Towel Day

Mister Matty

It *does* seem a little "close" to the last meet smiley - erm (although we could make it a mini-meet) but that ain't never stopped us before smiley - biggrin, I suppose.

Dr EV alluded to this on the 5th. Although it should strictly be the Sunday, I suppose we could do something Saturday and wait until after midnight.

I suppose if we'd really put some thought into it, we should have postponed the last meet until May 10th. smiley - doh However, too late now. smiley - cheers

That's kind of what I thought smiley - biggrin

Mind you, we *did* leave a huge gap between the last two meets October 'til April smiley - erm. So it could be argued we're making up for it.

fords - number 1 all over heaven

I think a Towel Day meet is a splendid idea! We could always stay "relatively" sober until, say, about 10 pm on the Saturday, then have a right old p**s up at the bells.....

But I do still have a mysterious mousemat-shaped package with "FAO Sir Mort" written on it. Dunno what's inside it though. smiley - winkeye

Place your bets now!

Is it A) a mousemat in prestine condition.

Or B) a beer soaked beermat that EV exchanged for said item

Or how about C) a map of Edinburgh which mysteriously transforms into a mousemat if only you can read the details instruction in Sanskrit.

I think a Towel Day meet in Edinburgh would be good.smiley - smiley And that has nothing to do with my having a game in Edinburgh the following day or anything, it's just a good idea.smiley - winkeye

Then again, as long as I can catch the last train to Largs from Glasgow (and we all know how good I am at that) Glasgow would be a good venue as well.

I vote for Whitburn as It means I can drink but means all you will have to study the First bus timetable to find out when you need to leave. smiley - winkeye

Edinburgh sounds good, as I said. That also means that I'll need a place to crashm, and that people can carry my football kit around for me.smiley - smiley

Midway between Edi and Glasgow and only just off the M8. Just no rail station now thanks to Mr Beeching.
