12 pints = six? What sort of maths is that?

 

DWB :)

Sounds like a good idea. I'd be up for something in the London area.

Maryport would have the advantage of putting off the faint-hearted and the drive by traffic.....

 

Erm....right, London then.

But what if we meet up and discover we all hate each other? It's one thing to co-exist amicably in text, but in real life? The DL might fall into a state petty squabblings or worse - vicious member vs. member attacks. Would we ever recover?

 

:D

Member vs member attacks, whatever gave you that idea?

 

My main expectation of a revelation and surprise would be that we'd discover how F*****g ordinary we all are.

 

I'm the one with the stiff right arm and the Carlisle United scarf when we all get together. You're the twenty nine stone darts player, right?

Alternatively we could choose a hotel with free wireless. Sit in our rooms and talk remotely.

 

Sh*t just realised, that's what we do now!!!

 

I am sure we are mature and gentlemanly/womanly enough to leave hatchets at the door.

 

And if not :D

We'll I'd be up for it and will be in London for 2 weeks over Christmas. Have no idea about good venues etc as I haven't been there for so long.

And as we sit there, Richard O'Sullivan walks past, looks and sees us all and soils himself, right?

 

I think an invite has to go out to somebody on the list, if only for them to officially decline...

In view of his forum being kept alive almost entirely by DL members, may I suggest Mr George Melly.

Does Brinsworth House have "function rooms". It would be the perfect venue.

 

BTW there's a video on their website now. No sign of Dickie O, but Norman Wisdom makes a brief appearance (looking very healthy)

A pub near there could be fun. Especially when we get mashed and march on BH...

That reminds me, Windsor still owes me a pint.

 

How about "Ma" Cameron's in Little Belmont Street?

 

Somebody that knows a place North of the Tay and Dee river.

Maybe, but the "Prince of Wales" has a better pint. Then again for a punch up we could go to "Peep Peeps".

:D

Not as well as I know this place.

 

How about the Double Two down on Balnagask Road?

 

If it´s still there.

How about Walthamstow dog track? It has function rooms and a bar and if we all hate each other or haven't got anything in common, we can concentrate on the races instead.

I hereby recommend Julius's of course that would exclude our non-merry crowd. I would reccommned The No Name but they went under.

 

The Whitehorse still has the blood from Dylan Thomas soaked into the table but its become horribly snooty. Just the other day I was asked to leave.

LOL - and the title of the Con' would have to be called "Are they going to the dogs?"

I am sure that we all know how to behave cordially to those whom we despise. I'm all for meeting though I suggest that the pub should have a garden in which I can observe the comings and goings.

RRTFLMHO...

 

I would think that we should invite just about the full number who are still alive (wondering if they would let Ronnie Biggs out for a few hours) though all those we can hope might turn up, and are not "in official decline"

I think it should be somewhere that the attendees can set up a webcam and those of us who can't attend in person can attend virtually. :)

I won't be going because I like my face in the form it is now. I'm also perfectly happy with the number of teeth I currently have.

Is it really a good idea to have much of the deathlist elite at the same room at the same time? There could be some radical attempt to wipe you all out...

This place Would seem appropriate (read the accompanying caption - there's quite a few such places in the Emerald Isle).

All the more reason for going to a classy venue, I'm sure the Connaught's Regency Carlos Room wouldn't be conducive to any unpleasantness.

Yes I used to drink in a bar that was also the local undertakers.

 

The bar is closed now :huh: , but they still do funerals.

OSP, are you having anything approaching an out-of-province experience at the thought of Ian Paisley possibly discussing day to day business with Martin - he has the power of life and death - McGuinness?

 

Just askin' like.
