Party: (updated)
Now, since there are only four people or so who actually want to come, and we have had the worst possible time trying to get together in the past, I’m willing to be flexible about the time and place. How about drinks and maybe dinner at the Strawberry Hills Hotel? How about the 22nd or the 29th?
Of course, you will all be required to dress up. As shrimp. Anyone not dressed as shrimp will be given noogies.
UPDATE: Looks like the 23rd is the go. If you have issues with that, feel free to whine in the comments. If not, see you at the Strawberry Hills around 7:30.

I may come, however I veto me dressing up as a shrimp.
The shrimp colour does nothing for my complexion.

Pretty cool to be able to have multiple going away parties in a month-long period.
So you’ve talked to yr supervisor bout hitting the perthstyles then?

Lucy - Are you kidding? Shrimpage is very flattering. And six-foot antennae definitely make you look taller.
Tom - We haven’t talked since November. Hope she hasn’t changed her plans :( But multiple parties - that’s pretty sweet.

I am with Lucy on the shrimp thing.
I will come but I will probably be fairly late. There’s no way I’ll be in the city before about 9. And I’m not allowed to drink too much cause I work Saturdays.
As usual, bad timing but I’m sure it’ll all work out.

OK, so a Friday. Shelley’s fine with either of them. Anyone else have any preferences?

Well, I’d prefer a Saturday but I can make a Friday :p
Comment by nailpolishblues — Friday February 8 2008 @ 12:26 pm
*sigh* OK, let’s say Saturday then.

22 is fine (i’ll need to cancel something, but that’s cool), 23 is fine after 7pm. 29 is fine after 7.30pm. 1 is mardi gras night, but that’s boring.

OK, the 23rd!

Cool. BTW, what´s a noogie? Should I wear some form of protection?
Comment by James — Friday February 8 2008 @ 4:30 pm
Only helmet, matey!
Comment by Mark — Friday February 8 2008 @ 4:35 pm
James, hell yes.
Mark, how sweet you are.
Comment by nailpolishblues — Friday February 8 2008 @ 4:39 pm
Oops I meant *a* helmet, not that you’re going to need protection from someone’s helmet.
Um… I better shut up now.
Comment by Mark — Friday February 8 2008 @ 4:45 pm
I’ll be there sometime after eight [I finish work at seven, sorry]. The thing is, though, I will be there!

My friend Pat http://popgoescanberra.blogspot.com/ will be in town, so he will probably also come.
Comment by James — Saturday February 9 2008 @ 11:46 am
Cool :)
Comment by Mark — Monday February 11 2008 @ 2:25 pm
I’ll be there.

23rd it is. I love that I’ve had a part to play in all this. See? Whinging gets you places.

I very nearly accidentally agreed to work late on the 23rd. And then I remembered…
Would have been funny though.
