blummin 'eck! killing joke. dammit. we were going to try and get to that too... didnt realise it was the same weekend :urff: :| oh well :lol:





so, do many people think they will be able to come for the friday and/or sunday too?

there's quite a good night called 'midlife crisis' which is on the friday, the night before sin - its only been going a couple of months so who knows what will be happening with it by october, but we've enjoyed it so far. we could invade that if its still around then :)

likewise, if people will be around for the sunday evening there are a few options for a nice pint in a pub, and depending on which pub we choose, they might have a dj we can harass into playing some of our tunes 8)

it all depends on whether people will be around for the whole weekend of just the saturday.

i'll see what i can sort out.

cheers snowey (damn you!) :roll: :lol:

I'll just say the one word that will make sure I won't be watching KJ ...."London"

It's so fookin expensive. I have a mate who lives 40 miles away from London and it's cheaper for him and his better half to fly to Berlin to watch KJ there. Tickets for the Berlin show are only 15 euros and I think the London ones are £20?? Rip off england.

Aye that's true but I can't get there in time for any of them - 60 days holiday a year but I can't choose when to have them :innocent:

I'll give it some thought, looking forward to seeing mh in May and plans for Amsterdam are now tentative.

Heartland has been a great place for me but I'm not sure if I'm going to be around much anymore :|

Er, not liking the way things are going here...

I was tempted to ask about Friday, I'd probably stay the Fri/Sat nights, and maybe push off late Sunday or stick around, and cop Monday off work.

Basically, once I get started, it's damn hard to get me to stop.

So to speak.

Is there something bad going on then? I can't say I've noticed if there are "issues" to be honest.

Anyhoo, regarding the meet it's far enough in advance to book enough time to go to all three nights or at least the saturday and one of the others and there's plenty of time to get money together.

Okay here goes as you lot are as worried as I am...

After seeing his post I texted my buddy (weebies) and he said he's not okay but doesn't want to talk about it yet...

Give him time folks I would think. Send out strength vibes though!

He came in here today scotty so I'm sure knowing Weebs he'll come back.

In difficult times most of us leave this place for awhile to sort things in real life but true cyber friends come back...

I've got a list going of people going through a dip in their lives and know from experience you need time alone to sort things out. We love and miss them all but friends are here through all the times and when some are weak others are stronger and that helps in life as we shall all learn.

nicely put, mb :notworthy:

online communities are strange beasts. they can be very immersive if you let them, but its important to maintain a balance between the real world and the online one :)

one of the things i'm proud of about HL is the way we have all created an open door policy... you'refree to wander in and stay for a while, and you're every bit as free to pop out for a while, for a fag break or whatever :lol:

and the door stays open, should you need to come back inside from the cold once in a while ;)

all the best, weebs.

:eek: then "phew!"
Can't add to what's been said here.

Personally when it comes to people taking a sabbatical (extended or otherwise) from HL... it always makes me sad but what matters most is that true friends, if they have been made, stay friends. Whether this place is used as a virtual pub to have a drink in or not is a side issue really.

:kiss: Weebs. Hope whatever's troubling you sorts itself out, I really do.

Love, the Big Wumman ;D

I expect to see hunners of you there, if not I'm sure Quiff Boy will allow me to PUNISH you all SEVERELY! :twisted:

Me? Sorry I always get confused a bit now as there is someone with a username "Libby"! :oops:

If you meant me, I shall book time off when I see more definate yesses from people! Didn't get to speak to everyone enough (especially Claire) at the Violets gig due to having 15,000 cousins there who I hadn't seen for a very long time, though there will be no distractions this time!
