Dark Age Meet - Post Mortem

[PJMCBear]

Gutted I couldn't make this meet. Really gutted! So go on everyone, tell me how it went, and how great a time you had. Pictures would be good to really rub it in.

Started the new thread because I thought the other was a bit full.

I know what you mean PJ. I would have loved to have gone but I couldn't get the time off

 

[PJMCBear]

Oh, I had time off work, but something came down - SWMBOs foot!

Did she also mutter something about a certain date and being together for it?

 

[PJMCBear]

That did come up, yes, and where is she? Gone to bed with a hot toddy (not Mary), using the last of my flippin' malt.

Flipin heck! that's a coincidence. Both Val and I have had really bad flu all week (that's why I pulled out). I went to fill my hip flask so I'd have a wee sip by the computer, and when I went for the bottle of Jura, found it was empty. I asked her where the Jura was and she told me she'd used it for the Toddy's we'd had each evening before bed. I asked her why she didn't just use the Sainsbury's own brand whisky and she said "Oh, that one was already open"! What can you say?

What can you say?

Nothing that can be printed or repeated if you value your life :tapedshut

But then again we didn't get to our wise old ages without learning some survival skills in how to deal with irate beasties

Yeah!! We were all gutted that you missed it too. Those that know you wished you there and the rest of us all said "we wanted to meet eric". I have ye olde consumption too, but at least I was thoughful I turned up to cough and splutter my pestilance over the village .
None of vistors would stay in our house for long once I started hacking up though, which was a shame, I quite liked having the trickle of joe public popping in for a chat.

Lovely weekend.
Thank you Wayland.
