smiley - erm Sorry for butting in but isn't May 11th the anniversary of DNA's death? When I saw that date in your name I thought you were announcing a plan to mark the occasion.

Yes, May 11th is the anniversary of DNA's passing away, and I'm sure we'll have something to comemmorate the occasion. We'll just incorporate it into the Meet-up plans.smiley - smiley

Spooky - we just went for that date because it was convenient for most people. I'd completely forgotten about that smiley - erm

I'm pretty sure that someone mentioned it when we had set our minds on the 11th of May. Just can't remember just who it was.

I'm afraid I can't be there on the 11th. But perhaps there might be a few volunteers to drink smiley - stout on my behalf?

We've done it before, we can do it again.smiley - smiley Depending on what your preferred drink is, Amy, we'll find someone to drink it for you. I'll volunteer for the V&RB smiley - stiffdrink, but I tend to stay away from smiley - ale and smiley - stout...

*raises hand* It was probably me who mentioned it, in a "DNA died on my birthday, that makes me very special" kind of way.

I guess you could be correct, EV. I believe that it might have been you who mentioned that the meet was on both your birthday and the day of the honourable DNA's untimely death.
