laine
Hello, i’ll be there – my first ever. Exciting! Is it quite obvious who you are? ๐
ewebber
@laine we look a bit like this http://www.flickr.com/groups/twee8/ and @kuxi will probably bring some signs that look like this:
“
laine

kuxi

stephenhignell
Fine ales and the jolly #twee8 ers will be the perfect cap to the day – see you fine folks Weds!”
katybeale
OMG. That’s like NORTH of the borough. *shudder*

Looking forward to it and even have the following day off. Although you’re splitting my loyalties between fine Hackney folk and Champion’s League football. Here’s hoping it will be a rubbish game and I’ll watch the home leg which will be a 5-5 thriller. I might be one of those annoying people that keeps checking footy scores on the iPhone!In other news I am now a permanent, long-term E5 resident, barring a house deal falling through, so here’s to many more #Twee8s.”
ewebber
@patricksmithjournalist you’ll look right out of place constantly checking your phone.. or notyay, congrats on the flat ๐
patricksmithjournalist
Thanks – #twee8 The Dinner Party Edition is coming soon…. (depending on how many people I can fit in…)”

My diary has just informed me that I have a prior babysitting engagement on wednesday sarf of the river. What a muppet.
ewebber
Sarf – there be monsters down sarf
janice
i was down sarf friday. not a patch on norf is all i can say ๐
philsheard
Sounds good. Across the road from my first London flat an’ all, nice trip down memory lane. Be careful of the Erdinger, that one creeps up on you…
alexpink
@philsheard I bet the Jolly butchers wasn’t so jolly when you first moved there!
philsheard
@alexpink yeah, it’s the one on the corner right? it was a 50/50 fight between it’s customers and the sirens over who could make the most noise at 3am each weekend
lovelyzoo
Cheers for making me welcome. Er, did I leave a pair of headphones?
ewebber
@lovelyzoo I have your headphones, will bring them to the next #twee8“
ewebber
Lots of fun had last night, the roll call looks something like this: @hackneye @alexpink @kuxi @patricksmithjournalist @lovelyzoo @monkchips @3djamie @stephenhignell @philsheard @laine @9600 @tamlyn @farez @gazcarr @marty21 @ewebberDid I miss anyone?
lovelyzoo
@ewebber cheers, see you then.
3djamie
Good to see you all..Btw.. am I missing something or do you really have to go to site to reply on here?
philsheard
Great #twee8 last night – good choice of pub and good turnout. nice to meet some new faces too.back on home turf @ Pembury next month or does the road trip continue?”
ewebber
look everyone we now have @tamlyn on yeah! Hackney ๐
stephenhignell
I’ll second that @philsheard, great seeing everyone!
ewebber
@philsheard I dunno about the next venue, let’s leave it to the vote
3djamie
next one is going to be tricky to beat, last nights venue was beer heaven.
patricksmithjournalist
Too much beer, too little time. It’s a gem of a pub.I know I’m jumping the gun, but think how amazing it will be to have #twee8 in the new White Hart (formerly Chimes on Lower Clapton Rd) once @FiAntic has refurbished it!”
ewebber
Hell yeah! I expect a yeah! Hackney party to open the White Hart ๐
marty21
Pah! missed out on the roll call ๐ good night, spoke to some new people – and i have now mended kuxi’s broken heart by following him on twitter (something I had scandalously forgot to do before)
ewebber
Sorry @marty21 I have added you. I blame my ale addled brain this morning
kuxi
and with that my qi is flowing once again
