I thought you were purely about the meth amphetamines.
You've got me. I'm like Andre Agassi. It's all about those damn meth sodas.

The 30th sounds good for drinks to me, and I think JDE said that it's best for him.
He's a Christmas fister!

I'll be around for the 30th, definitely. Will anyone be making special guest appearances before Christmas?

No helmet but Pork Mask guaranteed :D
I'll be around on the 28th & returning on 31st. Staying at my friend's hotel in Paddington - The Barryhouse (home to many London Shooter Meet Attendees in the past, 2003 onwards).
For the 30th I can be there in the evening. I'll be restricted for this visit as I'll be with the Ball n'Chain, ARH & LJH.

I'm going to be down this evening, seeing as I managed to leave behind in London a couple of the things I most need over the holidays.

Won't be around till 29th/30th after that but I'm looking forward to it.

So, my plan is to be at the arcade at 11:00-11:30 to play some beestorm. I figure if we gather around lunchtime or before then we can get some food and a few drinks then back to the arcade where Dan is going to do a No miss/No Bomb/Ura 2-all of him and james' game!

I'll be down around 12 tomorrow then, maybe a bit earlier if I get up in time.

I'm going to drop by about 6 this evening as well.

I think I'll be there about 12.30pm or 1pm.

Mrs spadgy should be with me, or if she's working, she'll be joining us once we settle in for drinks.

Any ideas yet on where we'll go? I haven't gone out around central London for years. I reckon we need to find ourselves a nice old skool traditional boozer.

I should be along around 12-1 ish. Might bring my girlfriend if you're bringing your wife Will. Will be nice to dilute the normally hyper-masculine nature of the Casino group. So we're off to lunch/pub early then, and going to the arcade after? But meeting in the arcade. Cool beans.

Great, midday it is then. The missus has plans to go shopping with a friend tomorrow to conveniently avoid all our gaming, but she'll probably join us early evening for drinks/food.

So I was going to head down this evening after meeting a friend.

But I as I reached a junction with Casino and home roughly equal distances away, having just had a lorry, aided by a large puddle, soak the few parts of me that were not already wet, and with the rain coming down so hard I couldn't see the road but rather had to navigate by memory and locate cars by their engine noise...

...I decided to go home and have a beer in the shower instead.

oh the luxury

You're just saying that because you're worried about the possible consequences of her meeting some of us.
