It was indeed - can't believe Boffo and Ginge managed to crash into each other while staring lovingly into each others eyes...

Cracking evening, despite the Arctic chill. Lovely to see you all (and if I didn't actually speak to you, hopefully next time). Home at 2.10 due to acts of South West Trains (it ran late & I missed the nearest stop to home because I had to walk the bike through the train, short platform and I was in the rear, wasn't warned in time...grrr). I'm not getting much in the way of cycling-based endorphins at the mo, but feel better for that.

Redvee was double booked with a works social p!$$-up. If the original date of the 11th had been kept to then I would have been there.I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.0 -
Was nice to meet everyone, all I can say is my head still hurts a bit :shock:
the underground actually worked so easy trip back. Though anyone know how to fix routers? The one in the house is dead so no wirless network...
Have a great xmas everyone0 -
Was a great night, i think my position as most drunk person is pretty safe, and for those of you I didn't manage to wrestle under the mistletoe consider yourself lucky, Attica youre such a good kisser
tiz true I took JG out, I was quite surprised to find my self on top amonsts a pile of bikes because quite frankly I didn't remember even leaving the pub, still I did manage to rip a couple large holes in my new overshoes and lose a light, and the last of my dignity.

what a great evening thanks guys and gals for making me feel so welcome, I had a thoroughly jolly time, so I didn't get to chat to everyone time just seems to fly!
cheers for organising it again LIT, somehow I didn't get to say thanks and goodbye, but thanks.
I made it back to Paddington with only a few slight detours en route :-) how I managed to actually get lost in paddington itself i'll never know, although did have a strange conversation about Brooks saddles with some random dude who thought I would be the expert on all train time related issues, soley because I had a bike with me!
It was great to but all the names to faces and well done CJCP for winning the converted trophy abd being a jolly nice chap
well done ITB who was by far the drunkest when I left at 10.30, so who knows what happened after that! (and thaks for the champers, nice touch)
I fear there was a lot of beer induced chat about riding lots of miles and doing lots of sportives next year :roll:FCN 8 mainly
FCN 4 sometimes0 -
Pictures???? :twisted:0

Eeek. I am having flashbacks.... what have I let myself in for?0 -
I have pictures and for large sums of cash I won't post them.
I'm tempted to take some snaps of my impressive cuts & bruises, the golf ball sized swelling i'm now sporting on my hip, looks a treat

I had a lovely evening, and easily drank more than I have since the summer all in one hit ...... (though that isn't saying much!)
Thanks Liv for organising such a lovely evening, and I'd like to say what a thoroughly nice bunch of friends I have made here in the last year.
Gregs - what a funny rice standoff I witnessed.
ITB - you do get the "most drunk" prize, though I would like to give Biondino a special mention for managing to fall ove rthe back of the sofa and end up lying down with a nearly-full pint of beer still intact - now that takes real skill
Happy weekending allEmerging from under a big black cloud. All help welcome0 -
I want to say "Yes I am home, whey" and it was a great day (since I managed to get to the lunch via alot of extra London).
Great to meet you all, and I promise to bring down Charlie next time so you can add my scalp to your trophies (most humours and easy pass perhaps )
Also remind me to sleep sometime in the week before a party too, that way I might not start falling half asleep during the night. Nothing to do with too much beer, not at all, honest.
And thanks again Cafewanda for the sleeping room place
EDIT: Thanks Lins too for checking I was ok, just tired and drunk honest :P"This area left purposefully blank"
Sign hung on my head everyday till noon.
FCN: 11 (apparently)0 -
ITB, you still my no 1 you drunken sosser
Lins we'll swop bank details as agreed ok?
Hisoka - no probs.
To those I didn't speak to. Next time.
Moonio, there was a rather lovely picture with....... but he begged for it to be deleted, didn't you :twisted:0 -
That was a lovely day. Good to see so many people there. Like others have said the time seemed to whizz by and I didn't get to speak with as many as I would have liked.
Liv, thanks again for getting this sorted. I echo Mr 66's sentiments.
ITB, how did you get so damaged? That was the gentlest crash ever!
CJ, sorry. Didn't mean to scare you about the marmotte. It'll be fine, a walk in the park for a man of your calibre.
Merry xmas all0
