I had to buy another cable for my camera through eBay so that I could download the photos (which I did at 1.00am this morning).
Here we go....
Andy (Blacksword) front left, me (sigod), with beard, Phil (rugby
shirt), and obscured Chris (Syzygy), Alan (Chopper), front right and a
partially obscured Richard (richardh) behind Chopper.

Drunk and disorderly - (from left to right), Phil, Goose, a partially obscured Trouserpress (sorry squire ), Chopper, a grinning Syzygy, Sean Trane, Richardh and Blacksword
Sean & Richard listen to Blacksword's theories upon the much
maligned Phil Collins and why he is way better than Carl Palmer
(shortly before they stabbed him in the eyes with their forks and left
his lifeless body hanging from the railings outside)...

Trouserpress (in hat) - frightened bunny rabbit caught in headlights.
Please note Goose on the left with handgun (concealed under napkin)
about to shoot out the lights so that we might get out of the Curry
house without paying. Richardh, Sean & Chopper smile
knowingly at camera.

These are the shots that include the most people.
Once again I'd like to say how much I enjoyed the evening and I hope
those gathering on the 18th have a similar night (minus the hookers and
police escort that we all enjoyed after the pub I would assume).
It was great to meet you guys.

Well, we definitely want the hookers!

Thanks guys, it's a pleasure to see you all having fun and to read your funny comments.
It seems that the first (UK) convention was a success, now we'll see if the first european one will be as good.
Who said that Internet isolates people? |
I'm only sorry I can't make the meeting on the 18th. It was wonderful
exchanging stories, anecdotes, opinions, etc, face to face.
The evening just wasn't long enough.
Have a great time in the Hague.
|
Yes, you will miss us.
But there will be other meetings.
Why not in France?

let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword

a question: will there be instruments available? I can hardly put my Bechstein into the car, and Friede's drums will not fit into the car either. we can bring a Roland keyboard and some congas along though. anyone else bring along some instruments?

Looks like you all had a good night, I would have probably joined you if I wasnt in Birmingham and had absolutely no access to the net (  ) so had no idea it was happening. Oh well let me know when the next UK edition of prog curry nights is and I'm there.

Spending more than I should on Prog since 2005
