School's Out - Heartland August 2007 Weekender

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.

Each taxi can fit 4 or 5 people in -- only 3 or 4 quid each. Not too bad.

I like your style Mark - very organised and sussed. Excellent, that makes you Dad for the night then. Cheers. :lol: :twisted: :notworthy:

Dad's responsibilites DO include accompanying the wounded to A&E, by the way.

;D

Erkle.

Right, plan (what letter are we on now? )

I can fit three (or maybe four if they're friendly ;) ) people into the fiendmobile, which I shall drive up to Dave's place some time early Saturday evening. We can hang around there until he finishes cricket, then head back into Leeds on public transport. (I'll leave the fiendmobile at Dave's.) Then I can help get some folk back into Leeds on the Sunday.

That's as far as I'm willing to go on the "dadding" stakes :lol:

You should do cricket with his kids :notworthy: Just keep in mind not to throw the ball in the general direction of the neighbours each and every time :lol:

I'm sure they bloody well wouldn't Sinnie. I'm really sure you'll have better things to do on the Saturday, which is kinda a shame, cos there's some images in my head now that just won't shift! :innocent: :innocent: :twisted:

I was hoping to play at home (just down the road) with the second team, but they ain't got a game, so I'll be off to the far flung parts of Barnsley way with the firsts. Bugger. On a positive note, we're really sh1t, so it might be over early.

Book me in for the garden/garage fest ( :notworthy: ), although I may have to take off my Docs to preserve the no-doubt priceless Turkish rugs. :lol:

Watch it, Dave - you're no match. :twisted: Especially when I've got my steel-toed 20-eyes on... :innocent:


What of d00meh, the good Missus Richey James, et al.?


And does this mean that the southern contingent really refuses to drive a scant handful of hours for a weekend that promises to be full of mischief and mayhem? For shame. Pffffft. :roll:

:eek: Aha!

Actually, my home-away-from-home whilst traipsing around on the correct side of The Pond will be my cousin's lovely cottage near Oxford. That's rather close to London, innit?
