All settled and well at the Inn :D
sky: overcast, low ceiling but not much rain.
Am about to go out for some recon ;)
bring it on.

Well, that's frustrating. I'm afraid I'm going to have to make a last-minute bail :( Sorry, chaps. Have some curry for me :(
thefonz on 5/6/2009 at 21:54
Yeah sadly me too. Work has reared its ugly head and I'll be spending my weekend in the office. :(
I will try and smuggle a beer to my desk though and think of you chaps out there having fun.

Well, I'm back home now, and have just finished dinner. Met up with David, N'Al and raph. Sorry the rest of you couldn't make it. Was great, with conversation topics including videogames, tech, sports (!?!), six foot ceramic and wooden house-decorative penises, pornographic ripoffs of Pirates of the Carribean, etc., all in the pleasant saturation of delightful alcohol - i.e. a productive day. N'Al and I have discovered that we both live in the same town and that we very much agree on it being an utter shithole. I very much think that Milton Keynes would pass for a very nice town on its own, but with this background, it was God damned Disneyland.
Raph has the photos, but I did manage to sneak my secret camera to some bystander to snap a pic of us when the others weren't looking. Posting below.
TTLG UK 2009 - Milton KeynesInline Image:
http://zonaria.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/manowar1.jpgThanks for an awesome day guys, it was great meeting and I had a lot of fun! Provided I haven't convinced everyone beyond any doubt that all students are indeed complete asshats, I look forward to seeing you lot again, and maybe meeting those who couldn't make it today as well.
P.S. Why is it so hard for town halls to put some toilets around public spaces? 'Cause, you know, the mall shuts everything at 8 apparently. I had to piss in the fucking bushes. :(

Doing what they do best.

Just look at raph 'leaning into the wind' like a pro
rachel on 8/6/2009 at 15:49
That pro position barely got us past the first phase of the first level, I think Dave and I got killed in the space of something like five seconds of each other at the end :p
Good fun that was. I'll post the pics I have tomorrow. :)

So I arrived and pretty much settled comfortably in a penthouse suite.

After meeting with David, N'Al and Ostriig, we went in search of a suitable pub to start the festivities.
We found it.

Insert discussions about Terminator suckitude, videogames, sports, and other varied subjects such as reverse bungee jumping.
After a nice meal and plenty of beer, we left the premises and went in search of the next suitable dwelling for our drunken antics. We weren't quite drunk yet, mind you, but a man's got to plan ahead.
We found it.

We then left that one, and walked towards the busiest downtown district I've ever visited. Milton Keynes is a crazy place.

http://stuff.freylia.net/MK2K9/P1030960.JPGI'm blind. No idea what they think they saw. Flying pink elephants I think. What am I doing here?
We then went for some much deserved HOT CURRY GOODNESS. And man that was yummy.

We discussed wildly about the fun of flipping cars over and running over people, aloud, without considering for an instant that other respectable people who do not know about GTA4 might think we were complete lunatics.
And we like it that way.
Finally David left and N'Al and I went to one last bar where I proceeded to pour my Mai Tai on the floor just a some random guy was passing by, and then stepped on his shoes, literally, when I went to the bar a few minutes later to pick some paper towels to clean the mess.
Dood Yo're fockin clomsy!Yeah I know.
Cue cartoon face when I realized it was the same guy. Fuuuuuuck.
Next day was cool and calm, watching the race, going to the Mall/Xscape, and basically just doing nothing. Oh except killing bad guys in
Rambo III: the game and climbing.
