This has lost momentum, have we peaked too early??

Hopefully we can get a bit more chat going once the venue is finally decided tomorrow.
For the voters: I will have the final decision in the event of a tie :pac:

I should be good to go. I went for the Palace bar or Mulligans. One worry would be that we may not get room in the Palace bar if that wins out.

It's a bit tight downstairs alright but they have an upstairs section they open at the weekend. If it wins out I'll give them a ring and see if they can reserve us a corner...

Just to throw a spanner in the works... what about a pub crawl? Encapsulate the named pubs people voted on - haven't been on a pub crawl in ages and it could be good fun...


Something like-

5pm Mulligans

6pm Sweetmans

7pm Long Hall

8pm to finish Palace Bar-

Just a thought as good be adopted to suit those wanting afternoon drinking and would keep things moving and lively! (drunken) We could even run between pubs lol

Wearing Christmas Jumpers??

From what i saw of you at the Bros Pearce quiz night, I am not sure you would make it to 3 or 4 different pubs :pac:

Edit, If we were doing that we should go to the 4 most popular in some kind of Straight line; so I'd suggest:
Start in Against the grain at 5pm- Long Hall @ 6pm; Mulligans at 7pm and the Palace at 8pm....

Just realised that's it decided.
Palace Bar for the Xmas beers at 8pm on the 7th (with optional pub crawl beforehand).

I'll just get a mod to ammend the thread title...

Never been there so looking forward to it. Not running the JB now. They're looking for volunteers and since I'm the worst person in the world for helping with these things, I've signed up to help. I can still drink beer after, right??

You can also drink beer the night before since you're not racing and it'll be cold standing around stewarding so you may as well bring a hip flask to sip on to keep you warm

Just when I thought I was out, I got sucked back in.

The more beer I drink, the less I run. And the less I run, the more beer I tend to drink.....this is a damn hard cycle to get out of;)

Can't commit to earlier start but will try my best. I might leave my taxi running outside the palace, run in and and throw blocky into it so he can get home before his bedtime!

Well blocky and quirky will be in bits, but the rest of us should be OK :pac:

No seriously, I was planning on heading back home after the race and just having 1 in each of the pubs (so will only have 3 on board by the time we hit the palace).

It'll probably be 8.30ish before we make it to the Palace so I'm assuming Blocky will be home in bed by then;)
I was going to ask some of the folks I run with on Tuesday mornings to join us but I'm afraid you lot will all be rat ar*ed by that stage and make a holy show of me;);)

I might only stay for one - it's my sister's wedding anniversary so I'm seizing the chance to mind my nephew (aka the nicest baby in the world) that night but I don't need to be home until 10.30-ish. I'll drop in from 8-10. It would be nice to meet people.

I'm expecting pconn062 to have a full-scale panic attack on the start line, and blockic to collapse with 25 metres to go, then have to go for a sleep for a couple of hours, so am considering taking a can or two with me in my gear bag til they get themselves together.
