Request from Mat:

Can people bring some ping pong balls? He has a beer pong table and no balls.

My wife has just asked if I'm packed yet.

"Of course not. I don't go until tomorrow"

The Beexers were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of Craster's plums danced in their heads.
And Bobby had vodka, and I a night cap,
And BeexDrink made everyone's heads feel like crap.

When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
Some Nerf darts, a glass and the sound of a shatter.
I ran to the second cottage to replenish the bar,
But got distracted by seeing Mr Dave in VR.

I did not appreciate this enough at the time. It’s awesome

I'll be getting in at 13:34 at Derby train station. Happily, despite the fiddly walk to the bus station, the number 38 drops me off right by the turn-off to the cottage. Handy.

Other than some classic films and TV DVDs, a board game (probably Camel Up) my photography skills and rudimentary wit, I have little to offer, but I pray you all welcome me to my first Beex Cottage with welcome and mildly hungover arms.

I will bring these.

I'm on the bus to take me to the train station. Let's hope that this is smoother than last year...

I found my ping pong balls btw.

Jem · **Posted:** Fri Oct 13, 2017 7:43

I left the layers of my second cake covered in a tea towel overnight to cool ready to be iced and one of the fucking cats stomped all over it. >:(

You shouldn't have said anything. You'd have probably got away with that.

Kern · **Posted:** Fri Oct 13, 2017 9:06

There are cafés in Shoreditch where that's the appeal.

Unfortunately there's a great big paw shaped hole in the middle so the structural integrity is knackered, otherwise I'd have hidden it under icing

Sounds like a feature to me! Benefiting the people eating it with a light and airy center that will leave them wanting more....

It's all in the way you sell it.

Oh wow, it's the wrong way up. So much for iPhone being in the wrong, happens with Samsung too

Mr Dave · **Posted:** Fri Oct 13, 2017 11:39

OK, even by my standards, I may be a bit early.

GazChap · **Posted:** Fri Oct 13, 2017 11:39

Jem and I will most likely bring a couple of versions of Fluxx, probably Loot Letter and likely Codenames as well, which is an ace game that can be played with loads of people but we've only ever played it with 4.

... this is all in the spreadsheet

Cake 2 attempt 2 has gone wrong but I've put too much time into it to leave it behind so you can all eat fail cake and pretend to enjoy it.
