Our next social gathering will be this coming Wednesday. I will miss it due to a nightshift, but Mary will be there.

*bump*

We have just learnt that the pub where we have our social has, unusually, some live music going on this Saturday 16th October when we are due to meet again...

I think we have 2 options:

1) Meet there at 7.30pm anyway, and enjoy the music as well as our social
- it's an acoustic gig so shouldn't be too loud, and the music probably won't start til 9ish anyway,
- but the disadvantage is that it might be a bit louder than usual in the pub later on, and we might get asked for a couple of quid to stick around.

2) Move the meet back 2 days and get together at 8pm on Mon 18th
- should be as quiet as it usually is,
- but the disadvantage is that BVR readers (who we can't easily inform of the change) might make a wasted trip on Saturday and not find us. And also, moving it might muck up the plans of those who have kept the 16th free in order to come along.

As an aside, one of the musician's playng on Saturday is a BVS member, and I would like to go and support him. That means that I will go to the place on Saturday anyway, even if we do decide to meet there on Monday and I end up there twice in 3 days!

So, my vote is for option one, though I suggest that we meet a bit earlier, say from 6.30pm, so we get more chatting time in before the band are on.

What do others think?

Mary.

I go with meeting there anyway and enjoying the music. If there is stuff to discuss then there is always a retreat to the toilet foyer downstairs, or as the Fonz would call it, 'Office!'.

Yeah, sounds like a plan.

Unless anyone says they have a strong objection in the next 24 hours, then I suggest we stick with that.

I suggest that we get there a bit earlier, as mentioned above... I'll aim for 6.30pm :)

Were not going to meet in the Slug and Lettuce this Thursday, due to Christmas being so near and the increasing noise there. Instead, for this month at least, Mary and I will host an open house with mince pies and mulled wine at our house on Saturday 18th from 7pm, soon after the committee meeting (which BVS members are welcome to observe).

Please RSVP here or to me or Mary if you're going to come along.
