    I'll be keeping an eye out for Galvasean's Rhino,

    Like I said, there is a chance I may be late. if so I shall stand on the bar, holding the rhino aloft, yelling, "Come forth my GODLESS BRETHREN!!!!!!!"
    and thus, the atheist and agnostic alike shall gather ferom the four corners of teh bar.
    Or some such.

    I've a contact no. for Robin, and if any of the attendees want mine in case we have trouble locating our 'own kind' later - PM me. A emergency location text might prove handy. :)

    All aboard!

    Well that was a laugh I must say! :D I owe Robindch, Dades and Galvasean some drinks! Zillah made a ninja stealth appearance...couldn't even see him! :P I didn't get to talk to a couple of people too much, but hey there's always next time!

    Can't believe how God Science awful I looked in that pic you took Monkeyfudge! (think it was my idea too wasn't it?) Hopefully that's one for your private collection only...:p

    I was there! Ok so I was a bit late, but I spent half an hour roaming around The Duke trying to spot anyone wearing blasphemous clothing or holding a dinosaur, but to no avail. Probably should have gone with Dades' emergency text idea, but I thought it would be so much easier.

    It's an odd experience looking at people at a table thinking "Could they be the internet people?" I don't know how the rest of you managed to work it out but I saw not one dinosaur, bus slogan T-Shirt or otherwise heretical sign. Luckily I was meeting other friends in town so I just went and joined them, so it wasn't a wasted journey or anything.

    Apparently I am the weakest link. Out of curiosity, where were you sitting? I was wearing a T-Shirt with a Devil picture with the caption "God's busy, can I help?" and assumed this would draw atheists to me...but apparently not.

    Oh well, sorry I missed you :/

    Just home now.

    Very good night.

    We will start a thread about and try and work out what an atheist podcast or radio show would entail.

    I've met Monkeyfudge before and all :( Didn't see you there. I suppose it'd be quite unlikely that there are two Dukes on Duke street.

    Ha. Aww.. too bad. I brought a sock monkey and all that was sitting on the rhinoceros back.

    It was a rhinoceros in the end.. plus my sock monkey when I arrived at around 10.

    We were in a sort of alcove seat towards the back before you reach the stairs. I knew Galvasean well.. so that's probably more how I spotted the group.

    Was watching out for you though... what time were did you get in at?

    Guys ... is this a case of atheists not being able to organise a piss up in a pub!!? Only one person (Dades presumably) would have to wear a distinctive garment ... e.g. funky colourful hat. Poor ould Zillah.

    I haven't been on boards this last week (turns out I use all my energy here, then can't study!) so I forgot about the beers! And the worst part is I actually was already on my way to the Duke, last week, before I realised it was yesterday and not 8 days ago! :rolleyes: I'm so clueless sometimes...

    Anyway, there should be another...bit rich coming from a flaker, but....

    It was open to reveal my Atheist Bus t-shirt!

    Also the rhino/monkey combo was on the table all night, so it's a bummer you didn't see us, Zillah. We were on the lookout for people wandering about staring at tables to see if their imaginary internet friends were at them...

    Not sure what time we went to Bruxelles but it was definitely endgame for me leaving there!

    Great gig. :) Damn you monkeyfudge remembering all that talk of an atheist podcast!

    I got there a little after nine, maybe 21:10 or so, Monkeyfudge wouldn't have been there yet. Oh well. I'm leaving the country in a few weeks so that was your only chance :P
