Hi all...

I don't have time to organise this event sadly :( would love to but sooo busy wahhh!:(

I have observed it's all come to a bit of a standstill atm though planning wise. I know some people are dissapointed that it's been voted to be in the south which prob hasn't helped.

Seems a shame to just leave it altogether....so this message is my motivation for the planning to begin whether it's for just London or for a more Northern celebration too...

Thats my speech.....

Go team go....any takers or volunteers!?!?!?!?

P.s if anyone is planning behind the scenes I apologise...am just going on the threads on here hehehe!!!!

I am taking an executive decision and saying that the Forum's birthday will be held on Saturday, 13th November and the venue will be the pub we went to last year, which I think served us very well. Can anyone remember what it was called?
 
Was that when you went to the british museum? think it was a branch of JD weatherspoons but dont know where, if anyone who actually attended and who did not have a hangover and can remember haha can tell us

It were Shakespeares Head in Kingsway! The Bierodrome over the road is good for Belgium beer, chips (with mayo) and mussels!
 
Good idea Northe, exactly the place I was going to suggest 😉

I don't see why another event can't be organised in brum or further north for people who can't make it down to london.
 
not sure I know where that pub is can you give clearer instructions please😛😉
 
So was it the british museam meet then ,? i ask again!
 
yes Steff it was, a big weatherspoons, called shakespeares head, are you going to be able to make this one at all? I'm not sure just yet I will have to put it in wife's diary and see how the week before goes.
