Suppose I'ld better spill!

 

Forget the pennies, it was 20 quid.

 

The fleece and basic logo was £11.75... The back livery was an extra £2.50..

The right breast logo was an extra £1.00... The elbows were an extra £1.00

each... I'm a big boy too! That fleece is size 2XL! :D

 

Again, havta say... Marc, there must be a fund raising opportunity here??

In all honesty... I would have paid £40.00 + delivery for it!

(Email me and I'll tell where I got it from..)

Bargain!!! i'd definitely order one

Does it come in red? :-D

The good people of CAG, I know not where to start.... I won't waffle about the meet itself, rather I have an overwhelming need to tell you about our hotel (Yet, suffice to say, Bookie's DD was a friggin' riot! love ya babes.... and DMD, YOU are a legend sir...what a great guy)

 

Anyway...the horror story *brace positions*!

 

You should be aware from the outset, you couldn't make it up! Not even if you gave it your best shot...what a total craphouse, no, that's far too kind, Thai. Words fail me, I was in shock for the first few hours....Jan and SSL held it together...but I was pooing me kecks....

 

We then met the rest of the clan...all in nightwear (3PM)

 

You would believe it is not possible to run such an operation, legally, but yet it really did happen!! *pinches self*!

 

So, we arrive at said dump knowing it was bargain basement divefest, what's the problem?, were only going to kip, right?......

 

Ding dong on the doorbell and we anticipate poor service, we paid jack sh*t, so expected jack sh*t...what we didn't expect was some total meff in his PJ's who fell twice up the stairs on showing us to our room. He was on crack or glue, or weed..... after navigating through the unhoovered crack den, he showed us to our room (and you should be aware I had to negotiate for this room!) :rolleyes:

 

Ok, so, we think on first impressions 'well, we knew it would be sh*t'. We put our bags down and start to take it in...... Jesus wept. The friggin' door had been kicked in so much that a new lock was required (as had every other room), but the crack whores couldn't be arsed fittin it properly! I turned to Jan and said 'this screw doesn't look very secure, I could probably remove it manually' I touched the screw and out it came!( I do not exagerate). Fuelled with security worries I tested the door....well, a fart would of opened it from the outside, I poo you not.....just wait for the pictures!.

 

We then, not really being picky, took stock of the room..... Jesus wept...AGAIN! What a dump.

 

You know what guys, I'm soo tired so I'm going to cut this review short...I still don't know where to begin, but the pictures will speak for themselves!

 

I think it will be a couple of days because of this 'n' that, but you NEED to see 'em!!! (Bookie, I think you have some....go ahead PLEASE!)

 

:grin:

Thai ..you missed the bit about the kid on the bike and his warning to us :eek:

 

BELIVE ME you all need to see the pics to believe JUST how bad it really was LMAO .. oh why am I laughing lol

we stayed in a hotel that was run by smack heads n getting watched by the poilce at one point :eek:

 

It was really lovely to meet GM , DMD , OD and BO for the first time and please accept my appologies for not staying the night .. as anyone will tell you from the other meets I am NEVER that quiet but I was just shattered , SORRY :(

 

GM & BO such lovely, genuine people :)

 

DMD OMG what a sweetie you are

 

OD so so glad that such a newbie to CAG felt welcomed enough on CAG to come to a meet

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lots of pictures, but have to make sure they're OK to post first...

 

 

grrrrrrrrr Dave after my dissapearing act I now have to look bad once again BUT can I just remind you that it was agreed that you could take pictures but they could not be posted or given out to anyone who wasn't there

Phew, I’m pooped – only got home about an hour ago :rolleyes:

 

I witnessed the “Thai Palace” from the outside at 3am this morning and that was bad enough :eek:

 

It was so nice to put faces to usernames last night. Janet, DMD, Bookie (and DD xx), GM , OD and the usual suspects, SSL & Thai :)

 

Sorry GM and I were late but I blame it all on Mr Bo, he gave Lionel the night off so we ended up with dippy Lily :D

 

Pity you went early Dave, you could have had exclusive rights over the pics of me pole dancing :lol:

 

On my six hour drive home this afternoon :rolleyes:, I could hear this constant jangling in the back of the car and just thought it was something in the boot. As I took my gear out tonight, I discovered the culprit – reindeer antlers with bells on. I wonder how they got there????

 

I am still creased up over seeing the layout in one of the ladies toilets in that last pub – it had to be seen to be believed :eek:

 

All in all, a great meet in a fab City with excellent company :)

 

Bookie, can you pencil me in for next year?? :p

 

PS - Thanks for the rep whoever you are - but I'm Bo not Dave :rolleyes:

So sounds like a good night then.

Maybe accomodation not up to much but I bet you suspected that from the start.

Its still a quid cheaper than sleeping in J2Bs back garden.

Bet that guy has now got enough to buy a new door in the MFI Bankrupt sale.

 

Brings a new meaning tho to the expression "He must have a screw loose"

 

:rolleyes:

How much does J2B charge? :D

 

And yes, we knew it was poor, but nothing like the reality...it was proper cack, Martin.....****e! we need those photo's!

 

..Bookie's lurking...fingers crossed!

 

His last price list was £14.99 -but thats for a normal pitch.

£16.99 if you want to pitch next to the fountain (He has a prepayment meter on the tap)

and DMD, YOU are a legend sir...what a great guy)

 

Why, thank you Thai... I was just being myself!

 

DMD OMG what a sweetie you are

 

Again, thank you... As you prolly realise now, I'm actually quite shy

and reserved despite the bravado I put up here!! :rolleyes:

But what you saw was the real me.

 

grrrrrrrrr Dave after my dissapearing act I now have to look bad once again BUT can I just remind you that it was agreed that

you could take pictures but they could not be posted or given out to

anyone who wasn't there

 

I did realise that we made an agreement, but I was so full of the vodka

that I had hidden in the big pockets of "that" fleece that I wasn't quite

sure!! But I knew 1 of you would put me right before I did anything!

There's only about 12 "people" pictures, I'll upload them to somewhere

secure and then let those who were there have the link details..

 

Pity you went early Dave, you could have had exclusive rights over the pics of me pole dancing :lol:

 

Well.... You all know why I had to go early. It was a good call AFAIC

because the reason why I had to leave called me 5 minutes after I left

fretting as to where I was and how long I'ld be...

 

Pole dancing you say...?? :lol:

 

On the whole I really enjoyed myself, it's not often that I've been able

to get out that much recently which made it all the more worthwhile,

and has already been said, nice to put faces to user-names. And I

can't remember the last time I sneaked a bottle of vodka into a pub!

 

I've had lots of comments about the fleece that I had made too!

Someone actually patted me on the elbow yesterday in the new

indoor market and said "keep up the good work Dave..." ???!

 

The fleece.....

Managed to pleasantly.surprise people when I arrived because I had not said I was coming. I only decided 4am Saturday that I would drive five hours to Manchester and Travelodge in Didsbury accepted my booking. Very moving experience to meet such genuine and nice people and to not feel alone in my plight against DCA's. Wish I had the stamina and stickability for a full night out, into the early morning hours but I am not as young as I used to be. Am looking forward to next meet and will try to travel the day before, next time, so I am well rested to go the full bit. Many thanks to all.
