It'll probably be the same sort of routine. Its been 2 years since the last time so... i just have to check on the white swann. last time i was in town for a non-ng event they were having a private party and not doing karaoke so i dont want that to happen.

The hub page has event info now. If you've been to one before then you will find it to look familiar. See you goons next month.

I don't know. Either I was basking in having one girl at an event or I was drinking when I punched up the roster

Just got told I have to move house again. Now all the money I had saved up for a hotel and train tickets has to go on yet another deposit.

I hate my life. Maybe I'll be able to get down there for the day on just the train ticket, but it's not looking likely, and won't be as much fun as the other times either (I won't get to watch Luis fall asleep face-down in a couch at the end of the night this time).

I'll find something. I'm just penny watching as usual after spending too much at Christmas, and both parents birthdays coming up in January (Luis shares his birthday with my dad).

Thinking I'll just stay overnight on the Friday and be off home by Saturday afternoon/evening.

This would be a blast! Let's see...

Airfare to London, round-trip 2 people: $2500....
Hotels for the weekend: $300-500
Restaurants: $200
Cab fare: $60

Uh....yes, this certainly would be a blast!

Considering I'm surviving on a student budget, I may only be able to come for one of the meet days. Likely the 18th, unless I've got anything going on on those dates (e.g. exams). Will let you lot know.

they did you a favour travelodge is like fucking auschwitz. I shit you not, while staying in one for christmas because I had to visit my family, they DIDN'T HAVE HAIR DRYERS. what sort of fucking hotel doesn't have a god damn hair dryer? that's ON TOP OF the bathroom floors being made from god knows what and the showers not even being showers and the sofas smelling like someone finger banged the queen on it 6 years ago and didn't have it washed since...

premier inn has my loyalty.

I most likely won't be attending at all now. I called the vets today about how much I owe them for the 29th and my bill is just over £500, which was for my dogs treatment and then sadly to be put down at home and cemented separately and to eventually get her ashes back. I would apologise but I lost my best friend and thats all I can be really sorry about right now.

A night out would probably do me good, really good actually, but I'm going to need every penny I have right now.. I swear my dog was the cause last year too for me not being able to attend. Just wish this time round it didn't end with her leaving me forever.

wow I am so sorry, if my dog passed I don't know what I would do.. the little guy I have (daschaund/wiener dog) is my anchor and best bud and would spend as much money as I need to have him for as long as I can, and I wouldn't blame ya Gags if you did the same.

I don't know what to say, Gagsy. Hope you feel better soon and at the end of the day, it's your decision, so I'll support it either way.

Aw Gags I'm sorry to hear this. I know how the death of a dog can mean unreasonable amounts. Maybe take some traits from your old friend and become strong and instinctive like ze vulf.

Yeah my dog was the same for me. I can't express in words just how badly I am taking this right now. And sadly there is the little nagging voice that maybe I could have done more. There was the option for an operation but on my vets advice she most likely wouldn't have pulled through and I much rather her die at home surrounded by her family then to pass away on a table with a surgeons hands inside her gut.

Still the doubt hurts just as much as the loss. Enjoy the time you have with your own dog. Cause when they're gone it feels like it was never close to being enough with them.

I really know how that feels. I got home from school and my dad was crying (never seen in my life this madness). Similar scenario where she could've had the operation, and money was no object over love like that, but it would've only bought her another week, maybe two, of quite serious pain. Her stomach and insides had all twisted round and she swelled right up. She was noble the whole time; very stoic old girl.

Make a little grave in your garden for your dog, that's what we did. It helps. And the funny thing is I think the dog we got a year after knows she's buried there, because it's the only part of the garden he's never done a shit. My condolences again Gags.

Sorry to hear that Gagsy. I remember when my dog passed away i was out of town, i think finding out through the phone was particularly rough. I had a feeling that would be the last time i saw my dog when i left weirdly enough. I dismissed it but it bothers me still in hindsight. Anyway yeah, totally understandable if you are under deep financial pressures. Hope things get better for you.
