Southern Tek Meet
on: August 20, 2009, 23:32:39 PM
So the rents are going away for a week at the end of the month, what better excuse to have a small Southern tek meet.

Sat 29th Aug - Any time after mid-day.
Location - My place, Ferndown (On the outskirts of Bournemouth, if coming from London/Southampton/Portsmouth way its just after Ringwood) BH22 if you want a rough idea!

Food wise I can provide nibbles, home made lasagne (or if people are feeling brave, home made chinese seafood curry), or there are several VERY good takeaways in the area. Theres also a good local 2 mins walk down the road. Theres booze (one of the few perks of having alcoholic parents), and of course a 360.

I cant offer anything like the epicness of a Samcrasher as obviously its the rents house, but last time (quite a few years ago!) this wasnt a problem, even if a teddybear was sent to the heavens by rocket.

Please let me know your thoughts and if youre interested in coming, it would be good to meet up with some of you guys, I think theres a couple of regulars that either werent around back last time, or couldnt make it. Weather permitting can always try and dig out the patio heater etc too.

Maybes/attendings:
Binary Shadow
Pete
Zpyder (hah)
Clocked
Beanissocoollike

Address details to be PMd out to confirmed attendees later on in the week.

As to gameage if the evening steers in that direction (ill add the rest of party games later, cant remember what I have right now):

360: - 2 controllers so if anyone wants to bring 2 more for some 4-player goodness.
Guitar hero 3 (more controllers/other Guitar heros needed!)
I appear to have traded in Mashed, but that was a classic, might try to find it somewhere if I can find out if its 360 compatible.
Halo1-3
Call of duty

Wii (2 controllers again so more needed!):
Wii sports
Wii play
Rayman Raving Rabbids 2
Warioware smooth moves
Mario party 8
Ghost Squad
House of the dead

Ohhh, I forgot to mention the wii ><

Other things doable:

Ubercake (my record is a quindectuple chocholate cake I think...(I dunno what the correct term is for 14 forms/kinds of chocolate!))
Sushi


Obviously depending on what is decided, time will be needed to prepare :|

Its not something done lightly, believe me, its possible to have too much chocolate, one sliver of ubercake and you wont want to eat anything else for ages. Are you sure? Its been a few years since I did it so it could all go horribly wrong this time too...

From memory it had:

3x different chocolate sponge layers
3 different chocolate goulash layers
Chocolate flakes
Chocolate holly leaf mouldings
grated plain,dark,white chocolate
white chocolate drops
chocolate fingers
Chocolate fudge icing

The only burger buns worthy of any form of use are the buns you get from greasy spoon/burger vans. Ive yet to find a supermarket that sells buns of the same quality sadly.

A stottie would be very worthy. Good ones are as big as a dinner plate.
