Bump.

1.To remind you scumbags to start saying that you won't be attending.
2.To remind the few that I expect will attend that beer will be served next Wednesday. Location still the place near Fibbers?

To be honest with you I think the venue suggested is too far up towards the Creek for folk like you in the Marina.

But that being said, very little else has been suggested so I'm going to make a shout of the Belgian Beer Cafe in Tecom?

really? you and... who else? :D

I love the consensus nature to choosing the venue. Scamp, grow some balls and dictate one. If people want to come they will, you'll never agree one otherwise!

I was there last night and wouldn't mind a repeat performance. I will stay away from the cherry stuff this time though. Lethal..

I mentioned The Stables a week ago - nobody objected (even MH popped up to say it was good - I think she'll come) so I took that as a 'yes'........

Put it this way: I'm going there.............. so that's The Dean and The Shed.....

My debate with the Stables is that it isn't central. It's not a short hop from the Marina end.

Does anyone on here live over the Creek / Deira etc?

Agreed Dean. I am going to the stables.

Scamp gives up.

Well as this horsey place is practically next to my office, I'll guess I'll try and show up.

Just so we are all clear, I'll have an exit strategy in place just in case you all turn out to be a bunch of cheesecakes.

It IS 'close to' everywhere - there's a Metro stop within a stone's throw, it's right behind SZR, and it's a good venue in itself............ the only people who will find it too far are those who don't think it's worth a taxi or Metro ride to meet their fellow BE'ers........
