Tourney: Halloween Throw-in Tourney! - 31.10.09

arm-wrestling, lezz-offs, that weird gyrating love-fest at the bar, cock-based shenanigans...

Pictures or it didn't happen.

And huge hugs and congratulations to Ali and Jo! xx

I would've thought you'd seen enough of that where you are B? ;-)

ha!

Until the kitchen? What the fuck does that mean?

Dan thanks for the tourney and the team name of GASH (Gabes Adam joSH)
gabes you set me up like no other, it was really easy to be your teammate

northgate is awesome and I think we are even welcome back so that is cool. Thanks agata for taking me for vegan brunch- I was the lone Angel in the group. Ps I forgot to get your contact info for when I am in Paris in a couple weeks.

Em thanks for giving me a place to stay. Your home is amazing btw.

Great to have such an amazing collective of people only a couple hours away. I look forward to every London event!

josh, welcome anytime dude, great playing with you, and if Em fails to offer you a bed, you're welcome to crash at mine, just holler.

northgate hair of the dog (that bit me) FTW.

Yesterday was polo. It embodied everything that I love about playing polo and hanging out with everyone.

+1, it was true polo.

Northgate was not polo.

The barman's account was, 'I didn't know where to look, there were people kissing other people, hands down pants, they needed to leave or we needed a new licence'.

I miss that part!

the list of people who snogged someone in particular is quite impressive.

who got so lucky g?

I miss that part!

i missed it too, thank god.

the barman looked scarred. polo-love went too far.

brndn, ask the barman.

he seemed to be pretty shaken by the whole experience, even 24 hours later.

Ray, how you managed to pour nearly an entire bottle of gin and Midori into that punch and it didn't taste the slightest bit alcoholic was amazing but very dangerous!

Congrats Jo & Ali! You guys definitely need to come to our forum wedding ride in Jan! It gonna be a brilliant day! Woo Hoo, here's to getting hitched!

At least he was not in the middle of the circle of shame.
I miss childline.

i think most of the people who saw the group hug cough are scarred for life.
James' bent mallety has taken honorary place on display at Northgate now. AND they used our broom to sweep the place after the antics last night - the world is in perfect balance.

confirmation ray got my scalp sprayed more than my hair. it took 3 shampoos to get clean :D

beginnings of a set here (flickr uploader crashed halfway through)
Rest will be up this evening. Not too many polo action shots but good memories of a great day

HA!

By the way B, Tom looked well fit with make up on. Don't let him loose around us two looking like that again ha ha.

Hey the circle of love was a great end to a great day. I only feel bad for the barman oops!!! Worst thing is Ali left her card in the Northgate so she's got to go collect it, i just hope he doesn't recognize the circle of love individuals.
Embrace the love people!!!!

cool photos Rob

Despite sleeping through the shuffle cos im a lazy bastard, had an awesome afternoon hanging out and watching some great/horrifying Polo :) thanks for organising/hosting it Dan.

The Northgate was silly. very silly. and it sounds like it got far sillier after i left. you guys rock :) Polo Love.

EDIT: almost forgot, Congratulations Ali and Jo! Wedding Tourney FTW!

Pretty sure the images will be permanently burned into his mind.. the mistake was not getting the bartenders drunk and/or involved

Aw, Tom is so hot either way!

Reading this thread and seeing all the pictures makes me love and miss London polo.

rest of the pics are now up - due to wanting to keep a small element of decency to the whole affair I haven't uploaded them all, hehe…
