Tacticalkat Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 The fireworks-watching and boozing will feature in my plans too, but since I finish work at 7 I'm thinking I should try to organise dinner somewhere in town then drinks after that. We've usually gone to London Bar on NYE - surprisingly quiet and comfortable despite the huge crowd outside on Queen St. But they went out of business. Unsurprisingly, I guess! Again, more than welcome to meet up with us if you want to, we are meeting up with some others in town so won't be all girls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Ed_ Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Oh and I forgot, my friend said the cell phones pretty much don't work at all so I guess we just try and organise a general place to meet and then will hopefully bump into each other? Yeah, it's not good to fully rely on cellphones so a pre-arranged meeting might be easiest. We should probably agree in advance on where we're going after the BDO too. Somewhere like Deschlers, maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I will try to be at the place where you are at 5:45, but will need to ask Aimee where I actually need to be. The t shirts should help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 It's really good for me - no clashes at all. I really want to see The Veils, so I guess I'll head to the main stage when they finish at 5:45. Sweet. Yeah I wouldn't mind seeing The Veils too, but hmm, I'll see. OH well done you!!!! That's awesome, did you like it? I think we are going climbing at Glen Eden tomorrow, if any of you are keen to join us you are more than welcome! Yeah, I liked it but I need to get a bit stronger before going again I think I am keen for a t shirt, but I want mine to be a singlet. I have seen places around but don;t know where is the best, my friend just got some made so I can ask her. Cool. There is one place I saw where you can order them online but I think they just had plain t-shirts. Oh and I forgot, my friend said the cell phones pretty much don't work at all so I guess we just try and organise a general place to meet and then will hopefully bump into each other? They have worked for me at BDO, but yeah best to organise something before hand just in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they have them at the mall, I think you just buy your own t shirts and then they just put the print on them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I think that's like the one in the mall by me. But then that's means I have to go find a good plain t-shirt, which might be difficult Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Ed_ Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 One thing about that timetable is that there's not much early in the day - I love The Checks, but I've seen them four times now, and I've seen Deja Voodoo twice. So I don't know if there's anything I really want to see before about 3pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then that's means I have to go find a good plain t-shirt, which might be difficult The Warehouse does good plain t shirts, and probably farmers. That's one of the reasons I want a singlet, I know where I can get a good plain one that will fit, not sure if they have blue ones though.

So I don't know if there's anything I really want to see before about 3pm. This fixes the drinking problem though! I want to drink, but obviously don't want to be drunk for Muse and end up missing it, so therefore I think I will drink in the day and then sober up for the afternoon!!

_Ed_ Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Haha, and then get drunk again afterwards? I like it! I might do the same, but I don't want to have to pee after I go into the D... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, that's my plan! Hmmm, the peeing thing would be an issue though. I guess I am hoping to be sober enough to have peed enough before we go in there, because I am not leaving my spot once we have it! You could take a bottle I spose..... And then drunken Deshlers! This day is going to rule! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Ed_ Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Love the Desh. They've played Muse the last two times I've been there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tacticalkat Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Love the Desh. They've played Muse the last two times I've been there. I hope that smiley is not aimed at my bottle idea!! Yeah I love it, especially since it's been taken over by Scotty and his mates and it's all rock oriented now. Though it has been pretty quiet the last couple of times I have been, but that's ok.

So I don't know if there's anything I really want to see before about 3pm. Yeah, same here. But I might just go early anyway and see The Checks for something to do. Then I can get lunch and hang around green and essential til time to go into the D. The Warehouse does good plain t shirts, and probably farmers. That's one of the reasons I want a singlet, I know where I can get a good plain one that will fit, not sure if they have blue ones though. Ok, I shall try have a look this week. Who has the good plain singlets? This fixes the drinking problem though!

Dotty had them, nice and also cheap, but I can't remember what colours! I can go and have a look probably tomorrow. I think I will spend the time that I am not band watching on the rides =) Am borrowing my bestie's husband as no one else wants to go on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darkshineskitty Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 The timetable looks pretty empty in the morning and midday for me. Gets fuller later. I didn't know The Temper Trap were coming I can't decide if I want to risk the D or not. Might get in there early and hang around the back to get a feel for things, so I can bail if it gets uncomfortable. I'm staying at a friend's place for the night with a bunch of friends, so probably no Deschlers for me. Although if they're keen and we happen to meet you guys during the night, maybe we'll see how things go! I hope you guys get t-shirts so I can spot you in the crowd and tail you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough though, sounds cool. Hope we'll see you at some point during the day. But attendance at the Shadows night at the end of February is compulsory.

Tacticalkat Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 I didn't realise it's New Years tomorrow! That crept up on me out of nowhere! Eek! Must try and remember how to walk in heels for tomorrow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Ed_ Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Sounds like a recipe for disaster if you're planning on drinking! And yeah, it really has snuck up. I still haven't arranged anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tacticalkat Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 It'll be fiiiiiine! I'll wear my trusty sky highs that I just know I can do drunk in! TBH I think the best new years nights I've had are the ones where we have a general sort of plan and everything else is just where ever the night takes us. Ewww my fingers are bleeeeeding. But the climbing was win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tacticalkat Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 I will be surprised if we make it past one, because we tend to start a bit earlier now too. It was so totally worth it! How is your day going today? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
