I'm going down the Pie & Ale House tonight with a few others.

Unfortunately, I have other plans tomorrow.

Can we nto entice any more members..... c'mon people!
yeah, it would be great if some of the less active forumites came along.. come you lurkers, we know you're there! pipe up and get yer sens some pie, mash, ale, and banter :D
We should dispatch (despatch?) Admin on a mission to find viable lurkers and email them directly with a summons!

Sorry to do this on short notice, but unfortunatly our babysitter is unwell and unless someone can suggest a replacement, Markerat will have to stay home with the kids. Any ideas people, anyone have a responsible, reliable babysitter who wont steal my stuff and have their boyfriend in the shower(whup)? Otherwise you will only get 50% rat this evening

Still looking forward to seeing you all at the lights folks, although I can't promise coming outside I'll do my best... I basically have a collapsed lung (should really be in hospital), so If I speak to any of you and get a little short of breath don't panic ;)
I'm also on bucket loads of meds which make me shake like a sh***ing dog. Basically if I come outside but look a mess you know why!! :)

:eek:

get well soon, homes! probably best to stay in the warm tonight and communicate to us through the window.. if you have anything important to pass on, you can do it through your light display :teef:

Cheers guys, but really not as bad as it sounds... This is my third time now (really should quit smoking) and it just leaves me a bit short of breath for a few days. I don't think it's as bad as last time because the steroid tablets seem to be kicking in quicker this time.

Will definately be outside tonight. Just made myself some extra snow juice for fluffier flakes incase the real snow doesn't come in time :)

It will be nice to have a few spectators outside, haven't had a single one now for almost a week.

blimey, how much happens in 24hrs!!!!!

tori, i hope you can get a sitter and wmr, i hope you are on the mend.

this is the plan for tonight:

railway from 6.30
lifts with cookie (x2 spaces) at 7.40ish from railway
lights with WMR at 8
Pie and Ale house at 8.30 til whenever (so mycult, even if youre a bit late, haul your ass in for some tea :))


ive left it as a table for 10 as originally booked which should still accomdate everybody who has said they are coming, or hope to come. im sure if we do need a couple of extra seats we can do a bit of scooching and make space if there are limited tables. however, as tonight is the night that loads of people will be hitting the 24hr shops for their shopping which they havent done today and dont want to do tomorrow....i reckon we'll be fine.

laters people,

I am going to walk up to WMRs showtacular, but would appreciate a lift to town from whoever can offer me one :P A phone and facebook round has revealed no sitters so you will be sans une Rat

Big thanks to Shoes, Torirat, Slainte, Dirtybobby & Cookie monster for your appearances at the show tonight despite the weather - it's a slippy drive when you live at the top of a big hill!!

By now you'll all be enjoying your pie & ale. Wish I could have joined you but 10 minutes in the cold has already sent me spluttering again. Hopefully I'll be able to attend a similar event in the future.

Thanks again guys & gals :)

Lovely to see everyone last night, very pleasant evening
Absolutely, was nice to interact with you all without having to use a keyboard! Wonderful pie and peas too, Chicken of Aragon is highly recommended!

Also toffee cake and baileys is a winner, I hope they start serving the cake with a shot of the good stuff!

I think that you will find that it should be un Rat - unless they did other things to him whilst he was in hospital.

And, why didn't you stay in and let him out on the razz, after all staying in's woman's work really, is he a man or mouse?

ive finally managed to make it to the pc after spending all morning in the kitchen with my mum....and then the afternoon in bed! lol

i had a super time last, thank you all for coming, to wmr for the great show (especially with extra snow!) and a huge thank you to all the pie and ale house for their fab food, attentive service and most importantly, their sheer patience with us all!

last night definitely was the start of my christmas and i was possibly more excited about it than the big day tomorrow....and i wasnt disappointed at all!

thank you again :)
