Live Event!

oooh that sounds scrumtious.

And I shall be there... yes, Neil you will be made very welcome - as will all who attend. It's been too long!

*packs pajamas and face pack*

Er... I sense a fraud in the pack. *squirts fishies face mask in a flashy direction to see if (s)he melts*

OHH Nooo only just looked at the date in question I have just realised that I am going away that weekend and will not be able to attend. **** and bugger. someone take lots of piccies for me jude

got any ceramic straighteners rache? *waggles eyebrows*

What gave it away?

i have to travel all the way from east london....

It was the incorrect spelling of scrumptious wasn't it?

*ignores Flashalina - she can't be in the gang if she can't spell* Not straighteners but ceramic wiggly wagglers - I reckon we could use them as straighteners though. And some wigs...

I've got big tits.

If i can't come will there at least be a video?

I live frighteningly (for him) close to Martin. I always admire the Midlands contingent for coming and I only hope I would also go to the Midlands should they ever host an event. They are always really good fun. My fondest memory was a professional performance poet (can't remember her name) reading a poem called "Must you break up on your mobile phone" It was bloody hilareous... Then of course you have the opportunity to attach faces to cyber-personas I'm gutted I'm missing this one

No video. Classy photos though. This is a glamorous event...

We're sad too Jude... people should always come to an event if they can, it changes the way that you think about people on the forums...

... sometimes for the worse ... i will miss you too jude ... your t shirts alone are usually worth the train fare ...

I will come, if the trains aren't too disasterous by then. (spent the trip from Clapham Junction to Warterloo on Saturday stuffed like a japanese commuter into a carriage already full of a stag party)

What is the collective noun for writers? You have a gaggle of geese, a chatter of Budgerigars a drove of cattle, a convocation of eagles, an army of frogs, A posse of poetr a ring or writers a toggle of talers?

flash is the mike read of abctales ... big tits but has google in place of brain

sorry Fish but I won't be there again. Maybe one year eh? Still you can see my mug on the browser bit of here so at least you won['t have to imagine me as anything. Have a great time

That really is the lowest of insults.......Mike Read really. I haven't used google in ages...hey you're not too shy at using the Internets resources if i remember rightly Mr Anagram king.

hah! that was last resort. I did them by hand if you read the thread correctly. *gives flash an 'in' by way of 'by hand' comment* *exits ... one handedly*

Spack and I have just bought returns - leaving Norwich on Friday, coming back on the Saturday. Don't know where we're staying, but it's going to be one biiig party. Hope some other abctalers are up for painting the city red!

A waggle of writii

so where's the girls staying?? Would love to come......been a long time since.............enuff said already. ;0

I guess I'll show up!

I'm coming from Manc land on the train - any put-up places for guys?

12 (ish) so far then. You should hold one near me, its so central and easy to get to you'd probably treble the number of guests. Even Ely would be hard pressed to find an excuse not to come. (He's not that far from me anyway. We could send a kidnap team) Would love to come but can't make Fridays (no crusoe jokes please) until after May.

yer.. i know where he lives. *ferrets out balaclava*

careful, ferrets and balaclavas bring out the worst in people like Ely and his cousins

Ferret's no good in a balaclava! All the juices runs out through them 'oles! you wanna wrap 'im in Fenland peat and cook for one hour over a fire. If Peat's not in then just ask 'is mom for a pan!

We shall ensure the ferrets escape thru' the 'oles before peat wakes up.

A chapter of writers. [%sig%]

just hpe the do is more lively than the forum today? Where is everyone? i need you..I don't have friends in real life. j

*gets crocodile-skin "party slippers" and matching jockey shorts down from loft and starts polishing* [%sig%]

Me too. Start a lively thread Jude, I can't think of one and Missi tried but his link didn't work.

*gets blindfold down from loft*

yeah got a ticket cant wait to meet a few of you guys...

sadly I am on retreat this weekend...but I will be leaving something behind the bar for a certain abctaler...

Nothing I've got works Rachel.

Hahahaaha aww!

If anyone can secure a return ticket from Korea for me I'm well up for it. I finish work at 9pm on the Friday btw. The time difference should soak up the travel time tho. Cheers Andrew. P.S- With you in spirits, anyhow. [%sig%]

I will make sure the Norwich lot come... as long as we're welcome! It's been way too long. I will drag myself there even if I have to make my way back on foot. *claps hands in a frenzy* Yay!

Of course you are welcome - very very welcome indeed!

Can't make this one ... but I want to book my seat now for the next one. Expecially if it's at the weekend. I couldn't believe how early we got kicked out last time. The party was just warming up when everyone went home to bed.

I think I've started a fairly lively thread over on Jude's Shrove Tuesday thread - but you can all be the judge of that......

What kind of 'gender demographics' are there going to be at the event, i mean, i mean just trying to visualise the event.

do you mean "hoping to pull"?

Not in the short time i willl be there nah, probably not although hey what sounds better than meeting and shacking up with another writer ? (maybe not eh)

*raises eyebrow*
