Come from all over to the exciting Birmingham B3ta bash! A fun time for all the family, bring entertaining things and lube.
It's gonna be The James Brindley, Bridge Street. This is just off Broad Street, next door to the huge blue towering Hyatt Hotel.

would a place to crash be availiable or do I need to sort out a youth hostel?
( , Mon 17 Jul 2006, 9:59, Reply)
I live not too far away from the centre, and may possibly have room for a couple in my room, but its a bit small and maybe cramped as I live in a shared house.
( , Mon 17 Jul 2006, 14:38, Reply)
who is going etc first as it is a while away, but I will keep the offer in mind
( , Tue 18 Jul 2006, 12:26, Reply)

( , Tue 1 Aug 2006, 22:04, Reply)

So...........

Edit:
I will come if I can find somewhere to crash.

you're a musicy type, you should understand the need for tunes!
( , Wed 16 Aug 2006, 16:38, Reply)
But there are tunes EVERYWHERE!!
Although I think I'd go and see the band too if it was already booked.
( , Thu 24 Aug 2006, 16:17, Reply)
Typical, the wife has made more plans for this time round. Something about dog sitting, a BBQ and a retirement party in Lichfield. Godfuckingdammitwhydoesthisnevergofuckingrightformeever?

...might there be room in one of your most mildew-tastic cupboards or baths for my drunken collapsing afterwards? I have a place provisionally sorted, but, since the host in question isn't actually coming, my conscience may get the better of me when I suddenly realise it's 3am and i'm implausibly beasted...
( , Thu 17 Aug 2006, 16:51, Reply)
there is even a spare room with a double bed for which I have the key!
room-a-plenty :D

From mammary memory, I would say they will be more than adequate :p
( , Mon 21 Aug 2006, 15:53, Reply)
Scouted out the place today.....located the exits.....possible sniping positions.....prepared a jet ski escape.....etc.....
Oh, and what time are people gonna be there?
( , Sat 26 Aug 2006, 18:54, Reply)
Will be running late thanks to Septegenarian Mother-party. I tried to explain that I would prefer to go and meet some strange youths I've never met before at a canalside pub in Birmingham, rather than celebrate her impending 70th birthday, but she became violent and unpredictable.
I've settled for an early dinner, folllowed by the Bash.
I'll probably be there about 10:30pm.
( , Tue 29 Aug 2006, 11:31, Reply)
Violent and unpredictable eh? Super! I hope you bring her along she'd fit right in!
I'll be there around 4 or earlier even!
( , Tue 29 Aug 2006, 11:33, Reply)
We managed to get her back in the cage without too much ado - the tranquilisers I got from my contact at West Midlands Safari Park worked a treat. Unfortunately, she isn't allowed within 2 miles of the city centre since the injunction.
( , Tue 29 Aug 2006, 12:02, Reply)
well I'll be around town from quite early on, Horrible and I are going to formulate a strategem sometime this week I should imagine. but feel free to add us to msn for ease of organisation :)
*imagines JJ jet skiing off down the canals*

I planned on being there at the time Mr H said itâd kick off â 6 (ish).
( , Tue 29 Aug 2006, 11:38, Reply)
I've got you some crayons as per instruction.
( , Wed 30 Aug 2006, 13:45, Reply)
Frankly, I don't care if you all turn up in jeans & "tea shirts", because it'll make me look more the sex.
( , Tue 29 Aug 2006, 14:19, Reply)
It's a little outfit i picked up at Leeds Fest at the weekend. I do hope it'll suffice.
And it's most definitely the sex.
( , Wed 30 Aug 2006, 11:24, Reply)
I've just realised I have no idea where the hell this pub is, and, not coming from Birmingham, the meagre directions/map don't really help. Is it in the town centre? Near to the train station, perchance..?
If somebody wants to take my number and guide me in - cough, as it were - (Mr Horrible? Chorizo?), could they drop me an email to [email protected]? Ta!
( , Thu 31 Aug 2006, 15:38, Reply)
It's not too close to the city centre (as in the Bullring, etc), but it's just off the main drinking street (watch out for the drunkards in football shirts).
The Hyatt hotel is difficult to miss, as it's fairly large - & it's directly opposite the big ferris wheel thing in Centenary Square.
At the bottom left hand corner, you can see the Five Ways island. That is the top of Broad Street - we need to be at the bottom of Broad Street.
Hope that clears things up for non-Brummies :)

anyone that also needs to have a telephone number just in case can mail me: [email protected]
( , Thu 31 Aug 2006, 22:56, Reply)
...is there space at someone's house for me and Rsoles (who hasn't actually signed in at the top, the big gheyer) to crash out afterwards?
*last train back leaves at 10:50 - what earthly use is that?
( , Thu 31 Aug 2006, 16:10, Reply)
I shall be there earlier than anticipated thanks to a change of plans on Saturday afternoon. Huzzah!
I shall arrive by Hansom Carriage somewhere around 8pm, doffing my bowler to the Doorman on the way in.
For all your sakes, I hope that Mr. Brindley's establishment sells Long Island Iced Tea or I shall be forced to walk the length of Broad Street to Revolution to obtain my drinks there.
Do we have to wear a single red rose, or affect an unusual handshake, to identify one another?
( , Fri 1 Sep 2006, 9:18, Reply)
there will be quite a few people there, and most of them will be easily identifiable as b3tan.
don't find us, we'll find you....
( , Sat 2 Sep 2006, 8:32, Reply)
anyone want to give me a bit of floorspace?
( , Fri 1 Sep 2006, 22:34, Reply)
but my spare room is dropping like a b3tans flies in a cdc factory
