Restart the Meet-ups? POLL

It's plain to see (CLICK HERE) that there's a lot of members going to the village this year. So, is it possible to restart the Meet-ups? EMG had a go late last year and he was so successful that he got pato and me together . . . . without bloodshed! If pato and I can get on togther then I think there'll be very little problems with any future meetings.

So, how about it. Would you like to see the Meet-ups restarted?

There's a new feature in this forum that Mr Wallis showed me where you can post invitations to "ALL EXCEPT name, name, name" :D

I can't believe steve and BW jumped in with their correction. I would have thought my :roll: would have made it clear that Groucho Marx was a wind-up. Gotcha! :P

Well...maybe if all of us that nobody would want to meet, met up....we could form an exclusive club, and the others would feel left out :lol:

WE have had several "meet-ups" arranged on here. Think it is a good idea and helps you understand the people posting. Look at pato - everyone that met him thinks that he is a good guy!!! :shock:

Yes , but that will probably not apply to me as my wit , humour and coments offend, oh the so many delicatly minded folk, they would not come within a yard of my company, just the select few :D :D :D
Pato is a dear and a softy as we have gathered over time, but with me, well one never knows, least of all poor hubby :P
(Have had to let him out of the wardrobe to earn some money and close the farm down. Once sorted he will regailed to his rightful place- the wardrobe) :D

I think it's a good idea - I went to one at Rascals with baggy and sallyjane and several others and would go again. I'm in a phase of short visits to sort things out and appreciate a break from the stresses of selecting fittings and fixtures, so wit and humour appreciated.
