Glasgow MacDreddshedcon?

Satanist · 16 March, 2007, 01:24:39 PM

Right then, using the 2000AD Celebration as a cover for my escalating drink problem and inspired by the other thread who wants to meet up?

We can argue over the wheres and whens later if enough people show an interest?

Well?

The Enigmatic Dr X · 16 March, 2007, 01:26:19 PM

Drink!

I'll be there if I can make it.

I, Cosh · 16 March, 2007, 01:28:27 PM

Count me in.

Buttonman · 16 March, 2007, 01:31:45 PM

I'll come too and will even promise not to talk about letters. Much.

As for a venue you want somewhere with no pumping music and a decent seat - how about All Bar One on St Vincent Street, across from EasyInternet and 'round the corner from Forbidden Planet?

The Enigmatic Dr X · 16 March, 2007, 03:23:30 PM

Gaah! Isn't The Auctioneers the venue of choice. It has a suitably shabby veneer to make anyone feel at home.

Buttonman · 16 March, 2007, 03:51:03 PM

Didn't mean to make you Gaah! X!

As I've never been to such a gathering before I'm happy to be dictated to (although not dicked). Auctioneers is fine - no foxy ladies there to distract us from comic chat!

Tiplodocus · 16 March, 2007, 10:21:05 PM

That works for me. Venue = Auctioneers.

Next - the date.

Judge Merlin · 16 March, 2007, 10:24:50 PM

The Horseshoe bar does a great pie and pint :o)

Coopers in Central Station?

Buttonman · 16 March, 2007, 10:41:11 PM

Pfft! Have you seen the clientele of a station bar?

On reflection that may be an appropriate choice.

Are you a prospective attendee Merlin? We may have to book a function room!

Judge Merlin · 17 March, 2007, 10:12:49 PM

I live near Durham so Glasgow's about 3 and a half hours depending on the wind.

I might not be able to have a pint but I'm due a trip up that neck of the woods anyway (I stay out of Scotland too long I get the shakes).

It'll be nice to have an event northwards for a change.

Just give me plenty of notice. Is this meet going up in the review site too?

Satanist · 19 March, 2007, 03:55:20 PM

"Just give me plenty of notice. Is this meet going up in the review site too?"

The more the merrier though I'm not a member of that site so if anyone else wants to put it up.

So times. Friday or Saturday? I pretty much wing it from week to week so I'm easy. Though now I've said that I'll probably disagree with every suggestion.

Buttonman · 19 March, 2007, 05:12:22 PM

I'll be busy the weekend after next as it's my glorious birthday (April 1st - yeah ha ha!) but apart from that I'm free anytime.

Proudhuff · 20 March, 2007, 12:58:02 PM

Arrange away and I'll try and come along... bairns, shifts and herMadge all have to be scheduled in thro.

I, Cosh · 20 March, 2007, 01:18:34 PM

So, how about the first Friday in April: the 6th?

This Friday's good too, but I imagine it's probably too short notice.

The Enigmatic Dr X · 20 March, 2007, 02:18:15 PM

The 6th is Good Friday, which would rule the devout Dr X out. How about the next one? The date seems more... appropriate.
