Hi All
What an evening - again - as ever. Good to see everyone, shame for all the guys that couldn't make it.
I scarpered well early this morning to miss the crush on the train, things are still a bit silly out on the roads apparently.
I think I may well take up professional gambling and move to Bristol - that's twice now he he ;-)

Big thanks to everyone for a great event. I was surprised at the turn out, despite the weather and was tempted myself to turn back at one point but am so glad I didnt. Thanks Matt for dragging us all into the casino
I actually managed to make breakfast at 6.30am :eek: .... on the way to bed
Once again, I have a number of class photos, yet sadly none of Zak dancing. I heard at one point he was straggling the guitarist of the band! Is this true or pure fiction? And how did the Harry Potter bunch get on
Yep many thanks to Matt and all the Existem/A4U team for a superb event. Thanks for the black Sambucas Frostie, I told you it would end up messy if I had those
I'd like to add my thanks to all the team for a great night - my first A4U event and it lived up to all expectations and well worth all the fun getting there! Hi to everyone I met there and looking forward to the next one.
Thanks Matt for a great evening - great to see so many there despite the weather!
Thanks also to Clarke, Jude and Hayley who accompanied me to get a copy of Harry Potter at Midnight - thank god for Tescos or we would have been queuing at Waterstones for about an hour!! I have since read about half of the book - I'm praying for a happy ending
Oh and finally a BIG thank you to Dixon for giving me a lift on Staurday so I didn't have to brave the train chaos
Thanks for a great event! It was good to meet so many people and it was a great turnout, despite the poor weather. Thanks to all at Existem for arranging - I look forward to the next one!

I have offending pictures (of the dancing, didn't see any straggling either)
DESPITE the 7-hour trip going there from London
and
DESPITE the 2.5 hour, standing up (avec a crippling headache/hangover) train journey from hell back to London
I had a great time on Friday! Was very good to catch up and meet new folks and I'll be back for the next one!
Now, normally I don't rise to the temptation of self-pity, but OH MY GOD. Total travel time of 12 hours, severe sleep deprivation (who decided on the casino being a preferred option over bed?), a stonking hangover and a shirt covered in whisky and coke - I only have the weather/First Great Western to blame for one of them!
Thanks a lot Matt et al for a great evening's/night's/morning's entertainment. Though damn you all for how I still feel now (Monday morning!)
Yep definitely a good evening. Thanks to Matt Claire et al. Great idea having the 'games' broke up the evening nicely. Some great prizes from the sponsors too, I need to thank AWIN and Currys for the Tom Toms, which Chris and I won. That bloody picture had me running around for ages, still it was well worth it
The band were very good, especially the last group of artists, who kinda took
