Just ask for a dirty glass. It'll make you look tough. 
Quote: AndreaLynne @ August 4 2009, 2:26 PM BSTThat's my real reason for making the trip: to bask in the greatness of Tim.
I'm glad someone at least has the guts to admit it.
Quote: Leevil @ August 4 2009, 2:23 PM BSTIt was just a thought. I'd be able to afford the trip down there, but I'd have bugger all money for drinks and food if I got hungry.
Take your own sandwiches. Didn't you say you don't drink much alcohol? Soda water and lime's pretty cheap. Or tap water.

Tap water should be free in a good pub.
Now that's an idea.

I think someone's beaten you to it on the whole tap water invention, Dave. And for that reason... I'm out.
I think this one will be the only one this year guys. It's been a long time since the last one. Next one will be next year most probably (unless Mark or Aaron suggest otherwise).
Quote: Godot Taxis @ August 4 2009, 2:12 AM BSTI discussed this with Badge, sooty, a while back - a sort of get together of the senior, intellectual heads-of-state of the BSG... and Chapman.
Quote: Chappers @ August 4 2009, 2:01 PM BSTI think it was a figment of his imagination.
You'll be there Chapman. When they turn the central heating off in the library, you'll be there...

Yes, there may be a chance for a small event at Christmas, but we probably won't do a 'proper' one again this year.
Hmmmm
I don't know what your objection is, Nil. Would it bother, how many times a year do you need to see the people of this forum, isn't talking to us enough everyday?
I don't think it matters how many meetups there are. As long as there's a main one where everyone has a chance to meet each other. I'm all for little versions popping up now and again.
But then again, that's maybe cos I want more chances to meet other writers?
