andy carpal tunnel Registered: 10/06/1999 Posts: 5914 Loc: Wivenhoe, Essex, UK	For "organising" the London meet today. I had never meet up with people I had meet online before (except seeing Hugo from afar at an MX5 owners club meet years ago) and I had a great time. Great to see Hugo, Mike and John make it as well. Also surprised to see Jon Bauer there as our "token" American, great to meet you in the flesh Jon. Looking forward to the Euro meet. Hope I got everyone's names right...

I don't anybody else did Yeah, the pub isn't the ideal enviroment for my 10D, so I was camera-less, must buy a small second camera (if only there was a small one that did 800 ISO).

Roger carpal tunnel Registered: 18/01/2000 Posts: 5680 Loc: London, UK	Roger and Jon Bauer took some pictures. Unfortunately, all of mine are pretty worthless. No point in uploading them. Maybe Jon's got some better ones. _________________________ -- roger

Roger carpal tunnel Registered: 18/01/2000 Posts: 5680 Loc: London, UK	For "organising" the London meet today. And thanks, everyone, for coming. For reference, the full (IIRC) list of attendees was: From the BBS: andy, h_blake, jbauer, tman From empeg: Hugo (altman), Mike C (mac), John Ripley (john) And: Myself and my g/f. We met in the Porterhouse near Covent Garden, and sampled their excellent selection of beers (they have a beer menu), before moving on to the Prince of Wales (I think). Unfortunately, I'd forgotten about the rugby, so it was a little tricky finding a pub that wasn't showing it. We then went to a really good Italian restaurant, called Sapori, on Drury Lane, and a few of us went for a cheeky pint after dinner, while the others went home. _________________________ -- roger

jbauer veteran Registered: 08/05/2000 Posts: 1429 Loc: San Francisco, CA	Yes, I took 2 pictures, but they are on my camera that I won't be able to hook up to my PC til I get home, which will be this Saturday. In the meantime, I need to go to Munich, Belgium, and then Milan. Any empeggers in these 3 that want to grab a brew? - Jon
