You... yes you

[SeanMacGabhann]

Because every month there appears to be several people who don't see the notice about the next "everyone come along and have a drink" message I thought I'd try and draw extra attention this month

So the details are

here

everyone is encouraged to come - veteran, lurker, newbie, friend of any of the aforemention... So.. y'know... do

It depemds. How much do they charge for a orange and lemonade concoction?

[SeanMacGabhann]

I just remembered - when I was a barman in Swindon, that used to be called "a Henry"

Sorry - I digress. But then again - so did you ;-)

And if we went one step further and had everyone put the dates in their diaries they would know when the drinks were coming up!

1 August

5 September

3 October

7 November

5 December

:)-D

Good idea Sean, but maybe this would catch more newbies and lurkers posted in one of the other sections (if Mr Admin would allow it) as I think people sometimes miss the drinks notices, because they're here in the lounge, you know what with us all being and unfreindly, loungy, in-crowd that picks on new-comers*.

I think calling it a Henry is a west country thing, it was definitely a Henry in wotton-under-Edge, I favour a Grapefruit Henry.

See you all friday...

*in case it's not immediately obvious, this is a joke.

A henry in London is a very different thing .... apparently.

[ratty]

I thought a henry was 3 and a half grams of cocaine!

I'm 'ennery the eighth I am I am...

1 August - no good for me.

5 September - yup, should be there.

[bignumber5]

Perhaps Mr.Admin would consider making the monthly thread on the subject of the next drinks into a sticky thread in the lounge, to keep it in a wonderfully eye-catching place?

You're right of course. It's an eight ball.

As Ant says "An 'Henry the Eighth.

[SeanMacGabhann]

There are many many reasons I don't partake - so I have no idea what you are all talking about

[benjaminty]

I'm going to be all eyes as soon as someone mentions the word "Henry" tonight .... will the pub go quiet? hmmmm I doubt it...
