Seeing as noone has replied to this as probably wondering who (if anyone is going). Myself and Rachael will be present.

sideways, thoroughly used, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming... "f*ck, what a trip!"

Hi Guys,
The November meet will be on the 7th of November. Usual place and time, I don't know whether i'll be there though as im having eye surgery
on the 4th and i don't know what my vision will be like or whether i'll be able to drive.
At Martin: If i'm not able to make it, could you collect the money for the deposits please, as your the one that lives closest to me and i
could pop over to yours later in the week.
Cheers
Alex

Dave sent me a u2u, i replied, and then he never got back to me,
Have heard nothing from Mike.
i would imagine they can still attend, but they won't be able to choose from the selected christmas menu
