2014 Summer Picnic

Bugger- that's you and Ringdrotten going to be absent- maybe I should move it back another week to the first weekend of August?

yeah, please do that

Easily enough done- there's just all the catering, the band, the hiring of the park at extortionate rates from Eldo, the super large dog poop bags for Huan- yeah rearranging all that will surely annoy Pure Publications, so I'll happily move it forward a week (and nothing to do with me having more time to prepare the damn thing!)

btw, when was it originally set?

So, August 2nd? Not sure if we have reached home, but being back in Norway makes it easier at least.

Was originally set for the 26 of this month- but other available dates are- 2nd or 9th of August.

I will be busier towards the end of August so wont have time to prepare everything I want to for it if its later (and no, pushing the date back doesn't give me longer to prepare, it gives me longer to put off starting!   )

2nd is better for me if I am to drop by. Will be off on the 11th and weekend of 9th will be for packing.

The 2nd is better for me as well. I'll be at Otakon from the afternoon of August 7 until the afternoon of August 10, and I leave for a week of camping on August 13.

i don't have a life so i'm ok with both..

Week of camping Eldo? Over my birthday?

I'm away too so lucky this time.

Aww, if I'd realized, I would have made plans to be around to wish you a happy one.

We're going to a state park in Delaware that is right on the ocean.  It used to be a military base and there are these giant concrete watchtowers from World War II that they built to keep an eye out for German submarines that might try to sneak up the Delaware Bay to target the naval installations Philadelphia.  (None ever did.)  Nowadays it has a campground that's about five minutes from the beach by bike. The whole park is a short drive away from Rehoboth Beach, which has a nice little boardwalk and assorted amenities.

Ok, barring further objections (  ) the picnic will commence on August 2nd, when the pubs open.

when does the pubs open? 

(also does anyone know where i can download mediahint again without paying? or.... i might have to pay?)

Goodgood. I'm sure me and Norc don't want to be the only ones wearing bunad.   

what, BUnad? we have to be that formal?

What, and have us all miss the chance of seeing Benedict in a bunad?  

Though, joking aside, bunad might not be the most practical attire on the third of August, agreed. *melts*

nah, it's fine here... it's just starting to snow (JOKING WE DON'T HAVE SNOW IN AUGUST, LIKE RARELY, THAT HAPPENED ONCE OK, AUGUST IS THE ONLY MONTH WHERE THERE IS NO SNOW ON THE TROMSDALSTINDEN, WELL OR MAYBE THAT'S SEPTEMBER, WE DON'T HAVE SNOW THEN, ONLY ONCE WE HAD SNOW IN EVERY MONTH OF THE YEAR BUT NOT THIS YEAR)

So what you are really saying is, it snows all year round.

Ok once, once that lasted all year.   

Wow, are we talking about the weather? Well, now I properly fell like I'm back.   

And you brought it up. That's sweet.  

no, not lasteed, it just snowed once or twice during each of the 12 months of that year.



winter is coming bitches, be fucking prepared

So it snowed every month for a year?- so it snowed all year.
