Lets sort a date out for a 5pm/5:30 ish meet up at the Old C's. A Saturday in October. To give folks enough time to sort their diaries.

Terry

Terry

The 3rd and 17th are best for me. Only date I cannot make is the 31st. Looking forward to it already!

Roger

As long as half term is avoided I am up for it...17th seems perfect?

TT

Any date in October will be fine for us, the 17th is as good any so if thats what it turns out to be we will be there.

Stephen

I'm on a jolly on the 24th. so any other Saturday would be nice.

Owen Hales

Saturday 17th October seems the favourite so far, and its Ok with me aswell.

Terry

Lets go for 17th then....In my diary!

Regards

TT

Sorted and pretty quickly as well, I shall see you all, along with my wife on the 17th then.

Stephen

Now in my diary.

Terry - have just been speaking to your mate Ian Ward at Moseley rugby club.

Roger

17th fine - look forward to it.

Hi Terry

Any Saturday is fine by me.

Tony

Tony

Saturday 17 October. 5:30 pm ish

See you all there.

Tony

I don't believe it, this will be third one I have missed, have got a wedding that weekend!

Any chance of a December meet perhaps with a quick half at the German market?

Matt

I'm up for a December meet but not sure about the "quick half". Make it several pints and I shall be there!

Roger

I should be ok for the 17th hopefully see you then...and indeed any festive celebrations in December

Oh all right then, if you insist.

Sounds a good idea for December. Trip round the German Market, re-enact the Xmas Truce, play a game of football in No Man's Land (Villa Park) and back to the OC's.

Terry

So is October cancelled then....dear oh dear another event I have killed off at the mere hint of my attending....

How many PALS groups would like to pay me NOT to say I will come so their next meeting to guarantee that the meeting will go ahead!

Come on Roy and the South Staffs Pals you meet regularly should be worth a few quid to pay me NOT to say I will come

HI Gunboat.... Not Cancelled... The October meeting is still on. Saturday 17 October, 5:30 ish at the Old Contemptibles, Livery Street.


Hope to see you

Terry

If there is a joke in here somewhere I am struggling to find it!

Alan

I think Terry may well be a Blue Nose and may not be to keen on the Villa!

Stephen

Believe it or not, even though I am slightly biased to the Blues, I do have an affinity with the Villa, due to the fact Aston Barracks, the home of the 8th Royal Warwicks, was directly behind the Witton End. Also I like to find out about former players of both clubs who served in WW1.

See you all soon

Terry

Half a Bluenose is just as bad as whole one!

We going to be huddling together for warmth ?

O.H.

Thou art Villan?

I suspect Alan may well be

Stephen

Another interesting and educational few hours, Ta v much all. And I didn't detect any accents at all !

Owen Hales

yep - I enjoyed it as well. Here's to the Christmas meet! Accents, what accents?!

Roger

Another enjoyable evening unfortunately as I was thinking to myself that I must introduce myself to the new guy Matt Dixon, then he had to leave early, so I'll catch up with him next time.

Stephen

Sorry about that, we'll have to talk next time.

Always good to see everybody

Hi di hi

Another enjoyable couple of hours. A good turn out aswell, 11 in total. (that was the attendance, not how many pints we each drunk!)


Terry

Now that would be interesting, if we all had to drink the same number of pints as there was attendee's before we were dismissed and allowed to go home!

Stephen

owen, how did you get past the border guards at bearwood?

enoch

Under the wire !
werwuzu ?

O.H.

hi owen,

i'm still in trouble with the mrs after the stag night i went on a few months back

should never upset my mrs, she from old hill female chainmaking stock

enoch

If it was at the Magic Club up the steep drive on The Hayes I'm not surprised !

Next time then Enoch.

O.H.

Whats the Magic Club and what happens there that can get you into trouble with the Mrs?

Stephen

nothing so exciting as the magic club! just a pub crawl up waterfall lane to blackheath and then a indian with a few more drink on top!

I don't have first hand experience of it you understand, I was only told about it by another.
I can repeat it only if you know the password !

O.H.

Understood Owen, I'll say no more

Stephen
