We're OK- they're coming home in a canoe, singing with the locals, and playing guitar and banjo

 

I have managed to brighten the snap up a tad..

 

Uh-oh, they're soooo drunk now, an email landed in *my* box. I'd say it's a 'before and after'. Looky here!!!

 

Sorry boss...for being late...I shall check on them in the morning to make sure all is calm...


and as for the pic...genius...at least they are enjoying themselves...

 

Looks like all of them...and its only 12.15pm!!

 

Wownow there is a crowd...and Phoenix...all them glasses indeed...

 

Looks like a good time was had by all. Will definitely go next year.

 

Delicate is definatly the word
Altho I think SGUK was pretty bad too lol

This is what happens when half of your 14 pints are drunk before a meal!

I'll upload some pics shortly, I didnt take any at the meal as we were heading straight out to a bar afterwards which is not the place for a D200

However I did get a few nice ones in at the pub we all congregated in after we arrived in Birmingham

you will be pleased to know theres already talk of arranging more frequant events in different locales, possibly with on in the Spring

Special thanks to Boyce for all the hard work mate, corker of a night
The lovely ladies at Locantas for putting up with us all night
And to the dedicated CF guys who turned up and made it a cracking event, nice way to roll into the holidays I say

Lets not repeat the Archive bit incident next time though!

 

Oh no! There wasn't a load of shop talk was there? I went out for lunch with some mates from work last week and we got into a heated debate about the pros and cons of Vista, looked like a right bunch of nerds.

 

Looks like a great time had by everyone - and I am LIKING all those empties lined up on the table...

Pissed off that I couldn't go, but am in the throes of desperately trying to save my marriage - and I can't see a jolly boys' outing going down too well at the minute - especially since I ****ed off three times in the past week to see Slayer, Peeping Tom and Tool

Not been around much lately, due to aforementioned marital strife and being mega busy at work - hope to be able to get back to posting again in the next couple of weeks

 

Probably for the best you didn't go then Zeb. Good luck with salvaging the marriage.

 

Just got back, after a 7 hour train journey

Definitely up for next time, but somewhere closer.

Thanks to Boyce for arranging the event and to the lads for a cracking time and to Mick for providing indepth information on what a Donar Kebab is

 

Looks like a stonking night indeed, Guys. Well done to all who took part - spesh to Boyce for the hard graft to get it on it's feet.

Hey AJ and Ryan - now I understand why some of those "convos" we had last night were, erm... less than lucid and more on the lairy (sp?) side ??!!

Great stuff Guys

 

Wow! Cracking night.

It was great to meet you all. I am Looking forward to the next one already.

Sorry for missing breakfast guy's but I just couldn't get to sleep 'till 4am due to the *loud* wind noise (outside my room ).

Woke about eleven, had a quick shower and walked to the bus depot. It took over an hour, but i did stop in Tesco for some breakfast (Phoenix- the kebab place was open when i passed it the second time ) and had a nose around the lovely German Christmas markets.
As luck would have it, there was a bus waiting in the depot which was virtually empty, so they said I could hop on that and arrived home 2 hours early.

Brilliant, roll on the next one.
