If not, any where else we want to get down and dirty ...

Sonic'

Hurrah, hopefully as a Beefeater the food will improve The Morris Dancers going into Southport was recently done up Beefeater stylee and is very nice...
The Micklehead was known for its, warm expensive beer and cheap cold food... Would be nice for them to get them the right way round this time
I would love to come but I dont own a scooby and dont live in Tellins anymore

Enjoy

Sonic'

It wouldnt be the same if you ever turned up

Just been round and the new signs have gone, opening night is 15th October so too late for this Months Micklehead meet

So the alternatives are

1. Walton Arms this thursday at 8pm (ish) 11th October

or

2. Waterside, Car Mill this thursday at 8pm (ish) 11th October

NotoriousREV

I vote Walton Arms

NotoriousREV

Surely he'd have to pay someone to take it off his hands? He should break it, I hear used duct tape is fetching good prices these days.

Sonic'

Ok, as your the 2nd person to vote (i voted first )

Its the Walton Arms, 8pm Thursday 11th October

Sure I voted Waterside as soon as Sonic posted ... but it's gone!

Walton arms if you want, not sure when I'll be there, after 9pm anyway, more like 9:30. PLEASE STAY!!!!

Abdabz

The St Helens meet becomes the ar$e end of Runcorn meet instead The Waterside is a special place and even though I am not going, it gets my vote
On Cup Final dat in 1996, me and a friend had our drinks spiked in there by two bin dippers who were jealous of our splendid victory. My friend had running races with imaginary sprinters, while I was taken home to stroke an imaginary dog in the kitchen much to my mums horror. We often returned hoping to see them again so we could "thank" them for their free drugs, but alas never had that chance
Also, I was banned from the waterside once for refusing to leave my unfinished beer at closing time. A friend of mine once got barred for smashing up the loos too I used to take all my first dates there when I was a teenager and then after a few drinks, drive over the dam for a smoke and a bit of
The Walton Arms on the other hand, is somewhere I used to go for xmas lunches when I worked at O2 in PB...
It just doesnt have the same jerr nerr say parr as The Waterside

NotoriousREV

This of course assumes that Runcorn consists of parts that aren't ****.

Abdabz

True Just "Runcorn" it is then

PS just saw the pics of your special white car Very nice squire

Sonic'

Sadly we wont be going now due to a close family friends death earlier this afternoon

NotoriousREV

Sorry to hear that mate

TURBOTRONICS

Sorry to here your bad news mate I was looking forward to seeing you and Donna tonight

TURBOTRONICS

where abouts is the walton arms has any one got the post code for it please

Anderooo

Can't make this one, but will try for next month. Now this "when I worked at O2 in PB... " just scares me. When was that mate?

vulnax999

I'm on running around duties until after 9 tonight, so unlikely to make it all the way over to the Walton Arms.

In return, I WILL make it to the newly opened Micklehead next month!

NotoriousREV

So is anyone actually going? Or should we can it?

NotoriousREV

I'm assuming that's a "no", then?

Abdabz

I left O2 two years ago, but I go over to PB regularly in my current role (I work for someone else now) and I worked in PB (and O2 in Bury) from when it opened until July 2005.
I was last over there in September (can usually be found sat with the IT guys or at the smokey bus shelter )

Anderooo

I might know you, look forward to the next meeting.

I am still there, been here again since it opened and actually before when it was something else.

Abdabz

Same here fella. I was at MDT in Priestley House from 1997 on Corp / National Accts... I dont go to the meetings anymore though. I went early on in Scooby ownership but my last meet was the NBO in 2005.

And I work for the same head honcho now as I did in 1997...If you get my drift. Small world

Anderooo

LOL certainly is I started there in 97 as well, still work in IT there. Will keep my eyes open in case you visit in the future then.
