I didn't really have anything figured out being as how I've never before but roughly, generally speaking like, in brief outline, that is to say in short, I thought everybody would be up for a bit of food and beer and chat and then some falling over. But this is your feckin' country, you tell me! I'm not the social director! And, just so's I get it in early, if we're doing a kitty, I'm not in charge of the money either. For a start it'll be all of your mad Euros which i'm not used to at all. Gimme's up for going late-night dancing and as I think we might be all on the same page musically, that might be an idea, I'd certainly be up for that. Probably best not to plan too much though. Medbh and her hub are in and Manuel might be there, plus maybe a surprise other Manuel (Estimulato), Bock's got a posse from Limerick, and there might be a very special guest too - much missed of late, she's still alive and well and using foul language. Ssssssh! So some hardcore definitelys and a few maybes. LaughyKate, there are some photos of last year's awards on Flickr and there were no paper-bags as far as I could see, except the ones to haul all Twenty's awards away. There were a few false moustaches, mind but you'd have to ask Bock about that. Kara, I'm only going if it's the Scots/Cali/Ore awards. And for the love of Holy Stuff won't you get help for that shoe obsession you've got going on there? Kim, sounds like a fab idea adn if I were in Scotland I'd help put such an awards together but I'm not. The Scottish blogging community doesn't seem that cohesive though. I'm not sure whether this would work to make it more so or whether it would need to become more so <i>before</i> awards could be attempted. Rand', I had to make my own. Sea Dreams, hellos and welcomes to you, traditionally a hundred thousand of them. I was crouching outside when you and your brother made it up and I nicked it for my own, right then and there because I have a black soul and that's what black souls do. Snifflie, you're a darling daftie but you wouldn't be mocking my accent there now, would you? I've being trying to cut down my use of the "wee" to emergencies only, when things are very very tiny indeed and I've exhausted small, miniscule, Lilliputian etc. Vincent, and a whole heap of welcomes to you too. I love you because you called me Fryesque. Tell me, are you married at all? I am but my husband has never called me Fryesque so I'm divorcing him tomorrow now I've found a bloke who will. Conan, which Hebridean mists in particular? We have all different sorts. It's a grainy sort in the Uists. Who knows what these filthy <i>Inner</i> Hebrideans have. Down Barra way it's a light tickly mist, whilst up in Lewis and Harris our mists tend towards the driving rain kind. To all who said lovely things about me nommo and said to let it stand, thank-you sincerely, you make me goofy happy, you do. But the latest post should help explain that even a cousin Celt like myself has plenty i don't yet know about the Irish which sets me apart from all of you and means I'd still be an imposter if I let me nommo stand. Cheers, you lovelys, though, very very cheers. Eolai, Bock, Sneezy, Sniffly, Devin, and Conan, look to your emails in the coming week or so.

I've no doubt we are kin, kithing couthins, even! As Snagglepuss might say. Plus it's a leap year, so let the noms stand!

Aw shucks. On the sheep blog thing, you do know that them maricans don't like sheep, seen the films I did. Something 'bout weak roots on the grass. Again, glad you were nominated, but I do like your Fryesque 'no thank you'. And there we were thinking that we could convert you to the dark side. Aw shucks.

What a silly question! Doing what all Irish folk, even Hebridean-Irish, do on Friday nights. The real question is where are we doing it Friday night?
