Still trying to organize party for Saturday night. I haven't worked out the time difference problem. Should we have 2 parties? Or just let the party start at 2 pm in the U.S. so for the British it will be 7 pm? Because if we start at 7 pm, U.S. Eastern Time, it will already be like midnight in the UK. I really hadn't taken that into consideration, I'm afraid. Perhaps the pub can just be open and decorated and people can stop by when they feel like it. That won't be the same though. Is it just not workable? Never say never! We need to have a party people!

Holy crap! Start drinking at 2 in the afternoon.... hmmm..... you just tell me what time to be there and I'll be there!
ReplyDeleteNever say never!
ReplyDelete"never"
Okay. Well, thank you all for your tremendous overwhelming and helpful input.
ReplyDelete"The Party" will begin at 2 PM U.S. EDT (7 PM GMT).
The pub will be open at that time for all regardless of where you live. And will continue until the early morning hours for Americans (All night long until sunrise for Brits.)
You haven't given the working British population time to reply. Not everyone rushes to the Slap & Tickle first thing in the morning you know.
ReplyDeleteSome of us don't rush at all. Hi max honey.
ReplyDeletePetra, I don't know what else to do. It's Saturday. Come when you can. Come as often as you can. Come as long as you can. That would be my only advice. :)
ReplyDeleteDebbie, thank you for reminding me that I am not the boss here. I needed that. :)
Max, shut up. You don't get to decide.
Sheila - You're right of course. It never occured to me that some Brits work. So....that is why the comments come later, then? But there is really nothing to decide. Time zones are something we can't change. And I am not going to fly you all over here. So. What else? Start early, stay late. :)
ettarose, you can say that again. Some of you hardly move at all. Just be there S. :)
3 o'clock my time.. hmm I will try to be here at least for the kickoff and check in from time to time. :)
ReplyDeleteChica - Worse than that. Noon our time. 2 Eastern. Gah! Like you said, it is going on for a long time, we can just check in from time to time, right? :
ReplyDeleteWell I'll be here, that's a promise
ReplyDeleteYeah well I had just woke up, time zones involve the math skills I don't have that early in the morning.. lmao
ReplyDeleteCaroline, that is really great. I am looking forward to the party. Come early, stay late, drink up, party hardy, and lose whatever. That's what Candygirl always says. I don't really understand her. :)
ReplyDeleteChica, it is all messed up. Just come when you can, please. It will all work out. :)
ReplyDelete"Debbie, thank you for reminding me that I am not the boss here. I needed that. :)"
ReplyDeleteyour pleasure!
