Back by popular demand!!!!

Since last Saturday's Voxgate was so successful (and I guess since you all really, really liked me ), it was suggested by several people to meet up before Mr. X and I head back to the wintry cold of Canada. So here's the plan:

Saturday, November 19 (We leave on the 22nd)
The Montagu Pyke once again (unless someone has any other ideas where to go?)
Same time as before - show up around 3 p.m.

Let's hope to have just as good a turnout!

By the way...it'd be a bit early...but my birthday is just two weeks after that.

Mrs. X

I love to meet you again but I'll make a decision nearer the time if that's OK Mrs X and if I did make it I'd have to leave roundabout the same time as last time. The Montagu Pyke was a nice enough venue.

I will be thinking of you on your birthday. (21 again)

Seems you've been spoilt by the unusually warm autumn in the UK <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="cool.gif" />

Can i come?

Dunno, I'm not privvy to your private medical records.

that was a good chuckle

just a quick note:

Next ELECTRIC DREAMS on November 11th at The Purple Turtle,Mornington Crescent tube Opposite the Former Camden Palace now named Ko Ko.. Starts 10.30pm-2am playing UVOX/NUMAN/JAPAN/SOTCELL/JOHN FOXX and classic dark early 80's sinpop/new-wave/ebm industrial and electroclash.

either way ill be up for 19th... :p

I'll be there on the 19th! Can only stay until about 7pm-ish, will have to get back to Bristol - but I'll definitely be there.

Cool! I'll deffo be there too. Prob can't stay as long this time but I'll be there as early as poss!

Be good to see you again, Phil! It's been far too long.

Ooo errr missus

Back on topic - sadly, visits to London are a rarity these days so we won't be there. Please ensure that much drunken revelry ensues and, as is traditional, I will drink a virtual Diet Coke with you.

It'll be great to finally meet you, Cerise! I'm so glad you're going to be there!!

Mrs. X

Yep, I'll try and be there but I don't see any reason why I can't I'll try and bring a couple of friends as well Both Ultravox/Numan fans

Why can't you? I don't see why not! Go ahead! I hope to see you all there.

Mrs. X

I am soooooooooooooo glad to see you all/ some of you/ new faces
I will be there!
Cerise I am glad you finally made it - now where is Rob? ... looks like I have to dig out the jeti net after all...

Poor little bear had to go into therapy - let's hope his issues get sorted.
Maybe I should treat him, like 'When did your problems start?' 'Do you live by yourself?' 'What comes to your mind when you see beer and fags?' or I just apply the cuddle therapy - very effective (on bears)!

OesterreicherII we will go for chocolate beer
Simon M I hope you made it back to your hotel safe ...but drunk.

Thank you Mrs X for putting the Voxgate on a second time at the Montagu Pyke (spelling?) and not in Wembley? Wimbledon? as I can stay on a lot longer going to work right after our fantastic do.

See you all there!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi all

Can't make the 19th Nov as I'm not in London that weekend. I'll be there in spirit though.

Hope everyone is well

Tara and Martin - hoping you're enjoying your holiday over here..

Alan

Yes! I can make this one.

I was otherwise engaged last time round. Bit of a pity really, as it's so easy to get to. Easier than Glasgow, anyway.

Roy

Sorry I won't be able to make this one.. However if anyone wants to catch me in London the weekend before, I should be at a Simple Minds meet up on Saturday 12 November, at the Hole In The Wall pub, near Waterloo Station. I will let you know before then if I can definitely make that..

Hope it isn't too long before I meet up with you again Tara.. It was lovely to catch up with you last weekend, and I trust it won't be too long before you are both back in the UK..

Ill be coming im sure Thomas will be there ill bring my mate Becket...A good mate whos a numan fan..

Martin? I know there are a few of them on this forum, but none of them are married to me.

Mr. X is called Andrew (or the other way around).

Looks like the 19th is shaping up well! Trouble: Should I bring Bobo to you so you can sort him out yourself? You might just get through to him! Dr. Allen is having a difficult time. Bobo is somewhat traumatised.

Mrs. X

Well, I can't promise to be there this time but I will try & pull out all the stops. The trouble is November & December is the busiest time for me at work. Now if Christmas was cancelled this year then not a problem!! Anyway, Fingers crossed & hopefully I will see you all there. Sorry Trouble, I'm afraid those J20's just weren't strong enough to get me drunk!!

Hi Tara
I've spoken to Mrs Metal Beat and hopefully I can make it. Love to see you all again and say goodbye to you Tara and Mr X before you leave the UK.
Regards
Peter

I just love the sound of Montagu Pyke - Phase II! It sounds like a concept album, or else an extended and interesting album track.

Thanks for getting this one off the ground too, Frau X!

Does that mean you're coming along for another round, Steve? Would be good to see you again. Like with Phil, it's been a while!

I'm certainly going to try to be there. It'll be good to see you again - how long has it been? You were hurling sofas out of upstairs windows I seem to recall . . .

I think this time I might moderate my intake of apple juice. Those photos were damnably unpretty.

Hello All
Yes, Mrs X please bring Bobo along I am sure I can handle addiction of little bears with ease.
I will sit him opposite me so I have direct eye contact and will notice straight away if he is showing any withdrawel symptoms.
Was the session with Dr Allen a one-to-one or did you sit in whilst Bobo was in therapy? Only asking in case you noticed any strange behaviour of the bear... Serious behaviour therapy for bears this is going to be.
XX

I sat in with him. It was horrible. The sight of cigarettes and beer gives him nightmares. He is in dire need of serious psychological help. Dr Allen has tried his best, but I think even he, with all his psychotherapy expertise, is at a loss. Please help him, or my mum-in-law is going to have her hands full! I can't leave her with a traumatised teddy!

Mrs. X

All baring work, i'll be there Should be bringing along Mrs. Machman as well.

Still hopeful that a couple of Friends will pop along too

I agree with Trouble, it would be in his best interests to come along, to sit in the same environment and to see that the same thing isn't necessarily going to happen. Otherwise, if kept closeted, he might become quiet, withdrawn, uncommunicative, possibly spending long, long periods simply sitting very still with a glassy stare in his eyes. Have you noticed any such signs as yet? If you have, it doesn't mean it's too late, but it could mean an awful lot more coaxing is required. Maybe a tiny personal stereo playing "Cathedral Oceans" will help him to relax into his surroundings?

A big Oops there - I was posting on another Forum at the time and used the name Andrew instead of Martin on another reply........ doh! that's what banking does to your brain! You can give me a good thump the next time you see me Tara!

Apologies again and this time .....

Tara and Andrews enjoy the rest of your trip!

Don't want to hi-jeck this thread peeps but just to remind you of the proposed Big Voxgate next March / April. Please can you all register your interest either by semding myself or Sleepy a PM or by posting on the thread in the Monument section.

Hope you all have a great day out again.

*ahem* Right... Back to topic... :rolleyes:

Good to see that several of you who were there on the 29th can make it back! I hope to meet some new people (besides Cerise) this time!

Mrs. X

You mean you don't want to meet me..?

<strong>You mean you don't want to meet me..? All I meant was that I hoped to see more people who weren't at the last Voxgate, besides you! You know...other people as well. Get it now? :p I apologise though. I can see how it could be taken the wrong way. Sorry I didn't realise this sooner.

Mrs. X

I was just messing with you!

So sorry I can't be with you this coming weekend.. I was in London yesterday funnily enough with some of the Simple Minds posse and there are a few there who are hoping to make the Voxgate next year that is already in the pipeline!! Have a few for me, such a shame we can't do the trick again with the refilling glass!!

Look forward to the next time I catch up with you all, and love to Tara and Andrew for a good journey back.. Hope it isn't too long before I catch up with you again!!

I know... :p

Mrs. X

I was at Purple Turtle on Friday at Electric Dreams lets say mmm i was abducted by three indie lass's they got me drunk an whishked me off... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="cool.gif" /> cant wait for 19th..see you all there...

I'm aiming to get there around 5-ish. May have a hot date later in the evening so DON'T LET ME DRINK TOO MUCH

As Michael Stipe once said ...

'oh no I think I said too much ...'

<img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="cool.gif" />

What hot date? With whom?

<img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="cool.gif" />

Won't be around after today until next week so best wishes to all attending and have a damned good time.

Unfortunately I shall be missing this one. I'm going to be in Manchester.

My brother, alles klar, will be there though.

Yes indeed - one of the family has to be there (when I met 1 Outside I thought he said 'worn out side' and it took a while for the penny to drop

By the way, what I meant to say earlier was that I may be meeting a friend later in the evening - us guys are just so fickle

Why is that? Does warm Lebanese fruit not mix so well with the alcohol?

OK, OK. They'd have understood me in the Black Country.

Sadly, I have to fly back to Amman today (bombings and all) so won't be able to make it again but hope you all have a great time. Hopefully I'll get a chance to meet up with some of you in the not too distant future.

Paul.

No worries, Paul. Take care, and be safe.

Sadly, the lead-in from the previous post to that line has been edited out, making the line itself a "coat" line par excellence. Then again, it was headign that way even with the lead-in in place . . . Next time, I'll quote inspiration.

I think the moment's gone, really . . .

I am double booked butw hat the hell Ultravox comes befoe the last dance.. im not going to my second fav club as i will be to wankerd otherwise..

Sorry Peeps, it looks like I'm going to have to give tomorrow a miss after all.

As of just this afternoon I've been given loads of hassle over the sale of my house and having just come back from teh estate agents am totally hacked off, pissed off and every other kind of "off". I could cheerfully beat to a pulp the prat supposedly buying my house but instead will limit myself to a stiff drink or 7 tonight. Maybe things will seem better in the morning but I doubt it at the moment.

Have a drink or 3 for me.
