Next EDF Drinks - this Friday 6th June at The Vale

[Moos]

Yay, good night! Particularly enjoyed chatting sensibly with Citizen, less sensibly with Franki, even less sensibly with Annaj and BN5, not at all sensibly with Michael Pickyourownwithus, gibbering at Mockers, giggling with Asset, screeching at Sean Mac and last but not at all least talking, er, handwidth :-$ with Chav and Hibbs.

And there was me hoping they were all in black n white.

Alcoholism looks so much classier that way.

hi, it was nice not to be the only newbie there, and good to chat.

did you make it to actually watch the run?

[MrBen]

VBC - Embarrassingly I couldn't make it back from the gym in time (!) - which rightfully got me some stick. But I arrived just in time to miss Floating Onion being sick in a flower bed. Even better - Sean Macs summer sprinting gear - black boots, black jeans and a black jumper. Like a kind of Irish, Barry Road version of Johnny Cash.

[SeanMacGabhann]

And black hair... oh no, wait.....

[georgia]

So the July drinks - The Herne on what date? Would suggest 4th or 11th July...any preferences?

[SeanMacGabhann]

An committee person's work is never done is it georgia? Thanks for organising last Friday btw

I'm thinking 11th July is better for me but probably ok with 4th if that's better for the majority

[Keef]

Sean I think you might be on a stag do on the 11th.

[SeanMacGabhann]

zoiks

thanks Keef ( I have started to put things in a diary but I haven't yet developed the habit of, you know... checking the darn thing)

[citizenED]

11th is better for me.

[Ladygooner]

I can make the 4th - perhaps we could make it an "American" themed evening for Independence day!

[buggie]

not often I can say this but - either of those dates is ok! :)-D

[VeryBerryCherry]

Either is good for me - can't wait. I might even have sobered up by then.

I'll have to bring Mr VBC along too to meet you all.

[Michael Palaeologus]

Either are fine with me!

[Strawbs]

By the looks of the photos looks like I missed a gooden.. I can do either 4 or 11 albeit I have something on the following day of both of those dates so will try not to get too w*nkered...;-)

[TillieTrotter]

Asset, I think you need to have a serious word with Mr De Black. He's caught you on a few baduns there my dear.

[citizenED]

Really good to see the photos. Didn't we look the part in such swanky surroundings? And without the "speed dating" labels! Met several newbies and there was no problem with introductions/being introduced thing.

[lozzyloz]

Great photo's Andrew. I feel like I'm almost there supping a cold Guinness. Georgia, both days are OK with me too.

[david_carnell]

I'll go for the 4th.

[bignumber5]

Sorry to be so late back on after drinks messiness - captured painfully as always, andrewdblack, thank you!

4th July is the weekend before my massive exams, 11th the weekend after, so which do you want to see - a big bloke on edge making 1 pint last all night and sitting in the corner looking pale, or a big bloke out of control as pint number 9 gets sunk with chaser number 5, following by self doubt, self, loathing and a full dose of hugging strangers for being blurrygud?!?

[Bellenden Belle]

Well Bignumber5 you've convinced me...put me down for the 11th!

Seriously it would be better for me - the 4th is my first Friday at new job so might get asked out for drinks (if they don't hate me on sight!). Alternatively I might like to run back to the friendly forum folk at the end of that week - so really whichever, I will be there, fingers crossed.

[VeryBerryCherry]

I've finally sobered up...

So who was who again?

I think i'm going to have to try again the 2nd time around to remember who the feck everyone is!

[Franki]

Yeah, thanks Andrew for the photos, highly entertaining!

Although Annaj... I think I might possibly have won our 'who is the least photogenic out of franki and annaj' competition! ;-)

[MrBen]

Andrew D Black is one smart man. He silently realised that I hate getting my photo taken and so I'm not in any. And so my forum anonymity to the wider public remains.... *evil laughter*

[TillieTrotter]

I know who you are MrBen......might cost you to keep my silence.....*More Evil laughter*
