Beer anyone?
 
Afternoon to one and all,

Recently, a thread started about a hotel banning booze in Egpyt, it since morphed a few times into a debate about the health aspects (positive and negative) of said grog. Since it has shifted again to another blinding debate with some overseas friends about religion. At least it's peaceful so far.

All this debating (and popcorn eating) has made me realise that we all haven't had a pint recently....apart from Kix and Blue Cat's toyboy...

So who is interested in a pint?

Normally we like Wednesday don't we?

15th?
22nd?
29th?

OPEN to suggestions on days preferred and locations....or we'll just say The Stables again (seeing as Commander isn't here to moan. In fact, where is he?)

True. Another viable option. Although I got fined for not buying a correct ticket.

If you click on his profile it says that Commander's been banned.

Apparently not long ago. Sometime in the closing days of April.

Wonder what he did as I don't remember a particularly rambunctious thread leading to bannings.

I expect so, we'll let this thread run a little and then we'll eventually settle on a date.

Do we all prefer Wednesdays?

Poshy May 9th 2013 5:50 am

No, I prefer a Thursday when I don't have to get up at 5.45am the next day :blink:

Ditto, on a school night I'll only have coke and I'm really really boring when sober, only moderately less so when drunk.
