Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments Sad news Patti. Mental Dave has a gig on in Huddersfield that day, so you won't get to meet him I'm afraid.

I'm afraid I can't make it. Highland games that weekend. As much as I'd like to crack open bottles of wine with the good people of this site and talk books, the pipes, the hills, the heather, are calling me! :)


Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments Just realised that losing Dave also loses me my transport. If I can get the train to Milton Keynes, can someone give me a lift from there?


Simon (Highwayman) (highwayman) | 4276 comments I am confused.

Maybe us Scottish delegates should have our own more local gathering?"


Well, if you're ever in Glasgow or Edinburgh, while I'm in this contract...

message 123: by Will (new)

Will Macmillan Jones (willmacmillanjones) | 11324 comments I've just remembered that the last time I drove through B'wade, I got lost.

Oh dear.


message 124: by Elle (new)

Elle (louiselesley) | 6579 comments Emma and I got lost also. It's a weird wee town with odd roads.


message 125: by Will (new)

Will Macmillan Jones (willmacmillanjones) | 11324 comments Yes, but I used to have an office there. I shouldn't get lost! But still did.


message 126: by Patti (baconater) (new)

Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments Where was your office Will?

I wonder if you know Dave's brother. Now that'd be weird.


message 127: by Will (new)

Will Macmillan Jones (willmacmillanjones) | 11324 comments My friend Mike had a large garage/showrooms, and I rented some office space he didn't use on the top floor. Left it about 18 years ago, now.


message 128: by Patti (baconater) (new)

Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments His brother has been there for more than 18 years, I think.


message 129: by Philip (sarah) (new)

Philip (sarah) Willis | 4630 comments I can more or less fit in anytime Geoff!


message 130: by M.T. (new)

M.T. McGuire (mtmcguire) | 8049 comments I don't even know where it is... other than that it's in the twilight zone somewhere between Huntingdon and London. I'm sure I'll find it.

Simon (Highwayman) (highwayman) | 4276 comments Hello all, it's been a bit of a week for me. Sorry. I am struggling to know if this is looking good. I think I will confirm it as On. Just don't blame me if only four turn up and have to eat 60 chicken drumsticks.
U
So.... 4pm at Stratton House Hotel, Biggleswade. 22nd June 2013.

message 132: by Jud (new)

Jud (judibud) | 16799 comments Aw, I wish I could go :o(


message 133: by M.T. (new)

M.T. McGuire (mtmcguire) | 8049 comments 4pm?!!! Eeeek! That's about the time I was expecting to be coming home. I don't know why but I thought it was going to start at lunchtime. Or that peps coming from afar were staying over on Friday night...

Yes I'm extremely obtuse.

OK, put me back on the maybe list while I have another conflab with his nibs. Sorry about this.

Cheers

MTM

Jud (judibud) | 16799 comments Just pretend that you were correct first time round and he already agreed to it.


Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments I have booked my flights. So it better be on!!

Elle (louiselesley) | 6579 comments Lordie, I hate bad timing.

Although I should be happy I get to go the weekend after (& I get to stalk Emma again. Good times)


message 137: by Darren (new)

Darren Humphries (darrenhf) | 6903 comments That's a bit later than I was expecting as well, so I'll only be staying for a couple of hours.


message 138: by Patti (baconater) (last edited Jun 04, 2013 06:27AM) (new)

And I'll be expecting my lunch to be bought for me, so someone better turn up then!


message 139: by Jud (new)

Jud (judibud) | 16799 comments Won't Dave be there?


message 140: by Patti (baconater) (new)

Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments He'll be around town. I'm sure he'll join us at some point but he'll also be spending time with his parents.


message 141: by Jud (new)

Jud (judibud) | 16799 comments Make him buy you lunch first then he can go see his parents
