LONDON BOOZE?

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

Hi guys, I'm a new person here. Got none of the toys (sold them all for about 50p at a car boot years ago ... seemed kinda clever at the time :cry: ) but recently dug out the (near) complete set of UK comics from the 80's and that got the nostalgia going.

Live in Enfield, work in square mile so would be well up for a beer.

Matt

In fact it's one of the entry requirements. If you're not a comic-loving Brit, you need to sit an exam before they let you stay... :oops:
Grrr. Argh.

welcome matt. Im Joey and I run this place contrary to what the actual mods here think.

The american contingent of transfans is glad to have you aboard. Your room is upstairs, 4th door on the right. Help yourself to anything in the fridge. If footy isnt on tv youre pretty safe to watch what you want. Any bathroom problems, please report them to Impy (the messier the better). Hrmm that should cover everything.. Oh wait. Dont touch my stuff.


Dinner is at 6 be there...

I just got back from a lovely week's holiday completely incommunicado :D

Here's how it pans out for me -

I'm booked on the evening of Sept. 23rd for a house party (to which any and all Transfans are welcome) so we could do drinks on the afternoon and then back to mine for further madness.

Sept 30th I'ma be in central London although I'm out at a b3ta bash - you know the sort of thing, a bunch of geeky guys from a message board meet up and attempt to drink their livers out, though b3ta has a higher proportion of girls.

Any other evening I'm free though 29th October is looking kind of seriously filling up due to three Hallowe'en parties and the amount of time it takes me to put on my zombie make-up...having said that I've seen a complete Stormtrooper costume that is definitely tickling my fancy...

Anyway, Mrs V's pub is always open to Transfans and we'll be able to book tables and pre-order food (or just go to the Thai place across the road again) if we need somewhere friendly to meet up.
I would have waited a ******* eternity for this!!!!
