Do we have a plan for the Saturday night yet? Or is it 'somewhere near those hotels above'?

I know this thread's a mess, but I've selected The Shipping Forecast as a good fit for our tastes. It has nice beer, comfy seats and, ahem, bookable areas.
Also, what's the general feeling about the Saturday morning activity? Bearing in mind it is a fair way outside of the city, I can understand if people aren't keen.
Sorry we have our kids that weekend.... bugger!

Uh - I'll tell you later. Websense thinks that Catton Hall is a 'weapons page' 8)

Heh, it is. They do shootings there :)

Marvellous.

Read your email!
The Shipping Forecast wasn't there when I was there, I don't think. Looks ace. I just went to Rigby's or Fly on the Loaf. Or occasionally somewhere else, but mostly those.
I really should ask the wife for permission to go to this...
Wait - Saturday morning? Wouldn't that be "arriving / travelling"?

Y'know I hadn't considered that.
Now I don't know if that's sarcasm or not :(

Confused thread is confusing.

Anyway, I won't be there until the evening.
No, sorry, not sarcasm. I genuinely hadn't considered travel time. I'm an idiot.

Well, if there are no objections, I'll cancel the Catton Hall section and we'll just do food, drink and Sunday movies.

Also, I will move all salient info into the first post and edit as necessary.
Hey, would it be possible to update the first post with dates, times and plan for the weekend please? We are thinking about doing this, would probably be Friday night arrivals if we did but I could do with seeing some of the details and I don't have time right now to go through the whole thread. Thanks duck (do I sound Liverpoolish?).
Also a list of attendees pls x
Duck is Nottingham. :P

And Stokie.
And Cank/Black Country.
I would avoid calling people duck in Liverpool. :)

I will update the first post when MrsP surrenders the laptop into my custody.

WTFF is MrsP doing with that laptop....?

Get it sorted, DavPaz.

We had a look at flights the other night but didn't really get very far, due to not knowing what the plan is.

We'd probably look at coming over on Friday night if others are going to be around. Then we need to decide when we're leaving, which depends on what's planned for Sunday.
Shush. I forgot. It's been a shit week.
First post updated.

I trawled the first 2 pages for "IN"s so if you think you should be listed but aren't, sound off like you've got a pair. Also, movie suggestions, keep em coming. We haven't decided yet.
Nicely done, DavPaz :P
Hoy! I am also in, plus 1. Arriving on the Friday some time after 8, having to leave middle of Sunday.

Several people's ovaries have just turned off with disappointment.
No, he simply meant he would post twice.

Mimi, he's offering you an x-rated weekend! Lucky cow...
Three x's, that's got to be worth more than a weekend, right?! Anyway, thread derailment - where are people staying? As a bargain hunter with no sense of the romantic, I've booked us in to the Travelodge in New Brighton. At some point that's going to be a right arse to get to, isn't it?
I've been reliably informed that unlike Nottingham, Liverpool has taxis.
New Brighton being on the other side of the river, of course. Not a problem, but increased travel time and taxi fees ahoy!

Ironically, it doesn't have car parks, however.
I thought that Liverpool had many 'secure' car parks. Young staff though.

Haven't we? I thought it was both Bill & Ted films, then Silence of the Lambs, then Aliens if we're not bored?

That's a very good plan and stands as the current front runner but it's still open to change if an amazing suggestion comes in

I live miles outside town but the theatre is 10 mins from the city centre.

"Sunshine" is a good cinema film, actually.

And then a Geometry Wars 2 tournament for head-fuck lols.
Depending on people's travel plans, we could have a very long day in that theatre. :D

And Scott Pilgrim.
So its not 'your' theatre then? I live in Ormskirk, are you out of town in my direction or another one?
South. Towards the airport
Any more solid 'IN's yet? I'd like to get the pub booked and need a firm number. Also, I love you all and insist you all come and play. All of you. Yes, even you.

I want Gilly and Jen, Doccy G and Danielle to come. Put their names down, DavPaz, it might trick them into coming.....
