I should be back the weekend of the 29th November. It is far to early for a Christmas meet, but if any of you lot want to buy me a pint, that's OK with me.

 

[derekgas]

Voted, easy to please!

 

[andrewb]

I'd hope I'll be around on the Saturday, not sure what date I'll be home from Uni so the Friday is iffy.

Edit: Oh dear, its Saturday the 29th of Nov... Friday is best for me if I'm back.

mmmm decicions decisions .........................

 

[flashy]

the original date is better for me, i'm at a 21st at ECC on the 6th...there will be two of us coming to the meet anyway, me and Richard...so that just leaves 23 more to come Mez

 

[churchman phil]

Me n 'erindoors can only do the friday 19th due to us working sat nights too.

voted as such

 

['erindoors]

Yeah!! What he said!

[garinda]

I'm happy with any of the dates.

Although I'd love to be there, I'm sorry I can't say for definite, as it depends if it's a good, or a bad, day.

 

[cashman]

voted sat 13th, though any sats ok wi me, only fridays am knackered.

 

[derekgas]

Thought you were knackered any day of the week mate?

 

[SamF]

Ahhh!!!... should I attend my first meet ? The only person I even vaguely know is andrewb

 

[Neil]

Why all the pressure for at least 25 to turn up?

I have said it before but I don't mind saying it again - why does it matter if 5 or 25 turn up? As long as you know a few of your friends are going to the pub for a drink and a chat then what is the problem?

I will not vote on this one. Whenever the meets are I turn up if I am free and don't if I am not.

I do miss the monthly meets, not to see loads of people there but just the usual regulars. As I work shifts I can not often turn up to them - I do when I can though.

 

[BERNADETTE]

Appologises I have voted any night will suit me but just remembered I am at a do on the 6th of December. Any of the other nights is ok

 

[harwood red]

I can prob do any of the saturday meets, but have picked the 13th as that is the only saturday where there is no footy..couldn't put all four dates as can't do the original friday date...

I am with Neil though I am happy if only a few turn up as its just nice to meet up with anyone off here and have a laugh, whether its 6 or 60

 

[cashman]

me also, aint bothered how many turn up, never had a bad night, companys always good.

 

[derekgas]

if there is a big turn out, there usually ends up groups of people anyhow, politics table, football table, smokers table (outside), bar propper uppers, and minglers! It isnt like everybody sits around the round table! Are the numbers in the vote a true reflection anyway, certain people are kind of expected (Mick, Mez etc) so do they vote?

 

[Mick]

yes we do Derek
The thing is our very first meet way back in Oct 2004 9 members came to that meet
and we have had some great meets since especially the Christmas meets where we have had 40 plus turn up
so you would expect a reasonable turnout to support Accyweb not just 10
It seams the decline in members coming to meets was when the Stag pub closed.
we had some great meets in there if you check the gallery and look at the Christmas meets in there we all had a great time.
we have always said new members are welcome and hope they will come to these meets.
but as numbers are falling it just does not seam worth carrying on with them.
As for Food at the meets
Mez and me used to pay for it if there was a short fall members saying they where coming we ordered the food and they would not turn up
so we started using football cards to get money for the food but even that left me and mez out of pocket
so we got fed up of it and decided not to do food unless we got the money in advance but like this meet only 3 members want it so its not worth doing so there will be no food at the Christmas meet.
one Christmas (see Gallery) me and mez bought a present for every member and dressed up to give them out it was great fun back then.
but things have changed sadly for the worse
