Bad news folks, the liverpool board is soon to be no more as the building it's in is condemmed :eek: We have until next Thursday to salvage what we can :'( :'(
 
For fucks sake, I just heard this. Is it asbestos or something? And is that why I've had a chest infection since its inception?
Unbelievable, I'm close to tears.
 
The chest infection is due to your dodgy student diet of cold kebabs and draughty bedsits. The fact the building is condemmed is due to it being rotten from the foundations up. probably.

Next tuesday is the last big session, all welcome.

I eat a healthy organic diet thankyou Andrew but granted sleeping on the department floor doesn't help!

I'd like to extend that invite to anyone wanting to come down. Will go for drinks in town after it if people are keen with the option of a spare room in my house and a space in my bed for any particularly strapping young lads ;)

If you can close a Captains of Crush #3, the latter part of that offer has already been cemented.
 
The building is being renovated, not demolished. Should be though.

The board will be reborn. It will be rebuilt, but this time harder, stronger and more powerfully.
 
I'm well gutted. We need to get Johhny G down to send project Z before we are forced to dismantle!

Will definitely be there Tuesday. I suppose we'll have to find somewher to store all the panels/joists/tnuts/holds now :-\

We ain't gonna have time to get them out mate. Priority is getting the holds and bolts out, maybe the panels if we can store them. Hopefully the whole co-op should turn up on Tuesday to help strip it, except Donnelly who's getting drunk in Thailand at the moment.

We're on the case for a new venue. It must be done.
 
Sorry to hear about your board problems guys. Chappers has been banging on about how great it is for ages.

I was hoping to get over there at some point - hope you find a new venue and manage to recover as much of the current set up as poss. good luck with the dismantle

This is probably no use to you but if you are desperate to find some storage for your boards until a new venue is found then I can offer storage for as long as you want.
The problem is I'm not especially near being in Tod (near Bridestones), but if you can get the boards over here I'll keep them for as long as you want.
Like I say probably no use to you, but thought I'd offer.
 
Nice one Nik, Mark has a van that we can fit all the panels in and maybe some of the timber save the giant 6 metre roof beams. I'll ring him tomorrow and see if it's possible!
 
Nik, that's real generous of you thanks. I'm not sure what plans have been made as I've been otherwise engaged, but your offer is much appreciated.
