Welcome to the new message board.

Its all a bit fresh at the moment but there is scope to develop so if you have any ideas for improvement or content please let me know.

Hopefully the vibe created by the reunion will keep its momentum and who knows what can happen next. Quite a few people mentioned to me that they'd be interested in more meet ups and possibly re-unions. To say it was a success is an understatement. 15 years on and it was still a reasonably full night! Like Lee said, how many other clubs can do what we did? They probably will after hearing about us.

Again thanks to EVERYONE who contributed to the reunion in whatever way they could.

Louder Hey!

Bami

Another reunion??
I'm never going out every again, god I been so fucking ill today!! LOL

Saying that I was ill before saturday, just masked it with Neat Vodka and the other!!!!

Yeah it was fantastic seeing everyone again.
And now we're done one, and there was no sign of the Scallies anywhere, given more time I reckon we could double the number, I would have brought more people but I was uncertain how full it was gonna be.

Anyway, I think we should get the wheels in motion for another one around June time??
Plenty of notice.

Anyway, I agree lets all keep in contact.

Nice one for sorting this out Bami. The hundred or so email each week was starting to do my nut on the Yahoogroups. This is much easier to navigate.

Once again my friends a fucking sweet night had by all.
Lee....stop being soft!!
:lol:

Cheers all. What does everyone think of my Clash inspired logo?

Ive read that some people have had problems registering on the site. Did everyone else get on OK?

I should be back online at home in the next day or two so I should be able to sort things out on the board a bit better.

John did you take this video all those years ago?
Most people have a dvd copy which Sully kindly posted out. I presume he got it from you. So all the same format!!
Nice one anyway.
:D

I remember that night as well Damo, I can remember jumping around in front of the camera hoping that it was going to be filmed for something on TV... dunno what it was ever for..

I also remember a night when there was some robotic metal mickey type mess walking about...
