SGUK 10th Anniversary

Post by Damien »

The [google]11th of July 2010[/google] will mark the 10th anniversary of the noe defunct sub-section of the Squaregamer community known as [google]SGUK[/google].
To celebrate, we're attempting to unite as many followers of Bob The Sword as possible for a weekend of DDR (Euromix 1), food (McDonald's), pubs (Cockneys died ;(), and dredging up injokes that have long fallen into obscurity.
As none of the "SGUKers" besides myself (and Calbrena, who's half way round the world so can't come) post on these message forums any more, this'll be a particularly fun thread!

So yeah 11th July, shove that shit in your delightful owl clocks (dairies)!

I'll get the train into London.

Is there a good place to meet? Perhaps somewhere that plays Shania Twain music?

I was watching a Y2G video last night where we were pirating a game that we'd just paid £45 for (second hand) and thought we were being really clever.

unfortunately only in spirit. Much like Reese witherspoon in "just like heaven", minus the coma! You may think I've just spoilt something but really I haven't.

If you actually do think you're seeing me follow you around I suggest you seek psychological help. Or that you stop being racist and realize it's Lap.

By the way, Boneman and Stephi had a baby girl yesterday afternoon. Spooky that the first time I've contacted them in years was a few hours before the most important time of their lives so far :o

I had considered that, but I couldn't be sure. There's too many SGUK people who post infrequently or never for me to be sure he was even someone I knew of at all (of course the post count should have tipped me off on that score at least).

That was some Scottish guy who had an Edea icon back then, that's all I remember :p
That and by the time I arrived to the SGUK5 party he was already drunk and Kat tucked him into bed :D

Eric, I think the first two coins are Penny and Lenny, after that I can't remember? :o

Can't join the fun tomorrow, working in Doha until the 2nd of August. Hoping to see you guys at Blue Party next month though ^^

Oh and grats to Boneman and Stephi :D

Can't remember. Doubt anybody other than maybe myself is pushing the top limit though.
