You forgot to mention we swapped handbag details too!Originally posted by Zippy View PostWhen we met up in London we PM'd a brief description and mobile numbers to each other.
Just wander round the pub asking if anyone else here is in IT - you'll make loads of new chums
I hope it all goes well anyway, we've discovered that its only the women (and Owlhoot) who can be bothered to make the effort, but we have a laugh anyway.I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

Another 'might be tempted' here (although leaning towards most likely), and probably only for a few pints and leave at a reasonable time being the boring family man that I am now a days. Where is that thumb print on forehead smiley.
That is of course if you welcome the not so regular posters/ noobs.
What has happened to Mr Cranium lately? Is he coming?

Carry a copy of Computer Weekly if you don't have a distinctive handbag

You may not have heard "CUK" spoken, but it's actually pronounced "kook".Originally posted by Muttley08 View Post.. How do you know who's the CUK people? or is it that obvious to spot the IT bunch??
So just go around asking people "Are you a kook?"Work in the public sector? Read the IR35 FAQ hereComment

What if I don't read computer weekly.
And not the sort of chap that is into bags (hand, man, ball or other)?
I may just turn up though - although slightly worrying meeting a bunch of people from the electronic super highway.
I have noted that I already have a common interest with browne issue - home brew beer.Comment
