McHeartland Christmas gathering?

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

OK, how's about it? I was discussing it with Blast and he can't make weekdays and I'll be away between 20 and 27 December. Of course there would be no reason why it couldn't take place without us but, we're most often the only ones who turn up for these things! Anyway, I'm up for suggestions about when and where.

What about a "Post" Christmas - New Year Friday or Satarday if more people could make it?.

I'm up for that. Will be bloody busy though. Saying that, I'm sure we met up around then last year. It'll need to be somewhere we can hear ourselves speak though. The Horseshoe was quite good but their toilets are almost as bad as the Phono's. The 13th Note was good as well, and thier bogs were far better.

How much bloody time do plan to spend in the bogs Andrew? :innocent: :twisted: , what about "The Griffin" again or the "Nice & Sleazy"?.

It's the cider that does it. :lol: Sleazy's is having a total makeover just now so I'm not sure it'll still be Sleazy's when it reopens. The Griffin's handy for me and should at least be free of dreadful Christmas music.

Someone remind me why I've got Wednesday 28th December coloured in on my calendar!

My thoughts exactly. But then again, you'll always find me in the toilets when it's my round.:innocent:

I think the "Sleazy" opens on Christmas Eve, and did "The Griffin" not have "Moonchild" playing the last time Andrew :D .

@Boudicca, you bloody well better be there my girl or you will receive "smacked legs" upon our next meeting :twisted: :kiss: .

@Francis, that was the first date put forward by The Barman, but as Andrew said, he can't manage that now.

You don't need to worry this time, what with it being around Chrimbo hopefully I won't have undergone four days of virtual starvation, sleep deprivation, and running around Leeds like a blue-arsed fly. :lol:

@Francis - I expected better from you! :P

Thanks for kick starting this one Andrew :notworthy:
The 28th looked real good for me to begin with, but it turns out I have to work that week and meeting you lot on a school night just doesn't seem right. As for venue, I favour The Griffin - good beers, friendly atmos, fast service and toilets that aren't a three day camel trek away (a'la 13th Note). Weekend nights are good for me or the week after Mahogany. I'm sure we can get oor shyte thi 'gither and gie thay soft southern Jessies a guid showin' up this time :D
