Oh, forgot to mentions BB's guest.

A (non-ED) friend who attends forum drinks (with smiles and good humour and does a really good job of pretending not to be scared / bored by the whole thing) is a friend indeed!


And Sean, I'm sure she's humouring me, but thanks anyway!

Lovely to finally put some faces to names. Great to meet so many of you with shout-outs to Sean, MP, CitizenEd, AnnaJ, Mark (who I owe a drink next time), Moos (ditto), BellendenBelle, Kel and Bignumber5. Apologies to anyone I missed. Guiness fog is to blame.


Had a great time. Castle was much nicer than I thought and it was the busiest I've ever seen the CPT.


A great night. Thank you.

With my teeny hangover lifted, I would just like to say what a lovely night I had once again.


It was particularly lovely meeting for the first time Buggie (I shall remember your techniques when I next encounter a pert rugby player's bottom); Moos (loved the frankness re motherhood and am terribly envious of your flat stomach); and David Carnell (ahhh, if only all men were lucky enough to come out of their mother's womb in a pair a slippers and requesting a glass of sherry)!


Also had great fun with all the regulars - Mockney, Lozzyloz, SteveT, Annaj,AnotherPaul, Sean Mcgabbhan, Bignumber5,CWALD, Georgia, AndrewCBlack, Alleycat - and everyone else!


My guest and partner in crime for the evening Andrew also had a fab time - sooooo much so, he may be attending another...


Ahhhhh, I love the EDF!

Seanmac had a new 'barnet' looked younger, mmmmm has he pulled lady mac recently, if so she's having a positive influence on our Sean.

Tillie Trotter and Lozzy Loz I spoke to for the first time they thought my non PC posts talking of shagging etc were a good thing, so that fans the flames for future postings.

Considering changing my posting name to Big Boy;-)

    • Interesting, because I am finding it next to impossible to get an appointment at Tessa Jowell.  
    • Yes, I live Colyton/Dovedale area and lots of swifts usually.  I'd love a swift nesting box too.
    • There's always a large flock(?) over the area of back gardens surrounded by Colyton / Dovedale / Marmora / Scutari, but no idea if / where there are any nesting boxes. We'd love to have one, and often have swifts zooming close by, checking out possible sites.
    • I would have thought the cost of erecting X meters of metal barriers would be the same irrespective of location, plus given the issues with access now due to the "bunds", it would also be easier given the ample direct access the common provides? The reason I've heard from the organisers is that their footprint has been tailor made for that part of the park, so it's not possible to fit it anywhere else. Which is a ridiculous argument given that  they've already altered / extended it due to the space they've 'lost' from the "bunds". The reason I've heard from FOPR and others is that as the common is public land (or similar) it requires permission from the Home Secretary (or similar) due to ancient grazing rights or something. Oddly it doesn't seem to have affected the circus, the steam fair, the dog show etc etc etc Yes, the wide path where Parkrun starts & finishes will become a controlled crossing during the build, and completely closed off during the festival. Also, when I asked about the reason for the extended footprint onto the sports pitch, they said it was to replace lost space where the bunds are, which they used to store equipment. However, they were unable to explain where this storage area now was on the new plan... And when asked about the loss of the sports pitch due to the extension & access road, they said the council had assured them there were no matches booked for that period. But what about the kids, families, who play on them? No answer...
