Nah, not at all true - we even had a mooch around the art gallery.

Didn't undertsand any of it mind, given we're inherently thicko Northerners, but we graced the artistic portals if nowt else.

 

[blairsh]

Last time i went to Manchester for a drink all my friends when to a gallery beforehand. By the time i met them about 30minutes after they left the gallery, they were all fucked

Booze tally for the afternoon - three pints and one G & T and a 5 mile walk. It only goes horribly and drunkenly wrong when wrong 'uns like friedaweed and Shirl are in attendance...

 

[farmerbarleymow]

T'was good to meet timeforanother mauvais and Fez909 today.

 

[Callie]

How very civilised, never knew you Northerns had it in you

We surprise ourselves sometimes.

 

[timeforanother]

It was a smallish meet up, but the conversation didn't lack. Lovely to meet everyone.

Maybe we can do the steam trains in the new year, and make more clear that any brats in tow are more than welcome. Maybe with beer breaks in places chosen that accomodate them properly.

 

[farmerbarleymow]

And mauvais is indeed stereotypically French - beret, onions and fey. He gave us a soliloquy on the French political scene and the merits and dismerits of François Hollande. In French. So fuck knows what he was actually saying.

Who knew from a boy from NW England?

I seem to remember at the first urban meet I attended handing out bombs of speed in the pool room of the peveril of the peak, at about 3 in the afternoon. Happy days.

We've all become staid in our middle age.

So the non-Mancunians Manchester meet was great. Was really nice to meet you guys. A bit of culture, tasty food, alcohol and surprisingly good weather. What else do you need? Nice one, cheers

I remember being in that pub but unsurprisingly not a lot else. I think that was the meet were I walked into the pub near the station and bees opening sentence was "go snort this" ah those were the days...

I either wasn't there, or it was the day I was hustling/fucking with the heads of all those lairy blokes on the pool table

Was that the time when we went that gay club, you and missus got bus to Preston and I ended up having to wait for the first train home?

No, it was some time before then, maybe 2003/4?

 

[timeforanother]

Sorry if we were all softies on Saturday

We probably will be next time too, if we want it to be kid friendly, now we are all a bit older (and we want the people with kids to be able to join in).

There is always the evening for raucousness.

Look on the bright side - you have a luxurious garden as a result. Good habitat for all sorts of beasties.

That might be a business opportunity for me - hire myself out to waspo-phobes to do routine stuff like grass cutting.
