I have no clue, I'll get her to google what's near you and she can take her pick

Just managed to drag Philbottle away from GTA V long enough to get him to confirm his presence too.

[Diddums 4,346]

Tam - SW16 2NU.

[burnfitbillyboy 505]

Cheers bud

[tronic44 3,642]

That's Dave trying to guess your licence plate number btw, that's not a postcode.....

...or is it?

[Chookes 965]

I'm packed.

[Diddums 4,346]

Don't forget your toothbrush.

[Chookes 965]

I'll just borrow Rich's.

 

Train from Gatwick to Victoria booked.

[Just Cal 461]

Should I bring shoos? Pub shoos.

And a shirt? How's the dress code for London?

[burnfitbillyboy 505]

Oh shit good point, can you get in the pub in trainers? If not I'm fucked!

[Diddums 4,346]

Pubs yes, clubs no. Bring some fancy shoes just in case, Tesco ones hurt like fuck (talking from experience here).

[burnfitbillyboy 505]

Damn I don't think I have any, maybe have to buy some cheap ones when I'm there

[Diddums 4,346]

They're like a tenner at Tescos, you're not going to wear them lots anyways.

[burnfitbillyboy 505]

That's cool, what about a shirt?

[Diddums 4,346]

Just a normal shirt will do. It's London, we're not that posh.

[burnfitbillyboy 505]

Does it have to be a shirt though or can I just wear a standard t-shirt

[Diddums 4,346]

I wear T-shirts. Then again, I'm fucking sexy.

[burnfitbillyboy 505]

Not a truer word has been said...

[Just Cal 461]

Well I'm off to the airport.

[burnfitbillyboy 505]

See you soon bud

[Just Cal 461]

When you leaving man? I'm looking at my plane as I type

[Diddums 4,346]

Y'know what?

 

I'm just wrapping up my night shift so I'm tired and emo, but I can't help but think how awesome it is that we've come this far. This is truly amazing. Had you asked me three years ago if I could ever see this happen, I would've laughed and shrugged it off, and yet here we are today, people travelling hundreds, if not thousands of miles by planes, trains and automobiles to meet up for a good time. Strangers, from the internet. People that have never met before. Think abotu that for a moment.

 

I hate tooting my own horn, but Clive, you can suck my balls. This wasn't all me, but I like to think that I played a fairly large role by saving this awesome community to begin with. This was all Dave's idea and a cracking one at that, so Dave, thanks for this. Thanks to those of you who have paid / helped pay for tickets for others, and thanks to those of you who are coming down, this is going to be an epic weekend and one I have looked forward to for a very long time.

 

I wish you all a safe journey, drive safely, wear your seatbelts, and don't do anything stupid.

 

See you all tonight.

[burnfitbillyboy 505]

Nice speech Dave, I'm so glad you saved our community because let's face it Clive, Auptyk and the brown nose killed the last forum. Thanks Dave (plumber) for the brilliant idea and I can't wait to meet you awesome people later on today... Except Euan
