December Partay Tyme Options

[Cobolt]

So! Nightling is coming down in December, and will be here from the 2nd to the 16th, and because she is (in)sane, she would like to meet with as many people as posssssible! So, what are peeps doing? As far as I know, she'll be travelling round a bit, with destinations including London and Norwich, so hopefully there will be a time when it's convenient for all to meet up (not the 8th apparently =D).

So.... post away! (Hopefully this will include Nightling at some point with more detail - I was totally blackmailed into doing this)

[Nightling]

yes she was, I held her down and Wolf threatened to throw socks at her. LOL No really though I would love to meet up with as many as possible. oh yes and first round at the pub is on me! (bet that sparked some interest.)

[Magik5]

im in, need times and places though... could probably stretch to anything on a friday night...

[fido77]

[HYPOBOXER]

I would love to meet up with everyone for a few pints and finally find out who is the certified Serial Killer among us (Cobolt) but im afraid the timing and location are not good for me. Visiting Norwich in December would empty my wallet, a task that will be done spoiling my beautiful daughter on her birthday on the 23rd. Plus Norwich is probably the hardest place to get to from Aberdeen in the UK (intentional I think)

I will donate some cash to the responsible one amongst you (Monkey by default) so you can have a drink on me.

Hypo

[MonkeyFiend]

will have to see whather am working but if not then I should be able to sort something out

[=R6= Raile]

hey i'd maybe come if it was somewhere in or near london.......
i dont really know Nightling but I know the rest of you have been dieing to meet me

[Foxx_in_Socks]

Is everyone meeting up in Norwich?

[Magik5]

oh god. count me out if failes going.

[Nightling]

NO! I don't expect anyone to come to Norwich unless they want too. Wolf has said he doesn't mind driving although I hate to think of too much on him or his car, but as long it's reasonable, we can meet half way or something. I think that Cobolt and Cable may have been talking about taking the train together. I'll be in London for 2 days when I arrive. I'll check out on the 4th. I want to sight see and do the whole silly tourist thing. We go to Canterbury on the 8th to visit my aunt. And Wolf actually lives in Norwich. So other than those bits, i have about 2 weeks to hop around and see people and sights. Just let us know and we'll find wiggle room. Obviously the more SM members we can cram into one big party, the better.

[=R6= Raile]

whooooa i just looked up norwich. thats far

[HYPOBOXER]

Well if its in the big smoke I might be able to get a cheap flight

[Lawpf2001]

does anyone actually live anywhere near Norwich?

[ConTenDeR^]

I live in Ipswich, about 45 mins drive away.

[Lawpf2001]

I think most people live in Scotland, Liverpool or down south and then there's Raile in london. So Norwich is a pretty hench trip.

[Nightling]

that's why we said we could travel.

[fido77]

from one side to the other side of Britain is not very far tho. all third world countries are small. it will only take a while if you are traveling by camel or mule. if you drive a car it should only take 5 to 10 minutes

[MonkeyFiend]

pfft these damn colonials are getting to big for their boots.. and pants..

[Lawpf2001]

would take me 4 hours+ to get there. I guess in Texas that wouldn't even get you to the otherside. but in Britain you have to contend with traffic jams on motorways.

[HYPOBOXER]

Would take me best part of 12 hours. Two trains and a taxi. Fido you sound like a southern gent so you should know all about 3rd world countries. Suppose you could travel that distance if you could get off your cousins for 5 mins lol.
Remember you speak the queens english young man!! If it wasnt for us europeans america would be full of its native indigenous people. Oh wait thats a bad thing.

[Lawpf2001]

Suppose you could travel that distance if you could get off your cousins for 5 mins lol.

[GhOnDiE]

Well i was lookin at stay up in norwich (in a hotel of course) for a few days for this trip defo would like to meet up with few people!! and if any 1 from around the south east area wanted to go up i would have no probs pickin them up as will have 3 spare seats.... so if people did wanna go up from the south nps pick up and takin up there and droppin bk.. let me know times and that and we can arange something... any 1 wanna come il leave my mob numbmer on here just give us a text to let me know 07874106246!!

PARTY TIME SOON WOOP WOOP!!!!!!!!

[Foxx_in_Socks]

I dont wanna drive cus its a mission, but if i can get a train over there i think it will be souper-awesome.
need to find some kind of premier-inn/ travel-lodge to stay in (wheres everyone else staying?)

[MonkeyFiend]

it's quite a journey though - from liverpoo, past london and onto the east coast.

[HYPOBOXER]

Can you get a train to Peterbourough..then Peterbourgh to Norwich?

[Foxx_in_Socks]

What does everyone think about...
if they wanna go somewhere a bit more central so its not so far for everyone, how about...(drum roll) BIRMINGHAM!
i know its not exactly the nicest city, but i bet its got cheaper accomodation than most, and prob easier to get to by train etc. lemme know

[Iofur Wolfsbane]

Hi all,
Im loving the meeting up Idea and i am willing to meet anywhere maybe a central location would be best for everyone but like i said im not fussed.

[Foxx_in_Socks]

IF we were to meet up in birmingham, the hotels are about 50 quid a night, and train from liverpool is 20 quid return-ish, i would imagine its similar for everyone else.
since i work for the same company that does the Premier-inns, ill look into getting us some discount on rooms (maybe cable could look at discount for train tickets?)

would be souper aweseome if we can all get together and just get hammered!!!

[=R6= Raile]

this is looking like my second oppurtunity to see chav's fight

[Lawpf2001]

Birmingham sounds good for me as can get a trained there for like £13 then stay with a friend at uni there.

I guess we really need to base this event round where Nightling is though.

[Magik5]

Daaaaaaaamnd straight


Ghondie, where abouts in the SE are you? me and cable are in gford and were debating on driving up...

but i guess this all depends on location now

[GhOnDiE]

well im in kent in the south east, the only prob now is iv just brought a van and only got 1 other seat but dont mind takin some 1 up and following some 1 else thay can stick all bags in the bk of my car lol

let me know

[Magik6]

Use of a van calls for an SM downhill tournament!

[Lawpf2001]

wow it would be weird meeting you all. what would we talk about?

[Magik5]

gunners

[fido77]

LOL!

[GhOnDiE]

so whats going on then abut every1 meetin up in bermmingham? need details as if its durnin week day prob will have 2 book day off work

[Magik5]

im hoping itll be a friday/saturday night, cant really take uni days off

[GhOnDiE]

yer i that would be best i just wanna know the final details reli, as wanna sort hotel and that out reli now so i know is all booked and stuff im gnna drive up there so any1 wanna lift from the south east area let me know asap

[=R6= Raile]

if gunners isn't coming then neither am i

[Nightling]

So are we thinking the 11th and 12th (friday and saturday) in Birmingham? we may be able to do the 4th and 5th which is also a friday and saturday. Just let us know what works for everyone best.

[GhOnDiE]

well either is best for me, just depends on every1 else now need to make up mind soon as dont want all hotels to be all booked up!!! lol

[Magik5]

for me, the 11/12th would be best because thats my last week of uni until christmas and ill have all my assignments handed in...

[Lawpf2001]

sorry to dissapoint. but im working those days. so cant make the meet.

[Magik6]

I need to be in Brighton on the 12th so could find it a bit tricky making that, I'll let you know though.

Shame you can't make it Law, would be good to have someone to talk about bikes with

[Nightling]

So Birmingham seems to be the magical meeting location (thanks to Foxx for suggesting) If anyone needs a ride, we'll have one more seat i think. I believe Contender is joining our carpool. Has anyone found out anything about hotels in the area? if they have room, etc? I fly out exactly one week from today, so just want to stay on top of this. Any other input guys?

[Magik5]

so whats the plan, jujst go out for drinks and hit a club after?

[fido77]

SM group orgy?

[MonkeyFiend]

Still neeed to find out if I'm in work or not :s

Fekking hate working near xmas... bastards in work seemingly book all december off sometime in the previous January

[fido77]

lol

[Magik5]

so this is looking like itll be saturday 12th Dec?

[Nightling]

I was wondering if by the unlucky chance that tess and can't make it to meet up, where would everyone else prefer to meet? Since most of us are around the south end of England I think we should have a back up now instead of waiting till the last minute to figure this out. Is there a central location based around everyone that someone can suggest? Seeing as how I'm not from there, I have no clue where everything is as well as all of you. Let me know guys. I fly out in 3 days!

[Magik5]

i vote cables house

[Nightling]

would all of of us even fit in cables house for 2 days?! Is there room? lol

[fido77]

yall should all just meet up at goochtyke's house

[Magik5]

(it was a joke)

[Magik6]

statement of the obvious: London!

[Magik5]

expensive hotels, and probably no rooms available due to being around xmas, although im willing to look into it...

[Nightling]

maybe right outside of london so the rooms won't cost as much... but yeah, we can look into it.(and i know it was a joke )

[Magik6]

I was thinking more of the fact that London is a suitable distance for everyone not to have to fork out on a hotel room and just get a train back towards the end of the night

[Cobolt]

*raises hand* I agree with the London idea *slinks away*

[MonkeyFiend]

My rota is in today, I'm listed as on call on that weekend. Will now spend the rest of the day trying to worm out of it bbl

[Cabletwitch]

I'm good for the 12th-14th. I belive I'll be working the night before though, so anyone planning to travel with me will either have to delay for a while if I try to sleep for a bit, or else you'll end up with someone who is sleep deprived and mental.

Like most game nights, really.

[Magik6]

If we meet during the day on the 12th then I can stop off in London on my way down to Brighton, I only have to be in Brighton in the evening.

[Nightling]

I fly out in 8 hours. Knock on wood, cross your finger, hang a horseshoe, say a prayer... whatever it is you do, please do it for me. I'm TERRIFIED of flying and I'll be in planes for 2 days, so wish me luck and i hope to see all of you soon. I'll let you all know when i land SAFELY.

[Magik5]

Right, so as no-one else has bothered to organise this, im going to suggest this as a template for the day:

1. Meet at Waterloo station at 13:00pm (ish).
2. Find a local pub - tube tickets are pretty cheap for a day pass for the local zones so personally i dont mind doing a bit of travelling if people know a good spot for lunch.
3. Drink / laugh at Cable.
4. Go home.

Reply if your coming otherwise we wont know who to wait for at the station!

[Cabletwitch]

I second this motion, with the addendum of duct-taping Dan to a lamppost before we all leave for home.

[Magik6]

Sounds like a plan, but Waterloo?!!! thats a bit lazy of you motherfucker! I know your game, you too cable. How about somewhere that isn't south of the river, because no one ever wants to go south. I say we meet at Tottenham court road, right in the centre. Or if you want to wait outside, Soho square is good.

[Cabletwitch]

Given that theres 3 of us comming up from the southlands, we'd be arriving there anyway. And nearby, you have all sorts of stuff, like the Aquarium, the London Eye, Namco, etc. So stop yer whinging, and get yer arse to Waterloo, you big baby.

[Magik6]

Fuck you! I'll be there but who else is actually going to be there, otherwise we could meet further South?

[Cabletwitch]

My my, we're grumpy today, arent we?

I'm sure at a pinch, we'll just use Waterloo as a general meetup point, then migrate to somewhere more central to either meet anyone else arriving after us, or just in general to facilitate easier departures for whence that time commeth. Or something.

In any case, we're trying to come up with a plan here, so nothing is set in stone just yet. Still waiting for the other 'tards to get their arses online and post yays or nays.

[Magik6]

I'm on a pc with a pentium 4 processor, so yeah I'm a bit grumpy well I'm in provided its during the day on 12th I don't mind where as I'll just get a travel card to get about. (Dan you going to be in Brighton on 13th to meet Vicky?)

[Magik5]

get on msn or steam or sumthin...

and yeh, ill be around - ill cain your ass at bowling just like i cained cables t'other day

___________

im hoping people actually DO reply to this, even if its to say no...

[Cabletwitch]

If you play on the 13th like you played that last time, then you'll be losing right up until the end. Pretty much like every game night

[Magik6]

Well I suck at bowling and pool, two things I managed to ascertain that Dan is much better than me at while at uni

[Magik5]

and biking. and l4d. and field. and r6. and life.

</thread>

[Magik6]

I think you'll find I don' care about most of those, however, as for the biking comment.................doubles? OWNED! talking of biking, remember cable's epic fail on the tiny drop off lol

[Magik5]

hehe yeh - i found that vid of me stacking it on those doubles other day, i still lolled.

[Cabletwitch]

Post eeeeeet!

[Magik5]

http://www.dancotton.co.uk/videos/spank/

[Lawpf2001]

its like a you've been framed vid. looks like you deliberately fell off

[Cabletwitch]

Impressive little stack there. Its like your stabiliser wheels cameoff, and you werent ready to ride a bike properly yet XD

But anyway, we're derailing the thread. More people need to put a yay or nay as to will they be there on the 12th. Anyone?

[Nightling]

we're in for the 12th for wherever. We just need a day or two notice to know where. LOL (Nikki, let us know by text just in case we haven't seen this before the 12th.)

[Magik5]

read above and youll know where.... !

[Magik6]

Going off topic again though, do you have loads of vids that I don't of us biking dan? if so I want!

[Magik5]

unfortunately since my hdd crash a few months back ive lost almost everything - including all my photos of stuff

i have the above video because i found it when looking through my old website backup archive... and i reuploaded it today for all to see

[Magik6]

ah that sucks. do you want me to bring my archos down so you can grab some files to watch?

[GhOnDiE]

hi all so we are meetin up on 12th? whats the location im no fussed as got weekend off just hurry up and decide a place lol!!

[Magik5]

can people not read...

for people who cant be bothered to read a page back: GIANT CLICKY THING

and yeh, archos would be nice - tho best do it on the sunday when i can store my netbook in the car

[Magik6]

Coolio, I'll put all my south park etc on it.

[Cobolt]

Right, so as no-one else has bothered to organise this, im going to suggest this as a template for the day:

1. Meet at Waterloo station at 13:00pm (ish).
2. Find a local pub - tube tickets are pretty cheap for a day pass for the local zones so personally i dont mind doing a bit of travelling if people know a good spot for lunch.

IAWTC

[GhOnDiE]

yer im up for that colbolt, i guess that is for the sat then?

count me in!!!

[Nightling]

Well we're online and ready for the 12th. I think I'm going to get a hotel room for the night though guys. Don't much see the point of going out to the pubs and either NOT getting smashed or not being able to enjoy the "pub" night out. *shrugs* If we're going to get hammered, then let's do it properly! LOL So anyone who wants to crash at ours in case of inebriation is welcome to do so. Better to sleep it off in a hotel then risking the drive. Not really sure how strict they are in this country about all that though. Anyway, let us know!

[Magik5]

as far as im aware, everyone will be training it to london

[=R6= Raile]

i won't be around into the evening and will be walking home anyways

[Magik6]

I won't be around for the evening time either I'm affraid

[MonkeyFiend]

hmm... perhaps 6 & raile are going somewhere together?

somewhere... erotic?

[=R6= Raile]

yep and your welcome to join in

can never have too many

[Magik6]

Brighton erotic enough for you?

[fido77]

i wont be able to make it at all i will be waiting on Raile and 6
