Forum 3rd Birthday Meet - Manchester, 19th November 2011

[Northerner]

Just got in! 🙂 Hope everyone else is safely home and tucked up in bed! Great to meet everyone! Really nice surprise to see you there as well Dodger! Pictures in the morning when my brain has recovered a bit 😉

Well, I had another brilliant time meeting all the people in Manchester. The pub was a really nice venue - and good move to commandeer that room whoever made the decision! There were some faces very familiar to me by now, but always a pleasure to meet again (even if it's only a week apart Paul and missus! - What will you do next weekend??), and it was lovely meeting some people for the first time - I always feel as though I know you already!

Here are the pictures (only a few - I'm not Shelley!):

Paul was particularly proud of his Movember, until we decided it should be called a 'Jason King' and his missus googled it!

I'm pleased most people don't mind their pictures taken as it shows what a good-looking bunch of people we are, but totally understand and respect it if someone doesn't want theirs taken 🙂

Thank you to everyone who made me feel welcome.

Was great chatting and hearing your experiences and knowledge, and meeting new people I hadn't seen before 🙂

Not quite sure what I'm gonna do next weekend.

And the pics are great shame Paul didn't notice that slug on his face before the picture was taken LOL.

Fear not ypauly'snurse, I'm an expert and can tell you there is no chance whatsoever that your man will ever look like Peter Wyngarde, even when he's as old as PW must have been at the time he was playing JK.

And FWIW - Alexandra Bastedo (who was in 'The Champions' around the same time) also had a moustache ........

Miaowwwwwww

Nothey is "sort of" there - look at his shadow in the 2nd picture and his reflection in the glass of the painting in the same shot! You can also see a little of him in the mirror behind Dodger.

Weak but ...

It was Ypauly who noticed all the tables put together in that room and he kept an eye out for when the people sat there went. Very, very good call as the pub got really crowded with football goers and then those escaping the cold and Christmas Market in Albert Square.

Ah! Nice one Paul! 🙂 Sounds like you've been watching too much Blade Runner Marg! 😉
