[QUOTE=Cypher_09;24439615]LUHG and coffee are you two definitely coming if we move it a week back or not?[/QUOTE] Aye, although I start uni in september so I have no clue what I will be doing in the coming months but as it stands, yes I will be coming.
Oh and there's these awesome guys that paint themselves white and [I]try[/I] to stand still, but they end up smiling and waving at everyone. Then there's bird whistle man who everybody wants to kill, but he hasn't been out and about for a few months. Then there's blind guitar guy on Market Street who brings his dog. Then there's more painted people.

[QUOTE=Cypher_09;24439615]LUHG and coffee are you two definitely coming if we move it a week back or not?[/QUOTE] If it's at the weekend then I can come definitely. [editline]07:05PM[/editline] LUHG! stop breaking my auto merge, the poor thing's sat there crying
