H-h-hang on, is this where we had the worst Barbemeet ever?

I guess it's a bit late to worry about that now. Blue Posts it is. Thanks Seth for nominating the place. The lesson has been learned.

See you all tomorrow.

As memory serves (if this is the 'worst barbemeet' you're referring to, our kid of the flowers - kooky baby's birthday bash on Saturday 22nd December 2001), it wasn't the place, nor the occasion, but an unfortunate clash o' the personality titans, whereby two of us folks became rather endrunkened and tried to batter each other like Mars Bars in an Edinburgh chippy.

As I don't believe in bad vibes or karma (although I'm sure that's going to bite me in the ass one of these days), I'll see you there, yes?

If it helps, we have had plenty of meets at the Blue Posts since, with nothing more terrible happening than the taste of filthbeer at the back of the throat...

Sorry I didn't make it...

Probably for the best. Jesus... I've never seen somebody hit someone else with an Ayingerbrau pump before. That's gonna leave a mark...

She was asking for it.

Alex's Grandma

Well she was... But still, the expression on the barman's face, like Satan eating a chicken korma in a Turkish bath... I don't think I'll ever forget that terrible sight.

And the thing is, none of this would have happened if Fish was still in the band, y'know ?

pointless and uncalled for

Wonder if the A&E have seen a man in a blue box shaped dent in someone's back before.

Q. Does the phrase "c'mon you slag, hit me with that pump and I'll fuck you up proper style" actually constitute "asking for it"?

Did this actually happen or are you trying to make it sound interesting for the benefit of those of use who were otherwise engaged? Please enlighten me & provide fuller details...

K-CC: Everything always happens. All the time.

Let's not forget 7 Beats To The Bar threatening to "nut the palsied fuck who just smacked me upside the head", in his colourful vernacular. The ensuing interrogation was intriguing - was the blow to the side of Beats' bonce caused by the hefty fellow five feet or so away, using his Mr Tickle arms to inflict maximum havoc without detection? Or was it the innocent-looking young lady with the mohawk sitting between them, who was the only one actually within range?

Kit-Cat: You want to rub my stitches and tell me I'm making this up?

That so called innocent-looking young lady was causing havoc all night. By my count she was responsible for at least four seperate incidents.

A review of footage seems to indicates that she incited the aforementioned Mr. Tickle but at the same time took the opportunity to engage Haus in a practical debate regarding the viscosity of silicon vessels.

She did have a point though.

She was also spotted on the grassy knoll, and is believed to know the whereabouts of Lord Lucan, Jimmy Hoffa and Julie Burchill's journalistic integrity.

Obviously one of those is a complete fucking lie.

I'm really sorry to have missed this mini-meet (aka Marillion Pride 2004) - it would have been lovely, to be surrounded by fellow Marillion-fans in safe space for once, but the gods had other plans for me that day.

I never did find out who it was.

Apparently, a question being bleeding obvious is sufficient reason to deny a guy the answer.

What sad times are these...

Well while you were left in the dark as to who was the mysterious ear-smacker, I had no idea who 7 beats was until 2 minute ago, having missed the bracked (40%) phase. Much confusion.

And she was innocent-looking for a reason. Did you not see the incredibly large scary man, with 6 foot long arms, sitting just five feet away?

Partner.

In.

Crime.
