Next EDF Drinks - this Friday 4th April - CPT

[jubamyung]

Hey kids - just wanted to say nice to discover that you are all really real on Friday night. didn't get a chance to speak to that many of you as I'm rubbish at mingling but BIG big up to the ED massive, I went home with a nice warm fuzzy feeling that the world is actually quite a nice place. stay gold :))

[TillieTrotter]

It is a good buzzy feeling isnt it Jubamyung. I'm abit like that amongst big crowds hence not getting to meet you but eventually you do get around to chatting to more people the more you make the effort to go. I love it and as usual Georgia and Mike did a great job on the organising front and the usual BIG UP to Mark the man that made it all happen.

[georgia]

Great night, now just need to think about the next one! Any ideas?

My suggestion would be The Magdala as that was our first venue over a year ago and it has plenty of space.

As for the date, would suggest 9th or 16th May.

Any comments / ideas?

[SeanMacGabhann]

ooh the commitee are keen this time aren't they!? ;-)

After the broo ha ha over where to choose last time I'm reluctant to wade in. I will say that if it was in the CPT again I would be very happy.

[Keef]

As a regular of the CPT, it was a bit strange having the forum drinks there, I had some mates in the other side who were a bit shy to come and mingle, so I was trying to run in and out.

Mag works for me, as does the EDT, which seems to be the general back up place...

Or we could ask the Black Cherry to open exclusively for us!!!

[Ladygooner]

I can make either date but 16th for preference

[KalamityKel]

Hmmmm dates... both are okies with me altho the 9th would mean an early departure for me :( ... got a very early start the following day (darn being a musician!) and the 16th I'm working til 8 but always happy to pop in on me way home :p

[david_carnell]

I'm up for another one. The 16th is my birthday so that's either a very good or very bad reason for me to go out drinking with you lot....I'm not sure!

Not fussed for venue. Real ale in the Mag is a bit dodgy so I'd go for the EDT if those are the two choices. Have we done the Gowlett? They'll reserve us an area, the beer is great and it's my local. ;-)

[citizenED]

Can I put in a shout for the 9th.

As for a venue - how about the Herne. Just missed out last time.

[Michael Palaeologus]

9th is good for me - would have some chums with me as well.

The Herne would be good, not been there yet and it isnt too far away, although not on Lordship Lane - does people good to explore a little. Having said that, how big is it? The CPT started to feel a bit cramped as we had about 35 people in the back room. We need a bigger pub if numbers keep expanding. Summer drinks will be easier as we can expand into beer gardens.

or

The Mags - not been there for a while and it is the right size.

[Jah Lush]

Great night once again. Always good to see everyone and I love the CPT. Got home around 9am and finally got into bed and probably spent most of the weekend there recovering but it was well worth it. 16th would be better for me as it is the day after payday. Mag or EDT would be more preferable but I don't mind the Herne either.

[jubamyung]

ha, you really are all very keen.

but tis for a good cause so more bigging up of you is now required!>:D<

[Annasfield]

9th is good for me and the Magdala sounds like a great idea. :)-D

[AllyCat]

9th May is good for me too!

[ChavWivaLawDegree]

I'l be in Jamaica so will miss the next one. I'll raise a glass or two by the beach!!

[SteveT]

9th good for me to,

we are talking numbers of lovers and their orgasms......welllll I can still dream, and lie, even if most other functions are in a state of decline.;-)

Magdala is my vote.

Edt second choice.

[KalamityKel]

Really Steve :-|

[jumpinjackflash]

I'm coming - finally be able to see what y'all look like!

Agree, I don't like crowded places at all, which is why I could only stay in there for 5 minutes at a time before running outside for air and a fag!

[Annasfield]

Yeah but, I'm away on the 16th :'(

[Michael Palaeologus]

The 9th it is then :))

Azul - you are away more than me!

[Keef]

9th better for me, as I will likely being playing a big charity gig on the 17th (there will be a thread about it if it's confirmed), and will want to feel human for it.
