Not too smashed… just smashed enough.

We could change it to March 2nd if it's easier for everyone
― xyzzzz__, Tuesday, 17 January 2023 11:46 (one year ago) link
I wouldn't be able to come to anything after Feb 23 and before late March, but don't let that stop you because I can't be certain I'll be around on the 23rd either.
― Tim, Tuesday, 17 January 2023 11:50 (one year ago) link
I’ll try and make this one, be lovely to meet you all finally. Late Feb is usually just out of the zone of whatever plague I seem to get at the start of every year.
― Chuck_Tatum, Wednesday, 18 January 2023 09:56 (one year ago) link
I could do March 2nd
― Daniel_Rf, Wednesday, 18 January 2023 10:38 (one year ago) link
Great. Chuck, can you make it then?
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 18 January 2023 10:40 (one year ago) link
Tim, we will make sure you can make it to Spring FAP till last orders 🙂
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 18 January 2023 10:42 (one year ago) link
I just postponed my contuining my MA until October so lotsa free time!
― Chuck_Tatum, Wednesday, 18 January 2023 12:52 (one year ago) link
Excellent. Let's go for the 2nd March.
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 18 January 2023 12:58 (one year ago) link
Is this going ahead? Unusually I can make it, and this week also marks the 50th anniversary of the publication of Gravity's Rainbow so feel the need to mark the occasion with a banana daiquiri or two.
― Piedie Gimbel, Monday, 27 February 2023 13:54 (one year ago) link
Yes it's going ahead on Thursday (was going to revive the day before).
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 27 February 2023 14:00 (one year ago) link

Oh fuck, totally forgot about this. I’m away till Friday.
― giant bat fucker (gyac), Monday, 27 February 2023 14:08 (one year ago) link
Always a next time.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 27 February 2023 14:31 (one year ago) link
I double-booked myself so won't be able to attend either :(
― Daniel_Rf, Wednesday, 1 March 2023 10:20 (one year ago) link
I will see whoever turns up at around 5.30/6 at the Royal Oak on Tabard St. :-)
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 1 March 2023 10:59 (one year ago) link
think i might pop by 😃
― mark s, Thursday, 2 March 2023 15:45 (one year ago) link
I can't make it to a FAP tonight till after 9:30. Would anyone still be around at that time?
(Assume this is Royal Oak.)
― the pinefox, Thursday, 2 March 2023 15:46 (one year ago) link
Was this deliberately scheduled for world book day?
― piedro àlamodevar (wins), Thursday, 2 March 2023 15:48 (one year ago) link
I might drop in. I've taken a couple of years off from reading books, but I'm thinking of getting back into it. They were pretty cool, some good stuff in books.
― woof, Thursday, 2 March 2023 15:48 (one year ago) link
Be great to see you woof, and all!
See as many of you later. (I am intending to be around past 930, but don't know)
― xyzzzz__, Thursday, 2 March 2023 15:52 (one year ago) link
This was not scheduled for World book day no, lol (haven't seen anything about it).
Chuck - if you attend I will have a red coloured book on the table.

Unfortunately not a good week for me but next time.
― Maggot Bairn (Tom D.), Thursday, 2 March 2023 18:30 (one year ago) link
I'm afraid a work deadline has intervened so I can't make it after all.
― Piedie Gimbel, Thursday, 2 March 2023 19:02 (one year ago) link
There will always be Spring.
Thanks to all who came in the end: Fizzles, woof, mark s.
― xyzzzz__, Friday, 3 March 2023 10:01 (one year ago) link
Sorry! I missed this thread revive. Will do better next time again (again).
― Chuck_Tatum, Friday, 3 March 2023 22:58 (one year ago) link
No problem. Everybody welcome.
― xyzzzz__, Saturday, 4 March 2023 11:02 (one year ago) link
When’s the next one, it’s been forever since I went
― giant bat fucker (gyac), Saturday, 4 March 2023 12:17 (one year ago) link
Not thought about it but it's usually once a season so looking at May sometime.
― xyzzzz__, Saturday, 4 March 2023 12:51 (one year ago) link
FAP to celebrate the coronation of the King of England in May?
Can do any Thursday though I'd like to avoid 11th.
― xyzzzz__, Friday, 21 April 2023 13:34 (one year ago) link
I think I’m in Ireland that week, but yeah others currently ok
― Everybody's gonna get what they got coming (gyac), Friday, 21 April 2023 13:45 (one year ago) link
👍
― xyzzzz__, Friday, 21 April 2023 13:52 (one year ago) link
Sounds good, haven't been to one in a while. Same for the coronation.
― Maggot Bairn (Tom D.), Friday, 21 April 2023 14:17 (one year ago) link
I think I'm around for each Thursday except the 11th also, usual availability caveats apply.
― Tim, Thursday, 27 April 2023 10:35 (one year ago) link
Great. Shall we go for the 18th?
― xyzzzz__, Thursday, 27 April 2023 11:13 (one year ago) link
Sounds plausible.
― Tim, Friday, 28 April 2023 06:09 (one year ago) link
That's the kind of positivity I like. Cool.
― xyzzzz__, Friday, 28 April 2023 09:02 (one year ago) link
18th is my anniversary so no offence lads, you know I love you but…
― Everybody's gonna get what they got coming (gyac), Friday, 28 April 2023 09:34 (one year ago) link
Lol well we can change that.
25th both good for Tim, gyac, Tom D?
― xyzzzz__, Friday, 28 April 2023 09:41 (one year ago) link
Does it absolutely have to be on a Thursday
― Everybody's gonna get what they got coming (gyac), Friday, 28 April 2023 09:56 (one year ago) link
... saying the unsayable.
― Maggot Bairn (Tom D.), Friday, 28 April 2023 09:59 (one year ago) link
Lol no it doesn't just ended up that way.
What day is better for you, gyac?
― xyzzzz__, Friday, 28 April 2023 10:12 (one year ago) link
I don’t care, but if the week of the 18th is ok for people maybe keep it so?
― Everybody's gonna get what they got coming (gyac), Friday, 28 April 2023 10:25 (one year ago) link
25th sounds fine to me. I rather like the Thursdayness.
― Tim, Friday, 28 April 2023 10:37 (one year ago) link
Gyac - want to try and be as accommodating to all as possible. You can't do the 18th so 25th it is. Hope you can make it then.
