    How did you go on on Saturday with the Gym girl?
    It was The Clock Tower... have to say, you were close

    It was also a Japanese restaurant and bar for a short while, didn't seem to do very well though. Possibly as a result from taking over the site from The Clock Tower, which was a sink pub for the local scally population

    He speaks very highly of you - I think, I'd know for sure if he wasn't on my ignore list...

    BTW, had a very enjoyable evening. Thanks to all!

    My tummy is nearly back to normal now.

    We have never met Gonzo. Maybe next time I am down in your neck of the woods

    I have three bits of good news,
    first, I didnt have to sleep in the car last night, the missus let me in
    second , she, the missus, has agreed to get involved with CUK and want to chat to CM about planning road-trip type holidays
    third, I met two really nice guys last night, RichardCranium and Wilmslow

    a cracking night

    For the record, I have now visited approximately 50% of the posts that admin has made since his/her/its first post on 6th July 2005 at 14:43 and have yet to find any definitive indication as to which of the possessive pronouns I should be using (although this post in "Currently Listening To..." is the funniest so far ).

    I will continue to use all three, randomised to avoid giving precedence to any one, until I either find a post that clearly establishes which is correct, or admin expresses its/her/his preference.

    Of course, this assumes that the use of "we" in so many admin posts is merely the Royal "we" - if there is in fact a colony, or "hive mind", things become even more complex

    You'd be surprised

    However, the EO we've met at the London events is indeed EO, rather than EO
