Um, sorry to drag it back to the question of separatism etc, but. Saturday is a good idea as then those with kids can do the afternoon, those without (or a babysitter) can do evening and some hardcore people can do both. Why does it have to be a Friday night?

Personally I would prefer all the drinks to be on a Saturday night rather than a Friday but I'm not going to suggest they are changed as I only show up to the odd one anyway.

I don't think it's so exceptionally bad to have 3/4 months of drinks on a Saturday night is it?

we could have some on a Friday eve and some on a Saturday afternoon and evenings

could vary them or alternate them

or do Saturdays for Summer and Friday eves for other less 'outdoor' month...

or even do Sunday lunch time occasionally

anything is possible, but I guess it is down to Georgia as she's the one who puts all the effort in, fixes them up and chooses the location


I'm just delighted with the idea full stop, and grateful to Georgia who sorts it all out for us!

The idea was to have Saturdays during the Summer at venues with beer gardens. Thus allowing people to enjoy the glorious summer afternoons with their children and get horribly drunk.


What time is it going to start and will people pace themselves and stay on in the evening?

"Thus allowing people to enjoy the glorious summer afternoons with their children and get horribly drunk."


Should there be a then inserted somewhere in that sentence, dear Michael?


If so, then I agree with the idea in theory, only it didn't quite pan out like that at the Herne and, though I cannot vouch for others, it won't be happening like that at the Rye with me since I am now unavailable for the afternoon slot because an event that I had assumed was an evening do actually transpires to be in the afternoon and so instead of attending the Forum drinks with my family in the day I will be at said event and will now be coming to the drinks in the evening as I had initially not expected to; so could get horribly drunk sans offspring. Voila

    • Greg did an amazing job! He built a cabinet in my living room and added shelving. A lovely guy and perfectionist who goes the extra mile. He really understands what you want and comes up with various options to meet your price range. Would highly recommend!
    • I love the fact that virtually everyone held their hands out when furlough payments were made yet can't equate massive debt with massive cash payments to keep the economy ticking over.   
    • The problem with delivery people nowadays is that they are on such a restrictive schedule that they literally have to just try to deliver and run, otherwise they are penalised. I understand the frustration though.   And good luck making any kind of complaint to Evri. I once sold a laptop on ebay, took it to the Evri pick-up, where it was processed and it then went 'missing' between their pick-up place and the hub. Went through a long, long process where they offered me a desultory amount in compensation and I had to take them to small claims court before they came up with a fair offer the day before we were due to be in court. Long story short, Evri are shite.   Go to look at this forum for the number of people who have issues: https://nationalconsumerservice.co.uk/forum/183-postal-and-delivery-services/
    • I haven't had a rude EVRI delivery but last week I had an unexpected delivery at 10.42 pm. He didn't ring the bell or knock on the door (or rattle the letter flap) but just took a photo and put the box down.  If it hadnt been for the door camera giving us a beep we would never have known there was a parcel ready to sit there all night.
