Well done Jem!

I'd be more than happy to meet up with you all.

As for dates, shame October is all booked up but there's only one weekend (The 18th) in September that I can do.
The 18th is actually my preference in September too, so that's a good start (watch everyone else be busy on the 18th...)
Just you and I then! I'll bring my Switch and a giant book of quiz questions.
Sounds fun, I'm in.
Excellent. Close the thread and I shall see you there.

Sorry everyone else. You snooze you lose.
If the website is accurate, that weekend (17th - 20th) is the only weekend available until 2022. Unless we want to pay £4.5k for July. (We don't want to pay £4.5k for July.)
We are both in if it's not too spendy.
18th Possibly is good, I will see if Julie wants to come..
Sweet, that's 8 tentative yeses for that weekend (assuming Gaz is a yes, but does he get an opinion? no)
I would be in for then
Thanks for taking this on Jem.
Either the weekend of 10/11 Sept or 18/19 works for me.
18th is good for me.

Basically anytime atfter august.
Nice, so that gives us tentative yeses for:

Jem
Gaz
Kris
Zeppo
TheVision
Goddess Jasmine
Joans
KovacsC (with poss +1)
Curiosity
Kern
Mr Dave
Rach
Put me down as a maybe
I'm in probably depending on specifics
Actually called it 'the cottage' on the phone to the chap this morning and chuckled to myself. :DD

He's double-checking it's not been booked for those dates (17-20 Sept) on any rental websites and will confirm for definite on Monday.
Scratch that, all confirmed.

He says there's Airsoft on site now so if that's something people are interested in I can ask for more details.

Airsoft in Cowboy Town? Fuck the apology, MaliA - you can shoot the naysayers!

Excellent! Thanks Jem!
Yus, yus, I am up for this! Count me in. x
Yay, fantastic!

Just so we're all in the loop: the big house is defo confirmed and I said I'd let him know re: little house. As it stands we have 17 yeses and a maybe which puts us at just under £120 per person. Obviously will wait til I hear from others before confirming definite £££s but hopefully that's roughly on a par with previous cottage spends.

Grim... - are you able to ask the Hursts and Emelia?

Hmm, might have to redo it. I think it's been wiped
I can bring mine nae bother.
I can probably bring mine, and then DavPaz and GazChap can fix the games that don't load.

Also we'd finally have an arcade machine in that back room that works :D
Grim... can you ask the Hursts / Emelia / other people who would normally attend who don't post who I might be forgetting, pretty please? :luv:
Done those three. Is there anyone else?
Zeppo? Bamba? CUS?

Yo.

I've got TheVision a present so he has to come.


I love it when a plan comes together! :hug:
Zeppo's already in, and we have a maybe in my other friend and colleague (although he's not an extreme BeEx lurker, I don't know if he's ever been here) Sean, aka fentron.
I mean I don't care what he thinks he's called, he'd better like having FEEENNNTOOOOON shouted at him

I still know where it is, too!
Put me down as a maybe, just me on my lonesome though, as D hated every single one of you.

(actually she would love to come, but we have sick dog issues that means someone needs to be back at the house every 6 hours to administer tablets, and the dog isn't well enough to travel)
:DD noted - thanks!

Cropped for privacy reasons, but when he saw this post this was his response in our team chat:

Gonna need a lot of bullets
Right my lovelies, it would be helpful to start collecting deposits on this just so I can firm up definite numbers.

For those who's attendance is dependent on finances, as it stands, if none of the maybes turn up we're looking at about £110 per person. If all of the maybes turn up we're looking at just under £100 per person. Hopefully that's enough info to help you make a decision :)

If you're absolutely 100% sure on attendance please send £20 deposit dosh to:

Oh, I didn't do this bit :shrug:

DON'T STEEL MAH DOLLAHS
It's fine, it came up with your name. :D

Do I have to send nudes now, or...?
I always put something inappropriate as a reference when sending friends money, because I'm a child.

PROHINT: You can't edit those fuckers, so if you accidentally tell (say) your gardener that (say) you're paying for used panties, that shit's not going away.
In other news - is it not a bad idea to put your bank details in the public-facing bit of the forum?

I usually send ascii boobs

re: bank details in public - I have to approve transactions out of that account so not sure people would get anywhere. Plus it's empty, aside from the cottage pot, which you can't use as spends unless you withdraw specifically from the pot first (I think that's how it works?)

So I *think* I'm OK, but would prefer you didn't test my logic. :DD
