It's been mentioned before that we should do PH drinks, so here's the thread...

Is there any interest still? I'd suggest a Friday or Saturday evening so that those of us who can't cope with work with a hangover don't need to, those of us that work away during the week can make it and those that don't live in Zurich at least have a night train option.

Sorry to the non-Zurich people, but I think that's where the biggest group of us live (or thereabouts) and it's also open past 10pm.

My diary is pretty full at the moment, but I could do either Friday 28th Jan, Friday 18th Feb or Saturday 19th March.

Happy to do trendy, ex-paty, sleazy, up-market etc and maybe go for food first. Whatever the consensus is.

So in traditional PH style lets start a list. Just copy the list from the post above and add your name and the date you would prefer.

EBB, thanks for picking this up - I was lazy enough to suggest but never get further with it.

Might be able to do 28th Jan. I assume it's ok to bring a non-PH designated driver (aka the missus).

See this is what happens when you live in the arse end of nowhere to save a couple of hundred chuffs on taxes.

Is Andrew not free for that role wink

I hadn't really considered the prospect of the fairer sex turning up, but don't have anything against it. Not willing to promise to be on my best behaviour though.

It's looking like the January date is marginally more popular, so we'll go for that. If it isn't a complete disaster, there's nothing to stop us having a re-run in March for those who couldn't make it first time round.

I imagine Gilly would be interested as well.

I didn't know Andrew was gracing us with his presence. In which case, I'd better invite my OH too.

Hmm, better not take you to the bar with ensuite brothel, that I had planned for some point in the evening then wink

If there are ladies going to be present, shall we grab a bite to eat first?

Good point, well made. Not sure if he is coming. I think he may be at a track day in Spain.

He seemed more concerned about his new arrival when I spoke to him on FB.

Less of it. I can't be an IT geek - I'm typing this on a Mac.

I was referring to the inbound doglet.

I can now do Friday!

A suggestion...

We could meet up for a meal first and then go off to the big Glocal Party at Hard One afterwards.

Or is this not still on?

I'm still up for it, although suggesting going to Hard One may scare anti-swinging Marcus away!

Food sounds good. Anyone have any cuisine preferences or dislikes?

So is it this Friday?

(How long will it take me before I get used to European keyboards?)
