Default The Mission compatible BE Meet Up (Mission Impossible)

So most of us missed the chance to meet Mission last evening as she couldn't make it, so I propose another meet up thats definitely compatible with her schedule

It will be on a Monday or a Saturday (to avoid bouncing).

It will be at least 1 hour away from Jumeriah 1 (I'm thinking Al Ain?)

We need to try and find somewhere with a happy hour that runs from 12am-3am.

Easy Innit??

Just spat water on my screen.

We need Mission to give us the list of requirements for things like; drinks available, dance floor size, temperature, parking facilities etc.

You know perfectly well despite everything she'd still not turn up

Because of something to do with bouncing.

YOU BUNCH OF P*SS TAKERS

once again i will set the record straight!! I have never said i will come and then not turned up without saying i will not be there (unlike some others *cough* DUBS & IKN*cough*)....i have only ever been to 1 pre-organised meet up in which if i remember correctly both MILLY and SCAMPY were a no show....and in that meet up i met IBK and BRAIN for the first time and we three had a blast!
Since then i have met IBK a few times, again with MILLY and SCAMPY being a no show
So you all need to stick that in your pipes and smoke it
SHED i would definitely like to meet you one of these days In Shaa Allah

Unfortunately will probably never happen as I go to football on saturdays and am normally traveling on Mondays. Add to that I’m never out after 10pm .

Well, if anyone's interested (totally out of 'left field') - I'll be in Dubai for the very first time ever from 27 Oct to 3 Nov.

The Shed claims he knows me so I'll be trying to hook up with him, but I'd like to meet more of you if I can........

Suggestions gladly received.

In which case I suggest Wed 1st somewhere up this end town (its our turn). Tecom, marina, palm etc

It’s a long way off but we can all plan I suspect.

Your ability and apparent desire to function on minimal sleep is commendable.

What if we went on another night to satisfy your need to bounce to be fit?
