Post The Nottingham Chapter (Revisited)

Sorry Guys and Gals, I've been away for a few days.

I've had a few replies and due the impending Crimbo it's been suggested that we meet mid January, any thoughts?

If you could post your replies here so I know who's interested in a little food and refreshment in a suitable location mid Jan I'll get on the case.

Cheers and Merry Christmas to you all.

Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer !!!! C'mon guys lets get this Nottingham thing rolling. We are blessed with being in one of the best places in the UK to socialise over some bevvies.

What a great opportunity to put faces to names and share info & ideas about the one thing we all know we want out of life.

surely it can't hurt that much to say yes ?

Could I suggest the West Side of Nottingham? i.e somewhere like Risley, Sandiacre, Long Eaton. Gives me a better chance of getting Mrs QNH to drive me home. (Gave up sleeping in gutters years ago.)

Any time/date/place is fine for me. Mid Jan sounds great.

How much do you reckon a taxi to Retford would cost?

Cheers

Anyone read 02FO - what the hell are you doing on here then, you know its not allowed !

Schooner,

terribly sorry about Wednesday night - I went to the game half way through my works do and was completely trashed by half time - bit like the team. You can't account for an injury list like that but hopefully young David will turn things around again with a bit of financial help.

Anywhere in the city centre near Shimla Pinks' (Indian), or Trent Bridge (Italian), or Mansfield Road (Encounters). Let's go for it. Be nice to put faces to names.

(The students can get the first round in!) Cheers, guys, and merry Christmas!

Great response,

Looks like we got ourselves a convoy!!!

I'll post shortly after Christmas with a few ideas (I need to get a map of Nottingham out to try and keep everyone happy) and maybe try and match a few up with a carshare/taxi.

In the mean time keep posting, keep smiling and keep flying the right way up.

Seasons greetings to you all, have a safe one.

Pencil it in your diaries and I will arrange a venue depending on numbers etc...

Thats the idea .

As far as I know, I'll be just about the only one not from Nottingham itself (I live in Retford).

The Pitcher and Piano has been suggested as a central point, does anyone have any objections?

Can I be involved in this piss up please??I'm a nottingham lad myself. The pitcher and piano will be a goodplace to meet apart from its size, Alter ego would probably be better as it is smaller and less busy...except on a Saturday

Unhappy

OK guys, as TBL is not allowed to look at the internet anymore (His IT dept. unsportingly decided it was about time he did some work for a change) I thought I'd post about the current state of affairs.

Saturday January 20th - Pitcher & Piano (sorry for those of you who wanted somewhere a bit further out but you know it makes sense to meet in town). This pub gets busy on a saturday night - so how are we going to recognise each other ? TBL reckons he's going to carry a balloon around with him with the Pprune logo on it - could be fun.

If we are eating at the P&P (I'll check if they do food on a saturday night) then we'll reserve a table and post on here whereabouts it is.

All who have posted on this thread asking if they can join in - of course you can - the more the merrier.

Cheers

Sir BC
