Dang it, that was supposed to be a nerd _costume_ – hence the taped glasses, pocket protector, and ham radio nametag. I think it might have succeeded a little _too_ well! :smack:

Thanks for the photos, **kittenblue**! Sorry I missed the Dec. 29 whatever-it-was; never heard or read about it beforehand. I’ve already emailed **BMalion** about it.

Yeah, sorry about that, It was in a thread about **An Gardai** visiting Cleveland, which seemed like a good excuse for a party.

I could have sworn you were in that thread.

Then again, I could have sworn I said 5:00 pm too.

Eastside, Westside… you know, eventually we’ll have to invade Akron to give **samclem** a break.

So, is this thing on or not? Hello!!!

Forgot–Brian has no internet at home.

Perhaps we’ll all get specifics tomorrow.

What Pub, when does it start, who’s coming?

Can’t tonight, unfortunately. Mebbe next month, or will this be a weekly thing for us? The pub certainly looks like a delightful place for such rabid Anglophiles as **BMalion** and me.
