Totally confused now............ Friday is still GOOD for me if we are going out!!!

Can some one make the FINAL decision!

Apparently not. At the moment it seems to be sub judice in the truest democratic tradition. If it turns out to be a hung vote, we'll just have to live with it or have a series of meet-ups every night for a week.

Either that or a coalition.

Also, are the out of towners seriously coming, as in Butch and Flogger - not really fair for them to vote if they know they are not coming.

OK, I am going to finally and unequivocally put a stop to the dithering and say
THURSDAY...

Apologies to those who cant make it, but unfortunately someone has to be disapointed one way or the other.

Oh, I'm sure there will be no end of disappointed people once they meet me in the flesh. That's the nature of internet dating I suppose.

Here's my picture by the way, so that people will recognise me

I don't know why the thought suddenly occurred to me, but perhaps we should have the meet at the Brass Rail this time rather than Scotland Yard.

Can you start a poll please iain?

No. Are you afraid we will all be terribly dull and want some sort of, er, distraction, to pass the time...

Not sure I (or anyone else for that matter) can compete with that sort of thing...


Anyway, Im glad you said "Can you start a poll please Iain" and not "Can you start up a poll please Iain", cos that could have just been a typo

No, it didn't do much for me lustwise.

Trolling, no, unless a tummy upset counts

Hi Guys

I obviously can't make it as I live in London and am gutted that I cannot meet some of my favourite personalities/ heroes and mentors on BE.

I do however now have my PR card and there is a good chance I will fly out to live once more in Canada in late December for the New Year. If another Meet is arranged next year please definately count me in.

James
