I would definitely be up for 80's goth night if I can get a lift....guys? Anyone volunteering to drive? I can't get to Swindon and back on Davros.....and trains from Salisbury to Swindon are a bit complicated (no direct route).
As probably the most senior goth on here (read: elderly and decrepid), I am very into my eighties goth, as it was about 1985 that I discovered The Cure, Sisters etc. I remember asking for a Banshees album for Christmas when I was 13....that was 23 years ago now.....I even own a set of crimpers, and some of my original 80's goth clothing.....oh for crying out loud, shut me up before I get on the nostalgia bus going down memory lane.....

:)Hehe I thought you would be up for this and have all the gear. Well I intend to try make it and if needed will drive, dont drink anyway so thats no issue. All I ask is for anyone having a lift not to all fall asleep on the way home cause then I will get very sleepy cause it will be late and everyone else is asleep. I will confirm my going the week before but I do plan to, so let me know if others intend to come.

I'm really sorry but I won't be able to make it this time. With impending X-marse, Yule, 4 birthdays and various other unavoidables, the hatches must be battened down and playtime postponed 'til the New Year. I'll be thinking of you all on the 6th (mainly resenting all the fun you're having without me, lol)

Just though I'd let you all know that www.swingoth.co.uk has been updated to include details of our trip to meet you all in Salisbury and details about The Dark Fantasy Ball. Thanks for the free publicity and the lovely write up Sorry I can't make the 6th but hopefully I can come next time, and of course I'll look forward to meeting you all again at future Paint it Black nights!

Adam is the one who does all the website stuff. I will pass on you're and PA's thanks to him. It's a great shame that you won't be able to make it up here on the 6th. We're not expensive and after Paint it Black I was under the impression that you didn't miss a chance to dance.

Normally you couldn't be more right... and I'm trying very hard not to think about all the dancing I'll be missing out on. However Mr A and I have promised each other not to go out at all until the festive season arrives. Not even a little bit. We aren't too good at moderation and I want to be able to party properly at New Year (and Mr A's wages aren't paid till after the big day!) so alas no fun at all for now seems to be the only way

Everyone loves an '80's goth night so I can imagine there'll be a lot of beautiful people all crimped and preened for the occasion! Will there be pictures available afterwards?
