Can you imagine a Fairground hut wired back to front. It was built to get transported. Some wall etc came apart. Plugs & sockets around the walls BUT 😱. Plug tops alive & Skt dead. It did not get a pass. 3 pins live in a field :(. It was a long time ago o_O

Sounds like a normal asian standard lol
 
Good few hours and really excellent to meet everyone. We should do things like this more often.
Hope everyone had a safe trip home.

Benny G took rhe photo so isn't in it which is sad.
Great bunch of folk.
 
Can’t believe we forgot to take another photo with @Benny G on! Too busy gabbing and putting the world to rights. Just literally got in. Been a long day but very enjoyable, even if @Vince_UK was doing his best to get me inebriated! Here’s to next meeting, apparently I have to organise one in the Leeds area. Watch this space. 🙂

A veritable roque's gallery, that! :D Looks fun! 😎

Oh, had just about written this earlier & about to press post reply when the phone rang! My brother told me my sister had passed away last night!

I forgot about it & only just remembered. I’m posting it now as that was how I felt at the time!
