At last! Someone making decisions.

Sounds good Mac, not sure if I'll have the energy for clubbing though...

A mondeo eh ?????

Do we all get a shot in it, I havent had fun in a ford since i lost my virginity ?

Glasgow will be cheaper for hotels mate, there are some good premier inns and Jury's is quite cheap

Murf · Post by **Murf** » Thu Nov 03, 2005 5:56 pm

sounds like a good plan to me!

anyone want to start a list of who is definately in?

Richmann1 · Post by **Richmann1** » Thu Nov 03, 2005 6:05 pm

I was thinking about where we are going to end up club wise? its been a a couple of months since i was last out in scotland. Easiest place to stagger home to

mac star · Post by **mac star** » Thu Nov 03, 2005 6:08 pm

sallysal · Post by **sallysal** » Thu Nov 03, 2005 6:13 pm

Cheers for that. In Glasgow there is an ibis quite near the centre that i quite often use for 49.95 a night. Travel inns are doing rooms for Â£30 quid a night if you book it that week if there are rooms left. I am easy either way ill stay in Glasgow on fri night and wherever on sat.

I'm 90%...

I know a tatty B+B for Â£25 per night, not far from Murf's

reynolds_p1 · Post by **reynolds_p1** » Thu Nov 03, 2005 10:14 pm

Im def in - if its definitely ok with Murf to crash in his spare room/on his sofa on Sat night!

@Sally- i could bring that 1/2 leather interior up for you from newcastle (under lyme) if you like as its near as dammit on my way? shal i see if i can get it for Â£80?

Murf · Post by **Murf** » Fri Nov 04, 2005 7:13 am

Roo is on holiday at the moment but i'm his self appointed spokesman!
put him down as going and he can have my couch/spare room (whichever one reynolds_p1 doesnt get 1st!), i'll twist his arm a bit when he gets back

mac star · Post by **mac star** » Fri Nov 04, 2005 1:06 pm

So do Ally, Sally, Don Paulo and I get floor space ??

is Rohan in ?

Murf · Post by **Murf** » Fri Nov 04, 2005 4:59 pm

Yep, rohan is going, he might have to nip off for a while to attend to some business but he shouldnt be too long!

2 is about the most for my mini sized gaff without it looking like a slave ship! Rohan has 3 spare room in a tenement flat! i dont want to offer up his flat without him knowing (oops, i just did!) but i'm sure you can crash at his!

sallysal · Post by **sallysal** » Fri Nov 04, 2005 5:29 pm

okay I've added everyone in!

donpaulo · Post by **donpaulo** » Sun Nov 06, 2005 11:37 am

Saturdays just not gonna happen for me....boooooo. got to cook fish for 14 hours, theres no way out of it. Sundays looking a little more hopeful....but only a little.

VanDerGraaf · Post by **VanDerGraaf** » Mon Nov 07, 2005 9:38 am

VanDerGraaf's is in a state of disarray at the moment! I think Paul has imagined more rooms in a drunken perambulation of my flat at the last meet!

Anyway i was talking to Paul last night, and i suggested having a drink in the ABC bar(s), they're very nice, and (ahem) that's where i'll be watching VanDerGraaf Generator

Seriously, it is in Sauchiehall Street so it's convenient, and has three nice bars. Don't know about entry costs if any?
