Well, Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat, so Poptimism is coming for its FIRST EVER CHRISTMAS PARTY! Yes, you read it right, all our previous venues kicked us out before Christmas came round. But the nice people at the Union Tavern, Kings Cross Road love Christmas as much as we do and are letting us party like its seventeen days before!
So 7-late (sometimes its midnight, sometimes it is later), dancing, drinking, guest DJ's - no Tom so it me and Carsmile in charge, and a few Christmas record along with the records of the year and BOW WOW WOW being played, live!
Friday: December 8th
Union Tavern: http://www.fancyapint.com/main_site/thepubs/pub946.html
There may be a free guest DJ slot too (as Tom's baby will be preventing his attendance) which we will be selling for charity on EBAY! Watch This Thread.

We're expecting Gary Jules Ewing to be born at some point in the next couple of weeks.

We await the advent of J J Barrie Ewing with no little awe.
Can't do Hogmanay as I shall be in Scotland (appropriately). Two rooms of mayhem, though. What about a Poptimism chillout room? Indeed, did anything come of that idea of Poptimism chillout Sunday afternoons with music played for listening as opposed to dancing?

I will actually be able to come to this, I think!

The due date (or should I say, Jules date) is Thursday, but Ewings and punctuality rarely mix. Watch the ILX parenting thread for an announcement, I guess.
This Xmas party will be AWESOME, and the New Year do even more so.
I am still keen on the Poptimism Chillout idea but have been far too lazy to actually try and do anything about it.

For a moment I got TEH PH34R!!! because I thought this was the same day as the Shimuras/Pamphlet Xmas party, but no, phew, that is on the 6th.
I shall try to attend, depending on my sisX0r/teh St00ges.
