Hi Everyone. Here is a little write up of the meet.
Friday
After spending many hours with Niall and Fooby the forum was finally back up and working. Doritos and Dips eaten we met up with Jonny & Poodle and drove the final hour to the Premier Inn. An hour, a quarter of a tank and many pops,bangs and flames later we arrived. Many people had already arrived and having found the Premier Inn attached pub was fully booked went to a harvester a few miles away. We checked in and went to our rooms. Unfortunately Stephen was already at the Harvester with our room key so I had to leave my belongings in Nialls room.

Immediately after dropping our things we got a call from DumDum. 'Ive broken my ankle, can you take me to the hospital please?'. After arguing that he should call an ambulance Niall and I took DumDum to the hospital. Amazingly with an A&E there wasnt an obvious entrance so we just left him with one of the ambulance drivers who assisted him limping in. We then popped in a the pub to see the others and reserve a table before driving back to the Premier Inn to meet Fooby and co.
Another drive later the whole club was sat down in a harvester eating some good food with terrible service. Fooby asked what Ale they had and the girl said she didnt know if they had it and she had never heard of a drink called Ale. A double facepalm later we ordered some drinks and she came back twice to say they didnt actually have what she had offered us. Three starters for £10 actually turned out to be 2 before your main and 1 after. Couldnt believe we paid for it really. What made it worthwhile was that it was Foobys Birthday so he got a desert (which didnt come with a spoon) with candles and Happy Birthday sung from all of us and all the pub staff. Congratulations buddy. Hope you enjoyed it!
Everyone begrudgingly paid and we went back to the premier inn so that everyone could meet in one room and watch Niall and Ruan in the bed. It was very odd and Stephen and I ended up going to bed.
