You calling me cheap?

wouldn't be the first time would it nor would it be unfounded and remember we go back a long way

no, that came later (fnarr)

 

[farmerbarleymow]

That's not true though - although an unnamed poster pressed what I presume to have been his keys against my arse in Sackville Park, all the while whispering filth to me...

man that was a cracking day out though I'm alarmed by how thin we all are and how long ago it was.

Sorry, will stop derailing now

It was an ace day - we were all twatted, and I remember lying on the platform at Piccadilly because it felt cool, and doing starfish movements. Much to the bemusement of train passengers.

I remember taking you all up the office* later that night to look over the spangly Manchester skyline.

* not a euphemism

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Whatever happened to the lad from Congleton who is in the photo? Can't remember his username.

chio - no idea what happened to him, others might though

 

[Steel Icarus]

I'd like to come. Would prefer either Saturday in Whit half term - May 26 or June 2 - but Saturdays are generally OK.

 

[farmerbarleymow]

did you?

Yeah, we went to the office in the quays before going to my flat up the road. I got you in with my security pass and we looked over the city centre from the top floor. Think of the big curved window.

Definitely come if you can.

 

[Steel Icarus]

Yeah, it's a resolution this year to go see both people I haven't for ages and people I never have but should.

I’ve started the fb group I meant to start last time we fucked this up - The Fishing Union of Calderdale & Kirklees. And I’ve added Shirl, which has probably deeply confused her Fez909, mango5 & neonwilderness will be added in a sec

I'm having second thoughts about this meet now. I had no idea what a wild beast farmerbarleymow appears to be and I'm not sure that Hebden is ready for him and his 'taking up the office' ways

Your standing in Hebden could hardly be lower, so I couldn't have that much of an impact.

I have absolutely no recollection of that at all

I get the Hull train from Huddersfield to Dewsbury, and a train goes to Hebden from Dewsbury so it’s totally doable but idk if that’s the best way That’s how I’ll get there anyway. Usually get a bus to ‘Fax then a train but that takes forever.

 

[Rebelda]

I will come to this if my shifts allow. Won't know until closer to the summer though, so I won't vote just cross my fingers

 

[Steel Icarus]

Going to take three hours and as many trains to get to Hebden whether I go via Sheff or Leeds

Sheffield is way out of the way. Leeds would be shorter.

 

[Steel Icarus]

It isn't...I can get direct to Sheff from here. Both journeys two changes and 3 hrs

 

[neonwilderness]

It's almost as bad for me, one change and two and half hours. I could (almost) get to that London quicker

I can't do May 19th or June 16th, other dates are ok I think

 

[Dovydaitis]

depending on dates I may be able to crash at my mates house in Halifax.....

Really do want to do this one

train is looking like 4 1/2 hours and 4 changes!

 

[sojourner]

Yep yep - deffo DEFFO wanna come to this!!!

Gigs pop up at last minute quite often, but so far 19th May, 2nd June and 23rd June are all free. Gigging on the others.

 

[friendofdorothy]

I'm not sure if we are going to make this - according to booking.com its cheaper to stay in a hotel Rome than a room in Hebden Bridge, and a train return ticket from London will be £111.80 each. Yikes.

We'd like to come if we can afford it.
