Seeing as the lovely **Coldfire** and gorgeous **Heliose** were visiting London, we decided to have a mini LonDope. It was good. šŸ™‚ Got to Ye Old Cheshire Cheese - a nice, dark pub, about 7ish, and was promptly bought a drink by **garius**. The evening went downhill from there. I finally met **Gyrate, Crusoe, Pingalondon, Herge, Blibliovore, and Paulbeserker**. Much alcohol was consumed. **Tir** turned up, late, but wasnā€™t distracted from the drinking by anything, not even food. I donā€™t think we had to point out her beer even once. **Ianzin** attempted to do some magic tricks for us, but he didnā€™t have any playing cards, or KABOOM! paper, so we got the disappearing pen trick instead, which was fun. He showed us pictures of a Komodo Dragon as well. I think Iā€™ve got the highlights, but as I have a meeting to go to now, so this post is going to be terminated right now, so I can get my papers togetherā€¦ ---

All I can say to those who werenā€™t there is: at the time I and my goodladywife were leaving, **Angua** and **pingalondon** were emerging from the ladiesā€™ loo having (allegedly) been paid by **ianzin** to swap clothing. I think that sums up the tenor of the evening quite nicely. Oh, and **Heloise** , who is indeed exceedingly lovely and charming, is now all-too-familiar with the difference between US and British drinking habits and the effects of consuming beer by the pint (but remained lovely and charming nevertheless). ---

You know, itā€™s funny, because although I can swear I never touched a drop last night, Iā€™m was still feeling less a little rough around the edges this morning. Must be from all that ā€œpassive drinkingā€ I was forced to do. I swear - the sheer amount of alcohol fumes wafting around that place was enough to embalm a horse. oog. ---

I think we ended up being paid in beer. Apparantly, I have to turn up to the next DopeFest wearing a slinky top similar to **pingalondonā€™s**. Slightly unrelated with respect to pictures - does anyone have any pictures of me which are at least slightly respectable (i.e. none in the ā€œ **Tir** and **Angua** do thingsā€ vein) that they wouldnā€™t mind me using on my website? ---

Why nothing, my little sugar-plum. Merely that I had a great time, and that you give great snogs, as I can personally attest to (as can **Ianzin** and **Heloise** , and possibly **Tir** as well, although Iā€™m a little hazy on that one). ---

fat chance. Iā€™m too hungover to be jealous. šŸ˜‰ High points for the evening for me were: 1. Girls snogging - always good. 2. Us getting poor lil **confessorknight** absolutely blatted. MUAHAHAHA Memorable quotes from the evening: _On the suggestion that light pollution is as big a threat to society as passive smoking_ **Crusoe** : Oh come on! Roy Castle didnā€™t die from having people shine torches in his eyes did he! _andā€¦_ **Tir** _(Asking someone for a cigarette)_: Fag?! **ScifiSam:** You called? ---

What is it about girl on girl action that drives you lot wild?? Another good one was when I was talking about the meeting I had to go to this morning, and I mentioned that one of the participants in said meeting was my Group Head. Poor **Crusoe** only caught ā€œgroup headā€, and got rather excited! ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Angua \* > **Men!

I just know i enjoy it. šŸ˜ƒ I wonder if all dopefests turn into alcohol-fueled comedy nights and orgies or if its a uniquely British thing. ---
