yo tom,
Are you going to the film premier tomorrow night at bongo club? If not then is it possible I could give you the £20 at some other time? Film night starts at 7 you see.....

I could be wrong. But I'm pretty sure were not paying a deposit? So you can keep your £20 until the night.
Where's the banter?!

Cheers. I had fun.

Apologies for forgetting what meal I chose and stealing Chris's beef and for giving you all abuse for not dancing and going home. You just have to make do with the photos of Romesh pole dancing.

Where's the banter?!

Thanks for that Tom, wherever you went!
If you're not living on the edge then you're taking up too much room.

No. According to Romesh last night, Iain, Allan and Chris may also get lucky.

Do you have any other gems that I can use round the family dinner table this christmas then?!

Also are we gonna do a post-exams flat dinner? I know it was mentioned as a possibility at the committee meeting. We could do the Friday (18th December).
