Dr.Juzzy Posted October 1, 2001 Share Posted October 1, 2001 Inspired by the Washington DC gentleman's night out, are there sufficient CMBO players around in London, UK, for a similar event to take place? I'm only mooting the idea since there do seem to a few of us chaps around, although I don't know where we all live. Me, I'm in London so I'll happily buy a round if we can scrape together enough blokes. Let me know - I'll be the chap in the Bobby's Battle Bowler!

Viceroy Posted October 1, 2001 Share Posted October 1, 2001 Germanboy, I used to live round the corner from the George when I was a student in London. It's a nice pub. Hope you guys have a nice time and afterwards put up a photo of you all. Wish i could be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any photo of the event would have to include Andreas in it, since we know he cannot operate a camera. Do we really want to scare that many people away with one posting?

Viceroy Posted October 1, 2001 Share Posted October 1, 2001 Slapdragon, as a Bermondsey resident who used to eat the local Kebabs and Vindallos I can stomach anything even someone's ugly mug in the picture. Besides, I make it a rule never to eat anything while looking at this forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wesreidau Posted October 1, 2001 Share Posted October 1, 2001 Bah! I resent the idea that the stinky Yanks came up with this idea first. As far as I know the first CM meeting was me and the Germangirl when we watched the Brits loose to Portugal(?) in Euro2000. From there Chupacabra and others joined us in London drunking sessions. We are the first ok! PeterNZ ps. We already have pictures up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We feed him peanuts, and he is allowed to get us drinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Juzzy Posted October 1, 2001 Author Share Posted October 1, 2001 But gentlemen, where is the George? Give me a street and I'll be there a little later, say 20.00 :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you come out of the Borough High Street East Exit, you turn left (opposite direction to Tower Bridge) and after about 150-200 Yards there is the george in a backyard to your left. I send you an email in a few minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holien Posted October 2, 2001 Share Posted October 2, 2001 Come on guys do a Friday or a Saturday so us provincal lads can get in on the act. Banbury / Oxford is not far away and I would make the run on a night where I don't have to go to work the next day. Even if I had to drink Pop all night, that or pull a few strings with some of my Hounslow / Maidenhead friends. Anyway have a good night.

Holien Posted October 2, 2001 Share Posted October 2, 2001 Hmmm I think I am going to regret this... Bugger...

I have just checked kick off which is miday mark so I can make it down in the evening or afternoon depending on how I sell it to my beloved. :eek: H [ 10-01-2001: Message edited by: Holien ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Juzzy Posted October 2, 2001 Author Share Posted October 2, 2001 Beer from the States, now we're talking...see you chaps this evening. Perhaps we could lay on 'something for the weekend' nearer Xmas or the release of CMBB? (Am I wrong to equate the two?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
