Not sure this is so now especially after all the snipes being taken :( :( Shame really!

Personally when the list was started it was to show interest in attending the event. When it was aparent that there was going to be
tickets available for 'clubs' then the assumption became it was a list of interest to actually attend. Now I know to assume can make
an 'ass of u and me' but I've been round the block a few times and have a degree in the University of Life i.e 25 years in the Royal Navy!
But surely common sense prevails. Ok i've had my rant.

I have had a message from Bibs via the TLF stating that he is sorting out club tickets on Monday so hope to hear then when our allocation
will be posted.

Trevor :cheers:

@Scott, it's the one south of Norwich City. Spud is booked in there as well. We're going to hit Norwichs night life on Saturday. Probably mean a short taxi ride into the city centre but hopefully more choice grub wise.
Could the 'Hokey-Cokey' actually be what it's all about?

Norwich centre does indeed provide a good choice grub-wise. Pub-wise too.
Cosmo is well worth a try but it is very popular, so worth booking in advance.

I don't know the area too well myself but I know someone who lives within walking distance of the city centre. I'll go & get him.

Generally, anyone from Scotlad is admitted as long as they are carrying a bottle of something malty (not including Horlicks/Ovaltine) :D

(but on a serious note, at past events it's an 'open' invitation to anyone who wants to drop in - no doubt, there will be better info nearer the time)
