All this is kicking off next week, right? It has been mentioned a fair bit in the after-discussion group trips to the Graduate - who here plans to attend, and which days/times? I plan to go every day for various amount of imbibage - maybe we could organise a time for a few of us to meet up and have some drinks.

Why the hell didnt u ask me. You know im a real ales activist.

The festival runs on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday from 6pm till late, 1am ish.

The festival is free to enter on Wednesday until 10pm. After that and on all the other
days it costs Â£2.50 to get in on each day if you are not a member (Joining is Â£2.50
online at the SU website if ur clever and going on more than one day). Pints are priced
according to strength starting from Â£1!

I am serving on the festival on Wednesday so cannot drink on pain of death (and it will
be painful) this is a bummer. BUT this means i will be all the more determined to get
the most out of the festival on the Thursday.

As a massive personal preferance if there is to be a gathering i'd like it to be a
Thursday where u will find me under a table somwhere, or inside a cask.

I'll also be there on Friday at 6 till i am forced to catch a train as inebriated as
I can possibly get myself in under an hour.

I'll see you there...

I'll probably see you on the Wednesday then, I'll have a couple of pints on your behalf :D Hey, you can still eat pork stratchings when you're serving, right? :)

We should definitely rally the peeps for the Thursday! Jamie, you're up for it, right?

Yes, i'm tired check the time.

I have just done serving for 8 hours serving, during which time i was not allowed
to drink and was forced to stand up.

I then did 2 my 2 hour moderating shift (as i can technically) i am now done.

Do i qualify for the new late night post. I am the only one in the maths comp room,
so i qualify for somthing.

I think i'll sleep now, can't work out if i can be bothered to go to my room.

BTW it was all worth it i got a cool t-shirt.

See you Thursday if i wake up.

Analysis 2 woo

Festival = so goodddddddd

Maugy, after you left for train, I stayed for some more drinks, that 60p helped me out in the end so thanks :D I still think its way too hard to pace yourself there, but I didn't have you forcing me to down stout, so my mind felt a lot clearer going to Anime thing :P

I would just like to clarrify that forcing you to down stout constituted me telling
you to down it, you sipping it, then me telling you to down it again. In a long
cycle. It wasn't even a full half pint. Suppose you've gotta learn somtime.

Normally i wouldn't force somone not to waste beer and drink it myself instead, but
I had a schedule to stick to.

As for good you all missed out except possibly Dan.

Well now ive been there got the T-shirt.
