been packed, others very quiet

The exception to all this is when Daniel Kitson does his mini-residences on Sunday nights. When they happen I have seen 200 people turned away, some from Sheffield and Scotland. I kid you not

At the start of his second Sunday he mentioned the turnaways at the first night and that same night by saying "what's that all about... it's Sunday night in Forest Hill! If you're around, swing by.... but don't TRAVEL for it"

Still some of the best nights I've had mind you

aaaaaaanyway - see you Saturday. At the moment we plan to meet in The Hob at 7:30ish for a few downstairs first. If anyone else has any other suggestions however...

[georgia]

Your plan sounds fine to me. See you then.
