For the avoidance of doubt.

The Monotreme Christmas Soirée is /next/ weekend, not this one. So far only
one person has made this mistake, and he appears to have been misdirected.

ROFL, that's excellent. Name and shame.

 

I'll leave that to the individual concerned - as I said, he may have been
misdirected.

Besides, no-one who shows up with a carload of booze to liven up a quiet
Saturday night is unwelcome...

 

Well, in defence of the clueless fucktard in question, he did receive a
text message from a laydee social secretary of the Bristol parish
saying 'are you going to Platy's party /this/ Saturday'. Msg received
05-dec-05, so not an entirely unreasonable assumption.

I was misdirected yeronnor.

Still, as the monotreme indicates, wine and beer were consumed, some of
aunt polly's special vegetable elixir, and a 1/4 bottle of malt. So not
all bad ;-)

Cheers

but as you also originally replied you couldn't make it, I hadn't
bothered replying

yes - I did get your text message at 3.15 am reminding me of the above
fact!

As some panniers are now missing from my garage I assume my
underground railway duties are now over?

 

Your timing was spot-on: showing up at the door with a bottle of wine, just
as I was about to serve dinner.

Heh. You seem rather to like Boots' Cyprus poteen...

 

If his liver comes out with it's hands up then that's nothing to do
with me.

 

Heh, it wsn't bad really. Bit like a brackish Grappa.

No thudding headache the next morning, so I wasn't unduly methanol
poisoned !
