h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

D'you know, I *still* haven't warned the pub!

Sod it, I can't be bothered to stop somewhere in town, find food, sit down to eat it, and then go on to The Font. I'm just gonna come straight there and give the Font food another try. I seem to remember their Soup of the Day was always good.

That explains a lot. When I visited last year I thought that was the guest beer.

The food in Font is always good!

In the words of the great Mike Harding:

I'm starving, me. I'll eat it...

Better than the alternative.

See you all later.

Just over two hours and I'll be outta work and there!

I've warned them a few of us are coming, and they should have the lift switched on

. Going beyond the call of duty again, Pastey?

I aim to be there around the same time.

See you later.



MMF

We're sat downstairs!

Have much fun!

... and don't get too and

Lines them up:



It's a cheap round when you can't make it

Anyone planning on turning up should wait until after my round. Thanks.

So different knowing people's faces and voices. I kinda feel a little more resposible, now I know some of the people responsible for moderation.


Ah, bcks.

Ah, but no moderators were present tonight.

However, you did meet the Deity In Charge, or Dic for short

Was good to meet you though Bob!

Make sure to invite me to any "mini guide entry research" on Manchester bars that was mentioned. I may be busy on a given day, but let me pick a day in a given week and I'll be there!

Icy it's a cheap round when you can make it. Font is bloomin' cheap.

It was a good night, though I'm distressing sober. Ah well, I was the filling in a Phil/Pastey sandwich.

Apologies for running off. The prawn pad thai I'd eaten didn't appear to be entirely kosher, and I ended up being violently ill in a ginnel...

I have to admit I think the kebab I had for lunch didn't do my digestive system much good either.

Time was spent on the loo this morning.

I told you kebabs are a bad plan.

'T'was verily good. I'm pleased I mooted the idea, what with being in Manchester etc. and god to have a mini-meet which allows researchers to chat and circulate. Well. Except me, because once I've found a seat, it's safer to stay sat sitted, and let everyone else play musical chairs.

Looking forward to the next one.

And, Pastey, thanks for arranging the venue. I'd have been stuffed if I'd tried to do it...



MMF

You're very welcome! T'was great to see everyone
