That Also Ran made it.

Well, for the time being. I could think of a few more things, but I got there late and left early, so I probably missed what everyone else thought was the best!

Walking, alone, into a room full of people and immediately being greeted by a familiar face *waves to Abi* then being given a huge hug by Ashley. smiley - loveblush

The one difference about this meet from the others I have been to, as I have said somewhere else, is the fact that this particular venue made mixing and mingling easy. However, can you book some more cheerful bar staff next time? smiley - cheers
smiley - bluefish

Quite a lot of good ones, many of which follow the form "Meeting [insert name] and having a lovely chat." The list is long.

But *best* memory? No contest.

Meeting Mina.

Coming second wasn't bad. We were taken in by the Mina blob - but then every team except Mina's apparently was, too.

I have so many wonderful memories of the meet, that it seems smiley - weird to choose one above the rest...

However, the image of Mark trying to get out of the wrong doors of the Tube on the way home is one which will stay with me for a *very* long time...

Witty Ditty

Oooh - should I?

*thinks for a bit*

Ah, hell, yeah...

On the tube, and I'm having a lovely chat with Mark and Peta and their stop comes up. Peta gets out of the carriage, but Mark stands patiently in front of the other doors waiting for them to open, which of course they don't...

Cue Peta laughing on the platform and me trying to point Mark to the open doors behind him, with everyone else in the tube wondering what on smiley - earth is going on smiley - smiley
