Bad news!

Hetan's mother has taken a nasty fall and will be recuperating at our house for 6-8 weeks (nobody is more upset about this than me, I hasten to point out). As a result, we have decided to postpone the BBQ until the weekend of August 17 & 18. Sorry about this folks but maybe some of the people who couldn't make the original date can make this one. Anyway, please advise as to your availability for this new date. Thanks

Question 1 : Do you accept old french fart? Or is it red coat only (Good Save the Queen, Honni soit qui mal y pense, etc etc)?

Q2 : Did UK in general, and London in particular, is observing EU laws with regards to enter in your sunny country? It would be a shame to come from Phuket and be denied enter at Heathrow (or whatever airport)?

I may (or may not) have my master degree examination to pass around that date (Date not fixed, as I do not follow normal cursus), so might be fun to meet people who share same interrest for the Mezla!

SAd thing, I will know my exam date only end of Jully, so I will be unsure about your party untill the last moment.

You will never hear the words "I accept old french fart" come out of my mouth BUT you sound like fun so you're invited, anytime. Don't bring anything that could get me arrested, please and thank you.

I have no fucking idea about any of that - you're going to have to sort that out for yourself, unless you can demonstrate a Malazan-relevant skill/talent that impresses me, in which case I will try to help you

study instead. Coming here has zero chance of improving your exam score. Don't be stupid.

Yeah, it was silly of you, but I bet you had a good time typing it and I appreciate that. Don't be embarrassed. PM me, we'll do lunch in a neutral country and take it from there :thumbsup:

Now that that is over with, Morgoth is here for the BBQ and we have had an excellent evening. Pictures to come. The weather is going to be ridiculously good tomorrow, the cricket is in a strangely good state and I wish you were here.

I hope Morgy brought his drinking trousers and meat consuming suspenders.

I survived the Permian and all I got was this t-shirt.

Keep your fingers crossed that our house completion date doesn't get pushed back a week - I don't think I can move into my first house and survive The BBQ Event of the Year in a single weekend!

Are you coming over again for the second one or is that a bit too much on the cost of plane tickets and time off work?

I won't be able to, alas. Hopefully I'll get to go to the winter meet up though.

My house moving date is now fixed for the weekend before the BBQ so I'm good. I'll be coming on the train from Hitchin. Not sure what time yet as I have no idea what kind of house stuff I might have to do in the morning but it shouldn't be too late and I will only be 30mins away. Hoping for good weather!

Congratulations Mez! It's huge having your own place, doing what you want with it and hang the critics

And thanks for coming in those circumstances! - if it were me I'd be hard-pressed to stop planning my new garden.

So...I finally got the small, intimate BBQ with people of quality that I've always wanted
