pool party poll

[ajva]

Well, the good news is I have taken the bull by the horns and booked a pool party for Saturday 31st January 2004. There will be other celebrations too, of course, if you don't want to come swimming.

details:
Date: Saturday 31st January 2004
Time: 5pm-7pm (first hour in the pool, second hour standing around eating cakes).
Venue: Leyton Leisure Lagoon (has a big flume - yay!)

Now, I have provisionally booked for 20 people, but I suspect there might be a greater number interested, given the popularity of the option in my previous poll. I need to know how many people are planning to come, because I need to tell the venue. Two reasons: sometimes they have 2 parties running in parallel, so there are space-planning issues; secondly, charges vary according to numbers of guests attending. I'd like to have a good idea what sort of numbers we're looking at, so I'd be grateful if you'd all rsvp via this poll.

Will you actually be coming? Please don't vote yes unless you think you really will be. If you're planning to bring other people (eg real kids) please comment and let me know how many. Don't fret if you have to drop out later on; I just need a good idea.

Thank you!

Expect to be bringing small baby. I'm sure she'll love it.

Sadly I'll be on the wrong side of the planet at the time.

I'd like to bring adelpha, if I can persuade him that he'll enjoy it.

Yeah yeah yeah! I get to show of my muscular and Australian-sun-tanned body! And swim and chuck children around (hopefully).

But - only one hour in the pool? I'm sure we can eat cake at your place afterwards?

Ooh - and babies love swimming. Excellent idea to bring Holly.

No problem. :o)

Not my decision, I'm afraid. There is a standard format for Pool Parties. I can always ask if they'll let us stay longer in the pool but I can't be arsed as yet. I think an hour would be long enough for a lot of people, though. Especially since Leyton Leisure Lagoon is pretty heavily chlorinated.

There will probably be some sort of gathering at mine afterwards, but it might be invite-only - we'll see (I'm still contemplating this). The pool party's open to everyone, though.

I'm ticking YES PLEASE because I'd love to come and I'm hopefully not going to be still working at Budgens by then...I imagine that 'im indoors will come with me...

Have ticked 'no' for reasons previously stated.

I'll be there... might have to find a pair of swimming shorts as its been a while since I have been near water.

Haven't been down a flume in years - count me in!
Will check with Conflux but given his allergy to chlorine it's unlikely (don't want him throwing up!)
