* Wolverhampton's 1st Saturday Meet * 28th November 8pm+ * Yew Tree Pub, Merridale,WV30AD * Posted: 11/26/2009 5:06:15 AM
Wondering what capacity the place has and how big is the car park is? I'll be taking a mate with me and presume others will too, so there could be a few of us with any luck so will the venue be big enough to hold us all? The venue is big enough to fit us all in the lounge and there is plenty of space to park at the pub and also the roadside as it is a cul-de-sac road that the pub is in just off the main road. Also a reminder that this pub is The Yew Tree, in Oak Street, Merridale just up the road from the old Eye Infirmary as you go through Chapel Ash towards Bantock Park / Bradmore, there is a pelican crossing just before you need to turn left into Oak Street as the pub is just off the main Merridale Road. Lets see this event top one hundred people by the weekend I think we will be very close to that figure by Saturday night 81 signed up SO FAR still time to add your name and join us there This is the link to the firstpage of this thread to sign up to attend: http://forums.plentyoffish.com/datingPosts13348461.aspx

Great to see lots more signed up to this event, and thanks to all those promoting it on their profiles. Please don't be scared of coming on your own, there will be others coming along in the same boat on Saturday night too. Often blokes end up stood at the bar nattering about cars the boxing or the footie. If we know people are coming alone and they email to tell us before the event then we introduce people to others. It's like being out for a night with your mates really, just you have never met them before. Of course to get friendly with a member of the opposite sex, you do have to go and talk to them too For those asking for directions google the postcode WV3 0AD then sign up and see you there

Had a few emails about not being able to sign up to events : You need to read all the meet night details at the top of the first page on this thread. Then scroll down until you reach the top row of members pictures. Just above them is a clickable button that says : Sign up to this party [login first] Click on that button and refresh the page to see if your picture appears in with the members pictures that are already signed up to this event. If your picture is not there you might need to log into the forums part of the plentyoffish site with your username and password. To do this click on the [log in] button on the top right hand side of the page your now looking at and enter your details when prompted. Scroll back down the event page and click the sign up button just above the row of member's photos . Refresh the event page and your picture should be there along with others attending the event.

Had a few emails asking me so I'm just confirming that we do have the lounge side of the venue to just us POF members. If you are attending this event it is important you sign up so we can keep a count on numbers which will then be passed on to the landlord just in case he needs extra bar staff on the night, so please don't leave this to the last minute. If your worried about attend this event alone, don't be, I can assure you it won't feel like you've just entered the billy no mates corner as we all look forward to meeting newbies, you'll all be welcomed & once I have introduced you to a few members you'll be either socialising or joining in with the fun so it will be just like a night out with a great circle of friends

UB40 Tribute Night, Wolverhampton ~ Friday 20th November ~ Pictures & Comments Posted: 11/21/2009 5:06:37 AM
Firstly I want to say a huge thank you to everyone who supported this event and well done to Thomas5059 and Sweetest Feeling for taking over as host and co - hosts for the UB40 tribute night. Really gutted I could not make it as I had been looking forward to this event for a long time. But I was too poorly to attend after being unwell all afternoon and went to bed From all accounts it was packed out in The Swan last night, a fantastic turn out with some of the best people in attendance. Great to hear that the tribute act were on top form last night and played a good variety of tunes from way back to present day. I was also told you wouldn't let them leave the stage and they sung a few more tunes after they had finished the set which is good to hear The balloon was left on the table all night and various members from POF were sat there all night just incase people couldn't find the hosts. Thank you to everyone for your support to the venue and the staff for letting us meet there and I hope to see you at our next events soon. I have been sent a few pictures to upload of the act, and as you will see from the pictures it would have been impossible to take ones of just members there last night.

This is very late notice I know but I am unable to be there tonight now as I have been really unwell this afternoon which has resulted in me being sent home from work I apologise but sometimes real life gets in the way! The meet is still going ahead and the others signed up will be there tonight for this event Talset (aka Thomas5059) will be taking over hosting tonight with a few others helping him as he is my co - host already for this event. I hope you all have a good night and see you next Saturday at The Yew Tree meet.

Still time to "Come out to Play" with us tonight, to have a little "Red Red Wine" (or a few beers) and do some "Groovin" with us A reminder again that us hosts - myself and Thomas5059 (wasTalset50) will have no name badges I just know someone will mail me tomorrow and say I couldn't find any of you in there last night which is why I have put so many reminders about it ! But we will have a 10" purple foil balloon with the words on it, on OUR table in there, which will be in the centre of the table so you need to look for that to find us in The Swan. If you are in any doubt please ask one of the bar staff where we are and they will point us out to you Fingers crossed this rain stops and we have a great night, it your thinking of coming along just do it, See you all tonight

Only a couple more until this UB40 tribute night takes place on Friday night, there is still plenty of time to sign up and come along to the Swan in Tettenhall to join us.. don't be shy we will make you welcome. LOVE UB40, shame your so far away or i would have been there!! Shame your not a little nearer Loul but maybe one day you can cross the border to sunny Wolverhampton Still will see you all for NYE hopefully, so save some of your partying for that please For those that don't read the mass party emails sent via the site. There is a POF meet night taking place on New Years Eve at Flares Nightclub on Broad Street in Birmingham. You MUST sign up on the NYE thread if you want to get into the venue as the sign up list means you get free entry into it and Loul has asked that people take a maximum of 3 guests.

Hope you had a good weekend and your all looking forward to Friday night and seeing the UB40 tribute act with us Important: The tribute nights at The Swan in Tettenhall are very popular so to ensure we can get some seats and a table in there we will be meeting up in there at 8pm. We will have a 'Happy Birthday' purple coloured large foil balloon on our table in The Swan as we will have NO name badges on as this event is open to the public as well. The balloon will be used as a visual marker to identify who we are in there to other POF members. It is YOUR responsibility to come and find us in there. Myself and Talset will be there so please come and find us.. A REMINDER OF OTHER WOLVERHAMPTON MEETS Saturday 28th November - P.O.F.

Pierro78 hello there i would like to come over, is there anything i need to do or can i just turn up? All anyone needs to do who is attending this event is sign up on this thread and come along on Saturday the 28th. The lounge side of the venue is going to be only for POF members so I will have a list to ensure that we are the only ones in there on the night. If anyone has guests can you let me know as I need to let the venue know a rough idea of numbers so they have enough bar staff to cope

As pheonix** says : if anyone needs some company for the event then drop me an email i'll be going anyway but its nice to go as a pair or a group Those who ask on the thread to share lifts or taxis can you review your mail restrictions if you want to receive mail from members who can offer them. I can't mail a few people who wanted to share in order to come to their first meet. Sorry if you have not had a message from me, I have tried but I am the wrong sex or too old

Thank you all those who came out and braved the cold weather last night and joined us at The Swan for our monthly karaoke night. Thanks to GliderGirl for helping me by taking the pictures and to all those regulars who helped mingling with the new people who came to their first event. Great to see so many new faces and the regulars all having fun and some great singers once again. I didn't get to take many pictures as I was too busy introducing all the new folks as well, so if anyone has any they that they would like to be put up please let me know. The details for the next few events I am hosting (or co hosting) are below. These events start now at 8pm due to my work schedule changing. Click on the links to be taken directly to each event page and I hope to see you all again soon.

You can catch one of 2 buses to the venue from Wolverhampton bus station which is two minutes from the train station The 543 bus goes from stand Q The 513 bus goes from stand P The buses drop you on Merridale Rd which from Wolverhampton goes towards Bantock Park / Bradmore. Ask the bus driver for with where to get off if you need it. The bus stops just past Oak Street on the left hand side of the road. You need to get off the bus and walk back on yourself to the corner of Oak Street at it's junction with Merridale Road opposite you there will be a children's day nursey. You need to turn right at the junction and the Yew Tree pub is less than a two minute walk up Oak Street

Just to let you know that this meet night is still going ahead the original host told the events moderator a few days ago he was unable to due to other commitments. So a few of us are going to help out so that we can continue with it on the same date and place. So keep signing up and we will see you all there on the 28th Sam

If anyone needs a hotel for this meet night, then the Travelodge on Waterloo Rd currently has rooms for £32 a night (subject to change) A private hire taxi to The Yew Tree Pub from Wolverhampton train station (not in a black cab) would be approx £3.50.

Other parents badly behaved kids! Posted: 11/3/2009 5:29:31 AM
My child is 10 and if I were in the same situation I would rather keep him in the garden or at home, if the only other choice was him being around a kid that is desperate for any attention and so misbehaves. If his father and mother don't communicate about their childs behaviour maybe they are blissfully unaware (or ignoring the fact) as to what is going on with their child? If no one is telling them as they are leaving him outdoors to play so they don't have to be 'parents' to him and spend time with him, how would they know? Some parents will put a naughty childs behaviour who is desperate for some love and guidance down to 'its just their age' or 'boys will be boys' or 'being rough wil toughen them up' but it needs nipping in the bud now.

This is going to be a great night, I am planning to get there a bit earlier than normal, as it gets packed out with so many people in there when it is a tribute night. If the car park at the venue is full just past there, there is a health centre car park in the fork of the road so you can park your car on there (it's free to park too) love ub40 wish this was nearer 4 me Paws4thought - Why not see if there are any similar events taking place that are local to you? If so arrange a meet night for people to come along to in your area. Check the hosting / party rules and email the event moderator if you need any further help with anything.

Dark Temptation 77 I am in agreement with A touch of fate - i think a weekend meet in wolves is an absolutely fantasic idea - i am sure that they will be every bit as successful as the mid week meets in wolverhampton I am looking forward to a meet night where I don't have to get up the next day and go into work Talset50 where is this place sam The venue is just off the Merridale Road approx 1 to 1.5 miles from Wolverhampton City centre just through Chapel Ash going towards Bantock Park / Bradmore. Go onto the streetmap.co.uk website and enter the venue postcode which is WV3 0AD and you will see how far it is from the city centre. The yellow arrow shows the location of it on the map. If you get a bus, the bus stop is two minutes away from The Yew Tree pub at the bottom of Oak Street at the junction with Merridale Rd Temptingyoyo-jo Well am totally gutted your all partying as am not allowed to party until xmas at least if all goes well!!! Sorry you won't be making this meet night Jo but make a speedy recovery and have plenty of rest after your op and you can come out to play with us all soon

Great pictures, glad to hear you all had a good night in Penkridge on Wednesday. Sorry I was not able to come along but work has been manic and with the work being done on my house it resembles a war zone when I get back. I will come along to your next one though, see you on the 10th Jo

Msg 12 - It's always nice to see you all at the events too having a dance and a night out, beats stopping in and we have such fun! All we need now is a few more folk to come and wow us with a few songs and add their names to the list. I am thinking about a Christmas theme for the December karaoke, who would be up for that? Entirely optional of course, but it would be great to celebrate the party season with something a little different

~ UB40 Tribute Night Friday 20th November ~ Swan Pub, Tettenhall, Wolverhampton. WV6 9AA ~ Posted: 10/21/2009 4:15:16 AM
Just thought I would point the following out so there are no misundertandings on the night by people who say they cannot find us in there, as no one else had a 'happy birthday helium balloon' on their table in the venue I fail to see how people could not find us as it is such a visual thing ! Especially when it was specifically raised up for all to see. We will be meeting from 8.00pm in the pub and the tribute act will be on after 9pm and play two sets during the evening. So in order to secure seats we are meeting a little earlier. This event will be very popular as I am sure others can testify from the last one there. So please arrive early to ensure admission. There will be a large helium 'happy birthday' balloon sat in the middle of our table in the venue so any late comers can spot us in there with ease. You MUST make yourself known to us as we have no way of knowing who you are as we will have no name badges. Four weeks to go so get inviting all those people YOU want to meet and invite them to join us for some red red wine

Thanks for all your emails, I will reply to them later on today with the info asked in them. If you need to book hotels the postcode for the venue is WV6 9AA and the venue it is very near to the local 501 bus route which runs from the bus depot which is a few minutes walk from Wolverhampton train station and the coach station out to The Swan. that depends if the wall i prop up is still there and still available :D The wall is ready and waiting all you have to do is take the mic and that spot will be yours for the night

Wolverhampton Meet - Friday 16th October - Pictures & Comments Posted: 10/16/2009 10:18:15 PM
Where to begin.. first of all thank you to all those that came along to the Swan Pub last night for the Bob Marley tribute night. As you know, the tribute act didn't turn up which the pub announced at 9.10pm. I thought the staff were joking about him not coming at first but 'Bob' sadly wasn't to be, so the night somewhat changed to the one we had planned In place of the Bob Marley tribute they drafted in at very, very short notice a great guy who kept the crowd entertained for two sets and sang quite a few Bob Marley songs and others covers including Snow Patrol, UB40 etc.. I can only apologise that the original act didn't show up but obviously that was out of mine and the venues control, the agency who failed to supply the act were at fault. Thank you to all those who came and found us in there, we were sat on a very long table to the right of the dance floor. Myself and GliderGirl did make it clear on the pre meet thread that people would have to come and find us in there as it would be so busy. The metallic birthday balloon was put on the table to identify us to POF members in there last night and myself and two co hosts had glo sticks dangling off us so people would know who we were. There were no other balloons or people with luminous glo sticks in the venue as I checked. Despite all of the above and me not feeling 100% I did enjoy the night. Although it turned out very different to the one I thought we were having, we made the best of it. Thank you to GliderGirl for co hosting with me and for getting everyone up dancing last night. to all those who stayed until the end, and thanks for all your positive comments and support last night. I will upload the pictures I have later on today when I get home from work but there are not many due to the lack of space in the venue as it was so packed out. For those that asked me last night - the links for the next events I am hosting are below Karaoke & Social Night - 10th November http://forums.plentyoffish.com/datingPosts13229150.aspx UB40 Tribute Night - 20th November http://forums.plentyoffish.com/datingPosts13271724.aspx Hope to see you all at an event soon and enjoy the rest of your weekend
