Count me in Magician.
Perhaps we should try somewhere else this time. The Oxo tower is a bit crowded and noisy. |

By:
Signing in from Nicaragua, of all places :D

I have a recurring nightmare that the first time I turn up for one of these we will be mistaken for a group of celebrating financial ponces and riddled with bullets by one of my own red terror cells. :-(

I'll have to cancel as a mate is getting married. He's only known her nine months. I'm not getting an invitation to the day due just the night due as he's as tight as two coats of paint.
|
|
By:
That's a shame, Get On MASSIVE. We could have kidnapped The Magician into a seedy nightspot.....
|
|
By:
come on guys... this should be a good night.
does it not suit? or are not many interested this year? |
|
By:
I think half the problem is so many forumites are banned. I think Dr Who is in exile. I thought pumpkin slayer might have been on.
|
|
By:
Count me in.
|
|
By:
what did Dr who do?
|
|
By:
I think he was banned for an anti pc posting, but will stand corrected.
|
|
By:
I should be able to make it this time.
|
|
By:
I will try to make it.
|
|
By:
I'm not going if Muqbils going, he's far too smart for me - he told me so :p
|
|
By:
Happy to join in with the blindfold chess, as long as the moves are algebraic :D
|
|
By:
lol, there you go again, quietgenius :) I have always thought anything said on here was pretty much harmless banter, it can be quite good fun putting a face to names that have called you any manner of names in the past!
Will be happy to buy you a beer m8 :) The Investor, I used to try and play blindfold chess with a guy I worked with, many years ago, he was very good I wasn't! Even after one or two pints it is incredibly difficult for my grey matter! |
|
By:
still not many confirmed?
|
|
By:
yes I will come
|
|
By:
will be good to see you mate
|
|
By:
i'd be more interested in the Bisto tower personally
|
|
By:
ttt
|
|
By:
Any details on the venue / time?
I am still hoping pumpkinslayer shows up, The Investor. We could form a 2 man team to challenge him at chess, he is something of a hustler at the game.... |
|
By:
will sort this out tonight
|
|
By:
Thanks
|
|
By:
Would like to come but can't make it - next year will try! Enjoy - and well done Bayes.
|
|
By:
OK
last call..... for anyone coming to drinks and dinner also after dinner Casino or club? Perhaps both - are people willing to dress slightly smart - so we can go somewhere nice? |
|
By:
Would be good muqbil. enjoyed speaking with him last year.
Magician, don't know about the rest of you, but I would definitely prefer going to a club after. I'll wear dark shoes, jeans and shirt/jacket, should be fine to get in anywhere. |
|
By:
What's the 21st of November got to do with Xmas? You may aswell celebrate Halloween.
|
|
By:
At Christmas most people are with their family. Also, if everyone had their Christmas party at the same time, there wouldn't be any space to move.
|
|
By:
Club afterwards sounds good, I am happy to go with the flow, whatever that may be.
|
|
By:
thanks for the invite magician,had a great time last year(formerley big punter).look forward to it again
|

Nice to know, I'd hate to clash. |
|
By:
Yeah, if you're wearing the same, wear some flashy sunglasses and/or jewelry.
A bright red cap would work also. |
|
By:
I'm 73 so I have difficulty getting in to most clubs.

Magician
Would love to join you again this year but as I get older (happens to the best of us, unfortunately) I find that the difficulties associated with it such as digestive disorders, flatulence, back ache,tiredness, incontinence, attention deficit disorder, low boredom threshold,low tolerance of others behaviour, propensity to rant, unwillingness to waste time on trivia, jealousy of those who are younger, with more stamina; different values, different sense of humour, lack of energy,need for sleep, etc etc make it an impossible invitation to accept, albeit I did enjoy the occasion last year together with your immense hospitality. I wish you a great evening....enjoy it while you can! |
|
By:
Count me in for the 21st Magician. Looking forward to it.
|
|
By:
And I think I speak for a friend who came last year when I say he'll come again. I'll confirm asap on that.
