GABIT attendees thread

[Kliggins]

LOL ! Me too...as there are currently 13 of us on the Get-together list,it'd take all Sat night and most of Sunday just to get through those 13 rounds.
Not to mention the need to queue constantly for the toilets....

Trust you to be practical!

[Kliggins]

For ever!!!!

Forever????

Or until the closing date ! (Oct 6,I think ?)

Phew! Thank you!

Shhhh! Don't tell Kligs.

It is not not nice to play with my feeble mind.

[Kliggins]

you can put me down for an orange juice for the drinks list. However, I have to ask. This isn't a round is it? If so can I opt out? It is just that I don't drink, and there's only so many soft drinks you can have, and it is a rather long list. Not sure I can drink that many OJ's!

LOL! I can't drink that much either. I am just so happy to have the opportunity to meet everybody, see Amanda and visit London (one of of my favorite cities), I just wanted to buy a round for everybody. After that, you are on your own.

You are just so considerate

49 DAYS TO GO!!!!!

I've just bought a ticket for the cocktail party. anyone else going? Can we set up a list for that??

[Kliggins]

I know.

Congrats.
ChopinGal is a definite,Gipsy and you..I think MajorSamFan may be going to the Cocktail Party as well.I'm going to re-read this thread to see if I've missed anyone.

I have no idea about Polosmoothie or Sue_the_Lurker,as they were added by you,Mal.I don't think they post much on New GW,or I'd suggest you PM them if they're on the Forum Leaders list.

How about asking on the Yahoo Gabit Events List or e-mailing them to see what's up for the Cocktail Party ?

Reminder to all to post requests for the Con Disco here :

[Bagpuss]

Forgive this double post,please,everyone.Yahoo/GW glitches mean I can't edit my above post (again !).

MAL : I've reread the whole thread and it seems that the Cocktail Party Roll is as follows:

ChopinGal
Rowan
MAL
Gipsy (?)

No idea about MajorSamFan.Her posts on this thread didn't mention the Cocktail Party at all .

Hope this little list helps you out a bit.

You just wanted to keep ahead of me on the most posts for the thread

ChopinGal
Rowan
MAL
Gipsy

Gipsy has already arranged to be on a table. Have you arranged a table baggie?? Could you get me included on it please? I'll be busy this week.

As for Sue, Poolismith etc I think they might have made arrangments. I'll have a word with Gipsy on the best way of getting in touch with them. I have been emailing Sue. But she's very busy!

[SEREN LWCH (MAL)]

MAL :
Re : the Cocktail Party: Rowan will be on ChopinGal's table.No idea if that table's full,but I suspect it may be.I'll try to PM CG .

I assume you may have meant "have I booked a table for the Saturday night dinner ?"

To all :I plan to ring the hotel tomorrow am and see if I can provisionally book a table for 12 plus possible extras.Time 6.30 pm -?

That theoretically gives time for us all to go and freshen up/get changed after the auction,and hopefully won't cut too far into the Disco time for those of us who really just want to Boogie down.

If anyone wants a different time booked then get on this thread today or tomorrow morning and tell me !
Or e-mail me direct on : < snipped obsolete e-address >

MAL: No probs on continuing the countdowns.Go enjoy yourself.Llyndan awaits thee !

(There seem to be probs with editing posts,quoting others,and comp freezes all over the forum...at least it's not just us .Small comfort ,but there it is.)
