Drink / Lunch today at Bishop 1pm

[Jah Lush]

Hmmmm...finally got washed and dressed. Quite fancy a pint now. Might nip down for a Sherbet or two after all. Now where did I put the toboggan?

Just saw Strawbs post as to location in the Bishop. It's all happening on LL. We came into the bishop, it was rammed full of people so had a quick coffee at the front with a friend. We noticed several people *looking* around. I had a chat with a fellow forumite looking for you guys. Then we left and fire engines started turning up on LL. A smell of burning in the air, then the firmen made their way to the Thai restaurant. Alot of action on LL, cafe's are packed and Somerfield too. What a day.

Ah man I'm well bored! :(

[Mick Mac]

We might be doing it all again tomorrow - I have had an email from work telling people (who did make it in) that the Met Office predicts another 5-10 cm of snow this evening and that they should go home - so guess what, the Bishop could be busy again tomorrow......

[ratty]

Crazy, Bishop was packed, Gowlett was too busy, Hoopers was closed. Just had a guiness in the Vale!

[KalamityKel]

Was that empty?

[hibbs]

I made it to the Bishop and it was lovely to meet/see everyone, a big welcome to Brum, lovely to meet you. The Bishop was indeed heaving but we managed to secure probably the biggest table in there. Hope you all got home ok. Tx

[Strawbs]

had an absolutely wicked time but because it was so ridiculously full i didnt hear my phone and had about 7 messages and 3 missed calls.. sorry gigirl my bag was under the table and i didnt hear my phone... thank god for hannah who got there at 12.30 and got a table otherwise we would have been stuffed! i have never seen it so busy.. left and went via the general store for ice cream adn then via the pizza shop and got some food... Im still making my way through it all..

thanks to everyone who came.. i think if thee is a snow day tomorrow i will be indoors with a movie and a cup of tea!! oh and left over pizza... xxx

Shucks hoped to make it & meet some of you, alas my inconsiderate boss scheduled audio meetings all afternoon - I may have been working from home but didn't expect to be doing lots!

[Michael Palaeologus]

I popped in to see those brave souls who were still there at about 6ish. Well done to VBC, Mr VBC, Brum, Hannah 6_6, Brendan and a few others I didnt talk to. All in good order, some very relaxed.

[brum]

Yes it was a nice afternoon thanks to all who made me feel very welcome. Hic!

[Brendan]

Whah hey! Slipped my way back up Lordship's Lane and arrived sodden of foot and ruddy of cheek in time to throw snow at the house until I was told to stop it and come in for dinner.

[Hannah6_6]

So lovely to see everyone, and to meet Brum and VBC. I don't think my body could take another snow day today though!

[VeryBerryCherry]

Morning everyone,

How delicate are you all feeling today?

I looked at the snow this morning and dutifully shut the curtains and am gonna pretend it's not there. My liver will be very grateful. Mister VBC had to get me a kebab and put me to bed - yeah!!! Classy Classy Classy.

I do have to say it was great to meet everyone, Brum, Hannah (hope you both got back without fallin over), Hibbs, Strawbs, Brenden and the fleeting appearances of everyone else.

Darn it. I do wish I was out on Friday with you all and the rest of the rabble.

[Jah Lush]

Only popped in for a couple of pints as I'm not really a big fan of the Bishop , and it really was heaving in there but when I saw Brendan outside smoking a tab on my way past and then the lovely Strawbs who gave me a big hug I felt a sudden lure of the Guinness and very nice it was too.
