An open invitation

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.

Any HL'ers in Leeds on the 27th March. Come to the West End for a few drinks for my 40th birthday. Food (a buffet) will be available—until we've eaten it all.

You're welcome.

F*ck it, it's just a number. A coincidence of the combination of the length of our year and our counting system. If we used sensible units I'm about 1.26 Gs old ;)

Actually that's all a complete lie; I'm sh!tting bricks :lol:

Sorry sir, but the powers that be have decided that, the 27th is the day the holiday season starts, and thats all weekends gone until november.... Sure you will enjoy yourself though.
we're better than the birthday party, but not as good as motorhead, that makes us pretty damn good!!!!

Hey Mark, 40's not so bad you know! :wink:

We're actually going to be at a party over in Roundhay later on on Saturday, what time are you heading down to the West End? Be good to catch up with you if we can, we're usually quite good at bumping into each other there anyway! :D

Cheers,

Michael and Joyce x
