*Official* CW English Meet-Up

[Barney Rubble]

No need for comments like that I would have thought. Especially around something like a CW Meetup.



On a side note, nice to see you back mate. Would be good to catch up on MSN when you have the time.

It would indeed, hello again mate.

However, the only computers here I have net access on don't have MSN, so it'll have to be when I'm back in England from the 19th to the 5th. Curse the pupils who got MSN banned at school.

 

[Anna]

How about e-messenger? Does that work?

 

[Richard]

I'd say it's highly unlikely. I may well be in the country, but the likelihood of me being able to afford a train ticket to Birmingham given that my English account is well into the red is very slim. Besides, I've got a limited amount of time to catch up with my Uni friends, so I kinda don't wanna go anywhere anyway to be honest.

Haha, didn't think I'd be able to persuade you TBH, you've been a busy man for a fair while now.

Well if you think so boss, but all I was saying was that she's not been very pleasant to me (which is not really up for dispute, she's said far worse than that - this for instance - most of which hasn't even received censure) so hence I don't bother reading many of her posts. Nothing too bad about that I thought.

Use Google Talk mate, gets through firewalls and is much better than MSN anyway

 

[Turbinator]

Really? I thought it was pretty lame. I'd say more, but I'm worried Richard will threaten more bodily harm on me.

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Birmingham is far too distant for a glorified net session. Or exactly that.

That smacks of the behaviour of a 5yr old to be perfectly honest.

There is no need to get nasty. I admit, I have gone a bit OTT in the past but it's only because you're such a pedant!!

 

[Richard]

How is it 5-year-old behaviour? (Or nasty - on my part - for that matter) There's more than 1 other person whose posts I don't bother reading that much of, too. No-one's going to read every single post on the forum, even me.

How about if you only had to organise part of the trip? Could give you a lift some of the way without too much difficulty.

 

[Jamee999]

Rich (and Anna), when James (or any mod) tells you that a discussion of some sort shouldn't be happening, that is not secret code for "Insult each other".

 

[Richard]

I'm not insulting her though. Merely saying I don't particularly want to read her posts. If that counts as insulting someone then anyone who banged-on about ignore-lists non-stop (ahem... naming no names) would have received official warnings many times.

 

[Barney Rubble]

How about e-messenger? Does that work?

Nah, all web-based AIM stuff is blocked. Yet to try Google Talk though, James, will give it a try.

EDIT: RESULT! It works. New address is gingerninja9997 at gmail dot com.

2ND EDIT: James, is it possible to add contacts with hotmail addresses to Google Talk? Or for them to add you? 'Cause I know very few people who have gmail, and if I ask them to get it just to talk to me they'll all tell me where to go.

 

[Matteh]

Don't mind me, the person who could get a discount on a net

Reckon my membership card will do the same job, certainly did last time

Must try this Google Talk lark.

(H)

 

[Anna]

I'd like to apologise for my last few posts; I didn't really think much before I posted them & have now realised that it's all pretty stupid! Sorry to Richard & anyone else who had to read this - I'm not normally that cranky! (Damned groundwater recharge )

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Depends on where I'd have to get to. On the whole I'd be keen on a game of cricket with proper forum cricketers.

 

[Matteh]

Depending on the weather, you'd probably get that at the outside kids thing at Edgbaston.

 

[Richard]

FFS, Mitchell, online at 5AM? Not been to bed or up early to watch SL-Eng like me?

Yeah, if it's decent weather and has been for the last few days so the place isn't a mudbath, a game's surely more than doable.

Liam - if you were to get yourself to somewhere somewhere near the M5 I could make a small detour.

 

[Matteh]

Not been to bed. Only left my mates at 3am after drinking and playing Halo.

 

[Craig]

Only? 3am for me and I'm almost falling asleep sometimes.
