Next EDF drinkie ..

[Michael Palaeologus]

I was invited to organise the next gathering of the clan.

A general concensus has developed around The Clock House Pub - which is aross the road from peckham rye, which would allow the young folk to frolic with rounders bats and maypoles and the older folks to drink beer and wine and wonder why it wasnt like this in our day.

The date: The last EDF dos' were about 4 weeks apart. So, how about 12 May? It is also 2 days before the ED Fair and would give us an opportunity to discuss what we might do at the fair.

Thoughts??

12th is Sat, the day before the fair.

[SeanMacGabhann]

eever or is ok with me I think

[Ant]

Sounds good to me, the Clock House is a lovely pub. But will it have reopened after its refurbishment?

...goes to check on the thread about this ...ah yes: reopening 3 May.

[bagpuss78]

Sounds good to me :)-D

[shambles]

sounds good to me too...:))

[Amelie]

Me too, I have been pathetic about attending so far and would like to come.

[Michael Palaeologus]

Sight diary related cock up, but hey.

12th Ok for everybody thus far?

[Mark]

May I suggest that it's on the Friday the 11th instead? It's just that I know some of you would like to help, if help be needed and going out the night before wouldn't help much. OK, put another way, I'm crap with a hangover and I'd like to enjoy the fair on the Sunday.

[in_nunhead]

I'd like to come along...

[Michael Palaeologus]

Actually, it was Friday I was originally going for but got the date wrong (you wont put me in charge of these arrangements will you!).

So, Friday the 11th ?

[georgia]

Friday 11th fine with me

[Huguenot]

11th is considerable magic.

Mockney - what date's the FA Trophy? Do we have a clash? :'(

[mockney piers]

That's the 12th so let's not get too spandexed.

Hopefully Richard is off to Broadhall way this week to get 10 tickets.

Mind you I think they go on sale to general public today so may have to check out FA web site.

[Keef]

Can't do the 11th I'm afraid, it's a friend's birthday. I thought the idea was to make it a Saturday, and make a bit more of a day of it, hence the rounders and stuff... Not sure I can see much happening on a Friday night when everyone is tired after work :-S

[Michael Palaeologus]

Does look like the 11th. Keef - wont your friend have more birthdays? :))

[louisiana]

Either 11th or 12th is fine, tho Mr L will prob arrive after 8.30 on 11th.

Perhaps we could do the rounders etc on another Saturday - will need nice weather so sometimes difficult to plan too far ahead. Could discuss on the 11th..?

[Keef]

Wasn't expecting date to change on my behalf, and may be able to pop in. But again, it would be nice to make a day of it sometime in the summer...

[vicksg]

As the 11th is kick off night for the Dulwich Festival, I won't be able to make it this time - but count me in for next time!

[shambles]

11th is good for me..:))

[citizenED]

Is this still going on? Like to join you. A trip to the Clock would bring back memories.

[Michael Palaeologus]

Yup - its is still on.

I will toddle down to the Clock and let them know that a group of some 20 Forumites will descend on a mission to boost their profits.

[Jimbo]

The 11th is good for me...

but god knows where this clock is that you are all going on about?
