Hi all, been absent for a while, apologies - just wanted to say that I hope this evening went well in Leeds - my excuse for not being there is I just proposed to make an honest woman of Mrs Zuma
(and she said yes!)
Best wishes all!

Nice one
Zuma hope she accepted?
I thought there might have been a few stragglers in here by now...
Congrats!

Congrats Zuma massive
Great night. Well done all
had to head of early due to Mrs Ed being rather under the weather
Only complaint was I was talking to Mrs Snowey and Paddy came past and stuck our conversation in the trash bin

Just got in... Top night with the only downside being Mr Snowey having to drive home as we couldn't be bothered staying in Leeds. Only took us 1 hour 15 mins door to door
It was nice to put names to some faces Doomie, Thrash (and his two women) MockEldridge and special mention to Izzy "Tetley is s**t" mercy.
Oh Paddy Stoats are harder than Badgers..It's true

Couldn't make it but I had a nice phone call from Quiff at around 9pm .... he reckoned it would have to be cancelled if I didn't turn up
Hope you all had a nice time.

RAWK!
a f*cking great night.
just got back in, after dropping doomy off in the middle of nowhere
stunned to think that she was prepared to go and wait in leeds coach station until 6am for a coach back home, where she would thenb have to get a train back to her village, just to come to the blummin HL do!! RESPECT!
and i cant believe we did a trip to sheffield/snake pass, and then i came up with the idea that it might be quicker just to go back via glossop and te m62...
do not, i repeat DO NOT ever let me near a map again.
leeds --> sheffield --> snake pass --> glossop --> ashton --> m62 -- leeds
wtf? i need my bumps felt for coming up with that theory!
all hail the mighty mrs quiff boy, provider of transport to the world
a huge thank you to all who made it - be they from near or afar. your effort and your presence (and your 2 quid) were appreciated
and a major thanks to fraser, ed, dj paul, pads & everyone else who helped out for making it possible.
@ ed: mate, your lighting rig ROCKS!!! oh yes
am off to bed now. see y'all for a repeat performance at the smurphs gig later tonight? 'AVE I!
(i booked monday off work - hoping for a good one this eve
)
so, same time next year?

Congrats Zuma
just got in.
what a fantastic night
great to put faces to avatars
Thanks for brilliant night, great music at one point I thought I'd never get off the dancefloor
not to mention lots of beer
Maybe badges next time would be a good idea
not sure why CellThree had a semi automatic pistol and a pound of symtex in his pocket though
oh and nobody warned me that the Metropole Hotel was host to a Johnny Mathes convention last night
WHAT A NIGHT

It took us long enough to get you up there!!! Sheeesh
Tippity toppity night. Loved the fact it took a Chams track to fill the dance floor
Had a most excellent night - Jo said it was the best night ever - but she says that everytime we go out together
HUGE HUGE hug to the provider of the most wonderful chockie treat just before I left - PiB your a star ...but it was just recompense for having to stand through that tale of your bank card trauma
@ Pads - Badgers may be hard but they don't look so menacing when they've een turned into an item of men's grooming apparral
@ SI - am still waiting for that voddie, lime and soda
@ those with cameras
To the Dj's many many thanks.
To all the peeps I managed to have a natter with/at/to massive hugs
And to Quiffles

It's better to be behind a camera than in front of one I find...
Anyway I seem to have managed to not upload any pics of Debaser so I'm not all bad!

Congrats to Mr & Mrs Zuma!
Nice to hear you guys had a nice time at HL shindig, now who's gonna spill the gossip from the night!!, who got the most drunk?

Congrats Zuma!
Nice to put a few more faces to names - apologies for dragging Ed away at midnight, but he turns into a pumpkin if I don't...actually it was all my fault we had to leave early-ish, as uncontrollable raging hay fever was filling my sinuses with an amalgam of itching powder & cement all night. Not very rock'n'roll I'm afraid...
Sorry to miss the Smurphing tonight, but I am still the Allergy Beast & not allowed out. Next time!

too often could be seen as overbombing...so maybe every 3 months is asking to much
yearly is just not on...can't wait that long for a chance to meet some of you nutters
6 months is about the time frame for most folks to be able to get time and capital together for a small bevvy session...BUT...can we try to get it moved to spring/autumn time as driving up to Leeds in the winter just doesn't do it for me...Brrrrrrr...
anyways...thats my 2 cents...

It's also the festering season Burn bad weather and most of the leading lights have wife and kids.
sorry

I'd recommend the weekend of Feb 26 ... largely because work will be taking me to Leeds that Saturday.
I'm guessing Dec 28 (Rotherham) is going to be tricky, and my other Yorkshire game is a bit soon on Sep 11 at Sheff Utd.
