I'll probably aim for five-ish, so I can swing via Goshy first.

Don't worry. Somehow you just... know. At my first London barbemeet, I was the first to arrive, and there was a fancy dress thing going on in the upstairs room of the Jorene Celeste, which I was terrified was the Barbeloids.

But when the Barbeloids started to arrive, my Barbie-Dar started working and it all worked out. Don't worry, Barbeloids can spot other Barbeloids. (But of course the rest of the sheeple can't!)

Anyhoo am hoping to make this at some point but am seriously double booked all weekend so not totally sure..which is a shame because I definitely want a £5 grab bag present. And to see all of you guys too of course!

See I wish I could come to this... maybe somebody could make a little face on a table out of condensation rings and talk to it like it's me? I'll try to make it talk back.

Given the propensity my minions seem to have developed this week for phoning in sick with the "festive flu", it seems very unlikely I'm gonna make it now... all depends how many hours I have to work on Saturday night/Sunday morning whether I'll actually be awake later on the Sunday...
I'll still try though.

Plough. Museum Street. Nearest tubes Holborn and Tottenham Court Road. Notional kickoff at 5-6pm, but arrivals at various times. Bring a book. All well?

Bah Humbug.

Or rather, fluey and knackered, so won't make it. Have a great time, all.

I shall make a sign saying BARBELITH, VERY BAD PEOPLE, and will put it on a table full of Barbelithers, so ze can us easily.

I say this now but am very drnk and Cherry Bomb and lovely sleazanation are distracting me with their fabulousness as
they settle onto our couch in a haze of alcohol, Olivier-prize-winning cabaret and big doobies. Life is seldom fi ner

A-ha! That was Xoc and not Ganesh. Regular viewers would note the difference. He's taller, thinner, sexier, more intellectual. I'm older, fatter, give-you-a-fiver-for-a-blow-job - you know the type. And I wash the dishes.

Not going to make it today after all.

Hope everyone has a good time.

Can someone verify for me which end of the deal Xoc is on?

So, how was it? Just got back from Barcelona, and have two days to go until I fly out to LA (so couldn't make this one). I really do quite fancy coming to the next one though.

Yeah, I missed it too.
So what was it like?
I need your tales of drunken debauchery... they nourish me.

And yeah, Benny, you should definitely come along to a meet. Lots of fun, and we're actually not that difficult to spot.

OK, we had some drinks and talked about duvets and then went outside and I didn't have anywhere to live and Haus said I could go and live with him only I had to hit him and then we had a fight and then we had a lot of fights and Haus revealed he was like, the part of me that's afraid of sleeping with icky girls and then we blew a lot of shit up and then I went home.

It was fun.

I couldn't attend, so I sent my quieter, spottier, chubbier twin brother with a bad haircut, Lars.

What, not Lightweight Lars? The one who was so hungover he had to leave really early?! I tells ya, he's an amateur at these Xmas festivities, a mere amateur.

Well okay I buggered off quite early too, I admit. Circumstances waaay beyond my control. Sorry to those I didn't get to chat to/wish Happy Xmas to/start fights with. Oh and sorry to wish completely and utterly the wrong Anna Happy Birthday... I must read threads more slowly in future.

And thus it is to the correct Anna that I now say: Many Happy Returns, m'dear!

Well, if I will insist on changing my nonfictionsuit the same week people start making jokes about Anna de L being Flyboy's beard...

It was a rather, erm, subdued meet, I thought. Not nearly up to usual debauched standards.

And I sprained my ankle on the way home, for which I blame Gypsy Lanterns bloody bibliomancy, picking an entry on the Duchy of Cornwall -- last time I sprained my ankle was in Cornwall this summer, and it took almost four months to heal! And this time it hurts even more. So obviously, I am not a happy bunny right now... and that's without the obvious bah, humbug mood I've been in all week...
