Anyone on a booze cruise out of Portsmouth on the 17th going to Cherbourg?

What date steve ?

Thursday 16th or Friday 17th ??

Sounds good, can sombody give directions - nearest tube, directions from there?

Ian, nearest tube is Oxford Circus and it's only a 60 second walk from there.

The Argyll Arms

Yes the 16th is good for me.

10th in France

All adds up to ONE ALCOHOLIC

Hopefully it will just be Oxford Circus and not an Ecclestone Circus this time to contend with!!  ;)

I shall be present, although depending on work i could be on the bike !!

Again.

Steve Brown (esq)
Abs
JP Chenet
IRW
Rick Cutler
Robbo


+ Gibberish?, Zarse?, anyone heard from Mr Spider of late?

No!?!? He doesn't seem to have posted since he went to Bali diving back in October.

I'll try to give him a call!!

I'll be there if I can get away.
I quite fancy a Malibu.

Top man, they have those little paper umbrellas you like.

Oh go on then. Haven't been on a CA booze up in London for a year and have missed the last few de-briefs. And well, it is Xmas.

Time to dig out my "Bah Humbug" underwear.

Poor Simon must be quaking in his boots!!!!!!!  I think you should blame Lisa!!

Turdrama - can't make it due to works xmas do-do.

Not that I can drink substantially anyway.  :'(

Someone have a puke in my honour please.

Hey ho.  Haven't been around for a while due to new job, but you just knew I'd sniff out a thread like this.  Thursday 16th isn't very good for me, but I will try.

Anymore for anymore - falling over trousers a must!

Fat lad will be joining us...

Just to confirm what Abs said,

I will be there!!!   ;D

Be good to see you all again.

The chef shall grace us with a little presence, which means no motorbike and lots of beer !!

First CA do with no driving duties  :D

Firsta classa!  Should be a good turn out.

Just a quick 'bump' as it is now nearing the date :D

Any more for any more??

Smokie, have you booked that taxi yet??

See you all on Thursday!!

Anyone heard from Mr F Spyder recently?

Left him a voicemail recently but haven't had a reply.

Checked with H Bomb and she said he is back from hols safely but is very busy at the moment.

Still strange he hasn't been on the forum. Even stranger that he hasn't replied to my voicemail as I owe him the balance from The Classic trip!!

What time are we on pararde tomorrow?

I think from 5.30pm onwards was the idea.

I'm waiting to hear from Abs and Fat Lad what time train we are getting.

I take it you are working from home tomorrow as well ;)

I will be there at about 5pm.

So far the list is:-

Steve Brown
Rick Cutler
JPChenet
IRW
Abs
Fat Lad
Robbo
Chef
BigH
A Zarse
Smokie

Any advance!

There will be a couple more people with me, Duncan who you met at the F1 meet and someone else that he knows that goes to LM

I think there'll be at least three Zarses in attendance. Me, Stevie Zee and Chris Z too, but dont shake his hand unless you're a fan of "iced fingers".

Just heard from Gibberish, who will try to make it too.

We'll be there after 7.00.

I've just got my falling over trousers back from the dry cleaners (those stains cost me double >:( )

See you all tomorrow.

I shall be there after 1930hrs, something to do with work ?

You lot obviouslt dont do it too much, you post up far too many times a day !!

This pub, its not a fancy place is it with dress code issues ? Iam coming straight from work  ( but not in half blues )

Robbo, no, it's just a regular London pub just off Oxford Street.
I think they're a bit funny about Tutus and gingham (the London Palladium is just along the road) but anything else should be fine.

Robbo,
I've been reliably advised that there is indeed a dress code issue.
To avoid a faux pas that will embarrass you, and live to humiliate your children, and your childrens children, it seems that we must turn up in wet-suits, finished off with snorkels, crotchless panties, satin negligees and all topped with a chickens crest.
I'm squeezing into mine now, and to be honest mate, I'd allow a reasonable amount of time to complete the operation. I seem to have become stuck.
H

You couldn't resist could you  ;D

Nice i shall bring my fully lined wetsuit then. Still salty from Mondays playtime

Monday Robbo? Surely on Monday's it's the big nappy and lactating dominatix. Tuesday night is wetsuit night and wednesdays is zoo keeper and cheesegrater time. Thursdays is goats and fridays,well, it's five to five and it's Crackerjack. It is in this house anyway.

You boys crack me up!! Sooooo wish I could be there. Remember it took me three years to finally make the Poo Bar so going by that I will be @ the Argyll for Crimbo drinkies next year  ;D

Don't forget to wash your hands now.....

So as today is Thursday, who's bringin the goats tonight?? Maybe Big H can bring them along in the back of the Jag, unless Raoul is still camping out in there of course?!?!

I'm considering selling goat.  I reckon it'll go down well with the middle eastern and west indian communities at Le Mans.

Maybe I could bring along some tonight for people to try.

Here's a recipe I found -

Damn, You I was just going to turn up tonight and surprise BigH, we haven't met up since the race in June. I have now got my Visa and passport thanks to that nice Mr Prescott. I think they should name that Hillclimb after him!!

Steve, er sorry, I mean Felix...

I wouldn't recommend eating a goat (so to speak). Anything that smelly and, well, so down right energetic in the sack is gowing to be very chewy.

Incidentally, it is a common misconception that the best "angle of attack" with sheep, goats or other cloven hooved mammals is to put their rear legs down the front of your wellies. The better way apparently is to have them facing you. That way you get all the old kissing, licking and ear nibbling too. Apparently. So I'm told.

See you later gents.

 :-* :-* :-*

I wholly object to the goat references in this thread - my goat, the lovely Chevette, has been missing for a few weeks and I have a horrible feeling that you lot might know something about it!?

Anyway, sorry Me and Mr RS2 can't make it this evening, so near yet so far here in sunny Jersey.

BTW - the RS2 has gone, sold to some chap in Guernsey of all places who sold a TVR to buy it.

So, we need some new names - NICE NAMES - I might add, well a nice name for me anyway!! ;) :-*

All ideas to be posted on the forum and I will decide on the best one.

Take heed anybody who comes up with something rude and/or obnoxious, I have friends in high places (right Smokie!)

love

Mrs exRS2 Babe

Right, RS2, right. Whatever you say...  ;)

So...how does Yaris Babe sound to you?

Smokie and Mr Steve Brown (and anybody else on route) - I'm going to be droping the Panzer at around Hounslow South (on route down from Cambridge) and going in to the Argly on the Tube this evening, so if you want a lift back to your pads in jolly old Wokingham, you are welcome to hop in!

That's useful. Now I just need to get there!  :)

Unfortunately I can't make it. Family commitment...Mrs is out tonight, daughter needs collecting mid evening, and given that I've been out for the last 5 nights in a row without family, I am obliged to stay and get her...otherwise all hell will break loose.

Have a great time all, stay sober...(as if...)

"Unfortunately I can't make it. Family commitment...Mrs is out tonight, daughter needs collecting mid evening, and given that I've been out for the last 5 nights in a row without family, I am obliged to stay and get her...otherwise all hell will break loose."

Well that's a few no show excuses used in one hit and no Bean Oak brawls entertain the neighbours tonight then!
 

Sorry for the no show last night chaps, feel victim to the unpredictability of my journey between Cambridge and Wokingham. Left Cambridge at 5.45 and didn’t get to the M4 until 8.15 then the traffic was backed up on the London bound side so I probably wouldn’t have got you guys until gone 9.30 -10! Rather thin excuse I know but I left the super sized Superman suit at home so had to put up with the success that is the M25???
Trust you had a good evening and a few beers for me.

Merry Christmas and Best Wishes for the New Year to you all.

Robbo, the cheques have stopped defying gravity now so will post to you, had the cash for you last night, but best not post crinkleys (as its been a while, I did put a confirmation of the order and a note to this effect on your other posting but it got deleted by the Lord Smokie for a reason known only to himself!)

You big liar - you were home by 5 pm :D bloody part timers.

Ok he wasnt, and sorry I couldn't make it but errrrm......

errrrmmmmmmmmmmmm..........

ummmm..........

i was shot?

Merry Xmas everyone.

Ill.

Very ill.  :P

A very interesting evening was had by all. I expect. There'll be a full report later no doubt by someone better briefed than me.

Wonder what happened to JPC? We lost him somewhere in Leicester square at about 1.30. On the walk back he kept vanishing and reappearing like a ghost. He'd become a little bit giddy I think and seemed to have lost the power of speech. I know you should never leave a wounded man behind but does it count if he keeps wandering off?

Finally our thanks go to Network Rail, cheers lads for locking Victoria station and making us queue outside in the cold.

Still recovering!!!!

Slept on the floor at Elvis's work. Bought a new shirt and am still being told that I look like sh*t and smell worse than normal ;D.

Why do I do this.

Oh well only another 6 hours untill I start all over again. ;D ;D

Me and the chef got back to Portsmouth by 0145, but the 7am alarm call was hard work.

OIur thanks go to Mohammed, at Gurger King, Waterloo Station.

We ordered XL Double Whoppers, not a whopper with extra lettuce.

Lucky I wasn't depending on you a lift back then wasn't it!!


I'm the Moderator and I can do what I like  :) :)

It was deleted as it was really a one-to-one discussion (use PM!)

I feel great today 8) Those ten or so pints seem to have shifted my cold that's been hanging about all week. I do feel that I've picked up some sort of superbug from using public transport - last train home was packed, so I had to sleep standing up!.

Nice to see all you lads last night, I must apologise to Steve Brown  for spilling ale on his fine mens shoes... and to the poor young lady I mistook for a bloke... I'm sure if I think about it I could be apologising all day, so we'll leave it there. Top night. ;D

Uuurgghh,
Have been sitting on the lavatory now for coming up to four hours. I'm a little worried that I'm starting to become transparent. I must have got a 'dirty glass' towards the end...

JPC are you receiving? I began to think you'd become a Christmas ghost of Olde London Towne, the way you kept disappearing behind us, and then reappearing several minutes later in front. It wasn't a good night for a park bench.

Which brings me to the journey home (?). Managed to scrape on the last train out of Waterloo at 1:30ish, but inexplicably alighted at Clapham Junction, several stops and many miles too soon. From there I was warmly greeted by a mini cab driver who'd been loitering behind a skip. He'd obviously been trained to keep an eye out for stumbling drunks who look lost. I'm risking a re-opening of the USA/Europe build quality debate again, but I'm sure that parcel tape was never an original equipment item for Ford in Europe. It looked like that was all that was holding the car together. That, and the crinkly notes he'd asked for, up front. Still, I can't complain, he got me home, even if I had to endure 40 minutes of very loud rap music. Really, I was more in the mood for some of Rusty's easy listening.

Great to see everyone, and a top night. Unfortunately, I can't speak for my bottom...
H

Receiving?? Me?? Who?? Where?? Why??

Great night.......I think?? Although my head is telling me otherwsie. Why didn't I leave early with Abs and Fat Lad??

Not so great missing the last train so kipping in Waterloo station for a few hours. Had to "break in" by entering the International terminal and hopping over the escalator wall.

Rather scary when all the toilets are locked so the only option is to go onto a parked up train to use the facilities and then whilst you're on there the train starts up. Managed to jump off just before it pulled out otherwise I'd probably be in Portsmouth Harbour!!

Now that's funny. ;D ;D

I'vejust heard from Chris, he's still suffering from his superbug too. It's Necrolysing Faesciitus apparently.

The evening was a little spoiled by the lav on the homeward train, the parlous state of which was quite something to behold. To spend time in there required a stronger stomach than I possess. :o GGAACKKK! Just like the Exxon Valdes oilspill incident in Prince William Sound. (cue pic from Steve Brown)

I think it had something to do with the great conversation you were having with Madame Stella, even though as the night wore on the conversation became more of a one way thing  ;).

Great night, good effort by everyone, glad I bailed when I did as getting home at 8am didn't really appeal to me  :D :D

Well, my ring piece and my stomach all seem to be in the correct shape.  The London Pride obviously had less of an effect than that filthy lager stuff the rest of you were drinking.

Steve Z - I managed to clean the drink off my shoes by wiping them on that blokes / girls coat  ;)

A good night out chaps, when's the next one?
