You’ll be missed Graeme but you couldn’t possibly be anywhere else but Claire’s side. All fingers crossed and very best wishes for a good outcome from surgery and treatment. Take care both.
You will be missed Graeme, completely understandable and right.
…On the upside a small part of you will be there (The raffle ticket you will of course be buying)
On the plus side, they’re certainly not hanging around with the surgery, so
for you both.
No question we will miss you both.
Claire is always at lopwel till at best Saturday afternoon, then she is mostly scoffed.
Take good care
All the best Graeme, it goes without saying* that you have to be there for Claire.
*I said it anyway ![]()
Boamigo goes Steampunk ![]()
I like how it looks completely fucked whilst still new in the shop - This is the mark of Raffle no mistaking
Just over a week to go and started to get the tingles for this one ![]()
Turning towards prep and who brings what -
1. Food
@Stepmotheratomicbomb have you got this planned out? I think you suggested Mexican on Friday and Saturday there will inevitably be pizza , and if people want I can do some Indian stuff
Do we know who is bringing what eg pizza oven, various ingredients etc?
Booze tends to take care of itself and everyone brings shit loads. Anyone bring the Rohypnocello this year?
2. Music Centre
Who is thinking of bringing what?
Depending on what other folks want to bring and use, I can offer to bring the Dartzeel preamp (on the plus side it does have a remote), SIT monoblocks (depending on what speakers we use).
I’ll bring my tape decks (but bear in mind those wanting to make any copies etc both my decks play 2T & 4T but are 2T only recording so you’ll need to bring your 4T recorders and some blank tape). We can set these up outside the main system to for dubbing if someone brings some headphones with 1/4" jack.
What’s everyone else thinking of bringing?
Unfortunately i can bring nothing this year other than food and booze. Will be getting a train home from Southampton, if it dont fit in a grip etc… given the journey through London on the underground I’ll be leaving axes at home too:)
A Bob without an Axe is like a bird with just one wing.
“Emotional-support axe”
Bob’s biography just got it’s title.
Good question; what to bring? Can do food and booze; as going directly from work, not sure about records- can do CD if someone is bringing a CDP…
Will see if I can put some records somewhere safer than Alison’s boot…![]()
Food is covered for the most part I’ve ordered the meat for Friday’s tacos and a rump cap for saturday night scissor hand steak. Breakfast is covered. Not sure who’s on pizzas and dough, I’ll bring nduja. I’ll get some other basics like salad etc, milk bread butter etc.
Feel free to bring anything else
I knew there was a reason I wasn’t going.
Wayne has to eat summat
I thought you were supposed to not feed him or get him wet - or am I thinking of summat else? ![]()
That’s only after midnight, silly ![]()
