I thought that red eye effect was caused by the tequila.

Also, hey, you finally got to eat a burrito mancroft! Yay! ...Although it was probably some bizarre attempt at a burrito, but still. ;)

I am led to believe that the food there is authentic.

Did not much care for guacamole, though.

Again, why done by 8? I'm somewhat disappointed in you fellows. ;)

:dont: say things like that, toots.

We started at three. Five hours continuous socializing is the most I'd done for ages.

And it was quality time.

I actually remained till 10, after the other two departed. Hung around the bar, chatting to this Romanian bar tender, secured a Corona on the house and had a couple more shots (total by night's end: 6). An American girl working there enquired if it was a 'rough evening', nah I just like to get rat arsed. The greatest feat was managing to travel all the way back to Maidstone without killing myself.

Ashi, K?

Do all meetups involve this amount of alcohol?

It is not compulsory.

You had two frigging months warning.

Don't know when the next one will be. Can two organizational miracles concatenate?

A pint in the Fat Cat sounds good. I'll start saving today.

The SF Bay meetup involved 5 pints of draft beer, 6 bottles of sake, 1.5 liters of vodka, 750 Ml of tequila, I don't know how many bottles of beer, and it would have involved some absinthe, but the liquor store was sold out.

I wouldn't be certain that it was well represented, though.
I went to some sort of expensive American Themed bar and Restaurant in Crawley last year and it was kinda sad, I went to the Harvester across the way for the rest of the week, (kinda like saying I opted for Applebees).
Some places think that hotdogs, burgers, shakes and some old license plates hung up on the wall qualifies as a full theme.

I'm pretty sure that Burrito looked more like an Enchilada :)

Only 3 people? Good Lord that would be awkward. :unsure: Alcohol so requisite it's almost tax deductible. Definitely needed an ENFP or 3-4 more INTPs. Sounds like it went fairly well considering. Well done lads.

What time did you lot get there?

I was in that place from 2:50 to about about 3:45 but I got a bit bored, so I looked around the national gallery. I had a quick look again some time around 4:30, while checking what the football scores were, I did not recognise anyone.

So yeah I am probably just a bit dumb.:P

Is this because of the "facilitation of social event" reason again?

You make it sound like we actually consumed all that during the course of the event. In fact, we just met up at a damn liquor store and thought "What the fuck, we're here -- might as well stock up." In truth, only four or five glasses of beer were had.

Oh, and add a case of beer to the above list. Never mind, Oso covered that already.

I think when a meet-up occurs without any tits, the attendance level is low.

Really though, three people, one of whom is a double digit n00b (good effort), that's pretty piss poor.

I'm currently completely sober, and I hate that programme.

I am often drunk when on here, though.
