whoops too late now….i was watching family guy half the night…it’s a somewhat ‘peaceful’ show.

Dunno. Musos perhaps, hire of hall? Bread, lights…
Enjoy. Peace, brothers. I’m outta here till Monday.

So what ‘peace’ related activities will the cover charge go towards ?

Yes, it does hold the promise of a rather strange and exotic ritual…
Sorry I won’t be able to get there either! 🙂

Sorry, can’t go – I’ll be busy watching war movies. 🙂
