XMAS PARTY 4th Dec 2010 - Brighton

Just a few drink on a saturday evening, at a location near a train station, I am plumping for Brighton,

But if some one wants to organise somthing more, let me know and more than likely I will let you !!

A early December Saturday evening. 4th or the 11th ?

2/11/10 UPDATE - 4th DEC 2010 - Time and location TBC
But meeting early evening for a food and a few drinks.

With my arm thoroughly twisted, I could possibly check out a few pubs in the Brighton station area, for research purposes, and this event only, of course.

I like the sound of that. We won't even have to ride old bicycles first to justify meeting for some beer

The Sussex Yeoman is nice. Or The Eddy. The Windmill is great, but a bit further from the station. Lots of nice pubs in the North Laine area not far from the station – The Eagle, The Basketmakers...

The Yeoman is good but its more of a food pub and if you want to book a table to sit at its best to do it before-hand. I know the owner so thats not a problem with a bit of notice.

As for The Eddy... erm, I heard of it! I won't say how often I am in there but if the date end in the letters d.a.y there is a strong possibility. Not a problem to organise something there either I am sure. Windmill is good, Eagle is great but gets busy and I don't really visit the Basketmakers but its OK.

Geek club I am in also visits the Florist, good beer, and no doubt its worth an ask. So yeah, much agreed, sounds good.

Bryan555 /Da-Evo can I leave this in your capabule hands ?

and to whoever voted no, care to share why not ?

So, if we are going to do this, can we have a straw poll on whether peoples want food or they just want to cut straight to the beer!

Beer is easier, food is not hard to organise but would need a little bit of notice.

Thanks

D

Im easy either way.

Food might be a little more civilised (and fill the stomach prior to all that beer..)

Seconded.

Shall we all go out to dinner?

I recently sent DA-EVO a PM saying maybe drinks would be easier to organise! I was worrying that we wouldn't be able to get folk to commit, making it hard to book. That said, it would be more civilised to sit and eat.

Have you seen me eat, not that civilised
