Re: Lb xmas meet in brighton

As I'm sure you are aware, Inca, LB meets are the epitome of sobriety, much like a Quaker assembly.

I've seen the pics (on Crimewatch) and I've heard the tales,,they are about as sober as I am an Olympic Gymnast"""

Re: Lb xmas meet in brighton

Just had our afternoon CCC (Coffee, Cheesecake+chat) with Jax and yes she is coming to Brighton, hopefully she has gone home now to reserve her room. I have offered both Jax and Plan B lifts should they require them as we have room in the car and they live the nearest. Jax sends her love to you all and looks forward to meeting up with us in Brighton.xxx

[QUOTE=PlanB;364724]Is this last orders for Brighton? I will be there.

I haven't currently got a hubby to bring but I could bring somebody else's [/QUOTE

Cels leaving her hubby at home, and according to how the West Ham game goes mine will be worse than useless, so thats three girls on their own and I know a few late night bars we can visit lol.

Wish I could meet and greet you all but its a long way!

Thats a shame Wales but perhaps the next meet will be nearer to you, we do try to get around the country.

Re: Lb xmas meet in brighton

Great post Bill--much wit as ever

I certainly hope you all have as much fun organising the Brighton meet as I did with the York meet

There were hundreds of pubs within the City Walls and I had to select 2 over a 4 month period--it was "thirsty work"--but someone had to do it

I also doubt I can make it - as my passport has run out

But we'll see nearer the actual date

Re: Lb xmas meet in brighton

I must just say that I thoroughly enjoyed the York bash last year that Turbo had such a big hand in organising, along with Tuttsi, Cel, and many others. It was great to be among the Beagle pack for the 'group' activities, but it was also great to be able to do a bit of 'Al Fresco,' and just branch off and do as we wished in smaller groups - or even singly. The Beagles' dinner at the Hilton was absofably wonderful, and a resounding success IMO. It was utterly informal (for those who may no longer fit into their evening dress or ball gowns) - but some jerk still turned up in a bow-tie, while others did jeans & trainers. Even the other diners in the restaurant applauded Cel's magnifico speech - but I'm not sure what they made of the Legal Beagles' "howl" which Cel elicited from us all (you'll need to practice that - or bring a hunting horn). The Beagles' dinner is by no means compulsory - but I thoroughly recommend it, if you can manage it.

For those Beagles who are truly "In the Spirit" on that occasion - do NOT ask why Fox is not on the menu. It is considered inedible, and the unspeakable Chef Luigi WILL pursue and kill you. Any starter will do, but avoid the DCA Cocktail - the little critters are usually half-baked and have eaten all your lettuce before you get near it. The Bailiff Bisque may be a better bet - traditionally consumed through a straw, as the dish was created for those without teeth. For Main, I recommend the Shyster Thermidor - but you may need to ask for a steak knife as this mean little crustacean often has a very tough shell, and the meat is still very tough once you get to it. As for Dessert - anything that you consider is 'just' should be satisfactory !!! I don't think I need to advise on what coffee to order, do I ? The French, of course.

I much regret that I don't think I will be able to make it to Brighton, as we at the "-K" mansion have totally blown our budget on riotous living already, and are in danger of having to move into the Lodge. Brighton is a great place and has happy memories for me, and I don't think anyone will be disappointed. If I can get there, then I will - and I'll continue devising 'cunning plans' until I come up with a decent-sized turnip.

Go for it, guys, and go for it 100% !!!
