Thumbs up Pink Aviatior Bash, London 07th August.

As many of you know, Pinkster is coming to London for a few days on her way to Paris.

I suggest a bash on the evening of Thursday 7th August at The Old Bank of England pub on Fleet Street.

This has been thrown open to everyone rather than just our forum so hopefully a few people should turn up after work. I know its short notice but there you go. Lets welcome Pinkster to London with a few drinks.

See you there.

Sadly won't make it to London then

Snoop PINKSTERS PREPARING TO MEET SOME PPRUNES

Hope ,you recognise me, and I find the pub
as its a BANK i'm sure to find it,as i'm always being summoned to speak to the manager.

(I always thought it was husbands who got cross at over spending,and used the words BUDGETS.
Why does the bank manager always seem so interesred in my spending sprees.

ANY way, I'll be fresh from the matinee "blood brothers",so will have a spring in my step.
Do you think you will see me first ,before i see you?

sorry you cant make it kentish and westy, may be december.

I suspect that many (the majority?) of us don't know who this 'Pinkster' is - perhaps you could enlighten us?

Snoop Gosh NOT heard of the pinkster

I do not know if i can or should answer this but have just seen you comment and will try to be brief
(that will be a first)

Basicall, I am a nobody.
JUST started ,flying at Easter
Just wanted a pair of pink head sets,
Just happened to get a crush on FI , who was 18 years my junior,
Just tried to get up to mischief in the cockpit with him,
Just ,he wasn't having any of it
Just happened to mention it all on the PINK HEAD SET thread,
Just happened to go solo ,with every body reading about it,,
Just happenned to exsperiance every excitement,and trauma of my lessons on thread,
Just a few lessons now off my skills test,
AND
have just enjoyed sharing ,and gaining exsperiance and confidence with all the pprunnes who were interested.

OH yes , and was abandoned publicly by FI who went to soar the sky ways new,(without me )

THATS THE PINKSTER,
PINK AVIATOR

Tredders. You will be more than welcome to join us in the pub. Hope to see you there.

NR Any chance of you joining us on the 7th? I still owe you a drink or two...... (he gave me my first ever go in a helicopter....)

Looks like there could be a handfull turning up, thats not too bad for such short notice and a Thursday night too. Those of you who work in the city, just drop in for 5 mins on your way home.....

(oh, and Pinkster there is no excuse for not bringing some shortbread and flapjacks down with you..... )

Snoop eeeer yes BRL

Big excuse for not bringing short bread, like No AGA enroute, and I only serve the freshest produce, so it can be enjoyed and savoired to the full,
So sorry ,not this time,with the sweet crisp melt in your mouth biscuits, you will just have to get a plane with a big tank and Fly in and UP here.

What time shall i make my entrance,(sorry confused , i'm not appearing on stage ,just,watching at the theatre first.
S o shall i come straight to the pub,from matinnee,,about 6 oclock I suppose, when i've worked out where fleet street is.
I 'm familiar with the strand ,for obvious reasons, but have a map,and if i can read an aerial one ,i'm sure an A- Z will be easy peasy.
see you soon.

Hope the 'Pink Bashette' goes well - maybe we should issue a NOTAM for the area to ensure that the aviation community is aware of it

I will offer my apologies, Pinkster, but due to geography, I shall be unable to make it.

I shall, however be making a fleeting visit through the 'Big Smoke' tomorrow, arriving at Euston on the sleeper from EDI, heading to Victoria to get a train down to TkF land for a mid-morning meeting, then returning for a train around 1500 to head back North for the haggis-hunting season!! As Mrs CB will be collecting me at EDI station, I won't have a chance to indulge in a bashette!

Still, if you're anywhere around a certain aviation emporium in Victoria between 1400 - 1500 and someone comes in to buy a new Scottish half mill chart, it's more than likely going to be me!!!

OK, OK - You've Twisted my Arm...

As it's so near to work, I'll simply have to pop-in on the way home I suppose

There is one, um, condition:

Someone has to send me home if I get tiddly The dentists' fees from the last bash are already eating into my flying budget

(A word of advice Pinky, PFL's on the pavement near Bank station are a baaaaaaad idea - especially when uncertain of Weight and Balance)
