seashell Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 We haven't heard from Brummie, BigJim or thunderbird13 for a while. Hope they are still in or it might just end up with 4 or 5 of us. (4 or 5 quality people I hasten to add!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stingray5 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Good point, Dave. I just realized they have a 'James Bond' theme for my gig so I may well be sweating buckets in a tux. What's the betting they don't throw in free Martini's though!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thought of wearing a loose suit in this weather is enough to make me sweat, let alone a tight collar. I doubt there will be any Martini's for you but at least the bear is cheap eh? EDIT:Just realised you meant this weeks gig. Good luck with that. Hopefully its not in a Marquee. Edited May 24, 2012 by dave_bass5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave_bass5 Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 I wonder if she is still there lol. Last year there was a couple of rather drunk city types having, what can only be described as bad sex on that sofa. At least, they were trying their best to. Right i have some bad, and rather embarrassing news. Ive been "asked" to work tomorrow morning in a rather forceful way, so it looks like i too will have to pull out as by the time im finished i doubt i'll much time to eat, wash and get reddy before leaving for the gig. If i can pop over i will but it will depend on what time i finish here. I feel really bad about doing this so close but there isnt a lot i can do to get out of it. If anything changes i will of course be there but if i dont see you all tomorrow have a good one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvia Bluejay Posted May 25, 2012 Author Share Posted May 25, 2012 What a pity, Dave... but I know what it's like to be asked to work with practically no notice at all, and not have the choice to say no. Hopefully you'll be able to make an appearance, if not, next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave_bass5 Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Thanks BJ. I feel a bit like im letting the side down, especially after all your hard work, but yes, when work calls you have to go running (or limping in Fran's case;-) I was supposed to be in on Sunday but the guy doing Sat has suddenly become "ill" over the last two days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobbayne Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 (edited) Looks like its gonna be a scorcher tomorrow! Make sure theres lots of piccies posted on here, and keep out the pub! Love to be there, but got a 50 mile drive down to Alton Hants, to play Elvis and Achy Breaky Heart, etc, for the old folks.

Silvia Bluejay Posted May 25, 2012 Author Share Posted May 25, 2012 Don't worry, guys, it's a pity you can't make it, but it's just the way it is. I hope to organise another drink reasonably soon, if this goes OK, so we'll have another opportunity to meet up. As we were saying on FB, those of us who will attend will have to [b]slap [/b]on some serious SPF and carry bottles of water Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seashell Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Well it seriously looks like it might just be me and Sylvia the rate this is going. I'm still up for it as I'm down south now anyway and a day out in london would be nice. And all the better if I can meet one or two nice people for lunch. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvia Bluejay Posted May 25, 2012 Author Share Posted May 25, 2012 I assume that a few lurkers might turn up too. I'm going to be there, as planned. All welcome, and if it's just Shell and I in the end, we'll have a girly afternoon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seashell Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Good, glad we're still on. Hope Sean's still in as well. Can't believe no-one's taken him up on the jah wobble ticket yet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if all are aware of the obligatory 'Vicars & Hookers' costumes. Did you make it sufficiently clear..?
