Born 2B Mild Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 The forecast for Monday is RAIN. Just thought that you might like to escape the weather/DIY etcetera and join me and Vic this Monday for a bit of banter, bass fondling and [url="http://www.bassgear.co.uk/2012/05/bank-holiday-bass-buffet/"]buffet [/url]biting. Jill On The Till is sorting out a spread of finger food for us all to enjoy, plus some vino and soft drinks. No worries if you don't buy anything ...just feel free to drop in and be sociable. As all our neighbours are not working, we'll have the (free) car park to ourselves. But then there's Twyford train station next door for those who want to not drive (perfect for you Ped!). Hope you can make it. Cheers, Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hector Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 It's been a stinker of an April, officially!: [url="http://www.ox.ac.uk/media/news_stories/2012/120504_1.html"]http://www.ox.ac.uk/media/news_stories/2012/120504_1.html[/url] I'd love to come down and say hi/play a few basses. Might have to do some work on Monday not sure yet, but if I can pinch the time I'll swing by! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oopsdabassist Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Got to be in East Beds at lunchtime, but may well be free after, what time will you be there until? Would love to come along and have a chat!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xgsjx Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 I can't make it (distance being one of the factors, the Mrs being another ), but I hope you guys have a great day.

Hector Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Thanks for a great time today guys!
