Beardy,
If you brings the raddle, I'll fetch one of those pretty young welsh sheep Sputnik lusts over.
We can sell tickets and retire on the video rights.

Speaking of Woolybacks, sadly Yours Truly will not be able to repeat October's visit due to hosting my cousin from The USA that week. Hope you all have a great night. But be careful of where you park and definitely do NOT follow Sputnik otherwise it will become a very expensive evening!!!

Sputnik,
My zimmer is fitted with special sheep clamps on the bottom rail - works fine unless your get one of those really frisky ones in which case you get the ride of your life.
I'll buy you one for Christmas but you'll have to find your own wooly girlfriend.

Iain, not sure yet I always leave these things to the last minute but I might get the old Afghan coat and tank top out.
Latex runner boy disco outfit sounds nice but I would look like a large football if I wore that ;-)
Shall we meet at the bar as we did last time?

There's a big chance, Iain that we'll be twins on the night (except my hair's longer than yours) :P
And Spacie - don't you even dare think of a smelly Afghan anything, especially if it's raining :S

Spacey me old mucker, lovely to hear from you and the rabbit is most definately a boy!
Iain, it is about time you showed your face or your arse or something at a NW night out, big Ron misses you desperately.
Markusantonius, you can bring your cousin wit you, we don't bite, well not too hard anyway and you should know better than to follow Sputters into anything, let alone a dark car park.

Kayak,Bully lol,
The Count ,no pics were taken during the night , but as per usualy those north westers were upto their usual antics,
can someone explain to me how we ended up with a carrier bag full of continental sausages of different sizes in a carrier bag?
and more importantly, did anyone else notice how mesmerised Choccie and Steph were when the german one was pulled out.?

Yep another great night had by all, especially with Bullie and Martini springing a visit on us.
A special thanks to Ruth for organising all the meals through 2006, "Your a star woman"
I felt sorry for Steph when she realised that the German sausage didn't have a compartment for four Duracell batteries :-))

I agree with Sputtie, for once :P
Thanks for organising the nights out, Ruthie. Just goes to show though, that people always make the effort to come along. By the way, it was the Polish sausage with the kink in it that made my eyes water :S
Oh and it's not just Ruthie who's looking fantastic :)
I'd just like to mention that I was quite taken with Iain's new look.

Letter just arrived from Manc. City Council...
"Dear Markusantonius......
May I apologise for the late response to this enqiry... After reading your articulately crafted letter, I can confirm that because the pay & display machine was 'Out of Order' on the night you arrived at this car park, we have cancelled your parking ticket and are sorry for the inconvenience we have caused you...".
