Overtime hours = double time for half the work. Huzzah!
So: judging from the other thread, there appears to be substantial interest in the day at the park. I therefore take this opportunity to set things in motion.
a) The park is the consensus, aye?
b) July is too far away whilst May doesn't carry as high chances for decent weather. Which leaves June. It'll have to be a weekend (given how we mostly appear to have passionate ties to our respective workplaces during the week), so name any dates you are NOT free, and any which are preferable for you.
c) are BBQs (BBWs??) permitted in the park? I know boozing isn't, but it's easier to hide whisky up your t-shirt than burning coals, should Land Services be driving around.
d) If you own a diabolo, please refrain from bringing it with you. Public gymnastic displays also not appreciated.
e) what can be the backup plan for if it's not a nice day?
the answer to this
is yes_'s mum's cafe
ROAD TRIP TO YOKER!
yaaaaas
Next to the shipyards.
Luxury. Luxury.
Will you be coming to the park,
or are you only going to join in the socialising if we end up in the cafe?
dunno!
I'm at primavera from 29th may - 5th, and even then the internet is scary.
you've foiled my plan of mass slaughtering,
Leatherface styleee
I'd love to come.
But I leave the fair city on the 1st.
Boo hiss.
End of May, if the dates suit all?
i reckon i could be free for any weekend
so i probably won't mind which date we settle on.
^ god, that sounds really sad
we're laughing WITH you
^ blatantly looking for some kinky manlove.
shut yer cake hole
cake hole will not be the dessert
is that a euphamism for something else?
'cause if not, i'm heartbroken

speak up!
(^worst bump ever)
Ah fuck, I can't believe you bumped this.
In fact, I will sign my attendence IF it is on a Saturday afternoon NOT on the last weekend of may. I go to Turkey for a week for a holiday from DiS that weekend.
In other news, a BBW would be good.
(Se Alistair, I do reply! RAR.)
the details have been noted.
how long are you away for?
Week.
Thursday to Thursday. Can't fucking wait man.
the most exotic i get is Skye for 4 days
.
I shall get sorting when more people give their requirements. I know zabakdaz isn't on social forum much these days so i'll just drop her a message / text as she said she was interested.
Some of the later DiSer will need to be informed.
I shall bump this like it is my elbows in a Ford Ka.
i miss my Ford Ka =(
Ha! My mate hate one and he hated it.
I have a severe dislike for them as I had a really bad hangover in one once and it always reminds of it now...
the best thing is seeing a 'modified one'.
It's like: mate, your KA will NEVER be the Bat-mobile; just admit defeat, you shamefully embarrassing cretin
Ha, i would love to see a Ka with a big jet flame.
this road sure is bumpy today
Bump did you say?
:D what happened to all the folk
who said in the other thread they wanted to join in?
I'll scour that thread at home and PM them all to oblivion.
that sounds like an Austin Powers-esque way
of killing someone
Weekends I can't make it...
25th May and 28th/29th June.
(This sounds so self important, ha ha.)
My suggestion for a back up plan - the pub.
both those are already off anyway,
so that's all good.
You're onhe guest list
Woo.
As long as I know a wee bit in advance, I should be able to get the day off work.
hopefully everyone
can give dates by the end of next week and something can be arranged.
Coupla minutes notice?
Days preferably.
Although, I have convinced someone else to do my shift for me five minutes before I was due to start before.
...
Er, I assume KG park? Good, right next to my flat. I might even turn up.
People seem to BBQ and it's not as tight on alcohol as the Botanics.
If you need a back up plan you should all come to my debut club night at Sleazys, yeah!
^ I told you I would, just let me know.
:)
i live beside there too.
Perhaps you're my flatmate? Or one of my God-awful neighbours? All will be revealed...
My flatmates are all girls!
And I'm an excellent neighbour!
then i render both my options redundant.
It'd be hilarious
if you actually were flatmates and hadn't realised.
my being male makes this impossible,
but it would've been a surprise. Cilla Black might even have popped out from behind the bushes...
That would be exciting.
I'd love a cameo from a scouser.
would you? would you *really*??
Technicalities, PAH.
seeing as my dad lives right near kelvingrove park
and i'm basically going to be doing nothing from june onwards, i may or may not decide to come to this.
of course, i won't actually tell any of you i'm coming and will instead turn up and watch you all from a distance, creepily.
Through a scope of a rifle?
don't be silly, i don't know how to shoot a rifle
bow and arrow, obvs.
I might do this.
Then someone will see me and ask what I'm doing spying on them.
Yeah.
Probably the pigs, bastards.
Ach.
I won't be there.
Nevermind.
Get these mother fucing bumps
of my mother fucking bump!
my bumps, my bumps, my bumps
my rough and manly bumps.
check it out
I could possibly come
if it were a thursday, friday or saturday?
i think it's gonna go down on a saturday
mebbez
this is true. ^
the man speaks facts, and facts alone
I was informed of this last night
From me old mucker Zabakdaz lol.
Eh, i don't know. I'm disturbingly shy and anti-social, so i might not :S
Oh by the way, Medulla, cheers for passing on that Goma ticket, if you ever fancy a guestie for a Dananananaykroyd show, just drop me a line :)
och!! you're going :P
nae problem at all.
And aye, what Annie says ^
i would go to this
but i'm not enough of a DiSaster yet, and i am away from the 29th of May to the 20th of June. It's a shame, since i'm amazing at BBQs.
There is a good chance
i would just try and sleep with one of you
i don't think anyone would be complaining about that
(just make sure you bring along lots of pictures of bears with which to seduce us)
dinner?
Yeah
.
How much?
......?
Cost?
Courses?
Sex?
<3
the evening answers lack clarity.
But ok: to accommodate the majority it's looking like
a Saturday
not last in June
not last in May
if BBQ fails we'll get drunk in the pub
craigfoley2000 will sleep with someone
Sounds good to me
...
on paper (screen) it sounds good,
but i'm waiting for everyone to cancel and 3 of us to be clutching out cans of Super Tennents in the park, rocking back and forth with knees at our chest and desperately trying to think of things to say to prevent the WHOLLY AWKWARD SITUATION.
Or it could go pretty well, eh...
It will be awkward anyway
We could all bring keyboards and type on them, and speak in robotic voices....Might work
cynic!
Ok then
IT WILL WORK
Yeah.
I am sure people will come. Just keep bumping this all the time till the actual event.
i lose track, who else is there? We've had replies from:
you

I said yesterday i would go through the other thread
but I didn't. I watched Southland Tales and ate cookies instead, but one day I will!
Either that or just trawl through the "Glasgow" location on the user profiles?
cookies are a good choice, but the ever-impeding question:
what type were they?
Chocolate Chip and Fudge
made by me. They turned out better than I hoped. I spend more on food than I do on Booze, I am no longer a student.
this has prompted me to make
Skippy peanut butter cookies once i get back from Finch tonight
can i come?
:/
oooh, i dunno about that.
I'll add you to the list:
any dates do/don't suit? any diseases we should know of so we can be immunised at our soonest convenience?
i have progeria
