Can't make it this week, or the two after that, but looking forward to a long and protracted session the night before Good Friday (when all the pubs are closed I believe).

Maybe we shoult try and plan something for that too...

Hi All,

Sorry have been a little quiet, actually been a little ill and had to go hospital! Trust me - i am not trying to stand in for Swerv-O!!!
Anyhoo, sounds like a few are up for drinks on Thursday. I'm up for meeting up after i kinda messed up my social plans last week, would be good to catch up. So then, time to pick a venue - must admit i did like the brief visit to the RedOak last week and could easily sample some more beers before heading on. Anyone have any exciting new suggestions?

Love them smilies!

DOn't know whether we'll be out this week or not (I think my liver's on the verge of collapsing ). So I'll keep an eye out for the location and whatnot and let you know last thing on Thursday afternoon. Sorry to be a bit vague.

C - what on earth have you been up to?! Hope you're doing OK?

Goodness me IndigoFoot, what on earth have you been getting up to? I at least hope that your afflication affected a different part of your body to Swerv-os!

I think my answer about this Thursday is going to be similar to GG's. Him indoors definitely can't make it & I'm not sure at the moment, but will keep an eye on developments.

OMG IndigoFoot! If this is what happens when you volunteer to be social secretary, I'm never offering my services... Hope you're okay now and everything.

Tomorrow night - I've been sick myself, but hoping to be back at work tomorrow (I must be feeling better if I'm on here). Also scheduled to do some more editing work, but may be able to have one or two drinks.

'Fraid I definitely won't be out tonight. Have come down with an evil cold How bizarre is that you have to sign to buy cold & flu relief tablets?? I'm expecting them to be super strength and to restore me to full health in less than 24 hours

Oh dear! Am sorry to hear that. I do have some grapes and lucozade left over if you want them?! Looks like people are dropping like flies this week.
Get well soon though!
Any healthy people out there?

Well, I made it into work but the antibiotics haven't worked their magic yet so I won't be out tonight (unless I have a miraculous recovery, fingers crossed, you never know, although work usually has the opposite effect on me )

Sorry to hear chels, you hang in there pet! Sure those magic pills will work wonders. Just have to make it through the day eh?! Make sure there is nothing sharp on your desk in case you have to have an emergency nap!

Must admit i'm suspecting Swerv-O of voodoo... Bet he's sitting in nice cosy english bar, drinking frothy mead whilst conjuring plagues for us all! Only kidding. But i will text the evil wizard to make sure!

Nice cosy bar in Leicester? - ha ha ha!!!! Funnily enough, he seems quite keen on returning to Sydney, and reclaiming his position as master of meet ups.

Mmmm. Leicester - fair point!
He will always be the master of the meet ups though, don't look to me for such organisational skills... I just beg people to go out for drinks and then they are struck down with tropical diseases or possibly gout.
Maybe i should shower more!

Will keep an eye on the forum this afternoon, see if there is any lazarus-esq action, or more takers. Think its just 2 of us and GG-possible? Any one else?

Whoa. Another one?! Sorry to hear that shell. Wrap up warm and drink lots of fluids! Feel like a doctor doing the rounds today.

What happened last week after i left, you guys all started sneezing on each other? Don't want to think what else you got up to! Pash-fest! I'll start spreading the rumours now

Seriously, you poor folk - get well soon.

If you think I'm meeting up with you now after you've given everyone else the dreaded lurge, you've got another thing coming.

I'm afraid we're no shows, too. Mr GG went to work for 6 am this morning, so is knackered and wants an early night. I'm snowed under with uni stuff, trying to catch up from last week where I missed a lot of study time due to the outlaws being here.

Hope to be out next week though - time off for good behaviour.
