Up the creek without a vessel
Sad news.
I discovered tonight that the globe in Aberdeen has made itself into a pretentious lunchtime eatery. For many months, this has been the venue for #rafting.
Rafting started out as a massive burger and a pint on a Friday lunchtime (when i worked with Fifth Ring) where some of us would commandeer a table and have a little bit of lunch and chat. One day a random guy approached our table and rather bizarrely asked "are you guys white water rafters?" and so "rafting" was born. Over the months, more people joined in. Largely Aberdeens digital/web people. It became an event. It has become legendary.
Tonight it has become clear that #rafting is homeless. We need a new venue so I put it to all rafters past and present that we need to agree on a new location.
Initial suggestions from me are The Howff or The Prince of Wales but other places may be more suitable. If you've been rafting, this is your time to fire the flare gun in the direction of our future.
Get your life jackets on, grab a paddle and let's give #rafting a future.
