It might even be fun. Not being sexist but women tend to liven up a party and can steer the conversation away from the ineevitable "i've got a bigger computer/w**** than you type talk."
The best bit if we can get a lot of people to attend is finding out that you already know half the people there from previous contracts. I am fining I come accross the same people all the time in investment banking.
Yeah I reckon I'll know a couple - the guy who introduced me to this website for one....I still dont know who he is! Mike from WCC, are you out there anywhere?
We are defiately up for it now - I'm going to get in touh with the hotel today and extend or little jolly by a day.
So you lot beter get a half day booked, cause me and Dave will be in the pub from 12 onwards!

Sitting??
I thought we were planning a night out on the booze, everybody knows it is par for the course to be standing all night when on the razz!!!
Sitting is for dinner functions which I don't belive we would manage to arrange as we would then have to put deposits down. The best way is probably going to be arrange a venue to meet at and a time frame for the meet and then after that time frame expires we can wander off on a big pub crawl led by somebody who knows the area

Obviously it was never going to last but I will look back fondly on that year for the rest of my days

A social has been tried (and failed) a few times. I for one would be delighted if it happened.
It seems like there is more serious interest this time, so add that to a bit of Christmas spirit and we may actually get somewhere this time...

Its at this point that I do the Screaming Orgasm gag - right?Originally posted by MordacMay I then be the first to treat you to a long slow comfortable screw?
Failing that, sex on the beach normally does the trick.

If it happens, everyone's invited. Except Chico. There's no sense in spoiling a (potentially) good night before it's started, is there?

I'll be there, with a huge IR35 friendly smile. An evening of intense face-to-face discussion on how to operate as a real business is right up my ally as a fun night out.
