View Full Version : Who went to forum get together?
Nutronic 22-08-2003, 12:28 AM Greetings,
I myself and my other half went to the meet it was ace!
Geoff had'nt appeared when I was there, did he arrive??
Anyways I managed to get a few pics well 3 actually due to some people not wanting to be on them, which is understandable i suppose.
Oh yeah one final thing, who was that her name :| anyway she shall remain anonymous for now ;):mrgreen:
More info on the pics i took soon, tomorrow after my show maybe.:D
DaBouncer 22-08-2003, 09:52 AM Great night during the time I was there, even took a mate of mine to the gathering and he said he enjoyed it too.
Great to put a face to the user ID's of the people on here, and again Moon my apologies for forgetting the pic of Richard Harris.
No one arm wrestled me thankfully, couldn't believe it when Richard (the mod) came down, didn't realise who he was until he introduced himself and then from his AVATAR I could see it was him.
Lets make the next one (as LouiseB mentioned) around November time, when hopefully peeps wont be on hols so much and the gathering could be a fuller one.
The food that Classic Rock put on was very nice, I enjoyed it (even went back twice). What was that beef thing? Was it in black bean sauce?
All in all and 'eventful' night and I'm glad I went!
Classic Rock 22-08-2003, 10:09 AM It was rump steak in red wine sauce. Glad you liked it.
anyone got any pics up yet?
Belle 22-08-2003, 10:19 AM Hiya
It was a great evening and I put my money on mystery lady being Chloe after all, having read all the threads there is no-one else it could have been, and I was expecting her...
Classic Rock did a fab spread, really attractive and lovely food.
And what an attractive bunch of people we looked too! Sheffield Forum - for the beautiful people.
Seriously, I didnt think we looked all that geeky really, considering how we met...:lol:
And it wasnt noisy and we had lots of space and actually some of our numbers were quite young, so that didnt seem to have been a problem in the end
I hope those that said they were coming but didnt make it in the end, are now feeling VERY ENVIOUS! :lol:
I was thinking sometime in October for our next one, does a Thursday still suit? It suits me.
Louise

DaBouncer 22-08-2003, 10:48 AM I know it wasn't Chloe Loiuse, but I aint saying who it was (figured it out) ;)
Thursday's (at the mo) are OK with me. So long as we don't get anymore argumentative peeps who need a word from DaBouncer then I'm all for it. My bouncer time aint free :P :lol: 8) ;)
Classic Rock 22-08-2003, 10:54 AM I don't mind hosting another meet if you wish. Better to pick October as the pub contract runs out at the start of November (don't know yet if we can get an extension to that). Of course I hope to see you all calling into the pub on a more regular basis now!!!:lol:

Me, Foxxx, Zamo and Hiyabeing stayed to the bitter end and I don't think Geoff turned up. Unless he took one look and did a runner. :)
Oh yeah, thanks for the incense sticks Moon! My house smells gorgeous and I haven't even opened the packet yet! :)
Belle 22-08-2003, 02:31 PM Well if it wasnt Chloe, was it Tina?
i guess we'll never know who it was.. ;) :wave:
Belle 22-08-2003, 03:05 PM LOL
But I am full of curiousity
Was it you? I always assumed you were a bloke but hey what do I know?
lol wasnt me, i was here (as jon can testify :lol: ) and yes im a bloke... well one year to go until im a bloke according to the law ;)
hiyabeing 22-08-2003, 04:51 PM Thanks for that Lou, I cant remember anything after my 5th double Vodka - I've not even had any tiny flashbacks.
Got up for work this morning though - hadn't even set the alarm.
Clik32 22-08-2003, 06:04 PM It wasn't me, lol. What is this about a mystery lady anyways?
Chloé
DaBouncer 22-08-2003, 06:07 PM There was a young lady at the gathering who wishes to remain undesclosed but contributed to conversation anyways.
Very nice girl, but obviously (at the mo) would like to have her identitiy to remain hidden.
Fairy snuff I say!
Foxxx 22-08-2003, 08:20 PM Well it was a good night. Been feeling very tired today...must have been all that dancing I did at the end. Nice to not get told to drink up and get out too!
Classic Rock..we rocked on the good old dance floor! :headbang:
Hey I just remembered we were all doing the hair trick!
Thanks for the lovely food, and good tunes, especially the britney spears baby one more time played at varying speeds, that was interesting to dance to! I shall be back, for a bit more skid row, Led zep and crotley moo!
Nice to meet you all, and Moon Maiden, my house smells nice too and I haven't opened the joss sticks yet either!
Hiyabeing...good drinking style!
hiyabeing 22-08-2003, 10:17 PM I remember doing the hair thing!
Thanks for providing me with a few more minutes of what I did last night. You want to elaborate more for me - I cant remember dancing - but I do love to dance so its quite possible.
:lol:
kittykat 22-08-2003, 10:22 PM god i dont think id dare come to the next meetup. you all sound scarily drunk! i dont really drink a lot so i think id feel like your 18 year old grandma.
Moon Maiden 23-08-2003, 01:06 AM Helloo,
managed to get online inbetween stripping wallpaper!!
Lovely night - even managed to get the recipies for the buffet that was laid on!! Loverly stuff!!
What an absoultely great bunch of people you all are. Louise B you are star!!! canne wait to see you all again.
For anyone wishing more Nag Champa - they are £1 a packet and you can also get a room mist of the same fragrance £2.50. But you should all come to the shop anyways :D
I am up for October just don't make it the 31st I tend to be a little busy :D
Moon Maiden
Nutronic 23-08-2003, 07:27 AM I enjoyed it hence the pics taken here (http://www.nutronic.net/pics) and also may be seen in The Classic Rock bar again soon (if i can get served) I enjoyed the snap that was on but want to know what happened to the chicken, i liked it and was gonna grab another peice but it had gone :( oh well.
Anyways thanks for the food CRB Peeps and really hope that IF we do have another meet then EVERYONE will arrive :)
Steve
*Twinkle* 23-08-2003, 08:53 AM The piccy's are good, I just wish I knew who was who on them! lol! Would anyone care to enlighten me?
Looking at the piccy's, I'm glad I didn't go, I would've felt a bit daft really! Everyone looks more older and wiser than I am! I'm Creche material lol!
Clik32 23-08-2003, 08:59 AM Lol, that's what I thought, Caprice!! Can the next one be early October rather than later. Same as Moon Maiden (been busy), on 31st I'm going to be an aunty again!
Chloé
Phanerothyme 23-08-2003, 09:39 AM Aww, looks like you had a really good time.
I *must* try harder to make the next one.
Great Pics SheffLive. Any chance of captions?
DaBouncer 23-08-2003, 11:08 AM I'm up for early october if everyone else is.
In this pic (http://www.nutronic.net/pics/Dscf0004.jpg) from left to right:

No need for that. I'm camera shy!:lol:

Or you might have been recognised from the FBI's most wanted, perhaps?
Classic Rock 26-08-2003, 10:56 AM So, lets organise the next one! Is Thursday good for people or would you prefer a weekend?
Shall I nominate Thursday 9th October? Yay or nay?

At the moment that date is OK with me, however I may be working away. Will have to find out nearer the time!
Red 2 26-08-2003, 07:54 PM yeah why was she so special? was she fit?
i was preparing for the leeds festival or i would have come! metallica were amazing!
Moon Maiden 28-08-2003, 12:00 PM That date is fine with me so far!!

Hmm, the hair trick is easier do to than describe! It's Foxxx's trick originally so I don't want to steal the limelight! But it involves hanging your head upside down then rolling your hair tightly then kind of tucking it in at the top so then when you come back up you have an attractive beehive type thing going on! Works best with long hair.

I had only had one drink Kittykat cos I was driving. There were a few others driving too so they weren't drinking. So if you were to come to the next get together I'm sure there will be others who won't be drinking much. :D
E-Man Groovin 29-08-2003, 07:23 AM Can't believe that I missed the meet. :( I've been so busy with one thing and another that I didn't know it was on... Somebody email me with the date time & venue of the next one...!
an unhappy Z-Man
cosywolf 01-09-2003, 10:23 AM Glad you all had such a great time...
More piccies please:D
See you there next time...but at the Sheffield Fayre first, of course.
mikey 01-09-2003, 10:28 AM Looks and sounds like a good night, sorry I missed it, just got back from Jollies yesterday.
More piccys please or at least a definative list of who attended.

I don't think anyone else took anymore pictures. I didn't think to take my camera either. The pictures have mostly got everyone in who went (except DB who managed to avoid being photographed!).
Who went: SheffieldLive (plus girlfriend), Moon Maiden, LouiseB, Zamo, Hiyabeing, DB (plus mate), Richard, Mystery female guest ;) , Foxxx, me and of course Classic Rock. There was another girl there but I didn't get to speak to her so I'm not sure if she was with the forum or not! Hope I've not missed anyone!
Belle 01-09-2003, 02:10 PM You all forgot f_g who came with her dishy bloke
I had a lovely time (and only one drink) and I think Sheffield Live and his g/f are under 18 (or close to it) so we werent all as old as me
LOL
October 9th sounds good, 16th sounds better
Louise
xx
PS I actually enjoyed meeting everyone that spoke to, a handsome bunch of quality people, all of whom I would be more than pleased to see again.
Now I would like those missing regulars to get there too this time - Cosy and Phan and Mike and Mikey and CycleRacer and MaxT who said he was coming but didnt appear to, and of course Geoff

Meant too but Thursdays are difficult as I have a fencing club to run.
cosywolf 01-09-2003, 02:18 PM Wild horses couldn't keep me away from the next one (but we'll have to see what other creatures fate can throw at me, lol). I'd love to meet everyone.
Were the numbers pretty much what was expected? This list sounds smaller than the numbers in the poll...

Ahh! I think that'll be the girl I didn't get to speak to then.

I think about 22 said they were going originally (or something similar) so that's more than who turned up... I went with Foxxx so if I hadn't had anyone else to go with I probably would have been too shy to go on my own! So maybe a few members got last minute nerves?!

PaulTansley 03-09-2003, 06:29 AM Beers on you then Marie.;)
Nutronic 05-09-2003, 01:11 PM I know that Monica at Monica's Bar has agreed to run our meets there with some top nosh for free when she opens the BAR for good, once the work has been completed inside the bar etc...8)
DaBouncer 05-09-2003, 02:28 PM Well I wouldn't like to sell out Classic Rock in aid of a new bar. Maybe we could do alternate meets in the 2 bars if thats agreeable???
Classic Rock 05-09-2003, 03:29 PM Fine by me, but Monica doesn't seem to have reappeared on the Forum since her appearance to advertise her bar. Tis up to you guys and gals where you want to meet and when.....I'm happy to accomodate again if you wish.
Belle 05-09-2003, 03:37 PM Nor me, as long as they stay open we should keep going there.
It was quiet (ie only just us there) so it was more private
CR could not have been more welcoming and warm
and I know the way!
x
cosywolf 05-09-2003, 04:51 PM Besides, I'm not happy that they erased the painted horses off the side of the building. What was the point of such blatant vandalism?? That's just one more quirky bit of Sheffield that's bit the dust. Bad people.
So a vote against Monica's even tho it's definitely closer to where I live...
mikey 05-09-2003, 05:00 PM still think that place is legally obliged to house any wild horses found in the area, thats why the stables have to be kept there.

halevan 06-09-2003, 09:23 AM I would like to go to the next event, but I want to know first whether it is non smoking, as I cannot breath where there is tobacco smoke. It would kill me if I had to gobble all that cancerous filth, so you see if smoking is allowed then I cannot go.
