Hah, you know I'd be coming to that.
I haven't seen or heard of Rakky for yonks.

How is she?
She's just as hilarious in person as she is online. I've a lot of time for Rakky.

She is all of the ace!
Having met the pair of you I would love to be a fly on the wall when you two are out on the town.

Are you going to take her your unwanted green gym thingy as a house warming gift?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Fri 8 Oct 2010, 16:37, Reply)

no because
it's actually quite cool.

pink would have been better, but you know.

also you would have died laughing if you'd seen me spending hours putting my punchbag together last night. it took me about 100 trips with the kettle to fill the base with water. at about 1am. ridiculous. but hey, it works brilliantly now. my arms are killing me!
( rachelswipe with a fork, Fri 8 Oct 2010, 16:41, Reply)

Could you not just use sand to fill the base?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Fri 8 Oct 2010, 16:58, Reply)

yes but
i live in a second storey flat in kensington. where would i get sand from?? the shops near me sell chilli extra virgin oil and hand roasted almonds at midnight, not SAND.

i could have waited for my dad to bring some down from the garden centre in wilmslow, but i didn't know how much to ask him to buy.

Never mind.
Could you not have sent your concierge out to do your bidding?

Is your hand-speed* improving?

I'll bet a Swipe bash
Would require first-class air travel and pink champagne.

the savoy re-opens this weekend
it's a possible venue!

no, i would probably get one of my clients who owns a [well known chain of] pubs to give us an area and free food.
( rachelswipe with a fork, Fri 8 Oct 2010, 16:35, Reply)

If you're going for an area
I'd suggest you ask your client for the county of Kent. It always looks quite nice when I've been there.

I wouldn't choose the Savoy if I were you.
I designed most of the air conditioning and boiler controls.

really??
so how much of the leap from projected budget of £100M to the actual spend of £220M was your fault, eh??
( rachelswipe with a fork, Fri 8 Oct 2010, 16:51, Reply)

About £100,000
The original project just escalated. It wasn't my personal fault, nor my company's we just made the most of what was offered.
( Bartleby A dead man on vacation, Fri 8 Oct 2010, 17:04, Reply)

i am excited to see it actually
we are going next week
( rachelswipe with a fork, Fri 8 Oct 2010, 17:16, Reply)

It does look swish. They showed it on the news last night.
I may do the afternoon tea thing next year. If I start saving now.
( Bartleby A dead man on vacation, Fri 8 Oct 2010, 17:19, Reply)

Provisional sign up from me.
If only to witness Rakky falling over from laughter again.
