    Good to see I made a memorable impression
    Aww, I'm sorry matey...I'm always rubbish at remembing everyone's names. Sorry not to mention you (and any others)

    Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

        Actually, those 2 people were our real life virtual avatars, which we send out from time to time, whilst our real selves are immersed in World of Woecraft.

        Nice to meet you as well Churchill

          What's weird is I can hardly remember anyone's real names, the aliases have stuck in my head for ever it appears.

          Don't remember if I said cheerio - the sambucas went straight to the homing instinct part of my brain, and the rest is a blank.

            Glad it went well, my friend. Looks like the turn-out was as good as expected and from the posts in here it sounds like a cracking time was had by all.

            Rule #76: No excuses. Play like a champion.

              I avoided the sambucca so remember saying cheerio. Tube ride home draws a blank though

                Good evening, nice putting some avatars to faces. Though I thought Churchill would be bigger ;-)

                I wonder if you're who I think you are. I'll send that email with the pic soon.

                Fully agree with all of the above!
                Well, the dust has settled on the 4th CUK do - I had a blast, v interesting to see you lot - will probably arrange to meet earlier/stay out for longer next time - perhaps a visit to the Leccy Ballroom!
                Cheers for the thanks btw folks - although it was nothing - just posting a couple of polls and standing back to watch the fireworks.

                Right - only thing left is to set a couple of people up on the facebook group - I have a couple of PMs already re this - and upload the photos there. Owlhoot - probably best if you post yours there too.

                    It sounds though you all had a great night......if I wasn't so far away I'd enjoy coming to one......

                    But then I'm so shy and retiring maybe not.....
                    It's Deja-vu all over again!
