Any more local or not-so-local 'Catters want to meet up? Directions to the Jolly Angler, Ducie Street, on request. Noreen |

(I can't help being pedantic, but I'm considering therapy.) I want a tardis so I can pop over for things like this! |
30 Mar 01 - 08:23 AM (#429127) Subject: RE: Sat Night in Manchester (30th March 01) From: Noreen Aw, Jeri- thought you were coming over then... And thanks for the pedantism- it is pretty important! Catrin!!!notice that I never noticed....Noreen |
30 Mar 01 - 08:32 AM (#429139) Subject: RE: Sat Night in Manchester (30th March 01) From: Midchuck This doesn't sound like any places I know of in Manchester, VT; or Manchester, NH; or even Manchester, CT. Are we talking about some 'furrin' locality? Peter. |

30 Mar 01 - 08:54 AM (#429161) Subject: RE: Sat Night in Manchester (30th March 01) From: Midchuck I knew that! I was just hackin on ya! P. (It is probably a good idea to identify a country, or a US State or Canadian province, though. For instance, I think there's a Bristol in each of the six New England states, and Gawd knows how many elsewhere. And we have two Portlands, both good sized cities, and 3000 miles apart.) |

30 Mar 01 - 12:58 PM (#429354) Subject: RE: Sat Night in Manchester (31st March 01) From: Noreen That'll be about right, Geordie. JohnB, Michael and Sheila behind the bar were discussing and tasting an interesting drink a couple of weeks ago at the Jolly Angler, and the name just happened to be spoken in a lull between verses of a song... orgasm is apparently a combination of Jameson and Bailey's. Would you still like a double?? :0) Not tried it myself... Noreen |

There again our kids are 22 and 23 so I guess there are other things I did not give up. Listen carefully you may hear me joining in on the choruses. I will be thinking of you all there, maybe you could try multiple Orgasm's :)- JohnB |

01 Apr 01 - 04:59 AM (#430443) Subject: RE: Sat Night in Manchester (31st March 01) From: GUEST,Llanfair at her sister's Well, we didn't get any singing done, because the fiddlers/pipers etc had already set up in the corner when we arrived, and were just beginning to flag at midnight. However, we had a great time chatting and drinking a bit. We'll do the singing on Monday!! Thanks for the lift back, JohnJ. Cheers, Bron. |
01 Apr 01 - 05:12 AM (#430448) Subject: RE: Sat Night in Manchester (31st March 01) From: John Routledge YES LLANFAIR - It is not necessary to sing ALL the time. Very enjoyable evening - met 1/2 dozen interesting new musical people. Singing in earnest on Monday!! Cheers GB |
