Pretty set. Once I call the chap up and confirm then it will be in stone. STONE I TELL YOU!

Consider also that we've gone to the exact same place on the exact same date for six years now.

So you tell me, it could be an incredibly elaborate trap for all I l know.

I'm a maybe at the moment I guess. It depends on the same things as the last three years all falling into place again.

The quiz was the trap. And here you are, booking tickets for the cottage, so it got you.

If the quiz was a trap then it was a really shite trap given that I just walked away. You guys really need to work on that for the sake of future victims.

ETA: although, granted, I didn't do a full check the next day that all my organs were still present and correct so it's possible I'm just not giving you enough credit here.

Okay, I reckon it's probably about time I do this. So, er, yeah - in!

Anyone can butcher someone to make a human suit from their skin. That's not the fun. The fun is from playing with them first.

Tempted to go to the cottage just to spend the entire weekend shouting offensive Scottish prejudices at bamba in an offensively piss poor 'scotch' accent. Seven hours at the quiz wasn't long enough to be truly appallingly offensive and tedious.

Which is annoying when we have to turn up on a Tuesday.

Yeah, at the time it occurred to me that the format of a night based round a really loud pub quiz wasn't the best way to actually get to know anyone. Later though I realised this was actually a bonus.

There's a super fast train from King's X to Derby so it's possible. I'll give it a think

You can just come for a day but it's like seeing the middle hour of a film you haven't seen before. You have no idea how things got to this point and you really will want to see how it ends.

The rituals of the elite Sunday evening club are some of the world's greatest mysteries.

Doctor Glyndwr · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 32619

Coming for only one day means you are at most getting either the Yes Chef!s Present... -or- Sunday Cinema Club, but not both; clearly that isn't enough.

MaliA · **Posted:** Tue Apr 05, 2016 12:01

I might be around on Sunday this year.

Not ironic - just dumb.

I can give a more definitive answer if someone can give me a ballpark on cost :DD

(Sorry if this is elsewhere, couldn't see it in the topic.) The biggest stretch I could do is Friday evening to Sunday afternoon.

Cost depends on numbers attending, but is usually in the region of 100 quid per person.

NervousPete · **Posted:** Wed Apr 13, 2016 14:52

£100, that's not too bad. Even though I am pitifully paid Bob Cratchitt-style.

My first Beex cottage experience! I am greatly excited. There is room for me, right? Right?
