PTH, :-) they dont mug anymore, they just clone your creditcard while your asleep:-)

Great to see everyone :)

I can't believe you left out Spacie and Iain, Ruthie - talk about tackle.
So glad you liked your Christmas message, gorgeous.
Quite threw me for a couple of seconds when the lovely Sam spoke - I kept thinking you said that without moving your lips, Gausie.
And I reckon Martini should bring a nurse next time.

Cheers everyone :)

Thank god I stayed on the water all night otherwise I would be blaming my sorehead on wine and beer!

Great to meet everyone again, good company ( well with a few exceptions but thats enough about Steph), plenty of food and wine, and great banter!

Thanks all


Mike

Forgot to say ... watching Steff explode was an absolute treat :)

Pictures/evidence please!

Excellent night out. Sorry girls I was limp I will try harder next time!

Couple of pics

Sue,:-) its very rare i have a drink, im crazy enough sober:-)
What is Ian showing Choccie on his phone thats making her giggle,? :-)
look at all those empty glasses, think that was stage set:-)
Bully great view, impressed,:-)

So where are all the pics eh ?

Why has it been so quiet after the event - was this like the other recent Manchester party with subsequent rape allegations etc ?

Or was the Northern hospitality not so good ?

at least Ian is taking a pic above the table and not from beneath it!

cynic,do you fancy strawberry nosed ladies?
