Be Excellent To Each Other

Mimi and +1, are you sure you're the +1?

Regardless, Mimi should have still been on the list, with or without me.

You were serious?!

Very tempted with this, consider me interested. My better half will probably be up for it also.

Are kids allowed? If so will see if I can get Mr Dom and his misses to come along.

Anyone got any problem with me offloading our surplus drinks cabinet on you all?

Super apologies to Mimi and Russ for the oversight. You have been added

So it wasn't a super-sekrit conspiracy, you just forgot?

Mint Julips for all!

Julep.

Thank you!

Not quiet My better half works for a rather large alcohol company so we have a crazy amount of booze. Used to do a few big party's a year to offload it but haven't for last few (must be getting old). So have loads of Spirits and Wine going.

Any response on kids? Would be nice to drag Mr Dom along, he has 2 little uns.

No, he was being his own brand of funny.

But Seriously, Curio, do you have to do that every year?. I get it...

No goats. At all. Regardless of age.

Oh, do come, Slightly Green. You are so nice

There was 2(?) kids last year, so very much doubt it is an issue with anyone.

Food thrown everywhere, constant attention seeking, annoying noise, getting in the way.

If you think the kids can deal with MaliA, then bring them along.

I am the little one being knocked over. Watching that on a loop has pretty much been a visual representation of me at work since January 2nd.

I haven't had a PC all week, and so much work.

'we need a report on the profitability and waste implications on a zillion lines at an undetermined period of projection for undetermined parameters, make sure your spreadsheet and associated Pivots are massively unwieldy with the wight of information presented in at least 20 different formats and projections, and do this without a computer. And let me stamp on your calculator for good measure. And your face.'

Cool, should be heading back to South Wales in a week or two so will have a chat with Mr Dom and Co. then.

EDIT -

So any Beexers in or around the Cardiff area these days?

Come anyway.

Mr Dom should come.

But you should come even if Mr Dom does not come.

Likewise, Mr Dom should come even if you do not come.

But what will be best is if you both come. With others.

Everyone should come.

Everyone should indeed come.

I transcribed the list from phone to paper to input to phone, but when someone (Nick?) added himself as a maybe I started a new maybe section at the bottom, and then added Mimi and Russ to the top of the list. Then when I put it back into the phone I skipped them so everyone would be listed in the correct order, but then forgot to go back to the top of the list.

True story.

SG - kids are fine as long as you don't mind them being exposed to excessive drinking, loud noises, unsafe things within easy reach and loud swearing. And that's just my daughter.

I'll be bringing my wife and child again. They usual go off on day trips together to local attractions, so they'd likely welcome company

Whatevs, Curio. I know your mean girls game.

I booked my days off work for this today. I control the holiday calendar, therefore am actually the most powerful person in the office.

LOL at me being a maybe

Nickachu, you spanner

That's not very kind.

See, Curio,,what is with you today?

Right? What a duck.

Apparently duck.

In. Your mum.

Not my kids, I was just asking with regards to Mr Dom, will see if he is up for it (well see if his lovely wife is, she will drag him along then).

Mimi I fully intend to be at the cottage this time with or without Dom.

Hurrah!

Dick

We need a bungalow

Omlette. Not scrambled eggs and bacon. It isn't fucking tricky.

It's nearly time to collect deposits and stuff. I will let you know how much when I get the paperwork through next week. Just a heads up to keep a few pennies aside for this if you can.

Yaycottage!

The Egg STILL ISN'T LISTED ON THE FIRST POST Jesus Christ Curio what do we pay you for #egggate

Yeah, I can't be bothered to update it until I start taking payments

Oh wait. In.

The Bank of Curiosity is now accepting payments of deposits.

The deposit is 570 pounds. The overall total payment is 2670 (that is more than last year, boo!).

I suggest 40 quid deposit now and the rest later.

Sound okay?

Yup.

How much was it last year?

We might have to leave this until a little nearer the time. Due to various things we might only be able to make it down for a few hours one day but won't be sure until closer to the date.

200 less.

Sorry to hear that, Mimi. Here's hoping providence lends a hand and you are able to come. I'll even add you to the list

Only remembered when we might not be able to make it. Figures!

Notable only in absence Thank you though, we'll see what happens down the line, just can't commit quite yet x

Done

Paid.

Distressingly few deposits received so far.

Ah. PM me the bank deets please dude and I'll sort out the sponds.
