This comes around quick

[Cotty]

I was just looking at the Dirty Dicks thread and somone mentioned it would be a quiet one as they were saving themselves for BT&P. I thought thats ages off yet, then looked at the calender a week and a half.

Might have to clean the car and fill up with petrol. Dam is my DJ clean, where is my tie, is my shirt clean, what cufflinks etc

Sod it after 1/2 hour, who is going to care.

Was just talking about this last night. Im ready for btap just need to get the car ready but can do that next week.

Im starting to get really excited about going this year.

[Penny-lope]

I am not even nearly ready (although at least I have located a suitcase)

[ali_kat]

Another practise session tomorrow then the main event!

It is going to be very messy this year

[LordGrover]

Getting ready? What is this 'getting ready' of which you speak?
I was thinking of just rolling up and starting...

When you have a circa 750 mile round trip you need to make sure you have everything you need. Its not just a quick jaunt home.

I guess I should start to do something then

Right, pass the Yellow Pages I've got some work to do.....OK, B for band hire.

Daft question (and i know it is already sorted for this year), but has it ever been suggested employing the services of our erstwhile moderator /gay icon/ drummer boy and his band of merry men to provide the musical entertainment for the evening? They are rather good by all accounts. Just a thought

[TonyHetherington]

Paul has very kindly offered actually - however I suggested I don't think we'd be right for the event. I don't think it's what people want at such a do. We'd/I would have loved to have done it, but people would be watching us playing our set and not knowing the songs, rather than dancing to Abba or RadioHead

But thanks for thinking of us

[Garlick]

No rockaoke, no booking.

[ali_kat]

I think Tony's band would be a great support act for Stu's band

God, good point. Last time I saw my dress shirt it was heavily stained with red wine and crumpled in the bottom of the laundry basket. I'll have to give it a wash and if the stains don't come out then buy a new one (like I seem to most years).

BTW, don't forget ear plugs!

same as every year then

I seem to vaguely remember that 2003 was a vintage year... the one where Psychobert went missing and we nearly set fire to PWIG's car... didn't someone fall asleep in their soup too!

Good point, I'll bring some for Penny and some for me incase her's fall out

[JonRB]

Well, the good news is that the wine stains seem to have come out of my dress shirt. The bad news is that this means I'm going to have to iron it.

Just do the front and keep your jacket on
