Forum drinks 15 October!

[Sue]

The next Forum Drinks will be upstairs at the EDT (East Dulwich Tavern, on the corner by Goose Green roundabout) on Wednesday 15 October from 7pm onwards. Come any time at  or after 7!

We have a space reserved in the area to the right as you come into the upstairs room from the stairs (the end of the room where the windows are) .

The upstairs bar won't be open, so please buy a drink before you come up!

Do come and chat to other forum members in real life. There is no need to divulge your forum name if you would rather not.

This is a social event, and not intended to be for publicising  your business -  there are other ways to do this on the forum.

If you have mobility or other  problems which make  stairs difficult for you, please  message me on here beforehand, and we can make arrangements to help you up (and down) the stairs.

ETA: Oops! I double posted but deleted the wrong post! Sorry if you had responded to the other one!

We arranged it specially for your birthday. We are psychic. 

Just sayin' 😂

Really good news as assuming you are from the Southern half of the country you have to buy the 🍺 🍻 but North of Oxford then we treat you. 🎂

My understanding is that those living near The Horniman buy the drinks 🤣

Ah but what if I were to remind you I’m not from this country at all!

[malumbu]

Then I will have to deport you!

Don’t think it isn’t already an ongoing concern 

[Sue]

Hey you lot, let's try to keep on topic 🤣

Oh god! Looks like you lot are in this together (sabotaging any threads that you don’t agree with) so think I will give this a miss. Hope it’s a good event.

Anyone know what this means?

No. 

No idea.

The forum drinks are supposed to be a friendly get together for people to meet and chat, which so far they have been.

That wasn't a helpful post, Cancerian. Perhaps you could explain it?

Yes, we were all absolutely ancient.

We all had to leave by 8pm to go to bed with our mugs of cocoa and hot water bottles.

I could hardly totter home after my half pint of milk stout 🤣
