UK CFC meetup mark II

[Rik Meleet]

In all seriousness I don't think I'll be able to come. "honey I'm off to London for a night out with people I met on the Internet" sounds like a flimsy excuse for me running off with the secretary. Not that I would. (..)

I once phoned my GF that I wouldn't come home for dinner since I was going to a poffertjes (small pancakes usually only eaten by little children) restaurant with a guy I met on the Internet and the only thing I knew from him was his login. She just said: "That's cool - what time will you be back?"

My GF has an avid distrust of the internet. I've only just convinced her that buying from Amazon will not result in our details being cloned and our bank account drained.

No Tennants though.

Good thing too.

Bring her along. Holly had some interesting conversations with the southerners. She was the one who said we should go again. Fortunately, she doesn't manage the finances.

I took my girlfriend along with me to the last CFC meeting!

 

[Abaddon]

So, who is "in" so far?

 

[Kan' Sharuminar]

I'm a definate coming down. Got all but the tickets, and they can be booked on the day

 

[Abaddon]

no cheaper to book early?

 

[Abaddon]

also are you doing otherthings like visit friends etc, or purly visiting on a CFC wim?

 

[Truronian]

I should be coming. My current plan is to get some friends to come with for some Christmas shopping (they wont miss me for a day). I wont know for definite until much nearer the time however.

 

[Kan' Sharuminar]

Purely for CFC, but at the same time my best friend lives in London, so it could be double visit. And tickets are pretty much fixed if you book anytime before a week.

 

[Sophie 378]

Lists of who's probably coming, who's probably not coming, and the unconfirmed edited into OP. Let me know if I've got you in the wrong place

 

[Abaddon]

Sophie!

 

[Kan' Sharuminar]

Sophie!

She's a darling. All it needed was a woman to put the rest of us right and be determined to be organised

 

[Abaddon]

Wonder how many pints for chaos to rhein?

 

[BCLG100]

[Sophie 378]

Noncon since I got him mixed up with Davo, who wil have to ask for extra time off, and Ram said here that he might not be able to come. Any updates on whether you'll be able to come, guys?
Abaddon, Kan: we aim to please ... (nuts, I can't remember what I'm quoting!)

 

[nonconformist]

I'll come for sure if everyone else is...I'll get bus tickets on the day.
