...where shall we go?
We need somewhere easy to get to, friendly, and preferably take-over-able (!)
I dunno. The trouble is me an' tomsk have nice pubs near our house that we go to, but that's not going to be convenient for other people.

I have a feeling going into a normal bar with us all running around with earsocks, etc, we might get burnt as witches or something.

There are several bars around there that are definately take-overable though. I could check about booking it out if you want.

Hi Lovelies
T-shirts are arriving at my office tomorrow afternoon and will be despatched Friday/Sat/Mon at the latest.
Sorry about the delays but I was still getting orders up until 4 days ago and it is difficult to know when to draw the line. (as its a charidee thing, the danger is underprinting, then people miss out or overprinting = no money to hosting fund)
Not a single cheque has been cashed and will not be until t-shirts are despatched.
Again apologies for the delay but more orders = more b3ta money = better feeling when wearing shirts etc.
So you will all have them next week:-)

think that the 8th is a good idea, as Mrzog may even be able to wing it over the water, and in doing so, may be able to smuggle CaptainK and the other US b3tans in his hand luggage.

you have an idea for a gif that is good in your head. Then halfway through potatoshopping you kind of forget what you were doing, then you try and animate it, and get all the frames confused. Then it ends up a bit big and a bit shit, but you think, well i've spent half a bloody hour tinkering with it, i'm gonna post it anyway. grr.
