Come down with the 'rona, trust me to get it when no-one cares about it anymore, so I'm out. Unfortunately.
― Buckfast At Tiffany's (Tom D.), Tuesday, 6 September 2022 16:29 (one year ago) link
Sorry to hear that Tom, hope youāre not feeling too bad / feel better soon. Iām on about a 60% chance of making it at present, depending on a bunch of stuff. Hope I can. If I do itāll likely be earlyish and not for terribly long.
― Tim, Tuesday, 6 September 2022 16:31 (one year ago) link
Tom - get well soon.

I'm sorry I missed this.

Anyone up for winter FAP?
Thinking 23rd Feb onwards.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 16 January 2023 09:38 (one year ago) link
Not too far forwards though.

Yeah second half of Feb suits me better
― bit high, bitch (gyac), Monday, 16 January 2023 11:30 (one year ago) link
Cool 23rd it is, will check in closer to the time.
― xyzzzz__, Monday, 16 January 2023 17:06 (one year ago) link
Iāll make it if I can.
― Tim, Monday, 16 January 2023 17:19 (one year ago) link
ah fuck just noticed 23rd clashes with my book club :/
― Daniel_Rf, Tuesday, 17 January 2023 10:50 (one year ago) link
I'm going to Barcelona the next day so can't get too smashed.
― A Drunk Man Looks At Partick Thistle (Tom D.), Tuesday, 17 January 2023 10:58 (one year ago) link
Not too smashedā¦ just smashed enough.
― Tim, Tuesday, 17 January 2023 11:35 (one year ago) link
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
Iāll 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 š
― 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).
