So sorry to have missed you @muddlethru :( We were sat in the raised section just after the entrance. Glad to hear you had a good reminisce around the Old Town as compensation 🙂 Hopefully, there will be more opportunities and we'll devise a better plan for recognition! 🙂

Great to meet friends old and new, putting the world to rights 🙂 thanks to all who came, always such a pleasure 🙂 Sorry to hear your journey home was such a pain, Susan :(

Here's my picture (unfortunately taken after @Janine had left): L-R @pottersusan, @Mrs Mad Ronin and @Robin 🙂

Thanks for sharing your photo Alan - Looks like there's a scrumptious feast 😛 on the table there🙂
 
3 of us had Wiltshire ham & cheese panini (2 with salad and 1 with chips) and a Chicken, avocado and bacon? salad i think it was 🙂

Just received an email that my tshirt has just been shipped, so I think it's reasonable to suspect that it won't be arriving before the Meet, unfortunately! :(

Ah that's a shame Northie - next time maybe?!
 
Good to meet you, Janine, sorry I only overlapped with you for a short while.
 
Well I never . Looking at the picture Austen and I were sitting just below you at the door. See the lady in the window that's not me they must have come in just after we left. I walked through front to back passed the loos three times and never knew you were only a few feet away from us all the time. Next time I'll wear a big hat or something then you can shout out " We're over 'ere." Can't stop laughing. We are a right pair my husband and I.

So near, yet so far! 😱 🙂 Picture was taken at around 1pm.
 
We left just after 12 o'clock . Had to get back to go to a family get to-gether . They are going to have a good laugh when I tell them . As you say , so near, yet so far. We only live in Warsash so Hadn't travelled very far. not far away.

It's quite encouraging that we look like normal people :D:D
Perhaps Northie could inflate the DF with helium😱 to make her more visible. (with a bit of luck she might explode😛)
