Yes your right way to much organisation, lets just turn up and see what happens ----- bit like normal then, Loft on a Friday is good but I am now 50 so for me its wrong, then again its Dirty's Stag do so we may have to.

I intend to not loft at all, there are better things to do in Keswick on Friday night...
I have yet to look at the route, but sounds like riding and meeting the runners with booze might work... Mind, if I am in charge of gluhwein I may never make it :-o
OK Folks monies now due they want us to pay up by end of Nov so its £26.95 each don't let me chase you for it or I will send round the bad men!
I paid the deposit so out of your money you send to me I will take the Tenner back and send on the difference
Where do we send the money to Amex?
Last year's XOTF had a sad tone and very rightly so. This year's will be a celebration. For anyone looking at this and wondering what the hell is XOTF it's the Christmas forum social and it's always a grand weekend in Lakeland with mountains to climb (often sedately, this ain't no race), friendships to be made or re-forged, and fine North Country ales to be quaffed. Get your money in and your dancing shoes out. The more the merrier and everyone welcome!
Are you coming to Gravy Pud Amex? If you are I'll pay you there, if not send me some details - bank account if poss to save dicking around with cheques and I'll get it to you asap.
Still 20/21/22 December yes?

I think I am going to have to pass this year :( Alas, Mr OneHill doesn't know what he'll be working yet so can't come with and as the little OneHill requires services that Mr OneHill is unable to provide I can't leave him at home. Have fun everyone, I am going to sulk for a bit and raise a mince pie and mulled wine in your honour xxx
I just don't like them, i don't fear them. I was sat in the doctors waiting room earlier in the week with a sprog coughing and spluttering in my ear, i think it might have tried to communicate with me but i ignored it for fear of a faceful of splutter. The gran was really pissed off with me and started whining on about how i didn't want to know it and all that. There's a lot of infant related fascism around in today's world (Today's infant related Fascism???), it's a very difficult area to inhabit.
Money please---- you know who you are! Those who have not paid come on, or I will name shame and do rude things to you while holding a turkey.
Not coming this year either guys, being grumpy instead, hope you all have fun though.

Nigel pat have I got your cheque yet???????
Thanks don't miss it pal
Amex, have you had mine yet? Sent it Friday... had to order a cheque book especially for this occasion :eek:
I can't do the Saturday, wot happens on Friday?
Pony Taylor, text me your number, I dropped my phone in the bath on Tuesday.
Me and Martin (amex's mate) will be there about 9.30 pm Friday as martin (amex's mate) will have to stay with her indoors till the twins are in bed.
then we will journey up and speed drink.
Meet 11 am Moot Hall on Sat rest will fall into or out of place.
Still 3 to pay come on guys you knew the script
Have you received my cheque? I should certainly hope so after the ffort it took to order a cheque book, rwite the check, find and envelope, steal a stamp and find a post box ;)
Also, do these party people know I am a vegetarian? And where exactly are we partying, I can call them and check :)
Planning on arriving in Keswick in the afternoon in time for a spot of bargain kit hunting, chips and beer in the pub (not) by the Norwegian hat shop... i.e. the Dog & Gun... where I suspect we will be joined eventually by Amex and his mate around 9.30?
I will bring bike bags to carry mince pies and gluhwein as supplied by Amex and meet the runners at the tarn, roughly what time?
After that, I shall go and dress up for the evening party... Is it still fancy dress?
