Az · May 28, 2003, 14:22

I hope you'll come.

So, people, any suggestions of what will we do? or better leave it for July?

*End Is Forever* · May 28, 2003, 14:55

Az · May 28, 2003, 15:08

Heh that "big ferris wheel thingy" ( a.k.a The Millenium Wheel )

Its actually known as "The London Eye".

I maybe up for a meet, dont know any of you but guess it could be a laugh. A night on the town no doubt.

Drogue · May 28, 2003, 18:24

Night on the town sounds good. Anyone here London regular, and know decent pubs/clubs? We could try the London Eye, although not sure if it's worth it?

*End Is Forever* · May 28, 2003, 19:42

I'm not clubbing in London and paying five quid for a ****ing Bacardi Breezer.

Drogue · May 28, 2003, 20:05

What do you suggest EIF?

Makeo · May 29, 2003, 04:11

Dark alley and a bottle of metho?

I thought our prices were expensive!

And yes, I'd love to go clubbing in London. helluva experience.

hehe that too, I was going to put that but wasnt 100% sure of it ( as i said not been on it and not working in centre at moment ).

£3 a pint isnt too bad... its when you want girly drinks that the price skyrockets

Az · May 29, 2003, 08:24

a breezer is not a girly drink.

I'd probably be taking tequila shots, anyway.

Locutus · May 29, 2003, 08:59

Well, seeing who else is coming/considering to come, I would certainly seriously consider joining the fun... But I'd need to make travel and accomodation arrangements, so I need to know time/date well in advance (hmm, maybe Zop and I could travel together?)

I hate clubbing, always have. I've been to a few London clubs on the insistence of friends, but after I got dragged by a friend to one that appeared to only play death metal I vowed never to be dragged clubbing again.

That'd be cool if you guys could make it

Az · May 29, 2003, 11:40

Locutus: As I said, I don't have the exact dates on which I will be available.

All I know is that this will be between the 3rd, and the 9th.

How about we go to "Club" clubs?

Locutus · May 29, 2003, 13:15

Azazel,
So you'll only know 1 or 2 days in advance?

I'm afraid that won't do me or (probably) Zop any good. And I'd expect most of the British folks have a life as well, and would like to be able to plan this to some extent...

Immortal Wombat · May 29, 2003, 13:23

If nothing else so we know which evenings to go to bed before 3am to get up in time for the train.

Zopperoni · May 29, 2003, 13:36

Which date would suit the British folks best?

Immortal Wombat · May 29, 2003, 13:48

Saturday's are generally preferable. So the 9th in this case.

Zopperoni · May 29, 2003, 13:53

Hm, OK, but I don't know if Azazel leaves on the 9th or not. If he leaves during the day on Saturday, we might need to shift to Friday.

Az · May 29, 2003, 14:07

I am leaving at the 9th. Sorry.

Zopperoni · May 29, 2003, 14:26

...but having the meeting on Friday would be fine?

I can't remember the name of the club, but it wasn't far from Soho. We stopped off in The Intrepid Fox (? - something to do with a fox at any rate) beforehand. If you like metal then you'd probably like that pub.

Not my scene though.

Az · May 29, 2003, 16:08

Friday is the 8th? Well, I don't want to gurantee.

I'll try and find out the timetable of the scheduled things to do. I wanted to hang out with you guys not just at night.

Zopperoni · May 29, 2003, 16:58

This is the current list of interested:

Makeo
Big Crunch
Drogue
Immortal Wombat
End is Forever

(Boddington's)
(Elijah)
(Demerzel)
(MikeH)
(Laz)
(Barley)
(Locutus)
(Zopperoni)

Alright, the time period we have is Monday August 4th through Friday August 8th.

Now, which day would suit you people best?

Az · May 29, 2003, 17:03

For the nights: almost any night, I suppose.

Drogue · May 29, 2003, 17:15

Friday 8th sounds good.

Clubbing in London has the advantage of being able to remember it easier, being less booze (due to price). And anyway, it should be done once, it's quite different to anywhere else IMHO, even if it is expensive.

Breezers are girly drinks (look at the FHM "how girly is your drink" chart

) but why does that matter? Personally I prefer spirits, but they're good for dancing with (can't have pints or shots for that).

Anyways, we could go out in London, and decide depending on whos there whether to go club/pub or even cinema (big leister square cinemas) if people want.
