mawds - best text Jo to let her know. I think she put her number up a few posts back.


done.

Which one's oporto? - haven't lived in Leeds since uni, but seem to think it's on the corn exchange side of the road, ie on the left if you're facing the railway bridge with your back to town...

Oh and Rich...

I might jump in on that as I'm not too far from FunkyNige. I'll text you when I'm sure, if thats ok. What time do you think you'll be in Moortown for?

could do with directions to oporto too.

is it the one next to music ground guitar shop ?

down right hand road next to corn exchange.

see you there if it is!

hi alex LTNS


Hi Mike

That's where I think it is as well, opposite the white minimalist one. I think Oporto's blue on the outside, or is next door to a blue one. (shows how long it is since I've been to Leeds)

Will Moortown be on the way?


It certainly can be.

give me a ring on zero - seven - nine - seven - three - one - seven - four - one - two - six to arrange.


Will phone in the morning, as a bit of a heads up I'm near the Atlantis Fish & Chip shop on the Harrogate Road

Will try and get to Oporto - tho according to the final details that came tonight about the works thing - it starts with drinks at the Park Plaza at 7/7:30 so will be having to leave before you guys arrive, unless anyone is going to be early...

so if you see a chap with hair down to his arse and a beard long enough to be mistaken for a member of ZZ top... say 'hi'

Great night as ever Jo.. Made it back in one piece, hopefully none of Gemini's colleagues were watchng..

I suspect everyone will currently be throwing some shapes around the floor; next time I'll definately join you for this bit too.. Might even get there in time to have more than one beer before the meal too..

Well 4:30 came 'round really quickly and the dancefloor certainly was littered with some interesting shapes. Thanks to all that came out, fancy doing it all again sometime soon?

Surprising, given the amount you were putting away.

I've just got in from shopping, my punishment for calling out my taxi at 2.

Yes, thanks for organising Jo.

I was up and fairly chipper at 08.30 for a breakfast meeting with a couple of the Ferrari guys, then home in time to wash the car and set off to the parents.

And now I get home to find that Top gear has been replaced by the bloody snooker!

You obviously weren't paying attention last week Al ;-)

Nice to meet y'all last night.

Very well organised Jo. The transition from restaurant to bar to bar (via a minibus sporting exactly the requisite number of seats)was seamless.

A hostess that can drive a TVR in heels, hit mojitos harder than Hemmingway, party till 4 and then get up to play tennis in the morning!

That's gotta be rarer than a reliable cerb.

Thank you very much.

Andy, thanks to you and your lady for giving my phone a lift home.

Merry Christmas everyone.

Seems a success

We too had a great night - only til 3am though - (light weights )

In my usual manner I have felt shite until now - age two days to get over what takes one night

We must coordinate next time - two do's far better than one!

Merry Xmas everyone

hi dudes and dudettes having just moved to sunny london town I felt it possibly overstretching it to get up to leeds and then back down via nottingham in 24 hours...plus [touristmode] house prices down here! deposits even for interim rents = mucho££££££![/touristmode]

having said that, when i'm sorted out here I shall attend the next pissup you have!

glad you all had a great time


ps: any plans for a run out between christmas & new year?
