Emergency Lack of Helicopter Party Tomorrow (Sat)

[jack]

Sonic and ceb people want to come and play with my new model helicopter, so I'm inviting people round.

When: Tomorrow (sat)
Time: 8.30 ish
Where: 66 Sherbourne Close - http://maps.google.co.uk/?q=cb41rt
Why: See

for descriptions of the toy.

We might drink something and watch some DVDs as well. Sonic and Mobbsy wanted to see the last of Firefly, and you can never have too much, but some people may also bring cheesy eighties fantasy films like Labyrinth :)

Apologies to anyone (sunflower *cuddle*) who wanted to come but to whom this is too short notice. Hopefully I will have people for DVDs next weekend as well (See http://cartesiandaemon.livejournal.com/172524.html).

Where did you get this helicopter, and, if you don't mind my asking, how much was it?

Though there may be better options, I don't know.

(In the carlton the conversation was "Where did you shop?" "The internet. Where else would I shop?")

Squeee, thanks! :-)

I am seriously considering buying myself one for my birthday.

*refixes next weekend*

I need to organise it, but I'll plan on inviting people for saturday night, and reserve crash space for you if you want to come :)

But "Refixes"? How do I parse that?

I had thought of spending Saturday night on a sofa in Ipswich, as I'm working in Suffolk during the day and going further into darkest Suffolk on Sunday to sing, and thence to Mama's birthday party, also in Suffolk.

If you are having a Sting-watch, I can drive over from work, and leave by 9am on Sunday; I'll only miss the sofa and helping with shopping/cooking for the party. Both eminently missable ;)

Ah, of course.

Unfortunately, Amazon think The Sting will take at least a week to arrive, so I'm afraid that will have to be another time. However, my Play.com DVDs all came this morning, so I do hope to have people round again on sat. I'll work out which ones I have and what people might want tomorrow. Would you consider trusting my judgement on non-sting films?
