Bax Night?

Post by Barry Craigie »

Anyone on the forum going to Bax night? Just suggested a reunion for all those on here, and an excuse to drink some wife beater and reminisce about Steve Eason and the others...

I think there will also be a group of slightly older Old Blues coming this year too! :)

Oi !!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's ageist, Plum !

Anyway, it'll take me and Richard all our time to keep you lot in order.

A thought has crossed my mind. (A rare event in this day and age !)

One would assume that the School Office monitor this site, so the 'powers-that-be' must be well aware there will be a few interlopers attending the NON OLD BLUES, Retreat !

We must watch out for the guard dogs when crossing the check-point.

Oh, and in all fairness I should point out that July 9th. is also the date of the 3rd. and final New Zealand vs. Lions test.

Some of us may well have been in the pub since around 07.30.

And then in the pub until 11pm which could be 15.5 hours! LOL

Perhaps a "carry-out" might be in order for the retreat itself.... :roll:

Do you think we should apply for block-booking tickets ?

I was thinking of getting to the Bax early and putting some towels over the best seats...

Looking at 'The Bax' thread, it seems quite a few OB's intend attending !

Maybe the orrifice will get the message.

Possibly but many recent old blues (50 - 100) will be at the Bax anyway! :)

I don't know if that's the intent but in previous years I have recognised a large number of Old Blues at the Retreat!
