    Ha, well quiet yes, but then have you ever walked in on a party where everyone is completely smashed, yet you're very sober? You should've hung on, I soon caught up. :D
    I came, I saw, I concurred.....

    I think we were looking for a larger variety of drinks... or something. Maybe the first place didn't sell jager?

    I think it was the lure of the Jager... and wanting somewhere to sit down :)
    Didn't we go there cos it was quieter?.... at first ;)

    I don't really remember it being much of a discussion :p it was more "erm.... so.... let's keep walking... THERE'S A BAR!!!"

    damn. I remember talking to SOMEONE about the bars we were near of.. but maybe that was waaaayyyy before we went out. :o


    and yeah, the noisiness of the first bar was the reason for our departure. :p

    I'm not quite sure... they're saying it was noisy... but the football ended :D then they said they wanted somewhere to sit down... there were PLENTY of seats :D and I had about 5 jager's in that place so it can't be that they'd no jager :D

    so basically... I dunno!

    there was Jaggerbombs? :eek:
    no wonder Simon and Claudio were in such a state! (not that I ever tried it but I saw the results in Norway!)

    Jeremy (to avoid confusion ;)), Mark, Fleur.. all disappearing before we're back! no chance to say bye :(

    the doorman freaked me out when he started asking for ID .. I'm TWICE the stupid UK legal age! why would I carry an ID?

    shame Claudio, Mark and both Jamies won't be there this weekend, or most of the Ozies... or the Nords ..though I'm sure the locals will give them a run for their money ;)

    ok, know what, we need to start talking Oktoberfest..hell, we might get enough people to fill a whole tent ;)

    you didn't' notice the jagerbombs? :eek: there were millions of them. Even before you left for the concert.

    I'm still on for oktoberfest :) although it'll be a while before I can know with 100% certainty... but if at all possible, I'll be there.. can't miss it again.

    Firstly, you should try it. It's good stuff :D Secondly, as a result of the Jager, if I'd stayed around any longer I probably wouldn't have been able to say bye anyway :p Was nice to meet you though. I'll try to stick around longer next time.

    there were.. but I guess the people drinking them weren't shouting about having them. :D

    In my experience, when the Masterhunter is involved, there is always shouting :D

    Yeah, 38 later this year !! Maybe he thought I was too old to go in ?:D
    And, thanks for the tip, but I don't envisage that as being an excellent way to win over a thick headed doorman .


    Anyways, who's up for a picnic on the farm with Neil in July ? :D:D:D
