I'd also like a reduction in entrance price of 20% and to leave with more refreshments than I bring because the unicorns said this is fair and just in my position.
Thanks
Hadn't ever occured to me that was where your name game from. Where's Sprocket?Officially in a clique of idiots1 -
Ditzy_Mitzy said:Can I come? I shall bring as much to drink as can be reasonably fitted in a Happy Shopper carrier bag, probably a bottle of Smirnoff, another of Malibu and a litre and a half of someone's own-brand cola; and shall then spend most of the evening hanging about on your patio and smoking, having already demanded an ashtray/old baked bean tin with some water in (depending on what's available).
Oh, and what records, tapes or CDs should the partygoers bring? We'll need a decent selection.Ghost Town (on endless repeat).Venice in Peril by Rondo VenezianoAnything by Spinal Tap, but only if played at 11.Any language construct that forces such insanity in this case should be abandoned without regrets. –

Treasure the moments that you have. Savour them for as long as you can for they will never come back again.1 -

Looking forward to tonight. It should be quite a bash.
Is the rule to be maintained that there is to be no discussion of the housing market or the economy? Might limit the number of fights.3
