EDF Christmas Party - Friday 14 December (tonight) @ The Plough

[TillieTrotter]

Just sorted my baby sitter and am looking forward to a good night out on Friday. Hurrah:)-D

[Keef]

Excellent Tillie, you've been missing out too much recently! :)-D

[david_carnell]

I might be able to attend this if that's ok. What time are festivities planning to kick-off?

[Michael Palaeologus]

ALL are welcome - kick off is usually 8pm onwards, but it normally gets busier from 9.

[monica]

very funny Micahel,you watch us lot have fun we do it with style grace and lots of blue nun

[Michael Palaeologus]

NUNS! NUNS! NUNS! Are we still on this feckin' island?

[LostThePlot]

Sorry Guys,

Unlikely to make it as seeing Madness at the O2 that night, and planning on reaching saturation point at about 8:30, so I can bounce about and bring it all back by 9pm ;-)

Mrs Plot will be so proud.... :-)

[georgia]

What time are people planning to turn up?

[SeanMacGabhann]

Is this one different in that we are all having a sit down meal? or is it the usual turn-up-around-8 and start milling around with several drinks? - I'm aiming for 8ish

[Ant]

I'll be one of the late-arriving crowd, as I'm going to a work do first. Free drinks too, so I'll already be completely pissed full of the joys of Christmas when I arrive.

[georgia]

I should be there 8-ish too as no Xmas do to go to first. Not sure if we are having food - Mike??

[Michael Palaeologus]

Given the number of people attending work dos' beforehand I didnt order food, but we will have DJs and possibly some live music. We are on the left hand side of the pub as you walk in with a few tables booked. If people would like food the Plough does a fine array of nibbles and stuff.

I too have a works do so will probably get there at about 8.30ish, ratted.

[TillieTrotter]

Should be there about nine as a gang of us girls are making abit of a night of it (some non-forumites). Light supper at G & B, cocktails in black cherry and then we will swagger (not stagger hopefully) up to meet the guys and girls at the Plough.:)-D

[Keef]

Soz, but think the live music is off... I'm not sure how it would fit in to the evening, and ive-met-jimmy doesn't really want to have to load all the gear in to his car, and stay sober all night to drive it back again...

I may well bring an acoustic guitar with me in case we fancy a pissed up sing song late in the evening! :)-D

Will most likely turn up between 8 and 9...

[KalamityKel]

oooo a tough decision to make... the plough or penge OR Sainsburys...???

[OneJulia]

What with being the DJ I've got to gather my hangers-on and bag carriers together an get dem all blinged up before rocking up bout 9. From there on it's festive party mayhem - Johnny Mathis n that.

Another Paul :^)

[Huguenot]

A very merry Christmas to all of you! Over here we've got Christmas trees and everything, but it's not quite the same in 35 degree heat! Mockney and Mrs. Mockney are over here a the mo, but I know they'd have been there otherwise. I shall try to divert them from their sorrow with a trip to the Singapore Turf Club.

Enjoy the party, it hardly seems like a year ago that there were only eight people on the forum!

:))

[SeanMacGabhann]

We shall toast you all Huguenot

(with all of the people at office parties before they show up tonight I am worried SLIGHTLY about the decorum later, must remember to bring a camera)

[Michael Palaeologus]

Please remember - as its Christmas

DRESS TO IMPRESS

I leave the interpretation of "impress" to your fertile imaginations.

[SeanMacGabhann]

I'll come clean now and say my plans to "impress" have not actually happened so I shall be limited to my normal wardrobe - I'll have to use some imagination

I was in Singapore last December, and isn't it really weird!!! Huge christmas trees in the street with loads of lights, but pretty much as unchristmassy as I've ever felt.

Great place, don't get me wrong (even if Singapore slings are the most disgusting drinks in the world!).

[Ant]

Go out during your lunch break, buy some glitter and glue, and get customising.

(I shall resist the temptation to finish that statement with girl-friend and a wag of the finger.)

[annaj]

I wish I could be there, but sadly I'll be working.

Have fun everyone and Merry Christmas!

Anna

[SeanMacGabhann]

shame Annaj - and most likely not only are you working but VERY busy tonight as well?

[annaj]

It's a dirty job, as they say, but someone's got to do it.

Just do me a favour and make sure no forumites end up in the Emergency Department tonight ;-)
