A "tradition" started by me and KfW2 is an annual day out to the local Xmas market. They're usually good fun and we get a good crowd out (though we usually arrange them for ourselves and anyone extra showing up is a bonus).
Some memories from past Xmas days out are FP meeting SG for the first time, KfW2 and her hubby falling out and KfW2 leaving me a really sweet, albeit very drunken, voicemail on her way home.
This year, arranging it has been a pain in the ass. I've put out plenty of suggestions, but no-one replies, until it's decided.
Ruuude: "When's everyone available?"
No one says anything.
Ruuude: "Right. 15th December then?"
S: "Can't do that date."
FP: "Can't do that date."
Ruuude: *Lists dates I am unavailable*
No one says anything.
Ruuude: "What about doing an evening instead? We can meet after work?"
KfW2: "That suits me. I can do Wednesdays or Thursdays"
Ruuude: "OK, let's do a Thursday. I can take a Friday off for a long weekend."
No one says anything.
Sigh. GM and S are the prime candidates for this.
