I thought some Serbian terrorist started the first one. Actions have consequences.

I think blaming someone for getting in the way of an assassin's bullet is a bit rough.

Re: Drat, drat and double drat
Back on topic, our issues seem to have resolved themselves without too much bloodletting. We're going to stay with the reduced space/wrong day option at Airbus. We've also identified a Thursday night location a few miles south west. That's too far for some so a splinter group is going to meet a few miles to the north east.
The distances probably sound trivial to those in the antipodes but seven miles in tea time traffic can be a nightmare round here.
Being between the two venues. I shall probably flit between them.

It is the shock Americans get, the sheer density in the UK of its population.
Re: Drat, drat and double drat
Yes, some places the population is very dense indeed.

As anyone who has seen Peter Kay's Car Share can testify. And, to be fair, it's very rare for people to get kidnapped and murdered without someone noticing.Buff Redux wrote: ↑Mon May 10, 2021 11:59 am The distances probably sound trivial to those in the antipodes but seven miles in tea time traffic can be a nightmare round here.
(Yes, I know, it's more Jeremy's neck of the woods, but it's north of Watford, isn't it?)

Re: Drat, drat and double drat
Well, six of us were able to evacuate the club stuff from the old building today. Most of the important stuff got moved to the new facility. A lot of the rest is in various people's garages until we sort through. A fair amount of old tat was binned.
Re: Drat, drat and double drat
What! We wanted that old tat!
