Experts have been furiously studying all evidence to determine exactly (or even roughly) the events that took place last night.
Questions needing answering include:
Why did Mellow disappear from the disco at 12:45?
If 'Chelle was not "pished", how come she spent so much time under the table at the curry house?
Why was Pete infatuated by the girl with the pink furry front?
What did Heather find so fascinating about the caravan-sized sub-woofer?
How come wrx was physically capable of posting on Scoobynet at 11:06 this morning?
Is it really a good idea to drink continuously for 12 hours?
Hopefully this thread will unravel these, and other mysteries!!!!
mb
p.s. Jolly good night, and big thanks to Pete for getting us into Walkabout!!!

i suppose we can very sadly say - We have had our First injury from our organised meets!
This injury was caused by some very enthusiastic individuals devoted to their passion! NO NOT Subaru's! But DRINKING!
The injured party - MELLOW! is still in birmingham because of this Intoxication. i do believe everyone on the meet should take full responsibility for the contribution of 50+ pence per person which went towards the DIRTY PINT, which mellow volunteered to drink. NICE ONE! what a sport?
anyway, the girl with the pink top on was quite a dancer! i promise u all she was not in any way a bit dirty???? she could have eaten me for breaky!
yep - great nite all round.

Pete,
If that was the same bird in the hotel this morning, she looked a tad rough in daylight
Let's sing...
Oh, what a night, late December back in '01
What a very special time for me
As I remember what a night!
(hmm, doesn't work that, does it?)
Corking night! Got to bed at 4.30am after a very nice curry. Mouth like Ghandi's flip flop this morning.
Nice bit of shopping in Brum this morning as well, got to the station and found a train home was just about to leave. Result.
Sooo, let's get some names down for the Birmingham Spring Bash 2002

Cheers guys, I had a great night
Got to bed about 4.30am after the dodgiest 'taxi' ride ever! 2 stoned asian lads gave Matt, Neil & me a lift home in their bone-shaker Honda which kept cutting out all the way back. We spent most of the journey on the wrong side of the road & didn't stop at one set of traffic lights! We got home ok & Matt paid, so I can't complain
Looks like Mellow can't hold his drink In bed before 1am, poor effort!
M_D_B, don't think we didn't notice you had gone missing rather early too! & you were on the cokes most of the night - must do better next time
Curry was good but the view from where I was sitting was even better
Nice to see you all again, hope you have a good Christmas!
Cheers,
Jon

trying to text you, but who knows!!! Sorry you couldn't make
it, always a pleasure to see ya.

Just a few more bits to add...
Thanks to Uncle Pete for marshalling us around and getting us into Walkabout and Bombay Mix.
Has anyone heard from or seen Mellow yet? Has he left the hotel yet? 
Craft, they tried to charge Kev (or was it Boomer) for 3 breakfasts!
Probably my last Scooby meet of the year - good to see everyone, had a great laugh.
Take care folks and see you all in 2002.
Merry Christmas.
Chris.

Wow what a nite out
Great to see you all again ! Never danced (term used very loosly) and sung so much in years
how good was that live band My main memmory has to be in the club under the Aussie bar and that flippin bass box that we stood next to !
Shame Mellow was so ill this am, I have felt better but after a stroll around the shops I felt loads better.
I'm still amazed at the amount of traffic in Broad St at 4am
This has to become a bi-annual event, Pete mentioned a canal trip around B'ham
See you all again soon and have a wonderful Christmas !
K
P.S .. They did try and charge me for 3 breakfasts ..

Chris,
when i got back to the hotel (after a wake-up/soberising stroll, at 14:00), i decided to check the car park, and caught Mellow just leaving. He was sober (not having had a drink in over 12 hours) but certainly looking a tad rough - i'll leave it to Mellow to describe the details, as it made me feel squeemish! Someone might want to search for an emoticom involving stomach wall hitting the porcelain though, just in case
I'm up for a canal trip next (and no smutty comments please).
Hope everyone recovers, and Merry Chrimbo!

[Edited to confirm the time of Mellow's final departure]

No....no piccies thank gawd I would hate to imagine what the nightclub ones would have looked like LOL
Heather and I became band groupies for the night and even got on stage with them
I have a website and email address to contact them with as I thought they were great and wouldn't mind seeing them again......
I shouted "Big up to the Scoobynet lot" which was wasted as most weren't listening
Overall a top time had by all
Thanks everyone it was great and has really cheered me up - unfortunately that may mean I have to go back to work earlier

Did you have to pay at the till bit where you came into
the eating area, as we thought it would go on ya total bill
at checkout. "Minter", turned out to be a corkin' weekend after all, turns out we won a ton on the lotto so that pays for our weekend out
Laura, no piccies I'm afraid, and I'm afraid you'd be too young to
view them

OK.......ok........ok.....BARSTEWARDS.......the lot of yer !
Simply put, after downing that concoption of the dirtiest pint I've ever had the misfortune to drink, I proceeded to have the best night's dancin and singing had for a long time......until 12.45am when the room wasn't just spinning but it was upside..inside out etc....went back to the room, collapsed....woke at 2.30am and was violently sick every half hor through to 10.00am, then continued to be sick hourly until 1.30pm.....driving at 65mph (sober I may add after checking with a breatheliser) back up the M6, I found every bump and ripple all the way home after stoppin 3 more times to heave ho !
Finally got home at 6.45pm to find Skippy (a scoobynetter) visiting me and bringing me some scoob bits, he didn't go till 8.45pm.....I limped to bed and have just risen......STILL feeling poorly !!!!!
A big bout of alcohol poisioning methinks.....or dodgy bic mac in that stylish restaurant you took me to
Either way, sorry if I let the side down, wasn't meant, isn't me, as you know I'm usually MR PARTY ANIMAL. I took the bait drank it down and perished, simple as that......never again
Thanks for your txt's of concern.....John you tw^t sorry I couldn't reply...but I was dying
Soon then eh ! maybe a Manchester bash and me, graham and heather will show you midlands girls how to really party

Well I've finally surfaced after spending most of Sunday in bed asleep! My guts have yet to recover however
That Red Bull stuff does keep you going and kept me awake for most of the night (even though I was knackered when I arrived there!) - but you still have to recover when the effect wears off
Had a top night in the Walkabout!
Amanda, you didn't know who you were texting 1/2 the night I still have most of em on my phone, including 'I'm Amanda, have you got the right number? Are you in Brum?'
Oh yes & I saw the other one as well!

I wasn't asleep!
How could anyone sleep on that!!!! Not to mention the amount of caffiene I had inside me with all those Red Squares
I was merely resting before rejoining you mad lot on the dancefloor
the music did get a bit boring towards the end though.

Certainly sounds like a fun night out, next time one's arranges I'll try to make it along, but this time prior commitments got in the way. I just hope you left enough beer and babes for next weekend when I'm up on Broad street.
