| | Re: Fête du vin | Quote: | |  | | | Ok, so none of you came, and you missed out! It was great, really, really enjoyable. Try and make it to the next one.  | | | | | So sorry we didn't make it either. The cat had an accident and we had to take her to the vet. Not easy to do on a Saturday and very expensive.
Glad you had a good time. We were looking forward to seeing you play and wouldn't even have had to drive so could have enjoyed the odd glass of wine or two. (hopefully without falling in the canal on the way home)

I turned up here, and there wasn't sight nor sound of you, or any kind of event taking place anywhere - wine drinking, musical or otherwise.
I waited and waited - sold my horn for a tenner, had an ice cream in a cornet, and then had a game of Top Trump ets.
Eventually gave up and went home.

| | Re: Fête du vin | Quote: | |  | | | I am glad you had a good time, wine festivals can be real fun!
Yes I am sorry to let you down, I sent you an SMS at 8pm.
I was invited to the Dutch club's celebration, and the 1,5 hour train journey to Cressier was not very attractive!
The problem with wine and beer festivals is that you cannot drink and drive!
Please keep posting, and I will keep on looking for a teatotal driver!
I have organised 2 things on EF and nobody came, so I do know the feeling! | | | | | That's ok, I wasn't abandoned or anything. One of my work colleagues came with some friends, then when they left I hung out with the other band members. Sorry, I did get your text (right in the middle of my delicious horseburger dinner arriving... I meant to text back!).
As far as going back in the middle of the night goes... I didn't go home until yesterday afternoon!

I also appreciated the brass jokes. |
