Well, in my experience as an original taster of H2G2 togetherness, this was a hit! Two thumbs fresh as far as I'm concerned. Okay, so I missed the softball/french cricket/blind mans buff but I made it to drinks before anyone! And I thoroughly recommend anyone to go out drinking at some time. Drinking is fun! Losing at quizzes is also the way to go! Bloody good fun. Thanks go to Abi for being a thoroughly bloody good chappess!!!! Thanks to all the staff too. Good fun. I'll go sober up now.........

Excellent time, and met a few researchers that I have never spoken to on here before (it being my first meet) that were thouroughly nice and well worth the walk round the entire circumference of Hyde park to find the bandstand 
And I was a demon at softball as well 
Thanks

Losing quizzes is an art. It shows you're actually taking the point of the meet seriously - alochol!!!! SO in that respect, the so called "winners" obviously missed out something somewhere Oh, if only everyone got only 6 right Thanks for the quiz though Abi!
Oooo, I do believe I'm sober now. Must have benn the squash match this morning that worked its wonder. Anyone seen Pastey this fine afternoon? *peers about*

Oh phoo... it sounds like I missed a good time. 
I was a tad jetlagged yesterday and didn't arrive at Hyde Park until waaaaay too late. 
But you had nice weather for it.
Thanks

) Thank you everyone!

I think we sniggered him out of the conversation. I feel bad now 
Thanks
coelacanth Posted Jun 29, 2003
It's OK. He's not stomped off very far. Only to his own journal. We can easily follow.
Thanks
Jim the Wonder Llama (back from yonder) Posted Jun 29, 2003
Okay, but I'm changing my sniggering to a muffled snicker every now and then.
*muffled snicker*
