Guys, hate to say it but I think I have to cancel.

I have two assignments left to do for next week, but they're both pretty horrible and they're both worth quite a bit of the final mark. It's possible that I could do both and attend the meet up, but one of them is group work and frankly I don't trust the other people in my group to pull their weight...so basically I'll probably have to do the entire group project myself.

I'd really like to attend but these last two assignments aren't looking good. What's annoying is they're not the "I don't understand" kind of bad, they're the "that's an incredibly stupid assignment" kind of bad (you can even check them out if you want... http://www.cs.kent.ac.uk/teaching/05/modules/CO/3/21/assessments/Assessment1.doc parts 1 and 3).

Let's just assume I'm not going, and I'll let you know if that changes (and arrange something with Swifty...don't want to mess joolz about any more than I already have).

No probs dude. Just give me a shout and I will play the 'Is that one Awe?' guessing game on the platform.

Just one thought tho..... Would a pub table filled with computer people help this assignment not go a bit better?

 :D

Not a problem Awe mate.  Drop me a line if you need a lift and I'll call you on your mobile to arrange a time.  Otherwise we may / may not see you on Saturday, though good point from young Swifty...your assignments will certainly be, err, unique if we do them as a collective down The Plough  ;D

Subject matter: Forlorn Hope

What does the organisation do?
Get together, play games, drink beer/lager, insult Swifty

What human activity system within the organization does the IS support?
Hmm... well our forum supports us in anti Swifty demonstrations guild meetings down the pub

What data does the IS gather?
We know your IP address, your email.....

What processing is done by the IS to turn data into information?
Pardon?

What information does the IS distribute?
None, it's all ours... Hands off.... Mine.... Mine... Mine Mine mine mine (gotta have a Finding Nemo moment)

Who uses the information that is produced?
Forum admins use it to frame Swifty make sure everyone is nice to each other

How and where is technology used?
Homes, workplaces, universities....



Now imagine that "on beer" down the pub.....

First off... ZM. you are a Bitch. Not quite on my level, but getting there.

Second:- How about I bring the questions, a dictophone and then we get drunk and discuss it. You can even call it research if you like.

Third:- Has anyone seen how many stars I have? Where did I get all those from?

Fourth:- Seriously dude, you're a bitch

C'mon guys, lay off Awe. I'm sure he'd rather come down than finish a project.

 Instead here's a picture of what Swifty'll look like after the drinks ;)

...A Tanker says, "Stay here while I distract them with my rock hard (granite) body."
...A Brute says, "Stay here while I let them kill me so I can kill them faster!"

More stars = More posts ----- It means I forgot to turn off counting your posts  ;)

Of course if this is a complaint I could always zero it for you? ;D I mean you're actually at the maximum right now, so you get the fun of collecting them all again! ;D How's that sound? ;D

(of course myself and Naam don't go in for collecting those wee diddly little things... we have big stars... ::) but then we pwn this board)

Dont drink Vodka. Your Google-Fu has failed you, Old-starting-to-smell-kinda-funky-one.


yay! Carthis is coming. Dude can you revert to Alex for the night? or they will be another Jon to get confused about. I get confused alot lately.

I love my stars as they are thank you, but thank you for informing me how it works. Soon I will need my 2nd 'Forum Haxxor' badge :)

And please leave me alone for a bit. Feeling a bit low as I will not be joining you all for the CoV launch.  :'( Need to go console myself with a big bowl of Ice-cream



and maybe a spot of baby eating.

Guys, I got that essay done quicker than I expected to - it was very painful though. I sent a message to joolz asking if a lift is still possible - Canterbury East station is a lot closer than the West one you see :P

So hopefully if it's still possible and if I manage to be competent enough to get on the right train (so that's about a 50/50 chance) I'll see you all there. For easy identification I will be wearing the following purple shirt and bandana. It would of course make it even easier if I dressed up in electricity-patterned purple and yellow spandex but unfortunately I don't have the hood and cape to go with it :P

Hopefully see you guys tomorrow.

Good to hear and we'll see you tomorrow ;D

If you check the Members Only section Joolz has his Mobile number posted. But it's easy enough to spot a Ginger in a Discovery

Yeah it's about the only thing that can see and be seen over the hedges alongside all those twisty winding lanes round Joolz' neck of the woods.... ;D

 :D  Oh you guys   ;D

I've sent a reply to Awe and advised him to get either the 12:49 or 13:21 from Canterbury East, which should get him into Sittinbourne at 13:16 or 13:46...providing SE Trains don't run their usual bollox service.

Consequently we'll be with you classy people in deepest Surrey approx 45 mins later...or sooner if I engage warp drive.

Later dahhlings...

Yet another development in the saga:

Turns out I got mixed up about the train stations and I'm actually closer to Canterbury West than I am to Canterbury East. So I'm going with the Swifty plan instead if I can get hold of him in time.

You may all give me a thwap round the back of the head for being incompetent if I get there :P
