Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: Liz the Squeak Date: 31 Mar 05 - 03:19 AM I'm home all day except for picking up Limpit from school at 3.30pm. If folks who arrive early would like to come and drink tea, they are welcome. As I'm catering for a whole flock of Ducks, I'm more than willing to make a huge communal pot of soup/stew/curry which folks are more than welcome to partake of if they so desire, before schlepping round the corner and up the road to the pub (or getting a lift with me!) for the session. If you wish to partake, please indicate in this thread. Soup/stew/curry - could be three meals, could be one... you never know! LTS |

And there it was with a big circle around it! Thanks Micca, really looking forward to this, as I suspect you may be as well! ;-D ..xx..e |

Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: black walnut Date: 31 Mar 05 - 11:43 AM Wish I could jump across the pond. I'd wear my black velvet harp dress and the garnet earrings I bought in Cambridge.... ~b.w. |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: Tinker Date: 31 Mar 05 - 12:27 PM I really thought I was gonna make this...but exactly 24 hours later I have to be at my son's Confirmation here in the states. UGH! I'll just have to get there another time.... See you at Getaway... perhaps we can have a virtual dressup day here in celebration tinker |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: Catherine Jayne Date: 31 Mar 05 - 12:35 PM Liz...I will take you up on that offer.....if you need any help you know where we are! If people want to meet about 2pm for a drink and 'hellos' at about 2pm that would be great....I am sure Micca, Manitas, Morti, Pixie etc will be there already...possibley from opening time! Lynne....I was thinking about getting a nice book that people can write in for us so we have a record of everyone who was there. It looks as though Micca and I will have a spare room if anyone needs space to crash for the night, PM me if you are interested. |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: el_punkoid_nouveau Date: 31 Mar 05 - 12:38 PM Fear not Sian - I WILL remember to take a hat with me (I forgot at Miskin). So you won't be the only one hatted up! |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: Catherine Jayne Date: 31 Mar 05 - 03:25 PM Micca and I went to the pub the other night escorted by Col K to discuss what guest ales will be on the bar....and we asked for decent cider too!! |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: Liz the Squeak Date: 31 Mar 05 - 03:34 PM So that would be about 2pm then would it? LTS : ) |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: GUEST,MMario Date: 31 Mar 05 - 03:36 PM is Col K chaperone? |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: Catherine Jayne Date: 31 Mar 05 - 03:37 PM do we need a chaperone??!! .....it maybe a bit late for that!! *BG* |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: MudGuard Date: 31 Mar 05 - 04:01 PM do we need a chaperone? Only if you also have a chapertwo ;-) |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: hesperis Date: 31 Mar 05 - 06:46 PM Really wish I could make it!!! Have a wonderful day, you two, and a beautiful life afterwards too! |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: GUEST,catsPHiddle in through the back door! Date: 01 Apr 05 - 11:05 AM Just bringing this back up to the top for those who may still need the B&B links. For those who can't make it on the day we are hoping to have a mudchat link and I am sure there will be loads of pictures of the celebrations! |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: Linda Kelly Date: 01 Apr 05 - 12:50 PM My intention is to come down on the Friday work willing,and stay over night I am goign to have to visit a very sick relative at the Barbican and cant decide whether to get hotel central or your end-how long would it take me by underground to Plaistow from the city or is it just not viable-as a Londoner I should know this shouldn't I.! |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: Raedwulf Date: 01 Apr 05 - 12:59 PM Col probably does qualify as a chapertwo, MudGuard! Size & volume both! ;-) Sian, whatever I wear, I'm always hatted, so don't worry... |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: Liz the Squeak Date: 01 Apr 05 - 05:23 PM Linda, depending on whether the District Line is running, it's about 45 mins -1hour to Barbican. Sometimes they do essential repairs at the weekends and close the line. The most time will be spent trying to work out which bit of the Barbican you need! Mudguard - I'm always happy to have a chapertwo around.... LTS |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: Tig Date: 01 Apr 05 - 05:35 PM So how many of us are you expecting at this wonderful event? Or aren't you brave enough to count! |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: Catherine Jayne Date: 02 Apr 05 - 03:14 AM Tig ... I did start counting who had said they were coming and I gave up at 78...a good proportion of those are catters but there are quite a few of our friends from the Pagan scene here in London coming... It is turning into a mini festival!...the Landlord said we can have the back bar on the Friday night for a session, the back bar and the hall all day on the Saturday and we can also have the back bar for a session on the Sunday if we want it....I said I will see how people feel about the Sunday! |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: Dave Bryant Date: 02 Apr 05 - 05:07 AM If the weather is warm, skyclad is smart casual - and comfortable. |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: MBSLynne Date: 02 Apr 05 - 09:17 AM But distracting Dave, very distracting..... |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: GUEST,catsPHiddle through the back door...again! Date: 02 Apr 05 - 09:37 AM Limpit and I have been to the hair dressers to have a trial run of having our hair put up...and they did a good job. Limpit looks absolutely gorgeous, she is going to look like a princess on the day. I would prefer it if people refrained from coming skyclad....I don't think we could get the bail money together...it would inpinge on the beer money!! |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: Raedwulf Date: 02 Apr 05 - 01:51 PM How about loincloths? ;-) |

Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: Liz the Squeak Date: 02 Apr 05 - 04:07 PM Two elderly ladies sitting on the beach when an elderly man suddenly strips off and runs past them, waving his todger in the air... 'Edna, did you see what that guy was wearing?' 'No Doris, I just noticed it needed ironing.' LTS |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: Catherine Jayne Date: 03 Apr 05 - 01:47 PM ..... Liz....speaking as a young, innocent person.....do they come in non-crease or easy iron??!!! |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: Mrs.Duck Date: 03 Apr 05 - 05:29 PM I find just smoothing them with your hand gets rid of the wrinkles. Or is that t shirts! |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: Liz the Squeak Date: 03 Apr 05 - 08:56 PM Young you may be.. innocent? NAHH!!!!! LTS |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: Catherine Jayne Date: 06 Apr 05 - 05:41 PM I know Liz...but if I keep saying it then it may be true!!! |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: GUEST Date: 07 Apr 05 - 11:13 AM Will skirtclad do then |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: Catherine Jayne Date: 07 Apr 05 - 12:46 PM If you like GUEST but I have to say if you don't post your name or PM Micca and I then you won't be allowed into the venue. There is a practical note to that...we need to know numbers for the caterers and the bar...we don't want to run out of food and beer and cider! |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: GUEST,MBSLynne Date: 07 Apr 05 - 03:25 PM Good grief no! 'Specially the cider! Did I say that we four are coming?? Love Lynne |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: Catherine Jayne Date: 07 Apr 05 - 06:11 PM You did Lynne!.....do you really think that we would want to run out of the cider??!!....that would be a disaster!! |
Subject: RE: BS: Micca & catsPHiddle's Handfasting part 2 From: Liz the Squeak Date: 08 Apr 05 - 03:21 AM YEah, because you'd have to drink beer, and that's mine! LTS |
