Forum night out

[shambles]

Gawd...was horribly drunk and don't fully remember going home but....

...am still alive!

Good to meet you all last night...well done Georgia for arranging it - great fun!

[mockney piers]

Hurrah, was going to PM you to make sure you were ok :)

I'll second the thanks to Georgia, it was indeed lots of fun, and it was great to meet everybody who turned up, was bullied into coming (huguenot) or swung by on the offchance (Polly Dorner).

I'm sure official documenter Andrew will post up a couple of snaps of us all looking squiffy soon.

[shambles]

thanks piers...just living up to my name - no need to worry!

[mockney piers]

sorry, couldn't resist

What a good looking bunch forumites are!

As promised Shambles:

AS YOU WILL SEE FROM THE ABOVE PHOTO - SHAMBLES IS NOT A BLOKE

This has been a public information message.

When is the next drinkie then?

[Huguenot]

So is Shambles the one with the beard on the left then?

[clare]

who is who please ? nice to put faces to names.

[Huguenot]

Well, I don't think we should tell! ;-) You'll have to come on the next one then!

[Michael Palaeologus]

Crystal Clear, Shambles, Georgia Bullock - L to R

No doubt more to come from Mr Black in due course

Dear Mikewbate,

Is he still in bed with a hangover? Someone phone him, wake him up! Mr Crystalclear, you look as though you are enjoying yourself. Do I sense from you that you will be posting on your flickr site that you are 'spoken for' again soon? It is obvious from the photo that you feel comfortable again in female company. Aren't you a handsome bunch!

[Michael Palaeologus]

I am up and ironing prior to this afternoon's flight to Estonia.

Its an exciting life ....

[dulwichmum]

Dear Mr Mikewbate,

You should get yourself a tin of spray starch. James is very particular with his shirts. It makes shirts look like new. He was horrid to me yesterday - I think I shall have Liliana starch his boxer shorts.

[Polly D]

Oh dear, I feel queasy. Mikewbate - do you think it's worth ringing NHS Direct? Good to meet some of you last night. I fear I may have waffled on, quelle surprise.

[Michael Palaeologus]

D-M - The cad! How dare he be beastly to you.

Polly good to meet you (and the hairy-love loving boyf). No waffling as I remember.

I have called NHS Direct before - I explain my problem and they hang up .......

[dulwichmum]

Dear Ms Polly Dorner,

Do you have any photos? Mr even Mr Blacks phone number to wake him up?

[Polly D]

Hello DM

No photos but I fear Mr Black may be fiddling with his camera as we speak. Mikewbate, be careful with that iron. I couldn't contemplate such a job today; going to lie down at 3pm when Arsenal and Chelsea do their thing.

[dulwichmum]

Dear Mr Mikewbate and Ms Polly Dorner,

It sounds like you had a great night. I had a social life once. I am off to the supermarket to do the shopping. Ho hum.

[Keef]

Sorry I never made it, I admit I started a bit early thanks to England's pathetic performance in the rugby, then bumped in to some friends unexpectedly, and before I knew it last orders was being called! Glad you had fun, and will double efforts next time...

DM, your hunch about Mr Crystal may well be right ;-)

[OutOfFocus]

No I am not in bed. Will get some photos up now.

[OutOfFocus]

OK - nice to feel wanted!

Here are the first few - click on the picture to take you to the set.

I have set them as private but the link above will let you see them - ie you have to get the link from this site to get to them. Not Fort Knox stuff but gives a little privacy. Please let me know if you want any removed. Some of them could do with a crop (no Britney jokes please) but it was better to get them up.

[Huguenot]

Those are great! Thanks Andrew, much appreciated!

[dulwichmum]

Dear Mr AndrewDBlack,

Yes, well done. It is great to see everyone had some fun. I feel as though I was there. Is that Mr Mockney Piers in that photo above with Ms Georga Bullock? I am looking closely at everyone I see out and about on Lordship Lane now, so if I come up to someone and initiate a conversation like I have known you for an age - it is because I feel as though I have!

[mockney piers]

That is indeed me, young DM. I'm finding myself doing the same, as I wander the nooks and crannies of east dulwich.

I'll add some extra thanks to Andrew, great set, you even make me look passable!!

[shambles]

DM - you really must get a babysitter and come to the next one!

Good pics Andrew - thanks for not posting any of me looking cross-eyed and dribbling....oh that was this morning!
