Heartland meet up - Manchester - October 2008

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.

Bugger. :cry:
Kerry says she'll miss you. And so will I.

By the way everyone else, I think Kerry and I will arrive at retro about 8pm.

Home now. The drive back East was a lot more enjoyable than the motorway in the middle of a storm. We didn't get to the Retro till well after 10.

What was with all the trannies? :lol:

I'll post some pictures tomorrow.

Home safe, utterly wrecked, tired cold and hungover (ma puir wee heid!) but happy. Cracking night out, :notworthy: to all.

Manchester in the rain at twilight as the lights are starting to come on - can't get more Joy Division than that! Who's bright idea was it to go for a walk anyway? :lol:

Top night once again, big thanks to all who made it so and especially to the Boss for, well just everything basically :notworthy:

Good to see a new face in the shape of Rob, I hope we haven't put you off attending future gatherings (though you did seem rather taken with at least one of the locals :innocent: )

And apologies if I have now rendered 'Desire' by GLJ impossible for some of you to listen to ever again :oops: :lol:

You people rock :notworthy:

:notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:
